San Francisco is renowned for its innovative take on Asian cuisine, and there is no better place to experience it than at chef Charles Phan's legendary, family-owned The Slanted Door restaurant. Located in the iconic Ferry Building in the SoMa waterfront district, The Slanted Door is wildly popular with locals and international foodies from lunchtimes through to late in the evenings. This 54 person-capacity cocktail lounge and wine bar has developed a drink philosophy to pair with the restaurant’s award-winning food. Expect bright, crisp and acidic cocktails with ingredients sourced from small purveyors. Try the bar-favorite “Pisco Apricot Tropical” made from Marian Farms California-style Pisco, Small Hand Foods pineapple gum, apricot brandy, lime, and Angostura bitters. The more adventurous may try the intriguing “Summer on the Danube” with prosecco and high-grade Biodynamic elderflower syrup. The Slanted Door also offers one of the city's best places for wine and other drinks, where the bar team are well-meshed within San Francisco’s nightlife scene and are always looking for new ways to innovate and impress.
