    Nice cocktails and drink menu as well as a few food items. Both outdoor and indoor seating was comfortable. Staff was very helpful and came to check on our table several times. Scannable QR code at each table to view menu items and order at the bar. We also really enjoyed the photo booth and pool table. Overall very nice experience!

    Liked the vibe, came here with a team and the music was good and drinks were good variety. I'm docking them for the fact that my backpack got caught in a glue trap that was under the couch I was sitting on, which was gross and now my backpack is all sticky. Be careful, this place could use a bit more TLC.

    Potatoes were so good. The perfect crisp. Went with my partner and really enjoyed what I got, but would not go back because there were almost no vegetarian options.

    It’s like hanging out in the living room of someone cooler than you. The cocktails are always good, though of the 7-8 I’ve tried only 2-3 have been great, the others perfectly fine. Great place to start out the night or a perfect night cap bar

    We came across this little spot by accident when walking through the Mission district. Loved the bar staff, so friendly and helpful, and they had two delicious non alcoholic cocktails on the menu (one with basil and the other with passionfruit). The decor inside is dreamy, with dark blue walls and beaded lighting. There was a cute little photo booth inside for us to take pics! Also a great pool table. Loved the ambience and will defo be back here again.

    Absolutely amazing!! What a beautiful space and the most delicious food I've ever had in my entire life. Chef Ben is a food genius and is pumping out the most creative and inspiring dishes I've ever seen. Really groundbreaking work. Visually breathtaking and an adventure for your mouth! So many different flavors it's like traveling around the world plate by plate. And the chef makes everything from scratch! The amount of work he puts into just making the vinegars and marinades is astounding. This is the perfect spot to take a date, take your parents, hang out with old buds, hang out by yourself ~ perfect for any occasion!

    Enjoyed the cocktails, good recommendation from the staff. Fun photo booth in the back, pool table. A bit noisy especially towards the back of the bar.

    THE best cocktails, vintage glassware, and ambiance around. The outdoor section is beautiful and a perfect place to chill out. PS try the Fried Chicken Sandwich and Pimento Cheese.

    45+ minutes + a reminder to get the drinks we ordered, and the place wasn't even busy. Maybe that's WHY it wasn't busy. The drinks were also exceptionally weak and bland. The place is really nice otherwise, pool tables are a notable aspect that stands out. Just don't hesitate to remind the bartenders about your drinks or you'll be left waiting your whole night.

    Impressive drink menu. Drinks about $14-16. The menu is listed online. Friendly staff. Plenty of seats at the bar, a couple of booths and couches. Outdoor seating available. They have a pool table and two pin ball machine near the door. Retro glasses and music gave the place a fun vibe.

    Name caught my own evil eye, so decided to walk in.. First impressions: surprised to see a door greeter checking ID's... but hey it's Friday on Mission in SF! I asked the door person if there's a kitchen and she mentioned that it's pub grub with some Asian infusion, something familiar yet unexpected, also excellent cocktails. Long bar with great overall aesthetics, 3 booths and several low tables with comfy looking lounge chairs, and a pool table. I post up at the corner of the bar furthest from the door. I scan a QR to see their menu which starts with their creative libations and ends with Amaro/Aperitif, with their food menu somewhere in the middle. I asked the bartender what they have on tap and he offered a tailored but respectable draft beer selection. I got the Fort Point Animal, which is a local offering great for any occasion(IPA, 7.5 ABV). As I had something to wet my whistle I went back to explore the food on their menu, lots of inviting options but what sang to me was the Orange Chicken "Wings" (they use boneless thigh meat instead of actual wings... 🤤). Knowing I also wanted to pair it with one of their above-mentioned 'excellent cocktails', I asked about their El Gruño, a mezcal + fernet + ancho chile liqueur base with strawb-balsamic, lemon, ginger to finish. The owner of the bar remarked they would pair very well together and banged one out for me. Oh man... upon first sip I knew I made the right choice. Once the food came out I was excited to dig in and take more meaningful sips of the elixir with it. Chicken was perfectly crispy while coated with the bruléed orange, evey bite with the kumquat ranch and scallions was balanced and as consistently tasty as the last, but when I washed it down with the El Gruño it was like a flavor match made in heaven. Highly recommended! I was very happy to be a member of the clean plate club. To top it all off I had to get the Go-Go Juice for some café raspb-vanille sweetness and just a little more liquor with aged rum. I was surprised to find it had a spiciness to it, but far from disappointed.. Exceptional spot, will come back with a date or small group.

    Their drinks are good, but last time I was there, multiple employees told me, without talking to each other, that I both could and could not park my bike inside. I understand they were having a busy night, but I felt unwelcome multiple times, which was a bummer. Tasty Mexican hot chocolate drink though.

    Nice cocktail place in the Mission. The only thing that is holding me back from giving it an additional star is that there is a pool table located near the bar stools and if you stand any where near it, you may get poked by the pool sticks from the people playing pool.

    At Devil Eye, we savored Devil's in the Details and Business Milk – both remarkable. Devil's in the Details blended bourbon, ginger, coffee liqueur, spiced passionfruit syrup, and lemon for a captivating fusion. The complex flavors worked seamlessly, resulting in a satisfying, intriguing drink. Equally impressive was Business Milk – an audacious mix of bruichladdich Islay scotch, black sesame, rums, mango, star anise, vanilla, chile, and lemon on the rocks. The unique combination showcased mixology at its best. The bartender's charm elevated the experience. Their skillful crafting of drinks and engaging demeanor, like playfully shaking in front of my camera, added an extra layer of enjoyment.

    Arrived on a Saturday afternoon with group of 10+ girls. Seating in back area is wonderful for a larger party. Excellent food and drinks. Ordered the spiked basil lemonade.. 10/10 great place to hang out with friends
