I guess that I keep going back for more. The service was good. My eggs were mixed up but they were immediately switched over The ambiance game changer was when I found out for the first time that there was a bar -- on either side -- of the restaurant seating area. So, if you go for eating, you can go to the bar afterwards. THAT is KOOL. Bathroom is clean. Handicap accessible. There is a step leading to the second bar , so you would need to go outside to enter the second bar.

First let me say our server, think his name was Dan or Dani was superb. Place was clean and comfortable. Unfortunately my meal was not so good, very disappointing. I had the Chicken Apple Sausage scramble, hash browns & biscuit. My entire meal was lukewarm, eggs were undercooked, broccoli in the scramble was completely raw, and the biscuits, they weren't biscuits but more akin to a basic dinner roll. I have never had such a bad meal there, ever. Because I was with friends, I did not want to make a big stink about my meal, but I regret I did not bring all of this to the attention of my server. Hope your recent experience was better.

Decided to stop by for a drink before our main event, and tried the Frostbite Fizz. Drink was surprisingly spicy but still fun to try. Would recommend if you like that cool spice minty flavor. Sitting by the fire and chatting with a friend was a wonderful experience. Bartender was very friendly and welcoming, as we were hesitant to come in since we couldn't really tell what place it was and didn't show up on Apple Maps. Overall seems like a fun festive place to go with friends. We went at an off time but I would want to return on a Friday or weekend for a more lively experience.

Cute red arch upon entry with a plethora or every imaginable holiday decor inside. Decorations also aren't chaotic. Cute sleigh photo opp area too that you can get in. Menu includes food and drinks but we only got drinks. Some drinks were better than others. Wasn't a fan of the defrosty icee but I did enjoy the grinchmas, fireplace, and snow globe. If you like sours, then you'll enjoy the grinchmas. If you like refreshing tonics, you'll like the snow globe. I did find that the snow globe, while refreshing, was very citrusy. When sipping water afterwards, there was a strong citrus flavor that lingered in my mouth. Fireplace is a must if you want a fire show with flames and cinnamon. Drinks are $17 which I feel is pretty average for holiday pop ups. Staff was friendly and energetic.

The ceviche was fresh and flavorful, although the portion was on the smaller side for $20. The Arroz con Mariscos was overall good, but the mussels had a really funky smell/flavor to them (I spit the first one out and didn't take my chances with the second) - hence the -1 star. I can't comment on the interior/service since I've never dined in person. Overall, a good experience!

I've been to a few events that some of these vendors were selling at, so I decided to go last Friday and try out the BBQ from Big H. I ordered the $12 Chicken Combo plate that came with 2 piece chicken, potato salad, beans and sliced bread. The food was good and loved the BBQ sauce that I believe Big H makes. It was really nice to sit out in their sunny picnic area. There are umbrellas if you want to get out of the sub, but it just felt like summer was coming. BBQ and sunshine, perfection! Get out there, try something new and support local businesses!

In this case, Trademark closed, and fortunately The Stud is taking over in January. How convenient that the space can be converted to a winter wonderland in the meantime. I was able to convince Jamie W. in a moment of weakness to come here after we enjoyed "The Golden Girls Live! The Christmas Episodes" at the Victoria Theatre. We braved the 14 and saw the small neon sign. The windows were covered, so you take in the holiday decor all at once. Admission was $10 without a drink, $20 if you want one of three preselected drinks. There were two separate bar lounges and several holiday Instagram moments to be captured for your feed. In regard to the seasonal libations available, we decided to share a $15 Milk & Cookies cocktail, a fireside mix of vodka, coffee liqueur, Chocolate Bailey's, and cold brew coffee with a torched marshmallow (photo: https://yelp.to/W2e64Gijkg). It was a fitting elixir for the setting.

My friends and I ordered 3 different cocktail. They all came in different Christmas cups which were super cute. I thought the cocktails were all tasty but lacked a bit in alcohol. Most cocktails cost around $15 if you want to order more drinks.

We arrived around 8pm to a great Open Bar & delicious buffet - and had a total blast celebrating with our friends. The bartenders were all very professional & knowledgeable, and made awesome cocktails (like spiced moscow mules) and beer drinks. We would recommend the Mars Bar to anyone wanting to celebrate a special occasion like a birthday or retirement party. Most of the staff there are skilled and professional and the beers, cocktails and buffet food are even better!!

Due to the rain, we pretty much stayed in the bar area the entire time. There are plenty of both table and bar seating options available in the bar area, and both staff and bartenders were quick to take our orders. There is a pretty good selection of bar appetizers to choose from, and everything that we ordered was sizable and enjoyable. The bathroom situation here is a bit oddly constructed. There is a women's restroom inside. But the men's restroom is a separate addition that can only be accessed from the outside.

I tried the pepián and it was packed with flavor -- rich, comforting, and clearly made from scratch. The handmade tortillas were a standout (you can taste the difference), and the beans were super creamy and well-seasoned. I also got a shuco and wow... easily one of the best I've had in the Bay Area. The vibe is cozy and rustic, not fancy but very welcoming -- feels like you're eating at someone's home. Service was friendly and genuine, which made the whole experience even better. Portions are generous and prices are very reasonable for San Francisco. Definitely coming back to try more from the menu. Highly recommend if you want something different and authentic.

If you're looking for some good comfort food in a very chill environment, this is it! Two of us opted for the Pepian de Gallina, a delicious chicken stew with vegetables in a mildly spiced brown gravy. It was served with seasoned rice and two freshly made, delicious tortillas. One person made a meal out of side dishes that were quite good including a tamal Colorado and cooked corn on the cob with a drizzle of mayo, mustard, catsup, and cheese. For dessert we tried the platanos in mole sauce. This was new for us as we've only eaten chicken mole. The sauce was largely the same and mildly sweet. The people are friendly and very laid back. And the music is very mellow and nice.

They definitely helped make the day super special for everyone by filling hungry bellys. We had 3 different meats and all were juicy and delectable with their own unique flavors. I'm so glad we added the rice and beans too because they were perfect sides. The rice I think is Puerto Rican style which is already a delicious win and the beans are cooked with love and other ingredients. Definitely NOT out of the can like some places serve. I cannot wait for the next event we plan because I look forward to having these tacos again. They hit it out of the park!
