Ashby Eatery is a small, cozy restaurant located in central Berkeley that offers a variety of fresh and tasty food options. The atmosphere is welcoming, with both outdoor and indoor seating, and the staff is attentive and friendly. Visitors appreciate the good vibes and the dog-friendly environment, where they often find water and treats for their pets. The menu features popular items such as the honey fried chicken biscuit with jalapeño slaw, which many describe as delicious and out of this world, and the fried chicken biscuit sandwich, known for its flavorful, crispy chicken. Other favorites include the Biscuit Egg sandwich, Green salad with vinaigrette, Banana Bread French Toast, and the soon-to-be-famous Breakfast Burrito, which receives high praise from those lucky enough to try it.
The restaurant uses fresh ingredients, and the food is generally considered good and wholesome. However, some reviews mention inconsistency, especially with the jalapeño cole slaw, which was disappointing on one visit due to lack of flavor and proper preparation. Service is typically fast and friendly, though there are occasional comments about inattentiveness from staff. Prices are fair, and parking is ample. The small size of the place can be deceiving, as it offers plenty of seating both inside and outside.
Overall, Ashby Eatery is highly recommended for a quick breakfast or lunch, especially for fried chicken sandwiches, and visitors look forward to returning to see if the experience improves.
