“This spot had a charming ambiance, with adorable lamps and chairs that immediately caught my eye. I ordered the spaghetti and meatballs, which I’d rate a solid 8.6/10. The portion was generous, and they didn’t skimp on the meatballs. It also came with garlic bread, which was a standout—the roasted garlic spread on the bread was incredible.

My boyfriend tried the gnocchi primavera, but unfortunately, it was a disappointment at 4.8/10. The gnocchi was overly soft, and the dish was overloaded with olives that had an off-putting metallic taste, which overshadowed the other flavors.

The service was straightforward—nothing notable, just taking orders and delivering food. One downside was the extra $1 charge per item for card payments, which felt unnecessary.

Overall, it’s a nice spot with good food, especially the spaghetti and garlic bread. I’d recommend it if you’re in the area and feeling hungry, but perhaps skip the gnocchi.“

“Beautiful spot on the water for quality seafood. Definitely a “special occasion” choice for us, but there were more modest menu items that could possibly make for a more casual meal. Incredible service! The ambiance and the staff took our experience to the next level. Thanks!“

“Does someone who has been in Berkeley for a long time this is one of like the places I feel is a spot that if you've been in the area this will be a place you're probably going to visit. But ultimately this is a spot where me and my family for like to come for some smoothies or small snack. My mom would rather go here then to a place like Jamba Juice because of just how good it is also the location is great it feels Homey the people are very personable. Especially if they remember you because if they remember you they'll know exactly what you want every time when they see you.

And ultimately the reason why I'm finally leaving a review is quite simply we came to their place right when they were about to start closing just wanting some smoothies and they were able to make us some and they got my mom's order just a little wrong because she didn't want something in her smoothie they went out of their way at their closing time to not only make her one smoothie because she said she wouldn't even be able to completely finish the customary one they're working but another just because she talked about possibly splitting it with my little sister. The people that work there deserve this good review and I hope that they keep thriving.

This picture is just one of the smoothies I got“

“Been coming here around once a month for about two years. Usually breakfast.

My two favorites are the egg wrap (essentially a breakfast burrito) and the mushroom and goat cheese omelette. The wrap comes with aioli, chutney, and pico de gallo on the side and really up levels the taste. The tortilla is fresh with that perfect chewiness.

Have and will continue to return!“

“Tender Greens | Berkeley has become a go-to place for occasional food delivery & dining in house in the mid-afternoon. The food is tasty, fresh, & plentiful—consistent—& always tastes good. Chefs develop interesting & tasty seasonal menus. I have explored a number of plates & bowls, especially savor the greens & seasonings that go alongside the entrees. Have enjoyed chicken, salmon, beef, & vegetarian options as well as all the sides. Sandwiches & salads are delish. As is the mint lemonade & watermelon fresca. The place can be hopping or not, & the service is top notch & personable, professional. They do robust to-go orders & have spacious outdoor garden seating. Sure wish I’d discovered it sooner!“

“I inquired about the furniture change and learned all the older chairs were headed to the landfill. Please don’t do this! I’m a regular and I’ve seen they are scuffed but still serviceable- donate them to Urban Ore or a second hand place. It’s Berkeley- there are a lot of options and that is our values. Don’t create waste if you don’t have to! Disappointed in a place that I’ve visited a bunch. Great service and beautiful views, but come on, it’s not that hard not to be wasteful.“
