the ruby room is a crap bar these days (or was the last time I went there). it was fun the first year it opened but rapidly declined. Their table isn't great and there are always a dozen people trying to use it.
BUT, the Mallard is in fact excellent. The Uptown has an okay table in a dedicated pool room and has the extra benefit of being half a block from the studio where I record so i've actually used it. The Makeout Room's table is sloped and too close to the wall even though I love the bar.

was this the relocation? i seem to remember seeing shows in downtown oakland at a "ruby room" in the early 90s... circular bar, a few blocks from what was known then as "needle park".

there is someplace on 1st or 2nd that will give you horrible indigestion and make you hurl, if you're lucky.

El Metate in the Mission (Bryant and, what, 21st? 22nd?) is a fine newish addition to the list, though I wouldn't say "best".
But Alex OTM about the Al Pastor...
