- MMichaelSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoTook my wife here for after dinner drinks; this was a very posh setting, and the ambiance harkens to the modern take on the prohibition era as the photos will elude to. It's loud but not too loud; we were able to have a conversation, albeit on the noisier side, but still intimate enough to bring that special someone. The drinks were great; I tried the classics and their takes on the classics. It was very well balanced, and their takes on them were well done, enough to know it's a classic but with a very unique touch. Where you know it's a classic, but something else is there to make you wonder how they could play with the flavors but make it unique. Service was friendly and attentive, and drinks came out fairly quickly given the number of people, and it's a cocktail bar! Just be prepared to pay a pretty penny; the drinks add up quickly as you can enjoy several given on how fantastic they tasted.More infoThe Roosevelt RoomPrice: Expensive• Cocktail Bar• Downtown•4.8
