Orchard Pizza
Neeketa S.

This is an adorable wine shop, with a very cozy atmosphere for any occasion. I have to admit, I looked at this place a few times and COMPLETELY overlooked the fact that they had pizza. Outta Sight Pizza operates inside Fig & Thistle, and kinda feels like a secret only the locals know about! Outta Sight Pizza is the best NYC-style pizza I've had in downtown SF. The pizza is a big overpriced, but worth it. We ordered "The Orchard" and their rosemary cream honey sauce was indescribable. The waiter told us it won an award for its flavors. There are a few other snacks you can order, but the star of the show is pizza. Even if you're not interested in the alcohol...come for the pizza, you won't regret it.

I'm updating my review SOLELY for the wine bar aspect of this place, not outta sight pizza, which remains one of my absolute favorite pizzas in the city. Unfortunately I've had a few poor experiences here since my first review. I've been here a total of 8-10 times now (we live about 10m walk and we love the pizza :)). Most of our bad experiences have had to do with takeout and the employees. We did come with a group of friends (total of 6 ppl) and they couldn't seat us for an hour. We then asked if we could order a few pizzas to go and they said no, or rather that it would take over an hour bc they prioritize in restaurant. While that sucks it does make sense, but they were super rude about it which i don't love. Again these are all fig and thistle wine bar employees. Last week we ordered take out (which we almost weren't able to get bc the restaurant was supposedly busy). I asked them to add Garlic to the vodka pizza (which they def have bc it's on half their pizzas). She told me she'd have to check with the kitchen. When i got there there was no garlic, the pizza was super duper cold (almost as if they don't even keep it warm On the oven or a warmer), and the dude was once again, hella rude. They also forgot my ranch but didn't realize til i got home, and that shit costs $3! And one last thing to keep in mind, they add a 20% gratuity... FOR TAKE OUT!!! I always always tip for takeout but they should not force you to tip 20% for takeout, and if so that better be going straight to the kitchen. Anyways, outta sight pizza is closing their pop up here this weekend so while I'll probably eat here all week, I'll probably never be back again after that. the wine bar offers absolutely nothing unique I'd come for. Very sad Outta Sight won't be down the street anymore but will have to check out their new location nearby.

Overcooked crust. Didn't even bother eating it.

Slow & mediocre service, coupled with underwhelming & overpriced food renders this place "to-avoid" on a casual night at best. This was my first time eating here and will probably be my last. The wait time to be seated outside wasn't an issue at all. However, the wait time for our pizzas to come was pretty unrealistic. I mean what are the cooks doing back there? Stomping the tomatoes in the back? Most likely they forgot it in the oven because the crust was burnt to a crisp. Not to mention that after the order was put in, which the staff was urging us to do every 2 minutes. They barely tended to us at all. And upon the request of some additional olive oil so that we can drizzle it on the pizza, the server declined because "Unfortunately, there is no way to ring it up." I am very sorry, but why would you even charge me for a little olive oil? Other establishments have never charged for such a small condiment. Maybe the waiter was just lazy. All this to say that the inflated prices here don't justify the quality of food and service at all. Hard pass!

Ida
Justin Y.

This is more of a review for the pizza popup "outta sight" that's operating out of fig & thistle! The bar itself was nice, with mellow vibes. I'd totally stop by and have a glass of wine sometime. Brought friends here after I heard about this pizza joint and it lived up to expectations! The pies were thin, NY style pizzas and were really well done. Light and airy but with tons of flavor and a good crisp on the bottom and crust. I believe the menu rotates from time to time with different pizza options but we got the Madonna, Ida, and Phoebe. The Ida was the crowd favorite - really unique pizza that was was reminiscent of elote. But all of them were dank, I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu. All the ingredients are super fresh and you can really taste it. One of the best slices I've had in the city!

Cheese plate
Margaret R.

A little overpriced and stuffy, but good wine and bites. Not the most exciting place in the neighborhood but good for a weeknight drink. The wine is great and that's really the highlight, in addition to very healthy, if not heavy, pours. Despite that, it's still on the pricey side but not out of place in the neighborhood. Food menu is very limited and the cheese plate is good for 2 to 3 to share. Our waiter seemed grumpy and impatient but it's hard to blame him since he was playing vaccine bouncer, bartender, and waiter for the whole place alone. Not crowded on a weeknight so it wasn't too slow, but when it's busy on a weekend you should plan to linger a while. For better food and just as good wine there are other spots on the block, but it's a pleasant place to sit for a glass of wine. You can't beat the convenience to the adjacent dispensary of the same name located just around the corner.

New Sliceria Address

I actually visited them because it was featured on Killa Mike's show on VICE and I have no regrets. Literally THE BEST PIZZA in the Bay Area ! Now, I have had a lot of pizzas throughout my 27 years of living ... but Outta Sight Pizza blew my expectations out the water. I got the Orchard (my new favorite) and my spouse had the Phoebe- it may have been pricey but both were amazing and well worth the money! They also will be opening a restaurant that sells Pizza by the Slice next week - definitely go support. It is located at: 422 Larkin St San Francisco, CA 94102 United States I'll for sure be coming back soon.

A great wine bar in Hayes Valley! The atmosphere is relaxed but energetic and there's a surprising amount of space! We showed up at 9 on a Wednesday (closes at 10) and there were no issues as far as us entering and ordering a glass. The kitchen was already closed but we expected that with showing up on the later end. There were QR codes readily available to browse the menu and the service was super quick + nice. A great variety of wines available without it being overwhelming (this is key as too many can cause decision paralysis!). I got the Sauv Blanc which I loved and would definitely get again. Great spot for a girls night or a date night! Can't wait to try the food next time.

Pros: - good wine selection - fancy/modern/hipster aesthetic (if that's your thing) Cons: - very loud, which makes it hard to have real convos, which is often what I go to wine bars for vs "regular" bars - general lack of snacks They seem like really nice people running the joint. It's clean and we didn't have much trouble finding a seat. That said, I missed the conversation-oriented feel that I have come to associate with and appreciate about wine bars. If you want a glass of wine and something to make you feel like new money this is perfect.

Phoebe Pizza

The way I am ABSOLUTELY OBSESSED with this place now. I found this place by googling "Fun Wine Bars in Hayes Valley." This place did not let me down at all. Fig and Thistle was fun, an overall good vibe, and is charming too. I ordered 2 glasses, their orange wine, and their cheapest red. Both were so good, I really enjoy orange wine but cannot seem to find it everywhere I go. The red was on the drier side and was super enjoyable. Overall, their wine selection was fantastic and had everything I was looking for and more. I was expecting this to be just a good wine bar, but this was more than that. The food was fantastic too. We got two pizzas- the cheese one and the pepperoni one. Both were amazing, crunchy crust, flavorful sauce, and cheese, toppings but not too many. If you want to sip wine and get some fantastic food, look no further. Our server was great and brought everything timely. I have no complaints at all about this place. I will be returning without a doubt, and am going to bring more people.

We popped in here on a Friday night bc a friend mentioned this was his go to date spot. Fig and thistle is such a cute wine bar - great outdoor and indoor seating. Must go for the happy hours!

Sarah L.

Really great service and vibe! The wine was wonderful but the star was the pizza. My friend and I opted for the tavern pizza and I was extremely glad we did because the crust was thin and crispy and the flavor combination was extremely delicious. It paired nicely with their red wines. Would definitely come back in the near future.

This review is for the pizza, which I came here specifically for. Pizza was amazing, highly recommend, but in addition the atmosphere of the place is extremely nice and the staff are super friendly and nice as well.

This Cab hit the spot :)

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!

Charging the $10 event fee on discretion before the posted event start time seems... shady? illegal? My two friends got in a few minutes before with no cover. I was dealing with a bike lock while they went in. We were not there for the event but rather as volunteers from the weekly cleanup refuse crew in the Mission. You get perks as a thank-you for doing your part in making the City a cleaner place. We had just had a lovely time at another participating business (Beehive) and planned on Arcana being our final stop. Thankfully I was able to use the restroom without a fee, with my gear held up outside by the security team. While waiting in the restroom line, I told a staff member about all this, and the worker seemingly went up to the front to find out what's going on. The line took a few minutes, my friends also bumped into me, and I told them I'd likely wait for them outside the business post-restroom while they finished their wine. Already reported to the Mayor's Office. Maybe I'll add BBB. Should be honest and equitable! Four out of 200+ reviews by me have been one star, so I rarely share negativity. It's all rather unfortunate as other visits here went off without an issue. I warned a group of four about all this while I waited out front, and after talking to the front door folks, they left and thanked me for the advice. Please be careful if you visit here. . . .

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.

The energy is vibrant without feeling overwhelming, and the noise level is just right. It's quiet enough to have a conversation and get lost in your own thoughts, but not so quiet that you feel awkward sitting in silence. Plus, the people watching was pretty entertaining, which definitely added to the experience. The three of us only tried two different wines. My friend ordered a glass of Masha, while my other friend and I both ordered the Los Chuchaquis. The verdict: Masha was really good. Good enough that a second glass was ordered! As for the Los Chuchaquis, I personally didn't love it. I found it a little too tannic and bitter for my taste. If you have a low tolerance for bitterness, this might not be the wine for you. That said, my friend, who ordered the same wine, absolutely loved it and thought it was delicious. So maybe I just ordered the wrong wine for my palate? ‍ Either way, the wine is only part of the experience. The energy here is fantastic, the bartender was welcoming and friendly, and the crowd was cheerful without being obnoxious, which I really appreciate. I'm not usually much of a night person, but I genuinely had a great time. It was one of those evenings that reminded me how nice it is to get out, enjoy good company, and simply soak in the atmosphere. I'm really glad I took my friends up on their offer to go out. Definitely a 5 star experience for the atmosphere, the energy, and the overall vibe. This seems to be such an interesting neighborhood. I'd love to come back and wander around, explore more, and discover what else this part of the city has to offer.
