    Chicken liver mousse
    Ray N.

    20 Spot had great ambiance. Sitting outside in the parklet on a warm sunny Mission evening is simply delightful: you can see all the people coming and going down 20th street. The drinks at 20 Spot are also good. The wine list is extensive, and I got a vermouth and soda that I really enjoyed. The food is great and fit the vibe of the season: we got a corn salad with peach and arugula that was a perfect summer salad. The chicken liver mousse was delicious, and I thought their sausage pizza was very tasty and crisp. I will definitely be back this summer!

    Lovely wine bar nestled in the Mission! Came for a Friday happy hour around 6 and there was still good indoor and outdoor seating. We ordered the Riesling (so sweet and delicious, like drinking grape juice which was what I wanted), Rose (crisp and refreshing), and the Zucchini Pizza (light and crispy crust, freshest veggies, good bite). They have patio seating, some couch/casual seating by the entrance, and more traditional tables / bar as you go farther back. The interior is such a good vibe for an evening bev - brick wall, low lights, fun posters, fun lanterns - it's both homey and trendy. Service was so so nice! Prompt in serving us and zero rush to stop vibing - a highlight!

    My friend suggested this little stop while we were in the area - it was my favorite spot of the day. We ordered the beets and beans - both were excellent. So much flavor, incredibly fresh, and vibrant. We all ordered a glass of wine, they had a great selection, everyone was happy with their selection. They have a little outdoor space that we sat in. Two little tables in the sun and a few covered tables. They also have a nice indoor space. The service was phenomenal. Everyone working there was friendly and everything came out quickly.

    Really nice wine bar! The ambiance was exactly what I was looking for -- vibey, aesthetic, chill. Ordered a bottle of champagne to celebrate a birthday and it was very worth and also very good. Would definitely recommend anyone who likes wine to check it out!

    If you're looking for a fancy wine bar with eclectic taste, mood lighting, capturing art, 20 spot is the place. I stopped by with a friend to share a bottle of wine. Keep in mind, it's tough to find a bottle under $50, it's not a dive bar. I really appreciated the variety of seating and I can't wait to go back to try the food. The space was dimly lit, small tables of two bar, seating and a lounge/couch area. I really appreciate the thought put into the art in the space. We ordered a bottle of wine to share, a red, it was really good and I appreciate the service. Our server was very kind, we were able to sit in the couch base, even though we were just two. The wine was really good. I had a really good time. I think it would be a fun spot to go with more friends. It's not too loud. It's a great place for a first date. They have quite the variety of wine so there's something you'll like! I can't wait to go back with friends and share a bottle.

    This place is SUCH a vibe! Definitely want to come back and try some food. Went with a girl friend on Friday night around 8 and got seated within 10ish minutes without reservation; it was definitely poppin' though. Ordered a bottle of the orange wine. Service was nice!

    This place is absolutely my vibe, one hundred percent. We were in town for pride and passed by. Casual outdoor tables basking in sunset light on a lazy summer evening, and a stylish interior. We glanced at the menu and decided heck yes. We shared the burrata salad with delicious stone fruits, the crudo with chilled Korean melon, corn pizza which was delicious and ended with the tres leches cake with apricot. Everything was delicious and the service was quick and kind without feeling fake. Would definitely recommend for a date. Another table next to us began as two friends catching up and more familiar passersby joined as the night went on, more wine coming out. Very cute neighborhood spot, and you get to people-watch the line at the ice cream spot across the street, if they're open Also their wine menu is quite good

    Pizza and ambiance

    We had an excellent dinner at 20 spot. The service was great and we tried both pizzas on the menu, which were excellent and "spot" on. We will definitely come back.

    I was walking down 20th to a friend's house with my headphones on, hoping not to get lost when I saw a sign that said "Records." my first thought was I miss Tower Records, and as I got closer, I heard the music. The 60s music and design reminded me of Austin, Texas. That was my draw, and I had to go in! The inside was grown up and relaxed but in no way kitschy. I felt like I had found my new hang-out spot. The woman I met (I forgot to ask her name) was charming and answered every question. I wanted to stay, have a drink and a nosh, and enjoy this place. I'm definitely coming back with friends...

Located in the legendary Mission District of San Francisco, this wine bar is a great spot to catch up with friends and enjoy small bites and yummy crafted cocktails. Their decor is very chic and I especially loved all of the hardware, glasses, tables, and benches. This place was styled by a great design artist. Even though the place was pretty packed and can be kind of noisy, I still felt very calm amongst all the healthy plants and loved the sophisticated 70s inspired glassware. Another great feature of this place is that you can buy most of the plants because they have some for sale so after a couple of cocktails, I was ready to redecorate my whole house with all the plants. I ordered a yummy Rose blend that was super crisp. Also enjoyed the Truffle Fungi! A delicious Shiitake and oyster mushrooms with parmesan and arugula on toasted bread. Their Spanish inspired potatoes were delicious with their dipping sauce. They have lots of gatherings there and DJ sets on the weekends. Lastly, a photographer would die to take pictures here. There is no bad shot as the design artist made sure every section of this cute wine bar was picture perfect. Loved all my photos and videos. I look forward to returning to this exquisite wine bar!

I love the decor of this space! It is definitely intentionally and tastefully decorated. Loved the lighting and plants. They had Lord of the Rings playing on the wall. The vibe is artsy, warm, a little dark, and overall a cool place to mingle. The bathrooms and tables were kept clean. I liked it that the DJ was live mixing. Getting a drink was fast and easy. The high top tables were a bit wobbly, so we spilled half a drink on there. The drinks are strong. I recommend going upstairs to sit instead if you want to hear your friends better. The tables are bigger up there too. The rooftop was closed off but I'd like to check it out sometime.

The people were laughing, the drinks were flowing. It smelled really good, which we would later find out was from the food especially that Mac and cheese. We started off with different wines, some that Tom recommended based on what we told him we didn't like or did like. He apologized for our previous experience and was genuinely a nice guy. Honestly it's very admirable for a business owner to take feedback to heart and want to incorporate it. Plus he's a really cool guy when you get to know him. The staff was busy running around but still made time to come check on us. Our final verdict is we came on a bad day. This time we got the actual Waystone experience. We finally got to try the chicken bites with a creamy aioli, fries with yogurt sauce, and the star of the show was the Mac and cheese. Tik tok did live up to the hype and we will have to come back for one of their jazz nights. Be warned this place gets busy! But it's worth it.

We were able to snag a seat at the bar after waiting a few minutes. Drinks: A nice selection of wines, vermouth cocktails and some beer and non alcoholic options availible. We ordered chilled bottles of sparkling red wine which was served in a bucket with ice which was a nice touch to keep it cool. Food: Tinned monkfish liver - nice and creamy, rich with mild flavor served with bread, crackers, potato chips and pickled peppers Tinned stuffed squid - very tasty, squid were cut into smaller pieces making it easy to pass around also served with the same bread, crackers, and potato chips Tortilla - a nice piece of egg and potato tortilla served warm on a slice of ciabatta, this was well seasoned and a generous portion size, was surprised it was served like an open faced sandwich made it a little bit difficult to cut up and share but tasty regardless Jamon con brie - similar to the tortilla served in a warm open faced sandwich, ham and brie were nice, a little greasy and salty Service was fine, walk up to the bar and place your order, they'll provide you with a number for food delivery to your seat. Water we grabbed a filled our glasses as needed. Plates were cleared relatively quickly when we were finished. Overall enjoyed El Chato, there happened to be some live music that evening which was fun but made for a pretty loud space. Food was solid nothing outstanding but a nice array of tin fish and tapas, liked the wine and vermouth options. A fun spot for girls night expect a crowd if you go earlier in the evening.
