Fun for Asian bois and girls and ummmm transAsain people? Ok! I only know I had a blast with Tita Aida the resident den mother of N'Touch and Hostess of Club T on Thursday night. I only go late night because... well TRUST ME! Some things are better in the dark. The drinks are strong and bartenders are hot! I even like the lychee TitaTini! Most nights the dance floor is packed and hard to move about but that's the way I like it. If you like to feel your way around you'll be more than happy! Sweat, skin and booze! GAYsian heaven!

N Touch is officially the closest gay bar to my apartment, and so is solidly in my top five favorite gay haunts in all of San Francisco. I frequent the weekday happy hour which usually consists of cheap drinks and the local muppets who we have come to know and love.
As a kid I always wanted to go "where everybody knows your name", now I have exactly that minus Ted Danson and a catchy theme-tune... however the bar snacks keep me lookin' like Kirstie Alley (they flow!)
When to go to catch a crowd: Saturday nights, guaranteed busy after 11pm and usually a decent scene of cute local gay boys both Asian and non-Asian alike. Cheers!

I've only been on Saturday nights, and it's a blast. I go with a good attitude, a big smile, and always have a great time. The music is good. DJ Sean now spins every Saturday -- love him, he keeps the energy and up butts on the dance floor.
The crowd is consistently friendly and good looking.
The venue is too small, poorly ventilated and badly decorated... but it's still got a great vibe and happy feel.

The website is correct - karaoke on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. BUT, the place is dead, no energy, bad layout and the song selection hasn't been updated since 2001.
Happy hour is decent and last call for happy hour is at 8:30 which I liked. Mixed drinks were ok but the nuts and Goldfish served were a nice touch.
Service is spotty at best and you can tell that the bartenders weren't hired for their bartending ability. They are friendly though and will sit and chat with you which is really why I'm giving this place 2 stars.
This place really boasts itself more as a dance club for the weekends, but being a karaoke junkie and it's 3 blocks from my apartment, I had to check it out. I doubt I'll go back, unless I need a good laugh for something.

Ahh the N Touch Bar.....I haven't been here since 2003. N Touch is the original "Little China" in San Francisco with Club Dragon taking over as the new hip place for the Asian community. As far as N Touch goes, however.....I have never liked this place, and for good reason. Too bad I will be there again soon, made a 1 time promise to a friend....I keep my promises.
I'm not a fan of any bar that charges a cover for you to enter when it is a fire hazard. The small space within it's walls is enough to make me suffocate, try dancing in here on a weekend cause it is next to impossible ...I thought this was to be remedied eons ago with an expansion but I guess that never took place. The crowd is primarily sticky...that isn't a bad thing but it would be nice to get some attention...my fault for going.
I will give this club one thing. It is pretty easy for me to walk to the Cinch from here. Despite it's shortcomings, The N Touch has some decent bartenders...that was the only thing keeping me sane while I was there. Hopefully this next trip there will make amends for my 4 year hiatus. Till then....1 star.

I have to admit, I enjoy coming to this bar on Tuesdays for Karoake. Have not been there in about a month and a half however it is still fun. One of my favorite bartenders recently left N Touch. From what I have heard the owner has a less than desireable personality. Have only attended N Touch once during the weekend and went home with a cute asian chef. I should probably go back, hmm.

This was my first gay club experience. I guess it was more happening back then, before D**GON opened. It's still a fun place to go to. The go-go boys are all cute (jealous!), and the owner's a pretty cool guy. I've been to the tranny night on Thursdays, and it's actually pretty fun! Totally worth bringing your friends from out of town.
The karaoke nights on Mondays and Tuesdays are pretty fun too. I've been there and sang Enrique Iglesias' 'Escape' and to my surprise, it was a club remix. How gay! It's very fun. Totaly worth a visit.

OK guys, the club has been remodeled and looks much nicer now. Business seems to be on the rebound. Also, it is not dark in there as some have claimed and apparently brighter than a well know venue on Folsom Street according to one friend. Also, that OTHER place is too damn crowded and it is not in my neighborhood and not having a car it is not the easiest place to come home from. With N' Touch I can walk there. Check it out.

Tis a bit sweaty, stanky and sticky here but the boys are well, they're asian, and we like that, we really do. They have been expanding for ever and one day the other side will finally open and maybe it won't feel like everyone here is tucked inside a sushi roll.
The music is usually good and cheesy dance music and there are tons of hot boys dancing. There is usually, a proclivity of drama here, on any occasion I have gone usually someone is causing a scene about touching someone else's boyfriend. girls, really!
That aside there are tons of mirrors which are supposed to reflect the hot men and lights but usually just catch the sweat of the dancing queen scene. G-R-O-S-S! they lose a point for that, almost two but I add one back for Tita Aida, the hardest working, hardly ever funny, drag queen in the city.

So Bambi was heading to the movies this afternoon to the Lumiere but was a bit early and said .. screw the 5 o'clock rule am getting cocktails. So I walked in here and it was Golden City and I don't mean "Gillded Gilda" I mean Senior social. So here I am trying to squeeze between two Gents to order a drink and the bartender who by the way looked maybe 19 serving drinks to the 65 and over crowd said "May I See your ID?". ID? ...yes ID and gives me this look like"... Look bitch we don't serve anyone under 40 before 9pm and you are out of line to walk in hear and disturb my aura by distracting my good tipping customers". So I bust out my ID and add a comment " You know I could be your daddy and I mean Father not Sugar daddy ... now pour me a Teddy". He smiles and switches gear to the other end of the bar while I smile back and give a wink ( little ms cute thing). With that said I grab a seat and start enjoying my cocktail and appreciating the clientele ...for a moment I went back in time imagining what these lads were doing when they were my age which by the way is currently 22. I bet they were in The Army or The Navy... yes yes The Navy ..."Sailors" Wow that's hot... oh yes and they served in WWII and Vietnam ( WAR is a horrible thing by the way...). And here they are probably talking about the good old days.
OK I will stop... My good old days will never stop. I don't care If I live to be 22 or 222 (that is a Long way) as long as I guard my freedom... FLY BAMBI FLY AWAY... off to the Lumiere followed by the SISSY CLUB ( Reveiw coming up soon...)

Flower Drum Song meets M Butterfly, with Suzy Wong presiding over the festivities. Probably one of the least eclectic crowds to be found in any club in the city.
