Céleste

In the market for an obscenely sexy, “let’s look hot and run into my ex” night? All roads lead to Céleste. The wine bar (by the people behind Bodega and Key Klub) is Union Street’s most trafficked place for anyone who has an espresso martini punch card at Balboa and/or pays for a hot yoga membership. They’re here to sip on heavy pours of wines, described with phrases like “pillow talk” and “babe town,” and soak in the vibey atmosphere with blue laser projections and red bathroom tiles. This place will make you feel like you’re at a nightclub outside of SF—at least until you overhear a conversation about diamond cuts and the reality of actually being in Cow Hollow sets in. After hours of bobbing your head to The Weeknd, you’ll probably get hungry, so spend quality time with their good Mediterranean small plates, like crudos, labneh, and grilled skewers.
