Lydia Berkennou: Class and perfect for special occasions. Love the big chair

Jennifer Chuang: look at the paintings on the wall. they are actually videos and they move very slowly. some only blink. i love it.

Shay M: Kirk and Jon are amazing. Both will crack you up and provide great service. Food was fair, a little pricey, but so worth it for the convenience and service.

Ben Lucier: Robert and Laurie are super friendly tenders of the bar! Say hi to them and tip 'em large!

Ben Lucier: You HAVE to try the Kraken! It's a black spiced rum and it takes like chocolate with a slow burn. It's also 94 proof. You won't regret it.

Amy Robinson: Great panoramic view of the city. Watch the fog roll in, drink cocktails and listen to the live piano.

Mike Davis: DO NOT GET THE FOURSQUARE MARTINI. It's teal.

@marycray: Gotta remember to go with out of town pals. Read more.

Analise Torrez: Nice cocktail bar with a good selection of beer and wine. Cocktails and happy hour is so good. If Aika is working, she’s the best tip her well.

Carmen: Revamped Swank. New design but same great vibe. Some favorite cocktails have been reimagined but are still delicious.

Kate Carey: Happy hour is actually happy 4 hours- from 3 until 7! The pinot prosecco is delish.
