      15 Romelo is such a nice bar to spend the night in North Beach at! I came around 9pm on Friday, and it was not packed like some of the other North Beach bars, but had a good number of people to keep the energy up. It's tucked away in an alley so it's hard to find unless you're mapping there specifically.

      The bartender was very friendly and I loved all the drinks we got. Highly recommend if you're looking for a spot more intimate but lively to have a drink!

      Last stop during our night out and it was the perfect end-point. Super chill vibes, dimly lit but also packed in a good way. The bartender was hilarious and totally went along with us asking for a single shot that is good, but also strong but also different but also 10 other things.

      All in all, we'll be back!

      Trendy spot tucked away in an alley in North Beach. Easy to miss unless you're looking for it, so even though it was at full capacity on Friday night, there was no line at the door. Service was pretty quick. Really dark, but wasn't super noisy, so conversations were easy to have.

      Our group only stopped in for one round. I tried the Aphrodite, which I liked. It seemed my friends generally liked their choices, too. I'd be interested to try more of the menu (drink and food), maybe experience the vibe at the bar, and update my review in the future. There's a jukebox and tiny photo booth in the corner by the front door. Seems to be a solid choice if you're looking for somewhere more intimate and laidback.

      I've always known 15 Romolo is a super cool spot (dark, trendy speakeasy vibe with photo booth and jukebox) to grab a drink, but this was my first time trying their food! I usually get the Pimm's Cup to drink, but this time I enjoyed their one red wine option (it was good) and we also had the delicious truffled papas bravas (potato wedges).
      Service was pretty fast and we were mostly left alone unless we needed something, which was very nice and European :p
      Always worth a visit!

      15 Romolo Cocktail Bar is a hidden gem. Upon arriving, I was greeted by the exceptional bartender Gabriel, who not only mixed me a fantastic Pimm's cocktail, but also made me feel right at home. The bar boasts a relaxing atmosphere that was perfect for my pup Nero and Seneca to unwind after a long day of adventures.

      I must add that the bar is doggy friendly and the staff went above and beyond to make sure Nero and Seneca was comfortable and well-cared for.

      This bar is not to be missed for anyone looking for an unforgettable experience filled with delicious drinks and great conversation. I will definitely be returning and sharing my experience with others.

      I had to leave a review for the bartender mostly. He was super efficient and really nice. The drink was delicious and the atmosphere is great. It was our last bar of the night and definitely a good way to end the SF trip.

      I forget the bartenders name but if you see this, thanks for giving my friends and me a great night.

      Really like this place. It's kinda like a dive bar mixed with a speakeasy. Tucked away in an alley (Romolo), I've never struggled to find a seat and the cocktails are always super high quality.

      If you're looking for a spot that is not like your typical north beach bar, 15 romolo is a great place to check out located in the alley above the Hungry I club. This spot is found off the beaten path and more intimate. The vibe is moody and sensual, great for dates or small groups. And if you're hungry they have a kitchen which offer top notch bar food.

      Bartenders Rob, Kevin and Gabe definitely know their drinks which are delicious and give excellent customer service. There's a jukebox and the bartenders love hearing any Hall & Oates song! Pimm's cup is one of their staples. I tried their lancelot link and dad fashion which were excellently made. And if you need a pick me up, they also serve an espresso martini which is also good.

      Came here for some drinks after dinner and a show in the area. The menu for their house cocktails is limited but they can pretty much make anything. They also serve food!

      I ordered a whiskey sour and you know it's a legit spot when they have egg whites for it! The drink was good although a tad sweet - but still good! Drinks are more on the expensive side here too. Still a cool spot to check out!
