We love having this in our neighborhood... carefully curated limited selection of natural wines with passionate experts behind the counter. Go in with a meal plan, trust that you'll come out with perfect pairings.

Solid local spirit shop. Reasonably good variety of products and very helpful and friendly staff. Definitely don’t shop here if you’re looking for a deal, though. A nice bottle of Bourbon I bought was ~30% more than the prevailing price on Google, and the nice bottle of Japanese Whiskey was ~35% more than the prevailing price on Google. The four pack of tonic water was 2x the price at Safeway. It’s hard to be a small business owner in this city, no doubt, but those are pretty steep price gaps.

I stopped by Gemini because it's a specialty liquor store, and spent over $50 on "non-alcoholic" beverages for my friend who doesn't drink. I had an extended conversation with the clerk about what to pick for my friend, explaining the whole situation.I gave them to my friend, only to find out all of my purchases actually contain alcohol and he couldn't drink any of them. I was pretty upsetWhen I complained to Gemini, they gave me a full refund, and I was happy again. They reached out to me to make sure that I was satisfied, which I appreciated.

My husband and I stopped in to look for a couple bottles of wine for a last minute get together with family but didn't get any type of service or attention while there. There were two white men working at the counter when we came in and they never even looked up to greet us or ever even asked if we were looking for anything in particular. After being there for a bit we decided we didn't want to shop there and headed out the door. As we were heading out another white customer walked in and was quickly greeted and asked what he was in for. Will definitely not be back. We ended up walking down the street to the liquor store and gave them the business instead.

Full stock of spirits and wines. Just a really "chill" place. Owner saw me looking confused right away and came to my assistance! I was in and out in ten minutes with some unique sparkling wine for family. I'm going back. That's for sure

Love this spot. They have an extraordinary choice of wine, including a huge load of shining wine, and the proprietor is receptive and entertaining. I most certainly suggest you look at them!

Hits all the right marks for me: organized by price, small yet interesting/ever changing selection and a cooler if you want to drink it sooner than later. I especially enjoy that they carry Empirical Spirits -- both the canned, pre-mixed cocktails and the liquors themselves. A neighborhood gem!

A very fancy liquor store / bottle shop where you can find liquor beer & wine that you can't find any place else in a beautiful part of the Mission. The store offers very personalized service and will make suggestions as they know their products well.
