United Polaris Lounge
Good choice
In theory, this is one of the best lounges at SFO-- although we downgraded our review to Two Planes after persistent overcrowding.
Manage your expectations: this is likely the busiest in the entire Polaris network. Get in the virtual waitlist early for the sit-down restaurant experience. The areas nearby the food and restaurant tend to be crowded.
