***Best Jazz Club in the City, by San Francisco Magazine***Mr. Tipple’s is a craft cocktail bar featuring live jazz.-Reservations have a 90min time limit from reservation time. There is a $20/guest min for table serviceMr. Tipple’s heralds back to a 1950s NYC basement. Cozy. Dark. Boozy. The intimate setting features local jazz artists up close and personal. It’s a joint where you come as you are, hear great music, tap your toes, and sip a properly chilled cocktail.-My name is Mr. Tipple. Just a simple and laughable bloke hailing from London. I run a recording studio. My friends joke that you’ll oft find me spinning cocktails, not reeling tape. After a few too many, I usually just sit back and enjoy the music, having forgotten to hit record. Regardless, the band is always jiving, the whiskey is always cold, and we’re having a smashing good time.

    The kale chaat, chicken momos, garlic naan, and dhanding chicken were highlights. Seafood curry was not the best. Ambiance is great, also great cocktails!

    I usually order the pappardelle, but this time I opted for the tagliatelle. The dish was generous with olives, which isn’t my thing -but I’m glad I tried it. Pappardelle remains my all-time favorite, followed by the cappelletti and Tamarin al Tartufo Nero. Oh, and the Zabaglione is a wonderful way to end the meal! The food and wine selection, the staffers, and the ambience all make this place one of our favorites.

    LGBT FRIENDLY! My girlfriend and I had their 12 course valentine’s day omakase special with a sake flight. Service was so kind and thoughtful. I mentioned that it was our 1 year anniversary and they ended off our meal with a slice of cheesecake & snapped a polaroid photo of us as a memory to take home. BEST SUSHI & LITTLE BITES EVER. We will be back!
