"Michael and Lindsay Tusk, the couple behind the Quince mini empire that includes Cotogna, Verjus, and event space Officina, have finally unveiled their plans for the space at 596 Pacific Avenue that they acquired nearly three years ago, with plans to open an espresso bar and gelato spot. The corner space, formerly home to The Station SF, will become Bar Coto, as the Chronicle reported Friday, an all-day Italian cafe and aperitivo bar where, yes, there will be gelato, but there will also be pastries, sandwiches, and seasonal antipasti platters."
"Tablehopper brings word of a new cocktail bar project from acclaimed former Aphotic bar guy Trevin Hutchins, called Jupiter Room, which is set to open next summer in Polk Gulch (2065 Polk Street). It's the first announced project of the newly formed Jackson Square Hospitality, co-founded by former Aphotic chef Peter Hemsley, and it will feature a menu of classic cocktails including eight variations on the Martini as well as hearty bar bites taking inspiration from both diners and steakhouses. The plan is also to be open seven nights a week, providing a new late-night option for restaurant industry folk after the pandemic killed off a number of those."
Michael and Lindsay Tusk will open Bar Coto at 596 Pacific Avenue as an all-day Italian café and aperitivo bar featuring espresso, gelato, pastries, sandwiches, and seasonal antipasti platters. Bar Coto can function as a waiting spot or consolation stop for guests unable to secure seats at Cotogna or Verjus, with an opening possibly next year. Trevin Hutchins will open Jupiter Room at 2065 Polk Street offering classic cocktails, including eight Martini variations, and diner- and steakhouse-inspired bar bites with seven-night service aimed at late-night patrons. Friends and Family in Oakland will close December 30 after summer financial challenges. Nite Yun published a cookbook.
