Occasionally I find myself saying a silent "thank you" to the vagaries of fate that kept Bacar from going the way of so many other Dot.Com boom restaurants that opened and just as quickly shut South of Market. In fact, I think Bacar has only gotten better with time. You can actually get a table within a reasonable amount of time without a reservation, you no longer have to fight through 6 layers of young professionals to get a drink at the bar, and, based on my last visit, the food has improved, too.

Bacar can be hit or miss. Luckily, tonight we caught it at it’s best. I got the diver scallops ($17.00) which were seared and presented on a cloud of cauliflower puree with slivers of fried garlic.

A well done converted warehouse with attitude. Three floors, open floorplan, big booths, good food and a KILLER wine list. It all makes for a good time. Best part about this place? You can taste some SERIOUSLY expensive wine that is typically sold by the bottle only in smaller decanters. The FLIGHTS of wine rock too, try Italian, French, Californian, you name it.

This past Wednesday night, I headed to bacar restaurant with a colleague. We had thought we might try the DAT menu, but as it turned out, we both ordered a la carte.

I decided to use the occasion of reviewing an Australian Shiraz as an excuse to bring together a group of good friends at San Francisco Restaurant Bacar, where on the first Monday of every month (except December), they sell nearly all of their bottles of wine at half the menu price. This is an exciting prospect as Bacar sells over 1000 wines by the bottle. Their wine menu is a hefty tome and this stylish brick wood and glass restaurant features an impressive wine wall where you can see all of the bottles piled sky-high. In a casual mood, we opted to sit at the bar, so those in the party who did not want to eat would feel more comfortable.
