I was invited by my friends for a get together for Christmas. We decided to come to Asena. It was my first time. I love the ambiance, the service. You will see the owner mingling with diners. I even had a picture with him. So love this place. Come and checktl this place out.

I just had the most wonderful celebration with friends at Asena. The food was spectacular (persimmon salad and salmon ravioli), the service was stellar and the atmosphere was relaxing and lovely.

Exceptional all around. A more elegant menu than most restaurants in the area. The people seem to enjoy working there, so the service is friendly and accommodating in an unobtrusive way. The food quality and menu selection is excellent. If the weather is decent, try the patio! We did and it lent a casual elegance to the evening.

Wonderful experience! The owner talked with me about the menu, suggested dishes, and checked in during each course. Most importantly, this might be the best tasting food I’ve ever had. Honestly just perfect. Friendly atmosphere in the restaurant as well.

My favorite restaurant in Alameda. The service is great, and the atmosphere is warm.

Food is top notch. My favorites were the hanger steak and fava bean crostini, but everything we had was great.

I explored many Alameda eateries and photographed a few of Asena's highlights during Restaurant Week. I loved the closeness and intimate atmosphere, and these are the coolest dishes I saw. They serve very fresh Mediterranean coastal lighter fare, and there's a great backyard. It feels friendly and familiar.
