Agostino Giuntoli left Tuscany, Italy in 1922 at the age of 19 and sailed to America. He spent five years working his way to San Francisco and found a job as janitor at the famed Palace Hotel. From there he became a cook at a nearby establishment where his boss, Monk Young, was unable to pronounce his name and dubbed him "Bimbo", the Italian word for boy. The name stuck for good.

Bimbo's is now busier than ever with private parties, special events, and concerts. Some of our corporate clients include Cellular One, Oracle, National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, and Yahoo!. This glamorous nightclub presents the latest popular acts such as Chris Isaak, The Raconteurs, Adele, Robin Williams, and Jill Scott.

Some people come to relive the good old days of San Francisco nights, others have their good old days for the first time. What they have in common is a landmark that's destined to stand as long as San Francisco stands for good times.
