Jackie Woods: Great place to get a delicious cocktail, especially if you love rum. Go early it's a small bar and will fill up fast. Worth the wait. Try a El Draque or Smugglers Cove signature drink in a Rum Barrel.
Jason Cross: Drinks you'll love: sidewinder's fang, chi chi pache, corn and oil, hot buttered rum, smugglers rum barrel.
Zack Sheppard: Definitely one of the best Tiki bars in the world, the competence with which they blend divey with quality is jaw-dropping. Try their Mai Tai or the Smuggler's Secret Barrel cocktail.

Vikas Vadlapatla: Ask for the Mint Mocha Mojito and get it with their Ambrosia brew!
Manik Rathee: Always expect a line. This place is super busy, for good reason. Some of the best coffee around. Get the Mint Mojito Iced Coffee, sweet and creamy - you won't be disappointed.

Helen: Fave coffee spot in SF, with 4 locations all over the city now, maybe more? Try the New Manhattan with a sweet pastry. I'm not so into sweet, but Iced Mint Mojito and Iced Ginger Snap are great too!
Paola Cuevas: Mocha tesora and iced coffee mojito are delicious! One of the best coffees I've ever tried

Blair Hanley Frank: Try the Mai Tai Float–a cool riff on a tiki classic.
Eater: Daniel Parks and Justin D’Olier are heading up the project as managers, offering crafty tiki drinks like a mai tai on the rocks, and the “bird of paradise” made with passion fruit whipped cream. Read more.
Staff Picks: Elaborate libations in a below deck ambience give this tiki inspired lounge an entertaining edge in Downtown San Fran. As far as boozy beverages go, guests rave about the Potion #9 and Mai Tai float. Read more.
Mike Postma: The bands playing, people are dancing, and your tasting one of the best damn Mai Tais in the land. Soak it in my friend and enjoy. If you don't lose yourself a little bit, you haven't done it right
Tyler McPheeters: The band on the boat is fun (loud) but the amazing Mai Tai drinks are worth every penny!
Jon Manning: Tasty mai tais, and the band that plays on the "lake" is wonderful and ridiculous.
