by Tommy C. on I usually don't write bad reviews because I believe that directing concerns to people who can make a difference is more effective. Reviews are subjective, so why bother? Well, this time is to save your hard earned cash. Don't just take my word for it, read and enlighten yourself. Planned weeks in advance for a friend's Bday. When there IS a Guest List, patrons should learn of it, period. Not being told there isn't and only sold with bottle service, upon arrival only to find out there is a Guest List. Not only does it humiliate me amongst my group of friends that they are stuck outside, but ruins the party and guess what? We spend less money inside and we are not coming back, nor are our friends and their friends and friends of those friends etc. Doesn't sound like lying paid off did it? They have a thing or two to learn from the clubs in Vegas, but who am I kidding, this is not even a Vegas bathroom. I get treated better in those men's room! To top it off with a cherry and a smile, one doorman was a jerk, period. Your job is to safely regulate patrons coming inside to your venue. Your job is also to treat patrons like your boss, because they are! You think working the door on the weekend is hard, try spending hard earned cash at a venue where that money is treated like dirt. Not too shabby of a job now isn't it? Your job for patrons who are already guests, is to make sure they are safely inside and upon exiting. "Come in or Go out!" said Doorman. Is how you treat pests. Make it even better, turn your huge back on us and DO NOT listen to what we are asking at all. Yes you are god, of being a jerk and really helping your venue lose customers. Out of all places in San Francisco, Slide SF I would've have expected more. Given the Co-Owner is Jon Abrams founder of Friendster, now Socializr. To make my first experience filled with; humiliation, frustration, disappointment and anxiety to write a review on a Sunday. This place needs some help. On a good note, the girl Angie/Annie (or started with an A) was very helpful. The other doorman Sean/Shaun/Shawn however you spell, was remarkably polite and understanding. Music was fun, crowd was a good mix and receptive. Drinks were good, not too pricey. Interior was nicely decorated. Would I go back? Maybe not unless I am in the area early and don't have to deal with the Doormans. Paying for bottle service? I would not bother, just go early, get in and have fun then leave.
by Terina Gilhooly on One of the best things about being Jewish is the uncanny love for any Asian cuisine, ordering family style and our endless appetites. So when arriving to Golden Temple as a party of 11 with a reservation, including 5 young children, we were quickly seated and browsing through the several page menu. Who doesn't love family style Chinese dinners? We ordered a table full of appetizers and plates (even some we didn't order) overflowed our table for the main course... and to top off the filling dinner- we got about 5 extra fortune cookies (one with a bad fortune which of course I out of pure coincidence brought home for my roommate-- it made her feel great). Some of the more memorable dishes I tried (good and bad) were Vegetable Tempura (delicious), Chicken Pot Stickers (meh), Crispy Orange Beef (bizarre), Sesame Chicken (typical), Vegetable Lo Mein (good) and Green Tea Buckwheat Spicy Sesame Noodles with Vegetables (this was a dish ordered by another table which arrived to our table- of course we dug in not remembering we didn't order it- and it was not good..) The waiter seemed frantic and yelling at us the whole time- not yelling angrily- but yelling frantically. Granted you have a loud table of 11- but we didn't order specific dishes so all he had to do was take our order and bring it out. The wait was longer than it probably should have been to get the food- but when you have great company- you barely notice (I barely noticed..). So overall- it was good- Sunday nights didn't include dancing, so I had to stay in my seat, but I was satisfied with the evening. And the best fortune of the night? 'If you're still hungry, eat another fortune cookie.'
by Charmain Haza on The BEST venue in the city. Granted I am a retro gent and this is 100% up my alley. The atmosphere is unbeatable. The colors, the nice hardwood dance floor, elevated tables, candle lit, great old wood bar in the lounge, bars all around. Great tables along the side and in the back half of the room. The room itself is ballroom size and the dance floor is 1/3 of the room. Dancing room is fine for the openers, but headliners make the dance floor too crowded to enjoy. The lounge area is a great are to sit and have a respit. Even when the lounge entertains a band, the sound is steady and clear. The main rooms sound is not amazing nor state of the art, but it is distinct and more than adequate. This is no SLIMS. The drinks are standard club fair, would be nice if they elevated the drink quality. The staff is a sticking a point.The bartenders tend to be a bit slow, not overly attentive and have poor cocktail knowledge, a definite minus. The Security Staff is capable but extremely rude and unpleasant. The best you can hope from them is business like. It would be nice to have the classic attention to service and etiquette as the room demands, but while buildings maintain their soul, society continues to lose theirs. The cocktail staff varies widely as there is large turnover, so thats rather a crap shoot. I will go here when ever I can. Sadly the call is minimal as they scarcely have good shows any more. All in all, my favorite despite the surface flaws. I can only end by saying" boy'o if I owned this joint I'd make it so all the kats and kittens would not want to be anywhere else. "
