Tapas Restaurants near Emeryville, CA

“Just amazing. Pop-up street food doesn’t get better than this.“

“Strong cider, strong playlist, staffed by legends.“

“A safe place for a celiac person to enjoy the food ride of their lives!!!

This was one of the best food experiences in my life! It was not just a meal...but an EXPERIENCE! Each bite, you went on a journey of flavors and textures that kept changing in your mouth. Layers of deliciousness 😋.

They change their menu up a lot. We had the celery root ceviche that was out of this world! We were not going to order it at first but the waiter said it was the best thing on the menu...and she was RIGHT!

This was followed by the fava bean battered pork belly and the short rib entree that was so tender that an impure thought could cut it! It was meat candy!

The for dessert we did this dark chocolate cake and the olbea!!!! Do NOT miss out on the oblea! Both were just so divine!

The only pain I experienced was wishing I had another stomach to fit more food!

Oh and the mocktails were GREAT!“

“Roses is is a great choice if you are looking for a really special restaurant for a private party. Great food and great atmosphere. Try the Japanese Old Fashion cocktail.“

“I have been twice and so far everything has been delicious. I need to go back a few more times to try everything on the menu. Don't forget to save room for dessert. The cocktails are fantastic.“

“Very good food, wine and ambiance“

“Wow! What an experience!! So much fun and mystery packed into a cool hole in the wall. The pawn master was absolutely amazing, she was so quirky and fun and really brought the experience to life. The menu was fancy and delicious. Will 100% come back“

“Excellent cocktails that everyone enjoyed.“

“Had a lovely time both times I went. The speakeasy has very chill vibes and the board game room is really nice. Drinks were immaculate. Can't wait to try the escape room.“

“Really cool local bar…..the first time I ever tried Flor de Caña was from here…..all the proofs! Nice crowd, service, atmosphere, good drinks, vibe & bar bites! 👍🏿“

“Walk 10 minutes from MacArthur BART and you’ll find paradise in the form of a wine bar. Zach (head chef) and Emilio (line cook) are formerly of Verjus in San Francisco, and let’s just say we followed them across the bridge for a reason. Their expertise and attention to detail are evident in every bite — or sip! ;) On top of this, the service is impeccable. Our waiter, Nico, was a real gem! Thank God he moved from SoCal! Anyways, don’t take my word for it… you’ll just have to try this place for yourself!“

“I had a great time here for Wednesday night's Big Weird Trivia! Pub trivia is more fun when there is a great food menu and specialty cocktails are available! Our table ordered tacos, chips and guac, a vegan burger and fries, lemon hummus, spinach balls, fresh rice paper hand rolls. As the winners of the night's trivia quiz, we were also gifted a desert of cinnamon toast crunch chips!

I highly recommend for food, cocktails, and trivia host, Micah!“

“The food is artisan caliber, the atmosphere is welcoming and intimate, and our family GOTO!! ❤❤❤❤❤“

“If you need a bite to eat , breakfast. To set you up for the day then I would highly recommend a visit to this little corner cafe.
Food was great , coffee great and nice to sit and watch the world go by .
I got the breakfast bagel , a house coffee , latte , chocolate croissant and an orange juice all to the total of 28 dollars.“

“The decor was festive and abundant in the best way possible, and the cocktails looked unique and curiosity-piquing. I narrowed my choices down to a Cafe Sua Daddy and the Soy Sauce Old Fashioned.

I love a savory drink and the sweet caffeinated espresso martini-esque drink had a thick blanket of just-salty-enough foam reminiscent of the salt cream that tops a boba drink. The Soy Sauce Old Fashioned catapulted me back to my childhood, eating slabs of tofu drenched in shoyu at my grandma's house. I loved the custom soy bottle presentation, it was just strong enough to tolerate being poured over a large rock while maintaining its flavor.

My partner had the Umami Tots and Mapo Tofu. I couldn't resist the siren song of some crispy potatoes dunked in chili oil cream, but managed to hold myself back on the tofu- even though it smelled amazing.

Can't wait to return and try the new seasonal drinks, along with more snacks.“

“Amazing. Even one of our waiter was amazing. They forgot my sardines and they gave me mussels. Both were AMAZING. Drinks were amazing AND the staff were amazing as well. I dont usually leave reviews unless it is worth my time. Definitely a place to go“

“Blown away! Sitting at the chef’s bar was an outstanding experience. The chef made recommendations; he is a true artist of his craft - what a delight to watch. The nigiri/sushi is classic with no frills, relying completely on the quality of the fish and the expertise of the chef. What a local gem!“

“Enjoy the atmosphere and the tasty food !“

“Been coming here for over 20 years. My absolute favorite sushi bar in SF. Do you want to be social with loud music and rainbow rolls? Then don’t come here. Do you want authentic sushi with only the best of the best fish? This is your place.“

“Excellent food and service“

“A Hidden Gem!

I was initially hesitant to come here because, at the time of writing, this place had fewer than 100 reviews. But I’m so glad I gave it a chance!

This place is genuinely good and definitely worth revisiting. My only criticism is that the chicken in the tom yum soup was a little dry, which honestly isn’t shocking. A lot of places dry out their chicken, and getting it right is hard!

But the Thai papaya salad and beef Laab Seen were excellent. Bright, spicy, flavorful, and absolutely worth ordering. This place deserves more attention!“

“Great food and service ! Love the ambience and variety offerings“

“ and they put their own twists on classic Spanish tapas dishes.

I was happy to see a nice little neighborhood spot like this absolutely jumping on a Saturday evening for dinner. And service was still professional, fast, and as friendly as possible considering the crowd. Reservations highly recommended.“

“I recently dined at Barcha Restaurant and had an exceptional experience. The restaurant offers a stylish and welcoming atmosphere that is perfect for both casual gatherings and special occasions. From the moment I arrived, the staff was attentive, professional, and genuinely focused on providing excellent service.

The food was outstanding, featuring fresh ingredients, vibrant flavors, and beautiful presentation. The menu offers a diverse selection of dishes inspired by Mediterranean cuisine, including options that can accommodate various dietary preferences. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and served promptly, making the meal both enjoyable and memorable.

The restaurant was clean, elegant, and well maintained, creating a comfortable dining environment. The combination of excellent hospitality, high-quality cuisine, and inviting ambiance made this a standout experience. I would gladly return and highly recommend Barcha Restaurant to anyone looking for delicious food, attentive service, and a memorable dining experience.“

“Thank you, Le Petit Paris 75, for welcoming the Richard Crook trio to your delightful club. Always a friendly atmosphere, amazing cocktails, and awesome music line ups!“

“A delightful neighborhood venue 😊❗️“

“I’ve been coming here for years to meet w/family & friends to celebrate or anytime just because or to unwind in the comfy lounge & experience MKT Bar’s excellent service you find in a Four Seasons & the drinks are simply the best! Today was my daughter’s boyfriend’s 1st time here & he understood 💯 why we love MKT Bar & he is an awesome bartender!“

“Super delicious 👍 I never eat Japan food super good like this before.“

“Great food. I’ve been coming here for years and it’s still one of my favorite tapas places in San Francisco“

“This is one of our favorite places, though the quality/taste of the food is variable. In other words, you need to know what to order because they do some things better than others, which isn't too surprising given the many choices in their menu. My recommendation is to get the mentaiko carbonara, IMHO the best thing they serve.“

“First brewery of the day and what an excellent neighborhood brew pub sitting on the corner of Bryant St and Cesar Chavez St. A lot to choose from so we went high ABV with the Hazed & Confused Double Hazy IPA at 9%. We both enjoyed it.“

“Wonderful experience eating wonderful foods“

“Everything on the menu needs to be experienced.“

“This is a quick serve onigiri restaurant in downtown Berkeley. It's awesome to be able to get fresh onigiri in the East Bay and they include edamame as well. We split a plate of 3 and got the short rib(x2) and the unagi. Very small inside the restaurant, very much a get your food and go type place, but there is some room to eat standing up. They were quick, well priced and delicious. The perfect quick bite.“

“My wife and I host many events there, for singles and everybody else to mingle! Popcorn Machine in the corner of the bar is a nice touch. The place is just a stones throw from UC Berkely but it has a chill cocktail lounge asthetic. Also it is pet friendly! Bring the frenchie and enjoy a drink with some popcorn!“

“Only stopped by this place for a quick drink, but it definitely left a great impression. Looking forward to coming back and trying more from the menu next time. The drink menu features plenty of options including those from Japan.

The edamame ended up being the highlight of our visit, which was done really well!

Service was great throughout, and we really enjoyed the overall vibe of the place. It had a relaxed atmosphere that made it easy to settle in, even for a short stop.

Would definitely return and recommend checking it out!“

“Fun charming, local wine bar“

“The FOOD. The FOOD. The FOOD. The FOOD.“

“Excellent costumer service love their drinks and happy hour. Food is delicious I recommend it to have drinks !“

“I enjoyed coming here. All the servers are really cool and casual. It's definitely like a little bit of a party environment in this restaurant - everyone is just having a good time. The sushi is good. The head chef was really awesome and just came to our table various times and explained what he was doing. He was serving us and it's just a really great vibe. They have an $11.99 all-you-can-drink special, so $11.99 per person. I'll definitely be coming back. They also have this weird robot thing, so the service is super fast despite only being one or two servers for the whole restaurant. I think I'll definitely be coming back and maybe even hosting a party here or something like that.“

“Food is great ! Service is so so . They did forget a dish and were a bit slow even after the happy hour rush ended . They brought the bill before asking whether we wanted dessert ( we did ) this time and the last time we came . Still I’d go back as the food is too good!“

“Some of the best happy hour oysters I’ve EVER had in the bay! Shucked perfectly, no stray shell bits or dodgy looking insides, and I love that it comes with real horseradish. I’ll be back just for these, but the other food and drinks we got were just as excellent.“

“I recently attended a lunch celebration at Co Nam for my niece’s high school graduation, and it was a wonderful experience from beginning to end.

The food was outstanding. Every dish I tried was beautifully presented, fresh, and full of flavor. The shrimp rolls were light and refreshing, the grilled prawn citrus salad was vibrant and delicious, the garlic noodles were packed with flavor, and the roti with curry dipping sauce was impossible to stop eating. Everything that came to the table was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented.

What impressed me just as much as the food was the service. Our group spent hours at the restaurant enjoying the celebration, taking photos, and catching up with family. Throughout the afternoon, the staff remained warm, attentive, and accommodating. Even as we lingered well after lunch, they never made us feel rushed and continued to provide excellent service.

The atmosphere was perfect for the occasion. The restaurant felt inviting and the attention to detail throughout the space complemented the celebration beautifully.

It's easy to find a restaurant with good food. It's much harder to find one that pairs excellent food with genuine hospitality. Co Nam delivered both. I left impressed not only by the quality of the meal but by how welcome they made our entire group feel.

Thank you to the Co Nam team for helping make such a special day even more memorable.“

“Always a great time! congrats“

“The view is amazing! Love the history ❤️“

“Very elegant bar with an amazing view. It is definitely worth coming here to have a drink. The cocktails are pretty good, and the waiters are amazing. They know people come here for the view, and whenever better tables are available for pictures, they will offer them to you. 😉“

“Josh and Jace made our night! Thank you for the hospitality ��“
