This is a fantastic restaurant. The atmosphere is great, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious. I had the chicken, which I highly recommend as it had the perfect accompaniments.

I told them no brie on the hamburger.The Hamburger came with brie They put on a ton of Cherry Jam that was very sweet. It did not taste like a hamburger. More like candy. They are are little bit too creative for me. the burger patty itself was good. But it was 26 dollars . Pricy. Popular and crowded mid week.

The food was delish but the service was inconsistent. We were served by multiple ppl but were told Emily would be our services throughout the night we have saw her twice. The food was very well done. We got the burrata, the Caesar, the special anchovy toast, the cast iron chicken, branzino, and the fresh pasta carbonara with the shoe string potatoes and the Brussels sprouts. For dessert, we got the chocolate bar. All in all a great meal for a fair price. Would be back if in the area as it’s one of the nicer restaurants in Alameda

Our friends from Alameda recommended Saltbreaker. We made reservations for the next day. When we sat down, we hummed along to the 70's tunes while enjoying our red wine and cocktail. We ordered appetizers, main course, and dessert. All very enjoyable.

4 stars for the food, 3 stars for service. They acknowledged it was a birthday dinner on arrival. Food was really good, however they brought one wrong dish. Unclear who's fault it was as the waitress just took it away without explanation and brought the correct one (salmon - was bland). The wait staff were standing around and even passing through our room, but it was impossible to get their attention. We had to get up numerous times to find someone to ask for more water and utensils. Dessert finally came but again with no forks or plates, and not even a birthday candle. We waited for about 10 mins before getting up to ask for help again. Thankfully the food made up for it, but not sure if I'll be back anytime soon.

Prompt and friendly service, nice cozy atmosphere, thoughtful tight menu, and good drinks. All dishes were plated beautifully, cooked well using fresh ingredients, but unfortunately the flavor just wasn’t there. Steak was under-seasoned, pastry of the Wellington undercooked, all sauces not bright or bold, multiple components in a dish not cohesive or complimenting the main protein, etc. Modern creative takes on comfort classics seemed to justify the higher-end prices conceptually, but fell short in actual taste.
This spot is very hidden from the outside with lots of parking. I brought my girlfriend here for our date. I made reservations through there website. You can pick bar or patio seating. We sat by the bar. We were greeted by our bartender and started with our drinks. We then ordered the focaccia bread as our appetizer. For mains, we ordered the beef Wellington and fresh pasta then finished our night with a tiramisu. Everything went well, no complaints. Very modern on the inside. Food and drinks were good.

Had a great birthday meal for my mom. Excellent service and atmosphere. We loved the beef carpaccio, crudo and focaccia. The Caesar salad was also a hit. My chicken w gnocchi was flavorful and moist! Husband said his duck was a little dry and over salted. Both moms got the salmon and loved it and of course dad’s burger was perfect.
Topped it off with some delicious fun desserts and it was a great night.

Great spot for a bite and drink! Staff is very nice and welcoming and the place has a good atmosphere. A little pricey but makes sense because it feels upscale.

Had a reservation for 6:30. Didn't sit till 7:10. Since we had a party of 3, they only wanted to sit us at a certain table, because that table sat for an extended period of time we had to wait, even thought they could have moved two table together to sit us or sit us at a table of four, they decided not to and said they only wanted to sit us at the table for three. Talked to the manager and he gave us lip service but didn't do anything. Never came back to check on us. Good was OK but would never go back and will tell friends and family that it's not a great restaurant. Waitress was good
