A venue from an entirely different era. You'll half expect to see Frank Sinatra nursing a whiskey around a bistro table, but you're far more likely to catch a Noise Pop headliner or a burlesque revue. Read more

Founder Agostino Giuntoli left Tuscany, Italy in 1922 at the age of 19 and sailed to America. He spent five years working his way to San Francisco and found a job as janitor at the famed Palace Hotel.

Been here 5+ times
If going to a Tainted Love weekend show, buy tickets at least 1.5 weeks in advance. They always sells out, and you want to get tickets mailed to avoid waiting in the long will call line.

Excellent place to see a show, very cool atmosphere. Hard to park around here though.
Ian WalterMay 10, 2015
Awesome old timey venue if you can find a good band to see here. It's like going back to the 20s.

The definition of a swank, cavernous nightclub long before the Prohibition craze. Diverse, musical events galore. The back of the room is way too loud even if a plane landed you can't hear anything.

Ask for a Bimbo's matchbook at the coat check counter.

30s style club with lounge tables and multiple bars.

Owned by the family of sf that owns just about everything else. So expect high prices for sure (1 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

During special events the fishtank behind the bar has a 4 inch human in it. Only special events because 4 inch humans that beach underwater have an expensive hourly rate!

Another small, historic, pretty venue in SF with some good shows and overpriced drinks. Parking sometimes a challenge.
Daniel SalinasAugust 15, 2011
A great space for music, though parking in North Beach is always a bit of a gamble.

Late 20s retro music venue, awesome vibe.

Visit Saul at the back bar; he does water colors of the bands while they play.

Try the Tiramisu - Classic dessert at a Sam Francisco classic venue.

Women's bathroom is a 1930's throw back.
Luis MendozaApril 22, 2012
Don't take photos or video record inside. They are nazis and will save you the embarrassment.

Awesome classy joint!

Sexy looking, but overpriced and pretentious for what it is. Maybe a good place to host a corporate party.
