Great cocktails. We appreciated that the seating was shielded from the road. Fries were crunchy and very satisfying. Would go again!

Stopped in on a whim. Cool spot. Mind boggling selection of spirits.
Nicely crafted cocktail. Pleasant staff.
Food was good though we only sample a few items.
Would definitely go back if in the area again.

A large menu with lots of fun out of the ordinary drinks. Recommend the Black Manhattan! Nice dim warm lighting inside and they play good music ᵕ̈

All drinks or food is ordered at the bar. No table service. Great looking bar with many liquor options. Could have been a bit more personable to the newcomer. Might be more of a “locals bar”.

Insisted a Rye Manhattan must come with a lemon twist… incorrect and unwavering.

Will return but selective in regards which bartender to order from.

Happy Birthday JS!

The food was awesome, we had the pork enchilada special. Service team seemed a little stressed but it was slammed so understanding. Great atmosphere before GD60!

Good cocktails but wow, extremely overpriced. $18+ each on Haight street. The bartender was also just an awful person to be around on a Sunday. Grumpy and did not make us want to stay. This place used to be amazing back when they opened and for years - avoid in 2025.

Alembic is an oft-overlooked gem in the Haight... Service can be spotty but food and drink on mark. Recommend.
