The Ambassador - Downtown: $25 for $50 Worth of Lounge Fare, Cocktails, and Other Drinks at The Ambassador

Winston Churchill was famous for the high standards he applied to alcohol, quipping that "Liquor is quicker, but get me a single malt scotch with moon rocks in it! I'm the English president!" Be like Ol' Winnie with today's Groupon: for $25, you get $50 worth of lounge fare, cocktails, and other drinks at The Ambassador, located in the Tenderloin. This Groupon is only valid before 10 p.m.

A product of the Vintage 415 cultural market company, The Ambassador exhibits a debonair vibe with its 31 chandeliers, plush red carpet, and two large TV screens that have been known to mysteriously splice single frames of Connery-era Bond films into whatever is on at the time. Contemplate how to foil a brilliantly evil archenemy while sipping one of the Ambassador's specialty cocktails ($9), such as the Ace Of Spades, which mixes Hendrick's Gin, cucumber, lime, and soda.

Planners-ahead should make a table reservation to nab one of the leather-black booths—each is equipped with an old-school rotary phone that acts as a direct link to the bartender for ordering another round of drinks, such as Anchor Steam on draft ($5). Balance out the eat-to-drink ratio by grabbing a sophisticated bite from the food menu, filled with satiating sustenance such as basil-pesto bruschetta ($6) and Italian sausage sliders ($9).

A popular post-work hangout for office workers and human cannonballs, The Ambassador is typically hopping until 2 a.m., with DJs throughout the week and bars on two levels. Drop the kids off and simmer down with a stiff, tongue-approved drink in the Old Vegas vibe of The Ambassador.

More than 500 Yelpers give The Ambassador a 3.5-star average, and it has been featured in the New York Times:

  • The dapper smirk of 007 confirms the debonair, men’s club vibe. – Jessica Grose, the New York Times
  • The martinis were perfect, the decor was romantic and grand, the bartenders were friendly, and the tater tots were deliciously crispy, and now it's simply a matter of when to go back. – Sage R., Yelp
