Yelp.com Review - by Tracy A.

3.0 of 5 stars. We went here to support our coworkers band and their CD release party. It was one of those warm SF evenings which meant that the inside of this space was like a sauna. There are no in and out…

Yelp.com Review - by Rayna A.

3.0 of 5 stars. It's dark and grungy, but open late and never dull. I've ended up here few times for random events and always run into people I know. It's not my favorite spot, but a great place to make a last…

Yelp.com Review - by Charles F.

3.0 of 5 stars. Beware the first try - this place will smash your ideals. Better to look beyond the bare walls and small space in order to think of the potential this spot holds, especially for wannabe self trained…

Yelp.com Review - by Lizzie C.

5.0 of 5 stars. The people who run Balazo Gallery are the some of the coolest, most accommodating you could ever meet. I remember back when it was this weird two-story space near one of the Mission BART stations…

Yelp.com Review - by Bryan M.

5.0 of 5 stars. i saw limp wrist here last night. it kinda reminded me of moshy, sweaty punk shows of junior high, but it also reminded me of the great 6th street warehouse about a year ago, but without the jerks.…

Yelp.com Review - by daniel m.

4.0 of 5 stars. It's hard to review a place in which you are scared that what you write in the review (if the wrong people saw it) could get the venue/art gallery shut down. That's a lot to have on your conscious. On…

Yelp.com Review - by Norm P.

5.0 of 5 stars. My personal punk haven in SF. Many a times I have seen a couple of my favorite local bands like La Plebe and Eskapo play here. Here, art music, political activism converge. This newer location…

Yelp.com Review - by j.rachel r.

5.0 of 5 stars. warningl this is a biased review because i know the people running the show at balazo. once upon a time, balazo was only known to legitimate punk rockers and mexican bettie pages. we celebrated…

Yelp.com Review - by Xicana X.

5.0 of 5 stars. This place is certainly experiencing some growing pains, but it has a great future. The staff are all wonderful, they are very supportive of the community and music and arts scene. So many places in…

Yelp.com Review - by Larry A.

4.0 of 5 stars. I remember when this place was a Chinese restaurant. It sucked. As for the place now, it reminds me of Gilman St in Berkeley. Poorly decorated, shitty amenities, nasty bathrooms, poor…

Yelp.com Review - by Juan d.

5.0 of 5 stars. The place is small dirty, dark and poorly decorated, the sound system sucks. Don't come looking for glamour. This is the underground of the underground of the Mission scene. The have Punk Rock shows…

Yelp.com Review - by Hex I.

5.0 of 5 stars. I admit I am biased; I live right next door. I get trashed out of my mind before even getting there, so every night I go to Dub Night, on Saturdays, I just dance and let my intoxicated state whisk me…

Yelp.com Review - by Leeshawn N.

4.0 of 5 stars. awesome place! i was there a month ago and it looked like they re-vamped inside. The stage is a real stage now and the bar area in the back has some couches and such to sit down and relax. It's a lot…

Yelp.com Review - by Krismet S.

1.0 of 5 stars. Went for a private party. Looks like an abandoned chinese cafeteria because it is an abandoned chinese cafeteria minus the charm. For a gallery, seemed to be a general lack of art. Instead looked like…

Yelp.com Review - by Eric O.

4.0 of 5 stars. Probably the most underground bar in the mission. Lots of punk/experimental/indie shows. Very grungy, cheap and relaxed as hell.
