THE REVIEWS ARE CORRECT - DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AT HARLOT!!!! A good friend of mine had planned to celebrate her birthday here . . . she got a guestlist and was told everyone on the list could get in. Before her birthday night, I read a bunch of rateclub reviews that said, "Harlot ruined my/my friend's birthday!" I was SO close to saying something to the birthday girl about what I had read, but decided to keep quiet as it seemed she had her heart set on coming to this club (no idea WHY though). I thought maybe it would be different for us. Well I thought wrong!!!! When we got to the club (at a decent time ~10.30, and with the "correct" guy/girl ratio), the Moby-look-alike at the door told us there was no list with our names on it and that we couldn't get in, although there were maybe five other people in line. We were on our way down the street to find another club, when we were told to just wait in line and we could get in in five minutes. After about ten minutes of waiting, we finally figured out that we would never be able to get in, so we decided to find somewhere else to go. We ended up bar-hopping down in SOMA, ending up at XYZ at the W. If we had known that Harlot would be SUCH A HORRIBLE INSTITUTION, we wouldn't have wasted our time to come all the way down to Market and 2nd. DO NOT GO TO HARLOT!!!!

This is when it really clicked for me: San Francisco must be the best place in the entire world. London and New York are great. Paris must surely be lovely. But I am no longer in any doubt - after 4 glasses of really good honey wine (better than at other places) and a savory plate of truly healing Ethiopian food infused with Love, truth and sincerity - that San Francisco is the most beautiful, most vibrant, most alive city in the world - a gift and a blessing to the entire human family. We cannot achieve pure divinity or nirvana in this life, but we can live in San Francisco and go to Club Waziema, and that's good enough for me right now. I went in here feeling bad from an earlier heavy lunch, and left feeling great! What more could you ask? This transformative effect gets them 5 stars regardless of any concerns about decor. I almost didn't go because of some of the snotty reviews on here. But I found the food to be super delicious, the other customers to be unusually friendly, and the service to be just fine. I'm a little confused by the negative reviews here on Rateclub. So let me address them: Cleanliness: this place is actually spotless. The tables, floors, bar, walls - even the red velvet wallpaper. How do they do that? Do they use a steam cleaner on that 30-year-old velvet? I don't know, but there's not a spot or a cobweb. "More of a bar than a restaurant": Well, it's more of a restaurant than many fast food places. I can see the kitchen from where I sit at the bar (it is spotless too). Yes, the decor is a hodge-podge, and it's dim like a bar, but it's clean, and the food smells and tastes great. Am I the only one who noticed the Christmas wreaths on the front wall??? They are plastic holly, just like my grandma used to have! And yes, they are clean and cobweb-free too. "Jukebox needs updating": NO! Please keep it as it is!! This was totally surreal. I heard everything from Louis Armstrong singing "La Vie En rose" to Johnny Cash!! I love the retro selection on the jukebox. Also, has anyone noticed that they use hard-plastic Chinese-restaurant plates for the food???? Once again: surreal, creative, authentic, eclectic and utterly awesome. I never like honey wine until I tasted the kind they have here. For me, five stars doesn't mean corporate-sterile-Ritz-Carleton (although that can be great)... it means authentic - with heart and integrity. Cafe Waziema definitely makes the grade. And one more thing: one of the reviews implied that the Ethiopian lady wasn't really Ethiopian. Well what more do you want?? She's black, with fine Ethiopian features, and has a heavy accent. And yes there is a hispanic lady in the kitchen, but she's nice too, and cooks great food! Since when do you have to be a certain ethnicity to cook good ethnic food??!
