Description

Perspective
The casual[1] restaurant PLS on Post operates on the ground floor of the Hotel Zeppelin on Post Street, near Union Square. It serves "retro-inspired"[2] American cuisine such as hamburgers and milkshakes, as well as cocktails. The abbreviation in the business name refers to "peace, love, and soul" to commemorate the counterculture of the 1960s in San Francisco.[3] The San Francisco Standard and Sunset magazine have said the restaurant has a 1960s and "laid back" vibe, respectively.[4][1] In 2024, The San Francisco Standard said of the clientele: "Less than a third of those dining at the 1960s-themed restaurant were tourists, with the remainder a mix of locals and people coming into the city for the day."[5]
Menu
PLS has multiple varieties of "gourmet"[6] hamburgers, including a classic smash burger with American cheese and onions, another version with blue cheese and Mission fig mayonnaise, and a "Korean-inspired" version with cheddar cheese and a gochujang barbecue glaze. Side options include chips and guacamole, French fries, and pickled vegetables. Milkshake options include chocolate, "Funfetti" with cake batter and whipped cream, strawberry, vanilla, and the Choco-Nut, which has hot fudge, peanut butter, and Reese's Pieces in glass with a chocolate rim. The drink menu includes beer, wine, and cocktails made with gin, mezcal, rum, and tequila.[3] Among classic rock-themed cocktails are the Bad Medicine, the Black Velvet, and the Riders on the Storm. The Ginny Hendrix has gin and grape soda.[4]
For the holiday season, the restaurant has served a Peppermint Bark Shake with chocolate and vanilla ice cream, candy cane, two varieties of peppermint bark made by Ghirardelli Chocolate Company, peppermint essence, sprinkles, whipped cream, chocolate syrup, chocolate frosting on the rim, and a cherry on top.[7]
