The 515 is the nicest cocktail bar in Santa Cruz, with an excellent selection of house drinks, and an extensive whisk(e)y list. Service is friendly, helpful, and efficient, and the upstairs is particularly cozy. Only downsides? It can be a bit cramped and loud, especially at peak times, and good luck getting into the bathrooms if so! I'd highly recommend going on a slow night when you can have a nice spot upstairs for a couple drinks and a quiet conversation with a friend.

Went for dinner Nov 2017. Nice ambiance. Server was friendly, but sorta clueless. He seemed vaguely confused the entire time, and we had to specifically ask about pretty much everything. My cocktail was decent (just a whiskey sour w/ a merlot floater, for some reason). Nothing special. A starter of truffle fries was quite good. Octopus appetizer was pretty tasty, but over-cooked (rubbery), and definitely a bit too fishy-tasting. For entrees, I got the burger, which was small, dry, and bland. And of course, I had to ask for any condiments. The side-salad was great, though. My friend ordered the oxtail stew, which was pretty lame -- again, sorta bland, and no differentiation between flavors. I'd go back, but only for drinks and snacks/appetizers. The dinner entrees and the service were just real disappointing.

Cocktail menu is awesome! Extremely creative and tasty drinks. Also the decor and general vibe of the place feel like you are chilling in your coolest friend's living room.

Kinda cool but they need to figure out that you don't seat a party and Immediately tell them when to get out..you know they have a reservation three hours from now....

Let me start by saying the food and drinks were delicious... once we got them. We came in with a party of 5, and the restaurant was relatively empty when we arrived. We ordered drinks first and then about five minutes later our food: two risottos, a burger, a flatbread, truffle fries and a soup. Almost 20 minutes later the two risottos came out, followed by the soup and fries about five minutes later. FIFTEEN MINUTES after these meals had been brought out the flatbread and burger finally came! There was never any explanation as to why our food was taking so long because the waitress never even bothered coming by our table to check up on us! I couldn't believe how awful the service was, especially for such a nice restaurant. I definitely will not be coming back here again.
