Gambit Lounge

This has to be the ultimate date spot in SF. Great cosy room with lots of seating options and a set of really lovely bar tenders who can whip up any drink you want or create something truly unique for you. Also, and this is a biggie - by far THE BEST ESPRESSO MARTINI in the whole of SF!

Nice place if you want just grab a cocktail.I asked for something bitter and the waiter made the cocktail I asked for.We also tried their focaccia and it was fine (not the Italian one, but good while you're drinking).Good place to come back and try more plates. Ambiance is also very friendly (especially kid friendly).

Came here for a holiday party. Food was just okay. They really excel when it comes to cocktails, which makes sense. The vibes of the place is nice. Loved the overall aesthetics. I'd definitely come back for another cocktail.

What's new? I had some drinks like a coconut cinnamon liquor and also the negroni semi-mocktail. I am sick of drinking juice. Let the bartender do their job or go to a juice bar. HAHAHAHAHYou can teach me sometime. I pay for myself. HAHAHAH

It's just ok for the price and there are better options nearby. Menu has lots of heavy food like sandwiches, sausages, and fries. But it's $20+, very greasy, and something I could've made better myself in 5 minutes in my kitchen. The vibe is very heavy, dark, and masculine. Kind of like a den. The staff doesn't pay attention and isn't too welcoming. It's just ok.

Six of us came here for cocktails. I got the Flor De Mi Secreto and my friend got the Pap PolacoTook awhile to get the drinks even though no one else was there inside and the two tables outside already had their drinks. The drinks were very good! We also got a board or meat and cheese which was outstanding. Loved the soft Brie and high quality meats.Atmosphere austere.Would come back.

Fun and pretty place for a cocktail and they even have a discounted happy hour! We also got the charcuterie board which was very pretty (though not enough of the delicious fried bread, so we had to ask for more.20 years ago Hayes Valley was kinda depressing - such a cute hood now.

This is great spot for lunch, dinner, casual dates, and solo chill spot on bar. Their dessert is perfect with coffee in the morning. Caesar will take care of you!I went with a coworker and shared several appetizers, with dessert. It was yummy. Great ambiance. Worth checking out.

* restaurant week * Everything was delicious! The sauce on the chicken is one to dream about & the dumplings were so juicy. The wine pairing for the dumplings and the salad were mouth watering.It'd be a cool spot to host a party. Love the two bars and the separate rooms

Newly opened bar in the middle of Hayes Valley. I visited this bar for a drink with my friend on Wednesday around 8 pm and it was absolutely popping by then. I really liked the ambience of this place, very classy and modern. Our server greeted us with a beautiful smile and she checked on us very regularly and made sure we were comfortable. Me and my friend ordered a gin cocktail which was more like a gin martini and it was well made for sure. She ordered a pizza which she enjoyed eating. Their menu offers great cocktails along with Polish/ European food. The lady behind us had ordered a cheese board which looked absolutely delicious. Over all me and my friend had a great time here. This place is perfect for a good conservation or even a date night. The service and the vibe were the highlight for me and I would love to come back to try their food menu.
