A neighborhood supper club serving modern American fare and intriguing cocktails, The Dorian is an ode to a bygone era, a modern-day parlor for bohemians, libertines and freethinkers – a place where Oscar Wilde might have dropped in for a drink or Jerry Thomas would have tended bar. The restaurant’s robust beverage program features a mix of classic, contemporary and original offerings including hand-crafted martinis and an extensive array of whiskeys. Among the fifty or so wines by the bottle are both domestic and imported vintages. Locally sourced craft beers are also poured.

The Dorian evokes a Victorian home at the turn of the last century with rich colors and textural wallpapers, mixed with brass and concrete surfaces. Built in-panels with hand-sourced antique artifacts and art, and a chandelier all bring a sense of charm and fun to the restaurants three distinct spaces. The main bar area, with brass accents and a teal and purple color scheme, is anchored by a prominent whiskey display while upstairs, the study incorporates leather and dark wood.

The Dorian is located at 2001 Chestnut Street, at the corner of Fillmore Street, in San Francisco, California. The restaurant serves dinner Tuesday through Sunday and brunch on Saturday and Sunday. Specific hours of operation, special features and news are available on the restaurant’s web site, www.doriansf.com, and by following @thedoriansf on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. Reservations are accepted online via the web site, through OpenTable.com, and by calling (415) 814-2671.
