The Mortimer - San Francisc

I was staying at the hotel here and me and my sister came down for something to eat. It wasn't great, the fries weren't cooked all the way through and the pizza was okay. But the people that work down there are nice and to be honest, I'd probably eat there again if I stayed at that hotel in the future. They have a lot of different options for a hotel restaurant!

My daughter, Wesley Straton, writes on bars and bartenders; I have been to highly rated bars all over the world in her company. I am always looking for a truly new and tantalizing cocktail to tell her about. I hit cocktail gold in this bar. Luis Ramirez has been running this bar for less than a year but he created an extensive cocktail menu that was worth going through one by one. The first I ordered was Bananahattan. I don't really like Bananas but I had heard Luis makes all his own syrups and infusions so I felt it would tell me about his skill. I found his skill is phenomenal but does not surpass his passion for satisfying the curious palate or his dedication to personal service. When he realized he did not have bananas behind the bar and could not get any from the Adagio's kitchen; he ran a busboy down to a local tienda to get some. I only waited 5 additional minutes for my very crafty cocktail. I had never ate caramelized banana before but now I wanted to cover a flan with them and serve it to the queen. And the cocktail its self was not banana forward at all, the pinot noir syrup was like a fine sherry, the bigalet china china was immediately transferred to my shopping list. Luis is a Cocktail artiste (with the final e standing for Excellence). Bartender hall of fame. And in less than a year he has made 3 of these menus and shared his expertise and encouragement for experimentation to his coworkers. As much as it might seem I have said, it is not the half of it. I have never had a such an attentive bartender and his attention was being extended generously to everyone at the bar.

Delicious breakfast! I Servers were nice and food came quick.

Luis is a god! Really awesome cocktails that he adapts to his guests. The mood he creates brings a great atmosphere to the crowd.

Awoke late from exhausting day, found very few good restaurants open after 830 pm in Union Square area. The Mortimer was literally down the street and did not disappoint! Awesome bartender waited on us as we sat at the bar. Ordered salad with New York Steak my wife ordered salmon. Both of us were very happy with our meals and service.
