Veryyyy good meal! I got the Bahn Mi burger and it was so stacked wih hunks of meat i could barely get my mouh around it! 20$ may seem like a lot for a burger but they ALL come with a healthy order of perfectly crispy frys (or salad) so that makes em in the norm for this area. My only gripe was since it is ALL outdoor seating (and no restroom) i had a yellow jacket that would fight me for my food...but i still won ;)

We spent $80 on lunch and they wouldn’t even let my daughter use their bathroom.

Forgivable if lunch was good but it was pretty bad :/ burgers and shrimp both super over cooked.

Best fried chicken sandwich I've had (and I've had a few) and consistently good! Great spot to relax too

Nice little restaurant in the cut , big food coming across the window! Take your time to find this little gem just off San Pablo in Berkeley. I had a tri-tip sandwich, it was so big I literally needed a cherry picker to get it out of the box. Tri-tip with thinly sliced seasoned with salt and perfect smoke , super tender and bathed in coleslaw . French fries were so amazing everybody at the table just helped themselves. You definitely want to get another order of those if you're with friends. It's rare that you find a homemade fry that's actually good these people do it extremely well. My friend is a fan of waffles and pancakes and was thrilled to see a waffle on the menu that was also fabulous. Mac and cheese was tasty and came in as one of the cheapest items on the menu but didn't lack flavor or size. Can't wait to come back.

Went here for a staff event. Amazing chicken and waffles, and the mac and cheese was really solid. Nice seating area and staff, many of us plan to come back. Only downside is no public bathroom, but they're pretty close to Berkeley Bowl so be aware of that during your visit. I'd definitely recommend the chicken and the mac!

Burger was a little dry and more on the well done side than medium. Definitely not a quick lunch spot so be careful on work lunch breaks.

my son had the habanero fat boy with a salad and he said it was one of the best spicy experiences of his life. it's definitely for those who love spicy food already and not for those who are deciding to try something new. but for people who love spicy food this is a must try! (his secret was to eat the yummy salad after the spicy sandwich - guess to cool down the pallet).
