A rare, blistering hot weekend in the city calls for a dark room and a very cold drink. Skip the crowded, sun-drenched patios and trade your way into the AC. We are pouring all night behind the hidden door in SOMA. Secure your spot before the dining room fills up.

If you can look past the millennial pause at the beginning of this video, you will see some real magic. Brussels sprout salad, bold wines, and craft cocktails appearing out of thin air. The real trick is finding the hidden door. Make your trade at the window and join us for the best underground dining experience in San Francisco tonight.

The lighting is low, but the standards are not. Once you make your trade at the window and step into the dining room, this is what is waiting for you. From the perfectly seared cuts to the bold, crisp textures, our tapas are designed for a long night in the underground.

Claim your table and let us handle the rest.

The perfect duo for a night behind the hidden door. Meet the Uno Rivera and the Canon Del Amor. One brings a bright, sharp mix of elderflower liquor, crisp Cava, grapefruit, bitters, and fresh lime. The other deepens the profile with Porto Branco, vibrant blood orange, lemon, and bubbly wine. You handle the trade at the door; we will handle the pours.

Rainy weekends in the city were made for hidden speakeasies. Warm tapas, dark corners, and cocktails that make you forget about the weather outside. But a quick word to the wise from the Pawn Master: do not make the trek through the wet SOMA streets only to get turned away at the door

Secure your reservation now, grab your umbrella, and start thinking about what you are going to pawn to get inside.

Meet the Uno Rivera. We balance the sweet, floral notes of elderflower liquor with dry Cava, tart grapefruit, a dash of bitters, and fresh lime. Bright, bubbly, and dangerously refreshing. It is exactly what you need after negotiating your way past the Pawn Master.

Crafted and poured by our brilliant bartender, .dj

The weekend is almost, reservations are always recommended.

SOMEONE BROUGHT A WHAT!?
The Pawn Master is a tough negotiator, and while we see a lot of wild things traded at the door, every once in a while a trade stops us in our tracks and goes straight to the Hall of Fame. When we tell you to bring something to pawn, some of you take the assignment very seriously. This talented guest actually custom-made an engraved wooden diamond plaque just to get past the door, and it is absolute perfection. We love when you get creative with your entry fee, and this level of dedication to the hustle is unmatched. It’s officially finding a permanent home on our shelves. Thank you for the incredible piece—you’ve secured VIP trading status. What are you bringing to the door tonight?

Thank you Zoe
