Wow what a great ending to a nice evening with friends.
While sipping some champagne and conversing with friends I had the great idea to pick up a rose falling from the central vase. I put it in my hair and all my friends complimented me on how well it matched what I was wearing.
Right away the bouncer, with no life of his own, came and literally threw me and my friends out of the club, but n...
This is a nice spot to go hang out and have a night on the town. The music is nice and the drinks are good.
I have been to Harry Denton's Starlight Room on several occassions. The president of the company I use to work for loved going here whenever he was in SF so we would make sure it was on his schedule. It was great music, beautiful views, and lots of fun.
We have been at the Starlight Room several times with friends and co-workers. This place always had live band playing during the time we have visited. My husband had a company party at the Sir Francis Drake Hotel and everyone enjoyed dancing and lounging in the Starlight Room.
PROS: Great music and crowd
CONS: Parking is difficult, unless you use their valet service
In 1968 when I lived in SFO.. I was a poor Irish Lass struggling to make ends meet. I love to go to the bars after work. Don't think HARRY'S was around back then. It would have been my place.. where they knew my name, and I could sit and chat with the guys after work. Anything on Powell or Golden Gate would have been on my way home. I wish, I wish, I could be there now. I would walk in...
Harry's is a must for Sunday Brunch! The Buffet is out of this world and not to mention the "girls"!
Drag has never been so main stream....way to go Harry!
OK so this place has nice decor a great views......BUT!!! Unless u like watching fat bouncers dance to techno, and old people undressing you with their eyes DO NOT GO!!! The place is filled with OLD PEOPLE. It looks more like a upscale nursing home than a club/lounge. The biggest disappointment was the BOUNCER AT THE DOOR. He was such a little wh0re and needs to be fired. Wait no, don't fire him....
on a clear night, the starlight room is beautiful.. the views are that is. otherwise, it just feels like you're partying up in heaven. i have 2 completely different experiences. once, i noticed that most of the crowd consisted of old men and young girls.. enough said! and the other time, it was super packed, the ceilings were sweating and you couldn't get to the bar for at least 20 minutes.. the ...
But that is about it. My boyfriend and I came here on vacation and had the very best time........however the nightlife in SF had really let us down. Maybe we were in the wrong area, but we went to 5 different places and none were great. This place we thought would be nice considering the location, and when we walked in the place was very pretty with a great view. However, thats about it. The crow...
So if you don't have a booth reserved don't bother going. I had a friend come in town from San Diego so I took her there last minute on a Wednesday night, thus we did not have a booth. There was no where to sit down which would have been fine if we were permitted to STAND or exist however. Unless we were dancing bouncers were ordering us to "keep moving". We felt like a herd of cattle. The l...
The band was awful. I asked for a vodka tonic and got a gin and tonic. When I told the bartender, he made the drink again but it was a vodka and soda (big difference). Selection of beers is pathetic and the diet coke was flat. Nice location, attractive surroundings, great view, but not worth the $15 cover.
I went there with my date last tnight and the place was packed on a Wednesday night! Free for girls, $20 for guys! drinks are good, but expect a wait tat the bar. View were awesome and DJ did a great job.
Good place if you don/t mind an older crowd. Drinks are not so cheap. Music is good and view is excellent
My wife and I always enjoy the Starlight Room when we are in the city. Must make reservations to guarantee a table. Their light affair style menu is excellent, always very well presented. We have never been disappointed with the entertainment and the clientele is excellent. It was a little disappointing that they did not enforce a better dress code as some customers were dressed very casual, ...
It took us about 30 minutes to get drinks, they gave us the wrong drinks, and they were expensive and tasted like there could have been maybe a drop of alcohol in it. The bouncers were rude and literally yelled at us!! And the dance floor was overcrowded with sweaty people. Do not go!
I was there with 6 friends after we just got there and got some drinks, the staff scream at us cuz we are staying on their way to the dance floor. It was pretty full for us to go anywhere else. I think for the money we paid to get in there, talking to us more nicely would have been very apreciated. Other than that the vue is gorgeous. But I will never go back.
We came from Sweden and had the best time here. I met Todd a gret guy and no I can´t find him.... anybody now him....
He likes mojito, has dark hair and workes with insurances.... I think.
Help me, need to get a hold of him

This is one of those places you need to go at least once (or more) if you are in San Francisco. It?s a classic spot not really a bar but a high class joint that you can take that someone special and really show then the best side of San Francisco. The bar is located in downtown San Francisco and sits atop the Sir Fances Drake so you are pretty much guaranteed the best view in town. The d?cor of t...
After dinner my wife and I stopped in for a drink about 10:00 P.M. while while SF last summer. It was Friday night and the place was full, the band was superb and we had a simply great time!! Somewhere about 3:00 A.M., my wife reminded me that it had been over 24 hours since we had slept. We were having too much fun to leave. This is a great place with great drinks, great views, a classy, dre...
My girlfriend and are of the middle aged crowd and we loved this place. It was very dim, very romantic. The live band played a mix of fast and slow R&B hits from the 70's and 80's. We haven't found a place like this where we can slow dance. A great place to take your sweetie.
My wife and I visited SF in August. It was one of the best vacations we've ever taken. We decided to end the trip by making reservations, getting decked out, aand visiting the Starlight Room.
What a let down.
The foodwas good, but the service was horrible. It was a special night for us, and we wanted to end the trip on a high note. It didn't happen.
The wait staff, from the hostess at the do...
This place is great for a romantic lite dinner and drinks. Interesting setting, food was good, and drinks were wonderful. Live jazz went well with the setting and atmosphere.
Sure, this legendary SF spot can be rather kitchy at times-- but I'd have to say it is a great place to stop for a drink and an even greater place to take tourists-- as there is a great aerial view of the Union Square.
