This is an amazing dining experience... my favorite drink is Jack satan..and t I always get the chicken livers....💖😉
Comal is a great, very pleasant place. The food is good, and the service is great, but parking is hard, so keep that in mind. It is still one of my to-go places. Very consistent.
Excellent and adventurous high end Mexican cuisine, in a really nice venue. All in all, worth every cent.

Comal is a popular dining destination in Berkeley, known for its tasty dishes and inviting outdoor space. The restaurant serves a variety of Mexican specialties, including chips and guacamole, mushroom quesadillas, and a selection of tacos, such as the pibil. The outdoor patio provides a pleasant dining experience, with heating and ample seating, including a bar and large tables suitable for bigger groups.
Customers often praise the friendly and fast service, and the menu features rotating options like Fuertes Platios for 2-3 people, with favorites such as pork shoulder with grilled corn. The food is fresh and flavorful, and the chips with guacamole are made just hours before serving. The margaritas are highly regarded for their refreshing taste.
While the ambiance, drinks, and service are generally well-received, some customers have noted inconsistencies with the food quality. The tlayuda, for example, has been described as disappointing when it was served with Parmesan cheese instead of the expected preparation. Additionally, some diners have encountered issues with the tortillas, such as thick and hard blue corn tortillas in the broccoli rabe quesadilla.
Overall, Comal remains a well-loved establishment, offering a contemporary and unpretentious dining experience with a focus on delicious Mexican cuisine and a inviting outdoor space.
