Couldn't tell if they were short-staffed but service was a bit slow. Food was fair (nothing particularly outstanding) but felt overpriced for what it was. The drinks were good, though. If I do go back, it'd just be for the drinks.

Food is outstanding. Service is good, but sometimes slow (have to ask for things, but the servers are nice). Ambiance is great. Has a steampunk / retro vibe. Excellent cocktail list + bartender’s choice is amazing.

The Comstock Saloon is a very cute restaurant that takes you away from the hustle and bustle of San Francisco. The theming was beautiful and ornate, and the food was overall pretty good. The pricing is about on-par with what you would expect in the city, but the portions are a bit smaller than what you would expect for the price. Be sure to book a reservation, as the place is packed full at opening!

fusion menu with lots of miso and chili. online menu is not up to date. service was okay - quick food, but a long delay for the check. i wouldn’t want to go back for brunch, but if you’re looking for a bar with okay food - this might be the place.

A hidden gem right off of Columbus Street. I’ve been living here for years and had no idea this place with an authentic old-time saloon feel existed. Live music only added to a great experience! I’ll be coming back.

While the quality of drinks and the location can’t be beat... the incredibly condescending service by the bartenders and I think servers (hostess/manager?) can’t be ignored either. This place needs to step up customer service value here and remember not everyone are tourists. Some of us actually are locals that used to appreciate the craftsmanship of cocktails.... I can go elsewhere however if the service continues this way.

One of my favorite places in North Beach. This time, our server was totally clueless and had to ask us to repeat our drink orders 3 times even after writing it down. She took our food menus when we hadn't ordered food yet, brought us forks and plates twice, couldn't answer any questions about food or drinks. Our best guess was that she was high. The drinks and ambiance are always great but the food was only OK, especially for the higher prices.
