    "I love this bar."......RIP Toby! This one's for you!
    N M.

    Great bar to pop into! Meet with friends, a date night, if you live in the area great spot to grab a cold one. I especially love the beautiful brick and reclaimed wood that is throughout the entire bar. The wood is from an 150 year old farmhouse. Gorg!! Beers are cold, drinks are strong. Bartender was nice, friendly and provided a great conversation. This is a chill vibe type of bar. It's not where you're going to want to come to find rave music, 21 year olds doing crazy shots at the bar and a dj. It's chill, cozy, dark and charming. So much for your eyes to take in. Be your own judge and go take a look.

    As a final stop for the SF Halloween bar crawling, we came to this place at around 1am of Friday night. The place was still very crowded and to get a drink we still had to wait for a couple of minutes. The ambience was nature-themed and very warm and I thought it could be a nice cafe or something as well. There were not that many tables on the first floor and it was more like a dance club than a bar. We didn't get any cocktail or something that we could consider the taste of drinks but the bar tender was really nice. Overall, I got a good experience and would like to come back to try other drinks and experiences when it was not as crazy as during the bar crawling.

    I love the laid back and friendly environment during the day and hip lounge vibe at night. It's a great place to hang, and there's even fireplace! Cocktails are delicious and love how comfortable the bartender makes everyone feel like a regular. There are lots of options on Polk but I always keep stopping in!

    Lush and I go back a ways when my friend Carlos used to take me to the old, more compact location down the street to get the Lemon Drops. He liked chatting it up with one of the bartenders while we both got sloshed. I know from taking the 19 all the time that Lush moved up Polk to bigger digs with a fireplace and an upstairs area. It's like an episode of "House Hunters" where the bickering young couple is staying with her parents in her girlhood room as they shop for a house with four walk-in closets and twin sinks in the master suite. Well, Lush obviously found their true north with this far more relaxing industrial-cool spot (photo: http://bit.ly/1eQXwYo). I came with Jamie W. this time before doing our regular pastrami run at Miller's East Coast Deli. It was a holiday weekend, so we figured the popular bars would be empty. Wanting to wet our whistles, I flashed back to the good times I had at the old Lush and was happy to discover the new place keeps the same convivial vibe. Oh wait, maybe I was the old lush, but I can be the new lush, too, right? It was Happy Hour, and we were already late since it starts at 3PM. The Lemon Drop wasn't on the list, but other temptations compensated. Jamie went for the tantalizing $6 Don Q Mojito evoking Havana nights he's never had (photo: http://bit.ly/1c2wmxL). I went predictable and ordered the $5 Blueberry Martini (photo: http://bit.ly/1bLfVvs). Ah, their fruity martini cocktails are still addictively tasty. Yes, we had another round. And that pastrami sure tasted good after that. COCKTAILS - 4 stars...they still make those refreshing martini drinks, don't they? AMBIANCE - 4 stars...far more spacious than the former spot with enough dim lighting that you don't notice the hipster quotient...much SERVICE - 4 stars...genuinely friendly and dexterous with a shaker (photo: http://bit.ly/1e6V4Nj) TOTAL - 4 stars...still holds up as a favorite watering hole with the $5-6 Happy Hour libations a major draw on quiet three-day weekends

    Lush Lounge was probably the most "normal" bar of the Bachelor Party pub crawl. Not too crowded. Warm, hipster, and casual environment. Music in the background,but at the perfect volume so that you can still talk and hear each other. Drinks are surprisingly affordable for San Francisco....beers available as low as $6 and wells drinks as low as $8. Not the most exciting place to be on a Saturday night, but you won't be disappointed either. Probably a great spot for your first Tinder date on a week night.

    Came to Lush because they were part of the 90s Bar Crawl. Raspberry lemon drop shots all around. The shot was alright, but it was warm; it would have been much better had it been strained through ice. Bartender was friendly. Loved the decor. Plenty of seats both downstairs and upstairs. Not a good place to dance, but if you're looking to just chill, Lush Lounge is for you. Bathrooms were very clean.

    Is there dancing at Lush Lounge?

    There's space near the bar downstairs for dancing but not a lot of people dance earlier in the night. You would want to be there around 12am for more people to join you on the dance floor.

    When is happy hour?

    Sunday all day happy hour is a lie

    Is there a cover charge on Friday nights?

    No cover

The shishito peppers ended up being extremely spicy as well, those are usually just a few spicy and not the majority. The roasted lemon and salt was a wonderful combo but just too spicy to eat. However, the server very kindly removed it from our bill without us asking. We order the crostini because we were still hungry and that was an absolute hit. Delicious med-soft crostini with luscious berries and sweet honey. I didn't care my hands got sticky as it was soooo good! Great experience, I would be weary if the peppers as I'm a bit spice-intolerant but everything else was spot-on.

    This place has risen in the ranks of my fave cocktail bars in SF. Recently tried to go to Elements…read moreonly to discover it was closed or at least closed to additional patrons 45 minutes before closing so made our way to a couple other bars instead, including Blind Pig. It takes a lot for me to consider a return visit to a cocktail bar. Most of the time, I just begrudgingly go along with my friends to a mediocre bar, but Blind Pig is a place I would enthusiastically return to again and again. I first got the namesake cocktail: Blind Pig. It was incredibly well-balanced, and the flame presentation upon arrival was an epic mini show. Later during last call, I decided to risk it all and roll the dice to order from the secret menu. I rolled a 5, which got me a wine & Japanese beer concoction with Sichuan peppercorn. Totally feel like this cocktail was made for me, as I rep the 川渝 region. The drink was strong, but that made it all the better. Can't wait to come again and explore more of the menu behind the password-protected iykyk entrance.

    Hot Take: Weeknights are better than weekends for going out…read more Chill, less of a crowd, a locals vibe, and to avoid amateur hour. I'm personally over (and too old) dealing with sloppy drunks spilling drinks on you, getting pushed around in a crowd or end up in a middle of a brawl Blind Pig is that perfect spot, well at least on a weeknight: chill, low-key, and moody. And, most importantly comfy seating AND solid AZN inspired craft cocktails ($18-$19). Cocktails with black sesame, taro, pandan, mapo tofu, tea, and hot pot flavors? YAS! D R I N K S * Hot & Sour: Tanqueray Gin w/ Iichiko shochu, aloe, rose, hot pot paste, basil, citrus, peychaud's ($18 x2) The sichuan hot pot inspired cocktail was silky smooth from the milk-washed gin, nicely balanced - sweet (but not too sweet) and sour with a subtle málà numbing spice. Stiff yet easy to drink. The manager/bartender, Leo was awesome with great hospitality. Background lounge-y music is not too loud so you can yap and catch-up with friends. Overall, Blind Pig is a great place to unwind after work or start the night off. If it's too tamed for you, you can always go next door to XEX to make bad decisions - no judgement cuz we've all been there! ;) O T H E R I N F O * Walk-in only. PW to enter is on IG. * Blind Pig originally opened in Chinatown in a larger space but they're now in a more intimate space on Polk. * Blind Pig is under Mins Group (Sushi Sato, Sushi Hon, The Roll, The Buoy, Dento Piano Cafe, Dragon Horse, and more.) * No snacks/food but plenty of food options within walking distance.
