The Rabbit Hole

When the clock strikes five and you’re itching to run away from the daily monotony of life for a few hours, go to The Rabbit Hole in Mission-Bernal. The cocktails (like the Hing Ling with duck fat-washed brandy, Chinese five spice, and shaoxing wine) tend to play with umami ingredients that you won’t find on most other drink menus. And the food menu takes typical bar foods—plus Asian dishes like baos and sesame peanut noodles—and kicks them up a notch, whether it’s with the mountain of pickles on the smashburger or the nam pla honey glaze on the spicy chicken sandwich.
