Bar Struzzo

No thanks. In SF a lot & stopped in to check the place for an evening bite. Apps & mains are attractive. Grilled artichoke that I ordered was adequate, but was picked way too young. Stopped short of ordering anything after that.An ordinary draft beer $10? A glass of house wine $13? Give me a break!Too many fabulous eating options elsewhere nearby.

Walked by plenty and finally tried Struzzo out last week. We arrived at 4pm and was told hh does not open until 5pm. But Mario, the bartender, let us sit and chatted with us while we wait. He was friendly and attentive, poured us water to keep us hydrated. Had nice convo while watching sports on the giant tv. More guests joined in along the way. Bar food with hh pricing. Great place to start your evening.

As others have noted, apparently I was not important enough to get any attention from the staff. There were 3 guests in the bar. I stood near the bartender for maybe 3-4 minutes with no attention. I assumed that meant I should sit down and she would be over. I sat down for 10 mins and was completely ignored. In fact, the bartender and server had a conversation 3 feet away from me and still no one acknowledged me. Finally, I walked over to the bar and stood there for 5 minutes clearly looking for attention, but there was none to be had.I left and had margaritas and a great dinner at a Mexican restaurant a few blocks away. Something sueños.

Came here for their happy hour as we were walking by. The staff is great and the appetizers were very tasty. We tried the Avacado toast. Would definitely return and recommend this place

Don't ever go into this establishment. I don't ever write reviews but had to for this. I work down the street from this place at a very high end place and was seriously upset at what took place. So I decided to drop by on my way to Bart to charge my cell phone and to have a Coke. I had one can of Coke which cost me 6.50. Yes you heard that correctly 6.50 for a can of Coke. Literally the most expensive can of coke in the universe. If a can of coke cost me 6.50 then what would a glass of beer or a glass of wine cost 95.50 I mean come on. I asked the bartender why is a can of coke so expensive he says "it's because it's downtown." I laughed and went on with my day but seriously 6.50 for a can of Coke. This place will not last.

Struzzo is located inside the hotel I stayed at when I was in San Francisco for a conference. I'd had a long day and wanted a drink so I headed down to the bar and asked the bar tender for a recommendation. He recommended two different drinks which both sounded great so I ordered one (the blood-orange mule). It was so good that when I went back, intending to order the other drink he recommended, I couldn't help but order the blood-orange mule again. The bartender was very friendly and helpful as well. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxed, there were only a few people there each time I walked through or went to order something. I was there during the week so I'm not sure if they get busy on the weekends.

Their happy hour is renewed and now it's pretty competitive and a great deal. 5-7p happy hour, $5 drinks and some appetizers or $15 for beer and burger :) Upscale atmosphere, good bartenders, and tasty food and cocktail too. Must try.

Everything was delicious! The short ribs are a must, but the lamb meatballs, tomato soup, and artichoke are not far behind. The flavors are rich and filling! If you're in union square, skip past all the chains and find this restaurant!

This restaurant serves the most amazing gastronomic delights. Located in Villa Florence hotel, this euro deco restaurant serves a vast array of gourmet pleasures to satisfy even the pickiest eaters. A must eat is the braised short ribs on marscapone polenta, just delicious, as well as the grilled artichokes, the lamb meatballs, and the shrimp scampi that will stimulate the taste buds. In addition the staff was warm and welcoming and we even had the executive chef come to our table to make sure our experience was good.This is a must visit restaurant for all people seek the best.

The service was very friendly and efficient. And you can't beat the location - just a few steps from Union Square. The only reason I'm giving 3 stars is to give folks a heads up that they will be charged the mini-bar price ($5.99) if they order sodas.
