I come here for the swing dancing and random bands but this weekend will be the last time I go. The website says no cover on the website, yet I was forced to pay for my guest because he was male. It was embarrassing and honestly, the dance floor did not warrant that fee. We had bought CDs from the jazz bands before and supported the crew but the “no cover” on the site should have been honored by the doors people who told me to blame the “owner.” Well alright then, say good bye to your weekday crowd :)
I love coming here for live jazz music on Thursday nights! Its a great place to bring your dance friends and if theyre not into dancing theres plenty of space to hang out and enjoy Gauchos music. The drinks are really good and the bar staff is always a delight to chat with.
Bartenders are very nice people and make greate cocktails. The decoration is cozy and modern with plush chairs. Sound system needs work however. If you come here with a group of friends youd have fun. I came on Friday randomly because my friend was a DJ. It doesnt seam tbus place attracts any locals. I talked to almost everyone and people where from all over the place.
Just stopped off for a drink while waiting for some Chinese food. Really nice ladys learning how to dance. great atmosphere Great bartender, but I only spent twenty minutes there.
I could hang in this bar for hours. Atmosphere is super chill. They play Frank Sinatra kinda music.I had few cocktails of the menu and I have tell you they all were delicious!!!My favorite was whiskey based cocktail that they age in oak barrels. I think name was “Better with Age”.Service was great. I would definitely recommend this place and I’ll be back for sure!Cheers
DecoDance is the new bar in Polk (between Sutter & Post). It has an Art Deco theme interior (hence the name) and the design is classy & elegant with a slight touch of modern. They have excellent selection of cocktails, wine & beer and some nice music to go with the ambience. On top of all that is great, quick & friendly service from all the staff AND owners! 😀You can follow them on fb & Instagram for updates & events.
Love the atmosphere and the drinks!the venue is sooo beautiful! I didnt try the food
This is a great little hidden gem. I was visiting San Francisco, when I wandered into this place. At first glance, it may not seem like much, but boy was I wrong!The bartenders here, especially Evan, Judith and Marina are very friendly and make excellent drinks! A special shout-out to Marina, who made me one of the best Old Fashioned’s I’ve ever had.Most nights they have some event going on, so stay for that too! I am definitely coming back when I’m in town.
Great, unique cocktails! Perfect ambience on Wednesdays for their swing dance night. Come at 7 on Wednesdays if youd like a fun free swing dance lesson!
We were making a birthday party open to the public in DecoDance in February 2023. Everything went super smooth, the owners are super helpful with everything, the cocktails are delicious and the sound system is more than adequate for the place. I also like this venue during the week when it is a lot more quiet. Highly recommended for event organizers and party goers. The atmosphere is unbeatable and very classy.
I went to the Machine Girl/Garden DJ set and the sound system is underwhelming. It is a nice cocktail bar, but a terrible venue for music. The atmosphere was warm and intimate, but in addition to poor sound quality, I couldnt help but notice everyone squinting at their bills as they see a $13 basic mixed drink turn into $17 between taxes and a service fee. If you want to charge a service fee for people to drink at a bar, just make that the price of the drink. Although I am interested in their specialty cocktails, I probably wont be back outside of a special event.
Unexpectedly very rude - could have been a bad day but the service was atrocious. Again understand that people have bad days but still…anyway moved up the road
Like the name says - it’s a fun dance bar! Bring your friends for a uniquely decorated interior and solid drinks. Check their Instagram if you’re wondering what theme or vibe is going on for any particular night. Lots of space for dancing with some seating available as well.
It was our last night in town and we were looking for a bar with food, very hard to find in this city. We were actually headed to Upcider when we came across Decodance, which is on the street level, below Upcider. Evan was incredibly friendly and welcoming. He let us know we could get food from upstairs so we parked ourselves at the bar at had one of the best evenings. We enjoyed chatting with Evan about baseball and 90s video games. He was so charming! The bar itself is a gorgeous art deco motif that is beautiful. Go here and tell Evan that Ian and Jaz say hi!
In addition to the positive reviews about the ambiance, the real gems here are the bartenders who make Decodance shine — Judith and Angela are expert bartenders.They make me feel wholesome and welcomed like family, making me want to return. The cocktails are made by people who are detail-oriented, and can freestyle if you have something in mind. They even put up with me opening and closing my tab multiple times :)
Definitely a nice spot to go dance and drink with your friends, they have various DJs across the week. Giving only 4 stars because there is not a lot of space, its not a club so there is no coat check, and the cocktails are standard. Its a good vibe though, I like to end the night here after few drinks at some other bars on Polk St.
Simply love this place!What a great job the did with renovation. I am big fan of Art Deco stile and it’s my go to place now.Service was on point and cocktails well put together and delicious.I would recommend reserving a table as they are getting busy especially when live music bands playing.
Nice atmosphere and decor. I was here for salsa night on Wednesday. Friendly atmosphere, lively music, spacious. I also like the food on non-event nights. Atmosphere is described to me as classical, traditional, with a bold appeal.
Neat little bar that gives mellow, Great Gatsby speakeasy vibes. Truly a hidden gem; fantastic cocktails and friendly bar staff. Latin Sundays are also a huge plus point. Go here for a great time!
Some of my best memories are at Decodance! First of all, the place itself is beautiful, very elegant, great for pictures! The cocktails are yummy (my favorite is their lychee martini) but the parties... Well you just can’t miss it 🔥!
My friend and I flew from Vancouver and spent over 170 at this place in one hour. I was sitting 80% of the time we were there and he was having fun singing along. I was flabbergasted when security kicked us out for no reason. The manager told us it was securitys decision and security told us it was the managers decision. They didnt let us back in and when we asked why they kicked us out no one gave a us a coherent reason. They just told us there was a complaint of my friend pushing someone which is untrue cause I witnessed how he was just having fun and not messing with anyone. On top of that we paid with a 100 dollar bill at the entrance and gave $10 tip. They should have given us $50 change and we later realized they only gave us $5. This place is truly reprehensible and full of sketchy, brainless posers. Avoid at all costs.
We loved DeccoDance! Very fun dance music and DJ, great drinks, and not too crowded. While we were there, we met the owner and thought she was great. Well decorated with Euro / Great Gatsby vibes and no cover charge. May be my favorite dance spot in San Francisco!
Came for the wed night swing lesson but will be back other days for the atmosphere and drinks. Pro tip they also have food from next door!
A nice bar with an old-fashioned atmosphere blended with modern looks. Cocktails are unique. A nice place to either chill or have fun.
AVOID THIS PLACE. Bad drinks and service. Also, the female manager who works here is rude and unethical. She forcefully took away our table and spilled my girlfriend’s drink and offered no apology or replacement. On top of that after sitting at our table for 2 hours she came and kicked us out so her late arriving friends could have our table. Don’t come here if you have any self respect.
Went with a small group of friends, ridiculously packed, the bathroom situation is even worse. The bartenders service was great and the music was good but they should work on capacity.
Such a cozy place! The interior and the atmosphere are so unique for SF which definitely makes this place special.The cocktails are a piece of art and taste so good.
Enjoyable precise 🍸.! ..I had a French 75... And my guy a Nolets gin.... the Ponytailed bartender was very friendly and attentive to our table. DecoDance was on my list of venues to experience so we popped in for a pre birthday 🎉 drink and dance... But unfortunately although really cool ambient music 🎵 playing.....no dancing tonight. (Tue)Beautiful decor and vibe that supports your choice of your fanciest outfits to casual attire.. ..well definitely be back to dance and enjoy the live music cause Im celebrating 🎉 allllll month! 🎶! 💜🍉karin and Anthony 🍉💜
There are some wild cocktails on the menu
Great Place!!! I was shocked by great, unique decor of this new bar. Cocktails are amazing. Service fast and friendly. Definitely coming back when I’m in SF next time.
Free drop-in swing dance lesson every Wednesday, followed by social dancing! Very friendly and welcoming people. Great cocktails!
The margarita I ordered did not have salt on the rim...The floor was super sticky. I was told rudley to leave and it was not even 2 am yet 😕.
This place is such a good vibe. Very old world, charming, and welcoming. And the owner Angela is so friendly and hospitable. Incredible cocktails, too! 10/10 would recommend!
Great atmosphere but the first time I went they looped a single song the entire time I was there (I think it was called on the sunny side of the street). I wanted to blow my eardrums out after the 10th time but other than that great spot.
Ok bar, service was so-so. Drinks were tasty. I’m not sure if I’ll return.
Post says $5 after 10pm and security wants $10. And you won’t take card ? Wasted my time , check your security. I took out $100 for the night but after waiting 20 mins and no one wanted to take my order I just left. Save yourself time and don’t come here. People was just chilling on they phones :/ that’s the vibe from this establishment
Fun place! Nice, cozy environment! Love to culture, loved the staff, loved the atmosphere, and of course loved the drinks. Carefully made!
This place is awesome! Beautiful decor, nice and friendly staff, delicious cocktails! And plenty of TV screens. Nicely remodeled place in a classic location. Highly recommend!
Amazing service, and a really cool atmosphere. We were really looked after by the staff; they are so kind. Espresso martinis are a must!
This bar is really decadent. A beautiful bar in the Polk district. Great ambience really delicious drinks. Youll want to come here dressed up but you dont have to
Was surprised at how packed this place was on a Sunday. It was Latin night and the music was incredible. We had a great time. Will definitely go back.
We went for Halloween & New Year’s eve! Great space and music!
My new favorite cocktail bar in the city with the cutest vibe. $12 for delicious cocktails and wonderful service? SF needs more of this!
When this place was Vertigo it was packed simply because it was a spot for people to dance. Loved the renovations, but lets get some music people can dance to!
Beautiful ambiance, classy, and great staff! This is a wonderful addition to Polk St. I could spend all night with friends at this bar!
Love this new spot on Polk St. Bar done in Art Deco stole. Drinks are delicious and bartenders friendly and knowledgeable. Will be back for sure!
Amazing atmosphere and very nice staff. I recommend everyone to visit and try cocktails with good music.
Cool place. Great live music. Very beautiful decor. Overall a great ambiance
GREAT place to grab mixed drink, dance to a live jazz type band (Thursdays) or Latin dance (Sunday) or a DJ other nights. A classy place !
Amazing, creative cocktails, great service, and a beautiful space.
Amazing place where you will have an amazing and a rare drink , listen good music and just have a good vibe and a lot of fun. I recommend!

Very well designed and decorated cocktail bar. The drinks were excellent!
This place is so unique. I am in love with their decor, drinks and bartenders. Highly recommend to visit this bar 🤩
Horrible service. I was there for 30 minutes at the bar with no service. People came in from outside and the bartender would instantly take their order. I decided to just leave after 30 minutes of nothing
One of the best bars! My favorite place.
Nice interior given the location. The dance floor is intimate. Yummy drinks.
Went to Sunday night SalsaMissed the class but it looked fun
A stunning interior and sexy vibe. Perfect place for sweet nothings with a date, or a bohemian cocktail night out with friends.
One of the best bars in SF! Thank you for supporting Ukraine!
Great drinks & great service. Atmosphere is fitting for the decade as a Neo-Roaring 20’s
Really nice bar for cocktails and drinks. Weekly dj and Ukraine women owned

Awsome place
Great Dance Bar
A different concept every evening, especially on Friday and Saturday evenings, where talented people from San Francisco gather. There are people dancing and the bartenders are really nice. The cocktails are delicious, made just the way you want them, but also very relaxing. The espresso martini with marshmallow was really delicious! Next time I go to San Francisco, I want to go again.
We loved this place! We ordered two delicious cocktails that were made on the spot and we drank them at the bar, then we went in and there was live music and we were able to sit and listen and watch as there were customers dancing. The truth is that it is a place with a lot of life and it was packed. 100% recommendable!!!
We were only there for 2 ciders. The music was good. Luckily there were no TVs!! Unfortunately it was quite empty, maybe we were there at the wrong time?! Go there, people!!
This is a simply beautiful dance, life music and cocktail bar, furnished in the Art Deco style of the 1920s and very lovingly designed, with friendly staff. Probably one of the most beautiful, tasteful bars ever, where you can also eat delicious food from a good restaurant next door. Nevertheless, they have reasonable prices that you wouldnt expect in a restaurant of this caliber. Cocktails currently cost around $17. Really a great bar of a quality and level that you unfortunately rarely find these days.
A very good bar. But as my English is very bad, the bartender was upset because she didnt say the order correctly. Be careful!!!
Good DJ FranchescoFrom: Italy
Nice decent
