Stumbled upon the Family Billiard bar via a yelp search. Had the best time ever. Cici was the Swiss Army knife who checked me in @ issued me a table, poured a few beers for me & tripled as the cook. The food, ambiance & 10 to 12 pool tables in the joint were outstanding. I will visit Family Billiards again during a future trip to the city. Cici needs a raise. Their Shrimp & fries combo meal was "on point"!!!

Family Billiards is a cool place in the cool city of San Francisco! Smiling parking attendant…read moreguided our car to the designated spot for disabled people. Two nice hostesses welcomed us at the front door and made a rather pleasant first impression. The bar had choices of food and beverage, the room appeared very clean and the music was just right for us. One hostess was particularly attentive about our choice of table and described such details as pocket sizes and table sizes and also pointed at Brunswick and Diamond brands in the room. We played a nine foot table which was in a very good condition. There was comfortable enough space between tables and we enjoyed the game and the atmosphere. People around the room were nice and friendly. This is really a family place.

SERVICE WAS WEIRD AND UNCALLED FOR. I believe the person who came up to use was the owner. Or…read morepossibly a manager. I was playing with my homie and before we were gonna break to start a game, he tells me we need to use a cloth underneath the white ball first otherwise we could damage the tables. I've never heard of this. I asked him multiple times why and to example n to me the logic. With this rule you could basically mess up the cloth after every hit. This idiot don't even introduce himself or anything, he just starting talking to us like we were ten year old and he was our dad. Also, he never did this shit with any other table there. There are also no signs anywhere of this rule. He pretty much killed our vibe and we left. We're grown ass men, if we fuck up your table so be it but why the fuck are you coming up to us and where we're half drunk trying to talk to us like you're our dad. Not coming back.

We were upstairs and got here at 5 so felt like we had a private space for 5 of us. Very nice pool tables we played the 9 feet one upstairs. Food was mixed. We loved the yuca fries, steak sandwich, pork belly Bao, yuca fries. Carne asada fries were heavy and just ok. Corn fritter a bit too oily and salad pretty bland. Overall had a good time for two hour for 5 of us. We used our inkind credit to pay which made it worth it. as food prices otherwise is a bit steep for the portions. Recommend.

1-Star Review - I Wish I Could Give Zero Stars…read more I wish I could give this place zero stars. We came in on a Sunday, and there was hardly anyone there--no wait and plenty of open lanes. We started by trying to order drinks, but were told there was no bartender. Fine, we moved on. When my fiancée asked if they had socks, the employee simply shook their head. No explanation, no "sorry," nothing. We ended up going to Goodwill to buy a pair just so we could bowl. Once we finally got on our lane, it malfunctioned three different times. After the third issue, I asked for a refund because it was clear we weren't going to have a smooth experience. The only positive thing I can say is that the facility was nice and clean. Unfortunately, clean floors don't make up for poor customer service and equipment that constantly breaks down. If your bowling lanes are having issues, the least you can do is be friendly, apologize, and try to make things right. Needless to say, we won't be coming back.
