Bryan R. "Had a blast at this place. My brother brought us here while we were visiting. We got to enjoy bingo night and had alot of fun. It was cool to learn about how they burned down an were rebuilt. If I lived in the area I could definitely see myself coming here alot. I especially enjoyed how we could get a pizza drop next door and eat it while drinking. Definitely a place to visit. Service was great and the bartender was very nice."

Adam X. "Best dive bar in SF. Great bartenders and servers (Jessica Michelle Christina Katy Deborah Alicia), great cook (Jorge) whose been there 20 years, great food, specials, well priced drinks, and fun live music every night they're open (Tue-Sat). It's off the beaten track, and a jewel of the city."

Neat little neighborhood bar that attracts some amazing, young & talented musicians. A friend of mine brought me here to see a band he was considering joining as a guitar player. The crowd was chill, and they have a good selection of beers that were not all just IPAs - which is a disturbing trend in many bars today.Not this place, I have choices of beers.I'll be back even on nights without live music.

A few friends and I came here at night for drinks. We arrived at 10:45pm, because we planned to arrive before 11pm, which is when the $5 cover would've been charged. Once we got to the door at 10:46pm, the bouncer requested $5 to get in. I told them that I thought that the cover is only charged after 11pm, which is what I checked according to their Instagram before and after we arrived. The bouncer said that they changed it to 10pm and that it's "basically 11." The point is that it was not 11pm, because our group timed our arrival to get in before cover was needed. We ended up paying but that was a bit misleading and confusing. Everything is cash only. I didn't get any drinks but I liked how they had water pitchers and cups in an accessible area. The bathroom is one stall only and not terribly dirty. I got pretty sweaty and the vibes were nice.

This place is a gem. Always have great service and food at the Rite Spot. We met our friend who had moved away. They requested that we meet at the Rite Spot for old times sake.
