Very good service and good song list. However, English songs are a bit hard to navigate. I came here several times with my friends and one of them was a mini goodbye party to friend before jetting off to Japan to study aboard.

Sound quality here is always wanting and beer prices are normal for a beer ($7 for KSA) but only 12 oz pours .

Pretty cool small venue! Saw Teen Daze here and the setup and sound were quite good. Bouncers / security at the door were super cool and they have a nice selection of taps. Lots of seats around the edge and wide stage.

Was a amazing night. Was Liniker e os Caramellos. She a amazing singer!

Discovered this venue during an amateur comedy night showing. The venue is 2 storey with an open stage and bar area on each floor.Good place and atmosphere for groups or solo. There is always live music or some performance going on depending on the night. Highly recommend if you are in the Inner Richmond area.

Nice venue. I enjoyed the music and the place looks very nice. I would definitely come back again for a concert

Monday night salsa was advertised as $10 cover but when we got there they said $10 is the online price only and charged us $20 per person cover instead. This kind of pricing is shady if you ask me and off-putting to the idea of returning.Besides that the club is pretty nice and the crowd was good on Monday night.

This place is an awesome venue! Went to the Julie Plug Reunion concert with some friends. They let you grab some snacks but I’m sure that’s going to change when the kitchen opens up. I hope they have an excellent menu in store given how cool the venue is. I am really excited to see what they will serve. There’s a bar for each floor. I got a chance to meet the owner, who is pretty cool as well.

Lively venue with a looot of space and the events there are decent. Don’t have too high of expectations for the comedy shows because they’re probably still trying out new material but still such a good time.

Great place to listen to live music. Reasonably priced drinks, nice waitstaff and dive bar ambiance.

Its a nice little divey bar with a daily event is what looks like. Love the vibe and always has a nice event to go spend time at

Great live music, perfect for open mic for artists to practice, their art and or make a swaying crowd. Alot of seats and great lighting. Californias burning baby! Solos and groups, performances of people jumping through mental hoops.

Great bar and great venue. Very intimate!

I went there to see the stand up show of a Venezuelan guy, Led Varela, and I had a lot of fun. The staff was nice, their bar was good but the place looks a bit run down.

Wonderful venue. As a patron they have pretty good drink prices and theres great food all around for when the drunk munchies hit.As a performer the stages are great. The sound system is wonderful. There is a backlined bass amp for use. But the sound engineers sometimes are lacking in ability.

No woods, some necks. Much much Russian karaoke and cool free to play games (skiball, Pacman etc) and reasonably priced drinks that are surprisingly well crafted. Did I mention Russian karaoke? How about the Russian karaoke, Kara oke!!Давайте веселиться

Different day, different events. Every Friday Russian karaoke night . Tuesdays open mike and comedy. Good bar with another venue upstairs with different event. Cover ranges from free -20$ depending on event.

An intimate and classic bar setting to listen to live music and see live comedy. Nothing real special but great for seeing local and lesser known talent.

Over crowded. The bar was quick service which was good (sorry for the low score, not bars fault) cool spot but if youre trying more intimate...Oakland is where its at

Good place to hangout in the city for after hours. Friday night is Russian Karaoke time

Oversold the event. The crowd went to the stairs. Fire safety hazard. Not handi-accessible.

Great bar! Dark, good demographic, karaoke, stuff cheap drinks. Fun!

Tons of awesome games to play and some good beer options you dont get everywhere.

Good spot for Salsa dancing in San Franciaco on Monday nights. The floor needs work and some of the carpeting specially by the bar replaced.

Cool environment and my man didnt have id but they still let him in ..FYI he is over 21..js

Awesome karaoke on Tuesday nights. No cover, great mics, huge screens, and you get to show off to your friends and whomever else is there. The few times that Ive gone, a larger crowd usually gathers closer to 11 or midnight, as the salsa class upstairs ends and the late night partiers roll in.

Great intimate setting to listen to your fave artist or to listen to your soon-to-be fave artist! There are 2 floors so its a hike up if your artist is upstairs. It got annoying for me towards the end of the evening because I have a physical disability but i like to believe theres NO REST FOR THE WICKED! LOL! Check it out and let me know what you think.

Such a cool neighborhood bar. Very chill. Make sure you attend one of those Sunday stand up comedy! Great way to spend Sunday night .

It was the best Russian party in San Francisco! I had very good time!!! Thanks for everything!!!

Pretty standard dueling piano bar. Sunday night drink specials are generous for Southern San Francisco. They could certainly stand to increase the number of wait staff. Rocking out without a drink = No Buenos!I would return, but they could improve their operations.

Went to go see Gates of Light for the first time and it was a great experience! They have plenty of entertainment from the tvs to the bar and games, and two (upstairs and downstairs) stages for live performances. And if you want to lounge they also have semi private seating upstairs. Very cool place, nice venue. Will definitely be back!

Amazing place!!! I took my sister and 7 girls here for her bachelor party and they made it so special! They brought her on stage,played great music, and the food was incredible.

Cool place to listen to some music. Also great place for comedy show.

A nice little hole in the wall bar. Bartender was friendly. went for a comedy show. half were funny other half were practicing

Cozy, eclectic music club with great staff

Best sound in town! Love this venue!

Best New Years Eve ever!

Great show venue and bar. Ive only been there for the salsa social dance Monday nights

Great dive bar to do Russian karaoke on a Saturday night.

Great venue, awesome security, awesome bar staff, great atmosphere, just dont acted entitled, respect the staff and yall have great time.

Great place! Especially it is fun when Russian karaoke takes place! Very good bar to visit!

Dj.Shant is absolutely amazing. Drinks can be better:(

Great venue for live music. Clean bathrooms.

The setting of the speaker is not ideally good. Just good venue.

Wonderful place to Salsa on a Monday night. :)

Um...ancient hiatory:i wuz told this used 2b robin williams, the comedian from Marin countys hangout after he graduated from NYCZ Julliard Schools division of acting. Glad he was my favorite comedian, and the tunnel is named after this generous man that with Whoopi Goldberg, started fun in Golden Gate Park, like a fundraising awareness for joy, during the early sad AIDS unknown medication 1988? days?...Anyway, kewl some ol timer could educate rita!!!

Beginner class said it was free, we still paid 10$ pp. They said it would take half na hour, after 15 minutes the teacher left. I mean we learned fast and the basic steps are easy, so for that its fine. People themself were gentle.

Good standup comedy line

I attended Monday night salsa - 7pm Beginner, 8:30pm Intermediate, and 9:30pm Open Dance. ($20 for all)There were about 30 people in the dancing area, which was just a tad too small so I definitely ran into people several times throughout the night.Beginner class is far too easy and repetitive for anyone who picks up on basic steps decently quickly. Instructors just go over 4 steps: basic, side, Cuban, and right turn. Most people could get those down in 5 minutes versus the 1.5 hours they allow for.Intermediate class was decently challenging, and we got a lot of time to practice before open dance. Format is guys stand in circle, and girls form smaller circle within guys circle. Instructors teach a few steps and then you practice with a partner. Guys rotate every few minutes so you get to dance with everyone in the room.Open dance was way more fun here than it was at the only other place Ive tried - Atmosphere (in North Beach). The crowd is much more diverse at Neck of the Woods, and the leads are WAY more experienced. I didnt realize until I came here that followers just need to know the basics - a good lead pretty much takes all the hard work out of it!So 4 stars for experienced, diverse crowd and decent intermediate class. If it werent so far from downtown I would come back every week.

Nice bar in Inner Richmond. Frequent host of standup comedy shows, in partnership with Hella Funny. Check out the Sunday night Crazy Funny Asians show (Jan-Apr 2019). Theres a range of seating options. Full bar, but no kitchen.

Great cover bands. Usually has a cover charge particularly when bands are playing. Good selection of beer.

Awesome bar with an excellent Open Mic Night on Wednesdays!Spacious by SF standards, and pretty decent drinks. Had a Long Island Iced Tea with Bombay Sapphire, it was smooth and did the trick. The featured act that night was amazing, the sound system blew my ears off, loved it.

The salsa classes are extremely beginner friendly. However, I do wish they offered hand sanitiser and the choreography to be updated a bit.

I was at Neck of the Woods last night, Sunday 2-17-2019 for the comedy show to meet my friends. I was orderly, respectful, and had a good time but when I went to order my first drink; the jokes were spot on and I was laughing a lot and the bouncer pictured in this attachment in the glasses aside the door in this picture mistakenly thought I was intoxicated and escorted me out. I peacefully complied and followed the bouncer out of the building. When I got to the outside, he began shoving me in a violent fashion and the man pictured in the quilted dark blue jacket with pale yellow shoulders also pictured here (who stunk of low quality cocaine) joined in, yelled, and pushed me as well, with your doorman doing nothing to intervene that assault.I am still shaken by the events of last night; it will take a week to recover from these injuries. Your events venue needs to have better protocols at identifying intoxicated patrons and using a gentler removal of them. I did not deserve to be treated in this fashion. The use of force in this situation was excessive and unnecessary. It did not warrant any pushing and because of the scene this bouncer caused, it prompted the provocations of others that were strung out and in no way needed to be involved and escalated the violence.Not only do I want this publicly known, Im also filing a police report with the SFPD.

Excellent open mic on Wednesday evenings.

Fun bar with live music acts. Drinks are a little pricey for the size in my opinion.

Casual. Easy. The food is great. Thanks team Eat415

Love the Salsa classes, they are so much fun. The place could use a makeover. There is a dance floor upstairs and down stairs. There is also a bar upstairs and downstairs. Upstairs is salsa on Mondays. Sometimes they have live salsa which is nice. Monday classes start at 7 for beginners and 830 for intermediate dancers. The 930 open dance.

I had a good time there no complaints

Best comedy show in SF

I go for Salsa lessons on Monday. Nice group of people. Fun classes.

Fun, free games, great music, and fair prices in a nice setting

Cool 2-story venue. Management sometimes oversell tix and it can get too crowded to enjoy (lines to get a drink, restrooms, no room to dance, etc). Security at the door tends to be rude

The acoustics are good enough for me to appreciate the music.

Great Salsa nights on Monday for social dancing and a lesson before hand.

Perfect for people who dont like big crowds and not have to get all dressed up. Lol

Ive had the pleasure of many types of events at Neck of the Woods from live music to salda dancing. The service is always great and every time I visit, I dance away with great memories. Halloween is really fun here!

It is a nice place to start learning to dance. Even though it is over crowded and hard to move without someone stepping on your feet or punching you in the face.Mens room never has hand washing soup either.

Ive been here three times to watch the Popstar Booty Camp perform and I always enjoy it. Decent selection of beer.

Used to be the Rockit Room and before that, the Last Day Saloon. Beautiful spot, lots of room upstairs. Could be a great venue, but lots of drunk Russian gangsters hang around outside smoking, especially on Karaoke nights.

Great show, Thrive and Sol Horizon killed it! Good drinks and service!

Great cozy venue for live music! Also a spacious bar downstairs that you can hang out at without necessarily going to the live music show upstairs. Friendly staff and patrons .

Great venue for live music. Good selection of beers on tap. Even though they dont serve food, you can get something and bring it in to eat with the cocktail you ordered at the bar. Tuesdays is karaoke night with Wednesday being their Open Mic night. The Open Mic starts with a jam session where anyone can go up and play or sing or rap.Their upper music space is better than the bottom. The bar on the bottom is better than the one at the upper music venue. The upper venue has good places to sit and talk. My suggestion is to put a little more sofas along the walls between the bar and the stage. The drink specials like happy hour are standard.They have video games on the first level. I observed that they get unused. I suggest that they take them out and either extend the bar area or put lounge style seats there. It would help a lot and keep people there longer. The bathrooms could use some new fixtures.My only complaint is that there is no kitchen or food they serve. Maybe partnering with a local business or food truck might be worthwhile. If they have some food at their business, it would draw more people in and keep them in longer.

Very nice club for grown folks.

Taco tuesdays before 7 is where its at. The female bartender is so sweet and attentive.

Good venue. Went to Russian karaoke on Saturday night. Bar is not bad.

Very cool bar and music venue. Weve seen some great shows here. The place has a large upstairs space with a stage, dancing area and bar. They also have a smaller downstairs space with a bar and stage, as well as a few games. The Wednesday evening open mic is really cool too, a great place to meet friendly musicians.

Cool venue but not great when they have to shows going on at once you can hear whats going on upstairs, downstairs and its distracting

New Years Eve great show. Stayed until closing

Good place to practice salsa.

Awesome atmosphere. Laid back and comfortable. Super friendly staff :)

Great shows to be seen here

Small venue. Limited seating if on lower level. Could use more help as service is slow and self service.

Comedy night was fun

Small but cozy. With lots of games and entertainment plus a good bar.

Small cosy place. I went there for my friends open mic event, the crowd was very encouraging and supporting of the performance. Good place for amateurs to get some stage time.

Fun simple venue for concerts. The sound was relatively good and the servers were friendly and helpful. The stage is mid-sized and there were tables and chairs around the outside when I attended, which was nice for taking a break throughout the show.

Best live music in the Richmond. Could use more seating though so arrive early if you dont want to stand all night.

Monday nights for salsa fun. Just come ready to dance or be entertained by dancers. Many great dancers in house from all over. Enjoy

Great bar tender and karaoke dj

Only thing is they need more of a air conditioning system, it was so hot! Everything else was great

I love this place. Different events, reasonably priced drinks, nice crowd

Good place to practice your salsa steps and not worry if you are a novice * MONDAY *

Fun to see comics refine their craft

Divvy comedy spot and decent bartenders

Superb bartender and stiff drinks!

Great bar. Good choice of music before open mic night (alt/pop punk/post hardcore)

Fun show and good venue.

In a fun two level bar, there is a traditional bar downstairs and a great stage upstairs, this bar has a lot to offer in the Inner Richmond. I really liked the decor which was simple but they had a couch/sitting area behind a wall upstairs. It made for a great spot to sit and talk while a band was playing. There is a second bar upstairs so no need to grab a drink downstairs before you head to watch a show. My only complaint was that the night I went they only served Dos XX and Guinness for beer. I know that Dos XX was sponsoring the concert but that was a disappointment. Hope its not like that all the time.

Sunday nights (Hella Funny) is a great time, and no cover, letting you tip the comics.
