This quaint little tavern of a spot is a true hidden gem of SF, or at least of Pacific Heights…read more Okay, maybe Lower Pac Heights. Okay maybe it's not actually a gem at all, but rather a pebble that happens to be somewhat shiny. It's a tiny little family-run joint no larger than a 3-bedroom apartment. They don't even have a website! It's barely visible from the street but once you squeeze between a minimart and a salon of some sort and climb up the hidden stairs in this mini-alley, you'll find yourself on your way to the adventure of a lifetime. Once up the dingy and disgusting stairs, the impeccably spotless front lobby of the establishment leaves you feeling immaculate from within. All that changes however as you enter the actual Den. This private VIP room has a decor of its own that is a bit disjointed from the rest of the place. The immaculateness seems to end at the door of the den, but the sloppy interior adds a homely feel which I ain't complaining about. Among the oddities of this joint is a random hatch in the wall that opens up to the great outdoors. It is a tiny hatch, barely wide enough to stick an arm though. I am told that it is the remains of an ancient garbage chute that once was. Many people however use it as a convenient means of checking the weather, or so I hear. Musical instruments, such as guitars, abound the area and seem to have been left behind by past inhabitants. If you go to the back, you can open up a strange closet, only to find a random light deep within its bowels that can be turned on from the outside. There are beds to lie down on. With no official "hours", the Lobster's Den is always open as a chill hangout and party spot, unless the owner is away. There's often drinking that occurs, but mostly I have seen people either studying there or sleeping, oddly enough. I used to always see this one cute little Indian number in there. Actually she's the only reason I would go there, to tell you the truth. This hottie was always there, so you single guys out there should definitely check this place (her) out, especially if a little spicy Indian flavor's your thing. Now if that doesn't scream Local Flavor, I don't know what does. The other day, Samir and I were hanging out there at 3am, just kicking it with her. And that was when we found out that she's the owner! She gave us the grand tour. Grand old time indeed. The only reason I give it 3 stars is the emptiness of this place. This owner chiquita's practically the only person that's ever there. I mean I don't really mind that all that much, but still! A little new blood wouldn't hurt. Although once I did see a tall manager in there. No one really knows about this place, and it's no wonder. They don't even have a website! I mean come on! In this day and age! No wonder I'm the first person to Yelp it. The sexy mama was telling us, however, that they may shift their location in another couple months. So maybe they're holding out for that. Hopefully the new one will be better publicized. And hopefully there will be more chicks there.

Like I wonder if that bald guy is actually finding being a gas station attendant that difficult or if he's just playing a joke on us. Today, at 746 AM, all the doors were locked even though everything was open. Everyone kept pulling up to pay but of course, somebody needed a nap so we had to get gas elsewhere. I can't believe this guy has a job. This is at least the FIFTH time this happened and my first review of the place.

First of all I just want to say I have been taking both of my BMWS to this car wash for a couple of…read moreyears, living in the city there is no options for car wash besides this location and two others. Their wash is ALWAYS inconsistent, one wash might good and the other times, 80% of the time the car is poorly washed all around, I would have to clean up the car myself after their service. THIS time is was my absolute final time to ever take my car here. They cracked my windshield during the wash , they didn't call me when this happened, instead the staff that washed my car today completely acted like it wasn't them, acted like nothing happened and hoping I would NOT notice a HUGE crack in my windshield that on my 100k car. Beyond frustrating and aggravating how the staff handled it, they made me fill out a "claim" form that looks like it came from a public library typed by a 1st grader . I wasn't giving a solution or any resolutions, all they said we will contact you when we "know more". I asked to see the cameras, which of course they didn't show. Instead they tried to feed me a possibility this might have happened else where, but it didn't, the car was perfectly fine before this wash. If you have a valuable expensive vehicle DO NOT take your car here! I assure you it's not worth your money or the possibility of them damaging the exterior of the car. Anyone who needs a car wash referral I will be happy to provide it! I would give this place a -5 * if I could. Charging people absurd amount of money for half ass job, for inconsistent washes, very possible damage that might occur is absolutely shameless. This place needs to be handled by a different management and staff who actually know what they are doing and caring about customers and taking responsibility for the damages they caused!!!

Their wine selection is huge, with bottles from all different regions and price ranges. The staff were extremely helpful and welcoming, taking the time to answer questions and give recommendations without making me feel rushed or overwhelmed. I ended up going with this beautiful bottle of Chianti Classico and it definitely felt like a great choice for the occasion. The shop itself also has a very calm and cozy atmosphere that makes browsing enjoyable. You can tell this is the type of place made for people who genuinely enjoy wine, whether you're experienced or just trying to find something good for dinner. Definitely a spot worth checking out if you're looking for a quality bottle of wine, a thoughtful recommendation or just want to explore something new.
