Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in North Beach

The food is exceptional. Always generous portions and fresh quality. The hostess went out of her way to find us the perfect table to celebrate our Mother’s 90th birthday. Her caring attitude really set a happy tone for the entire evening. Our waiter is Jameson. He made our night even better. Great suggestions, great pairing ideas. Complete awareness of our wants and needs. So happy to have had this waiter for the second time in a row in a 6 month period. I believe it speaks well of the management that the staff remain for extended periods.

Finally a top notch experience. I’ve been there many times before with tourists and others but this was a date, a real date. The Mai Tais were delicious as was the poke appetizer. Both the basil chicken and salmon were very good, the portion size generous. The entertainment was old time tiki bar. The service was efficient, professional and friendly. The setting? There’s only one Tonga Room, the one that we old time San Franciscans can appreciate.

Fabulous food and service! We ordered the “let us cook for you” service and wine progression. Every course was impeccably prepared and presented. Since it was our anniversary, we started with a delicious champagne that had the flavor of garden fruits, like pear and apple. Not being champagne sophisticates, it was a delicious treat, and the wines that followed were all similar treats. Our server, Sanera, other wait staff and sommeliers were as excellent as they were friendly. We will definitely be back!

Great jazz club and restaurant with two stories. We had a table for two next to a large group of young people by the piano and base player so the sound level was loud. After the large group left we could hear each other talk and the music much better. The service was impeccable. The food was very good . The entrance is located down an alley. The young people were dressed very casually but everyone else was dressed up a little. Over all it was a great experience.

Each and every time i come to La Mar, the amazing staff surprise me and take it up another level. I can only pile this high on top of my previous love letters to the place, and tell you to go there, and enjoy!!!
