About Trick Dog

Trick Dog, now known as The Salty Dawg, is a popular bar in SF, celebrated for its creative and frequently changing cocktail menu. The bar offers an extensive selection of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic mixed drinks, showcasing unique flavors like strawberry in the Rising Sun. It has a lively atmosphere, attracting crowds, especially on busy Friday and weekend nights. Upstairs features designated tables and seating for quieter conversations, while downstairs remains a typical loud bar space. The menu includes a playful theme called 'Dogs,' inspired by the musical 'Cats,' with helpful descriptions of each drink. Customers appreciate the inventive and tasty cocktails, which are often delicious and interesting, although some feel they are pricey. The kale salad is a standout, providing a large, surprisingly flavorful portion that can feed more than two people. However, the chicken nuggets are small and mostly fried skin, making them not worth ordering. The service is very good, and the bartenders ensure customers are taken care of, although it may take a little time to get a drink due to the busy environment. Outdoor seating is also available, adding to the enjoyable experience. Overall, The Salty Dawg provides a fun and unique atmosphere, with a great drink selection and tasty food, making it worth a visit despite some concerns about prices and portion sizes.

Fun experience here. We sat at the bar, and I overheard many customers asking who’s working or customers greeting the staff. Definitely felt like the staff is well known in this neighborhood and has a lot of regular customers. Great to see.

The menu is awesome. Very cool and caught me by surprise as I grew up as a wrestling fan. It felt nostalgic and made it fun to choose a drink.

It seemed like a seasonal or rotating menu since I heard the bartender say this was...read full review

solid food and solid drinks. Trick Dog has outdone it again. highly recommend checking out WTD menu (wrestling themed) this season.

favorite foods: crispy lamb meatballs, kale salad, trick nuggets, mission dog, literally could not go wrong with anything.

favorite drinks: chyna, rowdy roddy piper, frog splash

one of those classic spots in the mission. come here for the kale caesar salad, the drinks don’t miss either. all the other apps are splendid, loved the cauliflower!
