Solid cocktails and a sister bar to Alter Ego nearby. I prefer the speakeasy vibe of Alter Ego if you’re in the mood for fancy but Paper Plane is more casual and affordable. Came on a Wednesday night so no wait, no resy needed. Had several cocktails- all tasted great. Love the menu that had a scatter plot of what flavor profile youre looking for: fruity/tart or spirit forward/smoky. Shiso pearfect was decent and passionate fool and summer 93 were much sweeter. Summer 93 had a little scoop of ice cream in there… interesting. The bartender was super friendly and attentive. Good for small groups and couples. Wish they had a cider on tap outside of the ~6-7 beers.

Honestly this place sucks, the staff sucks and is really rude, drinks are overpriced and overrated, and the vibes are bad. I have no idea why people like this place.

Went there with 8 friends, sat down at a bench with a low table (1 ft above the ground) and one of my friends had her foot propped up on the table. Without any warning, the bouncer comes up to us (bald asian guy) and kicks us out. Not sure why he couldn't just tell her to put her feet down. We were not drunk at this point nor had we even gotten a drink yet. The most bizarre experience I had ever witnessed at a place like this. The business lost approx. $300 in revenue because of this guy, I would fire him.

The Christmas-themed cocktails weren't my cup of tea. Perhaps because there's a university nearby, there were a lot of people. The bartenders were very pleasant.

Was there on a Thursday night and bouncer was rude to kick us out right at the dot of 1:45 when they’re supposed to close at 2am. They started to have people leave at 130am. Clearly he was unhappy about his job.

Always great vibe, especially around christmas time. Drinks are different, and there's something for everyone. Pricey, but i think the quality matches the price for an occasional boozey treat. A good stop you won't regret, if you're nearby.

After an exciting win by the 49ers it was time to have one last meal before we hit the road from San jose. This restaurant came highly recommended as a family member of mine said she really loved their tacos. I enjoyed the ease of the menu as you pick your items told the bartender and paid in advance I ordered the vegan tacos along with the truffled fries. My friend ordered a bacon hamburger. I enjoyed that the food did not take much time to come out and the Truffle fries had great flavor I really enjoyed the tacos as you couldn't tell there wasn't meat in them. The brussel sprouts along with their sauce and pickled onions gave these tacos a really good flavor profile. Overall I definitely would try them again. I wasn't able to try a drink at the bar because I was the designated driver for the night however I'd love to try their Bar menu as they had some unique drinks that should be explored.

I have been coming here for years but the new management seems horrible. The bar attender Steven was extremely rude. When I complained the manager did not seem to care.
I can't put a star in the food yet because haven't tried it paper plane was advertising that on October 14 specifically they were going to have prime rib dinner for $19.99 only if we bought a cocktail but when I called to see about the deal they told me that they had another venue for October 14 last minute that was very rude then they told me that they moved the venue over to mini boss so we went their to enjoy our dinner but when we hit there there was no sign or message on the advertisement that children weren't allowed my son is 11 year old and he was very disappointed because he loves prime rib I know they do not care when it comes to satisfy customers when more money is involved I just know that they lost a customer and I wouldn't want them to apologize to me just be6we wasted a whole night looking for another establishment that served great prime rib please don't even offer a discount or gift card I have great respect and pride for our family and for you to take that away for another high paying venue us beyond ok I see your business going under in 4 years remember the smallest customer make up mute if your biggest venue on the first experience

Absolutely no reason to have TSA style security checks for a bar. Also the line is inflated to make it seem more popular because once you get in there’s plenty of room and even places to sit. The cocktails were great and the bartenders were wonderful but management seems pretty stupid
