Inspired by film noir, Burritt Room + Tavern is a hotel restaurant and bar unlike many others. For starters, it’s got style. A sultry space with a retro feel, Burritt Room is tucked away in San Francisco’s Union Square at the Mystic Hotel. The venue boasts fine-dine-level food, a sexy atmosphere, and a damn good craft cocktail — or 17, if you want to get technical with the menu.

In this episode of “Across the Bar,” brought to you by the Foodable WebTV Network, mixologist Josh Trabulsi shows us where the magic happens, starring three beautiful cocktail concoctions. Join Host Paul Barron as Trabulsi divulges what provoked him to become a craft bartender, how San Francisco bar culture differs from other markets, and what he looks for in a spirit while creating new drinks.
