“Great dive bar. Has music on Friday nights. Saturdays too maybe? It's very popular with 20s & 30s crowds, but older folks frequent it as well. It gets going on the weekends and has a great patio. One of the best dive bars around. Only problem is there are not other dive bars around, so if you're in the mood to bar hop, maybe not the best option.“
“We had a good meal here. The risotto was fabulous. I had soup and a side of shrimp that was good too. I do wish they had more salads to pick from. I have only eaten lunch here before and I do love their shrimp and grits. Drinks could be bigger. We went a little before the rush and it was still really loud. Not easy on the ears. It's very indicative of Danville Ca. A bit posh but not too much.“
“Best Burmese restaurant in the Bay Area in my opinion. The restaurant is so clean and service is superb. Coconut chicken noodle soup had layers of flavors and the whole tilapia dish topped with green mango relish was just refreshing. Can’t wait till the next visit!“
“I had the best red lentils I've ever tasted here. The vegetable wot is especially good, well seasoned greens, cabbage, corn, etc. on injera. And the parking's good, especially for Berkeley. My companion and I each got parking spots right in front of the restaurant.“
“So, to begin with. When you see the place from a street, it is not the first choice to swing by, yet when you peek through the window, you'll see an open kitchen with food being cooked nonstop, a hood sign.Inside the place seems a bit crowded, yet you could probably squeeze 8n at the bar if you ask nicely even if you don't have reservation :)And now the food, fantastic italian cusine - the pasta is appropriately aldente, tomato sauce is fantastic, the beef carpaccio blows you away.And in the end you feel guilty if you miss the dessert.I would definitely recommend making a reservation and arrive hungry.Parking in a garage nearby is plenty.“
“Sometimes you need a mid day cider, or beer, or wine... you know where I'm going with this. Came in on a Thursday afternoon for some me time, and was shocked at myself for never seeing this place. Redfield will now definitely be a staple. The shop itself is super cute with relaxing music - you know to make work just a bit more bearable. The selection of cider is amazing - and having that hot cider on a chilly day is a must do this fall! I recommend the Mission Trail Cherries - It's the perfect amount of sweet and boozy, and the color is beautiful! It was described to me as kind of like a port but in cider form and being aged in a barrel (I can't remember what kind of barrel) - so just the right thing for me. Over all 10/10! Great drinks, friendly staff, and you can even buy some bottles for to go! Do yourself a favor - get a drink this weekend and if you're cold - get a hot cider.“
“Our favorite place in Martinez! We love the food, cocktails, fabulous staff, and live music. You can feel the care that goes into everything they offer. Definitely get reservations because Roxx is popular with the locals and out-of-towners.“
“Not too impressed with the cocktail I got a Toki highball, not much to say it was flat no flavor. Had appetizer's only, the fries and chicharrones. Great value, well done and for the chicharrones a unique way to serve them with salsa. Needs more salsa.The place is a bit loud, low lighting as well. Staff was great.“
“My first Kava experience didn’t disappoint! Upon learning this was my first time trying Kava, the barista offered us a ceremony to try it first and explained the origin and types of Kava to me.Tried the Colada and warm special Kava. Def a fun experience that’s quintessential Berkeley / Oakland. Check them out if you are in the area.“
“Just out boppin around with my pal Allhans Ondek after spending the day on his fishing boat, looking for stripers, we were hungry and heading to the Speisekammer Restaurant for some Wiener Schnitzel. His boat, The Slippery Beaver, named after his ex-wife is moored in Alameda, and not too far from the Speisekammer Restaurant, Allhans tells me they prepare the best Schnitzel in the world! So, with a recommendation like that...I've got to go.And I'll tell you what...the Schnitzel was Amazing! 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆“
“Ok so first, the food was absolutely DELICIOUS, AMAZING, TERRIFIC, and so much more. Second, once you have ordered your food it will come in 15 or less minutes! Third, once you come into the restaurant, (you may have to wait in a line) the hostess will ask you for your name and phone number, if you want to be seated outside or inside, and how long the wait time is (about 20 minutes). Lastly, you should definitely consider coming to Jack's if you're feeling hungry! (They serve breakfast until 2:00pm and lunch all day.) PS you HAVE to try the Mac and cheese!Vegetarian options: You could get the omelet (which is very good) if you are looking for something that is for vegetarians.Kid-friendliness: The hostess would ask you if you want a kid(s) menus. Plenty of options on the kids menu.“
“I always enjoy The Wolf. Great lunch today. I had the cod sandwich which was just as good as the last time I had it. My friend had the popover and soup. We sat on the patio and it was so relaxing. I didn't feel rushed at all, which I really appreciated after a crazy week.“
“I enjoy Boathouse and the small town vibes it gives. There is a chill atmosphere, they have good drinks and attentive bartenders (Janet + Christian). The only downside is that I don't enjoy when there is that guitar guy there randomly strumming songs in the background. They turn all of the music off and it makes it low key uncomfortable and really puts the vibe in an odd place. The guitar guy doesn't sing, he doesn't play entire songs and he doesn't even play songs that are fun/exciting/good bar vibes. This is an entirely too huge downfall because atmosphere and music in a bar play an insurmountable part in the success and continuity of business. I actually left when the man started playing his guitar again because it was honestly really odd and just put the whole mood. I will definitely return and I sincerely hope that I don't accidentally come on another night where this random man is playing his guitar at random parts of the night. I would literally walk out again if that happened haha. No hate to guitar man it's just weird that they shut off the entire bar music to let this dude strum his guitar in background. Also the kitchen was closed but they served select folks in the bar, which I was not one of and I was hungry. Hopefully they standardize the rules and entertainment. Cheers!!“
“Kona Club is the best! The decor is amazing and you feel really transported to another place once you walk in the door. The drinks are well priced and top notch (Chi Chi is a must for first timers). My favorites are the Painkiller and the Konarita.The bartenders are great - just beware forewarned that they are slammed on the weekends and it may take some time to get served.“
“We had a great night on our dinner date. I highly recommend this spot if you are in the mood for Peruvian food. Our waitress was very nice and attentive. She brought out two samples of wine for me to try and waited until I made my decision. I appreciated this. I would recommend if it’s your first time, the Empanada Sampler of all 4. I would have naturally leaned towards the Cheese with Avocado sauce or the Vegetarian but to my surprise loved the Beef with Rocoto Aioli best. For dinner I had the Organic Quinoa Chopped Salad with chicken. It has romaine, radish, green beans, tomatoes, onions, corn, cilantro, avocado, lime vinaigrette and I loved it! I will be back just for this salad. The flavors were light and the chicken was perfect. It didn’t feel like too much which left room for dessert. My partner had the Shredded Chicken Stew, with slow cooked chicken breast simmered in a mild yellow pepper sauce, with hard boiled egg, Peruvian olive, walnuts and parmesan cheese, served with rice. He liked it and felt it was an authentic dish but would probably try something different next time. Dessert, the bread pudding was wonderful. Pineapple and coconut served with bourbon caramel sauce and whipped cream. If you enjoy these flavors I would recommend this! We will definitely be back!“
“The Barbary is one of the best cocktail bars in Oakland, bar none. The prices range from $13-$16 per cocktail. My partner said this place has the best Old Fashioned they've ever had. I'm a fan of the Spice Trader and the Black Tot Grog. Don't let the prices deter you; the quality makes it worthwhile. The pirate/nautical theme has good ambiance. It's not overbearing, but definitely not something you can overlook. I'd call it cute and whimsical, and I appreciate that the art on the walls was bought from small artists on Etsy. It vaguely reminds me of the vibe on Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean ride. Like, a little homemade and dated but done with love and extreme attention to detail. On weekends they have live music, often jazz, and it's been good stuff every time I came here. The staff is all great. Owners are often on-site. Jorge, the door guy, is friendly and helpful and welcoming. I highly recommend this as a place for a date night. It's classy, cool, and serves up good drinks. Really happy to have this place on Grand!“
“When I moved here from San Diego 2 years ago, I took a short walk and found this spot. Within moments, I was served by a great lady. Within 5 more minutes, I called her back over, introduced myself, and told her that I'd just moved here and that this was going to be my new spot. They knew my name and what I drank in the first two weeks. I consider them all friends now, and when I move to Lake Merritt next week, it's this bar and it's staff I will miss most about Alameda. It's one of my top 5 bars ever in life, and that's a life that's gotten me to the age of 61, and has been to bars all over the planet in this lifetime. Absolutely fantastic bar.“
“I think the food here is fabulous! The pita, hummus, salads and halvah are shoulders above everyone else's. I haven't tried the sandwiches yet because the hummus bowl and pitas are so hard to resist. I've taken home the frozen pitas and containers of humus from the store, too. They are so delicious they make it very hard to want to waste the calories on the versions possibly more conveniently available everywhere else. I'm just sad they close so early, since I'd love to grab dinner here sometimes but eating before 5:30 usually doesn't work out for me.“
“Second time coming here and had different food items. All were amazing. The spices used and the quality of the food is really great. I so enjoy this restaurant. B, our server was wonderful. she was gracious, knowledgeable, and gave us good suggestions on what to order. It was a great night.“
“Sounds like they have jazz and local acts for live music on a regular basis - we went on a Wednesday and Bob Scott Trio was playing. They were so much fun to listen to and watch! Nice guys too when we had a chance to chat in between sets.Chicken Sammie buffalo style was pretty good - large though, went home with leftovers! Super sturdy bread which was delicious.“
“Pleasantly surprised! For whatever reason I had never tried Akira before. I'm so glad I finally have. I met up with a couple of friends and we enjoyed drinks and shared a bunch of sushi. There are lots of options on the menu and everything we tried was tasty and super fresh! We were chatting so much that we closed the place down. This might seem random, but I was so impressed by the extensive cleaning they did at the end of the night. This alone will have me frequenting Akira from now on.“
“Out of the 3 bars on Piedmont Ave, I enjoy the Lodge the most. Free Popcorn, outdoor covered patio, dog friendly, well priced drinks, slushy option, and the atmosphere rad Oaklanders and a cabin theme throughout.FEMALE OWNED!New food pop up is Pancho's cafe serving wings burgers tacos and a chicken sandos. Oh yeah and Friday Cupcakes by Irene to get the weekend started right!Vegetarian options: new pop up is committed to offering something for everyone.“
“Wow, this bar felt quite hidden away from the world behind gray doors despite being on a busy commercial stretch of Lakeshore. There was a cat sign, but Jamie W. and I kept missing it as we strolled back and forth just before it opened at 4PM. When we finally entered, it was a stylish space but overly so with vintage accents producing the requisite chill atmosphere. Let me be honest though. We came for the craft cocktails we saw on their website, and Keenan was the cool bartender who was there to make them for us. I tried the $14 Dear Irene, a blended Pina Colada riff with gin, coconut, ginger, mint, cane, and lime. A lovely libation. Jamie had the $14 Blue Meanie which had a more tantalizing tropical taste. It had a nice kick consisting of eight-year-old Haitian & Banana Rum, Giffard Coconut, lime, and blue curaçao (photo: So satisfying that we had another round. I went with the $14 E&E, a vibrant mix of tequila, mezcal, lime, cilantro, pineapple, and jalapeño over rocks. It was like a short margarita. Jamie tried the $14 Mata Hari, which sounds more mysterious than it was. It left out tequila and mixed mezcal, amaro nardini, lime, and tamarind syrup into a saucy, south-of-the-border libation (photo: While Dear Irene was the definitive standout, all the cocktails provided a nice symphony of compatible flavors. Otherwise I was just drunk. Either way, it made for a satisfying visit at this hidden hideaway close to Lake Merritt. COCKTAILS - 4 stars..,well tested libations with the Dear Irene a standout AMBIANCE - 4 stars...stylish, vintage space with a large enough bar at an inconspicuous address SERVICE - 4 stars...Keenan is a very helpful bartender TOTAL - 4 stars...a chill hangout on Lakeshore RELATED - Exploring Oakland? Here's a collection of places I've patronized and reviewed:“
“This is such a unique place, with a super fun & special ambiance. The beer/drink offerings do underwhelm a bit, but the environment and special events they run regularly are enough to make up for it.The bar staff have always been friendly and attentive in my visits here, so no complaints on the service.“
“I recently dined at the Walnut Creek Yacht Club and came away with mixed feelings. On the plus side, the food is always well-prepared, a testament to the kitchen's consistency and skill. The Chelsea Gem oysters were a standout, arriving at the table perfect in every way and setting a high bar for the rest of the meal.However, not all dishes reached this level of excellence. The halibut with citrus butter, while very good, didn't quite live up to expectations, lacking a certain special touch that would make it memorable. Similarly, the clam pasta fell short of the mark. It was quite bland and suffered from an overabundance of butter, overshadowing the clams themselves.In summary, while there are definite highlights like the impeccable Chelsea Gem oysters, some offerings could benefit from a bit more inspiration and balance. The Walnut Creek Yacht Club has the potential for greatness, but a little more attention to the flavor profiles of some dishes would go a long way.3.5 stars.“
“Can't go wrong with Happy Hours here! Ordered two personal pizzas - deep-dish and thin crust. The blue cheese flavor was kinda lacking, but it's happy hour price so not the end of the world here. Well cocktails are $7 so that's a steal too!Saw a vault on the way to the restroom.. what's that about?“
“Great selection of top notch beers on tap and many more in bottle. The bar tender was knowledgeable and helpful in making selections. It has the feeling of an off the path rathskeller in Germany. Prices on bottled offerings can get high as some are rare or uncommon in the US. We did not try any food. They post their taps on the Untapped app. A great place to try a beer you might not find anywhere else and have good conversation with a friend.Parking: Metered start parking with extended meter hours.“
“My wife and I sat at the bar as the place was packed. We were told it was reservations only at the moment, so the place is definitely popular on a Friday night. We ordered the street tacos and pozole. The pozole was delicious and hearty. The tacos were also tasty and filling. The pozole was so much better than the last time I had eaten here and commented this to our server. A new chef has brought more spice and discipline in the dishes being made which has resulted in delicious dishes. For dessert my wife and I had tres leches cake, churros and coffee. All were scrumptious and as sweet as heaven. I will definitely start coming here more often.“
“Thank you Benton for being a local love Hide out! The Marley G's pizza is a must when just hanging at the bar. Shout out to an amazing pool table- and of course my favs Steve, Peppi & Siobhan ???? You guys rock and I know when I see you my cocktail is gonna be perfect. See super soon.“
“My co-grandma bestie and I lunched at Yard House, had a wonderful server (Stephanie?)We ordered Brussels sprouts and chicken tenders to split halvsies.Delicious!!The computer at the table was for Stephanie to place the order, and she explained how to use it to pay when we were ready•We got the tab to split the check and each paid ours.“
“This place is a go to, open pretty late good food and nice sized portions. The service is always good and fast. Usual orders are duck noodle soup or chicken pad see ew. Duck soup is never to oily and seasoned well.Pad see ew is flavorful with lots of chicken and veggies, not too sweet or saucy.Parking: Free parking lot in the shopping centerWheelchair accessibility: Accessible and welcome“
“You could drive by this place for years and not know they serve one of the best birrias in the bay area. The closest thing you can find to Jalisco/Guadalajara. I love the complimentary bean tacos. I get chivo but they also have borrego on weekends. Ask for your cosume rojo or con salsita.“
“Great selection of beers and wine. I've been back 2 times(many times now) and have had a great time each visit. Nice place to watch sports. The bartenders are all nice, friendly and attentive.I still need to explore the food menu. To be continued...Part 2: the food is amazing for bar food and the menu has many different types to choose from; Burgers, wings, lumpia, wraps, and much more. They offer many different dipping sauces. And some are uniquely made in house.They also offer free wi fi ???Update to review: The food has gotten even better! You will find a full menu with about 50 items and specials every night to keep things new. Every thing I've ordered has been almost gourmet level and delicious. The ownership is doing a superb job on the menu and food preparation.“
“Renewed interest when I saw their Instagram post about allowing friendly dogs inside. My friend was dog sitting and took our dog over to the confusion of the workers who said there was just a dog brawl the week before and didn't know the owner had made that post. They let him stay though, and our dog were the only one, so she got all the attention. Today there is one dog at the bar and two out on the parklet. My husband and I were third in line to "seat ourselves" at 6:45pm on a Friday in February. The couple in front of us left and we were next because the party of 4 wanted a booth. We were seated at the end of the long copper table meant for groups. We have been here with a larger group before. The only annoying thing about this seat is that some people who are impatient hover above you while they wait for a table. The waitstaff is efficient. They take your order and clear your table quickly. The check is paid with handheld machine and it's now a cashless restaurant. There are four tvs for sports lovers. Three over the bar and one in the "dining area." There are a few parklet tables, and some tables in the windows, which open during nice weather. Very convenient location across from Rockridge BART. Otherwise you can pay for street parking or find free residential parking. There are two unisex restroom, one hidden in the dining corner, and the other towards the kitchen. There is a full bar and happy hour. You can sign up for their email list or social media to keep up on events, but they regularly have karaoke and trivia. If you walk by, they will have posters on their windows. We have been here only occasionally over the last 10 years of living in Rockridge. Today we had the deviled eggs, which come six in a plate and are well formed. The cheeseburger is juicy but too bready for my liking. The fries have that double crisp crust trend that showed up some decade ago for no good reason, but ketchup helps everything. There is a caddy full of all kinds of condiments for the table. We also had the Caesar kale salad, which is very big. The chicken cubes are juicy but the crispy garbanzos aren't too cohesive. We asked for a takeout box and it was compostable and came to the table for us to self pack. Kid friendly so there were some kids during our visit. Neighborhood bar and grill. Nothing mind blowing but a good staple to have in the area. There is wifi available, check the menu on the wall for the password.“

“Recently checked out Bambino's this past week and it was a blast. First off, big ups to Kat behind the bar. She's quick, on point, and really makes sure you're all good. It's like she's everywhere at once but still has time to make your experience personal. Now, the pizza. It's honestly the best I've ever had. The crust? Perfect. The toppings? Fresh and flavorful. It's the kind of pizza you'll crave after you've had it once. So yeah, Bambino's is a solid win. Great service from Kat, amazing pizza, and just a good place to be. Can't wait to go back.“
“Kerry House, nestled on Piedmont Avenue in Oakland, stands as an exceptional local haunt revered by residents for its vibrant atmosphere and welcoming vibe. The establishment boasts a well-curated jukebox and an inviting outdoor patio where smoking is permitted, making it a rare find. Bartenders exude energy and friendliness, contributing to the lively ambiance that has been a hallmark of Kerry House for years. Flanked by exquisite restaurants and charming baguette spots to both the left and right, it's positioned in a bustling area, promising an engaging experience. While soaking in the locale's lively spirit, visitors should be mindful of parking regulations. Ensure you feed the meter or opt for paid parking to avoid the inconvenience of a ticket. Kerry House is more than a bar; it's a testament to Oakland's spirited community and a must-visit spot for an authentic local experience.“
“This place has the best Italian food around. Service was amazing as well. My only question is why it's usually so empty? I've been there 4-5 times and always only 2-3 other tables. Location in a run down strip mall, decor needs help, but go for the food❤️“
“This is a gorgeous, brilliant lounge! Perfectly lively, but relaxing vibes with amazing drinks and comfortable seats! Menu also has snacks in case you want food! Staff was super friendly too! On the smaller side, but go early and you'll def get a spot! I'll be returning!“
“Quality and presentation is great and the food is good. However, a great meal (especially the Indian cuisine) isn’t just about sustenance. The Ingredients and Spices are the magical tools, adding depth, warmth, and complexity to every dish transforming ordinary meal into extraordinary experiences. So with that in mind, I recommend the sizzling dishes, we had fish and prawns which were good & tasty. I was not impressed by the Chicken Tikka Masala which is my favorite dish, it was too ordinary and just dull. The Fish curry was ok. The rice is too ordinary and not what I expect for an Indian Basmati rice. Nan/Garlic-Nun are good as well as the Samosas. 3.1/2 Starts for Food.(3= Good, 4= Great, 5= Exceptional.)“
“An Amtrak layover for me. First time in this city. A lady at the Chamber of Commerce recommended it to me. Walking distance from the train station. I had the large Gyros. The meat was seasoned wonderfully. Yet, that beautiful meat taste was overcome by excessive lettuce. Thereby, not having as much meat as other places. When I go back I will take off the majority of the lettuce, but I still take issue with the lack of a good quantity of meat. The first picture is after I cut it in half. Another patron had the Greek fries which looked wonderful. I will go back and try them with another dish, but as far as the Gyros, not enough meat for the price. But let me state clearly...what meat was present was absolutely wonderfully tasty.“
“The place is always reliable, their hot bread with special sauce was one of a kind, cappacio was good, our waiter was good. Their own label wine was a little disappointing and I ordered the pork chop and was a little too cooked and it became dry. Otherwise, it would have been perfect. With $18 for corkage, I’ll bring my own bottle the next time.“
“Looking for a laid-back spot to kick back, catch the game, or maybe even belt out a tune or two? Look no further than Pho Nation. My hubby and I recently ventured there for a date night, and while it wasn't a culinary revelation, it certainly delivered in terms of atmosphere and vibe. First off, let's talk ambiance. Pho Nation is the kind of place where you can unwind, soak in the energy, and just have a good time. Whether you're cheering on your favorite team or belting out your go-to karaoke jam in the back, there's never a dull moment. The only downside? If you're hoping for an intimate chat, you might find yourself shouting over the music, which can get a tad loud at times. But hey, who needs deep conversation when you've got good food and great company, right? Which brings me to the food. Now, don't get me wrong - it wasn't mind-blowing, but it hit the spot. Think your standard Vietnamese fare - pho, spring rolls, banh mi - nothing to write home about, but tasty enough to satisfy those late-night cravings. Plus, the portions were generous, so you definitely won't leave hungry. If you're looking for a fun spot to hang out with friends, catch a game, or unleash your inner karaoke star, Pho Nation is your jam. Just don't expect culinary fireworks - the food is solid but nothing out of the ordinary. Still, with its lively atmosphere and chill vibes, it's the perfect place to unwind after a long day or kick off a late-night adventure with your crew.“
“Stepping into Clubhouse is like diving into a bubble of pure joy – 5 stars all around for its vibey atmosphere, impeccable service, and stellar booze selection! Cocoa, the heart and soul behind the bar (owner), truly goes the extra mile to ensure everyone's experience is top-notch, not to mention the spotless cleanliness. And oh, the parklet! It's the cherry on top, perfect for sipping your drink under the stars and mingling with the coolest crowd. Can't forget to shoutout to bartender Chris – her party was the talk of the town; absolutely legendary. Clubhouse isn't just a bar, it's a love letter to good times!“
“This is great place to enjoy a very good lunch special. I have only been here for lunch, so this review is based on my experiences during lunch time. Food: 5/5 Every time I have been here the food has been excellent. The portions are huge, everything is hot and fresh tasting, the sauces are great and I love the flavor and spice of the hot and sour soup. During the lunch special, it includes a good amount of food for a very reasonable price. I usually get the Kung Pao Chicken. It includes one entreé, rice (white or fried is included, or brown for $2 extra) 2 wonton chip, as well as hot and sour soup or wonton soup. The chicken is always very good and the veggies are always perfectly cooked. All that food for only 12 dollars! Service: 5/5 Every time we have been here we are seated quickly. In fact everything is very fast. Our food came out about 5 minutes after ordering and our server was ready to take our order within 2-5 minutes of sitting down. (But, they don't rush you. You have as much time as you need to look at the menu.) Ambiance/Space: 4/5 The ambiance is good, it's not anything extremely special, but it's comfortable. The restaurant is actually a pretty good size as well. They have 2 dining room areas, one of which has a bar (The room with the bar is usually closed during lunch). They also have a couple small tables on a small patio outside for nice days. Parking: 4/5 There is ample parking right in front of the restaurant. The only reason it is 4/5 is because this is a city parking lot and you have to pay to get a parking permit. Although it is very cheap. We paid like $1.50 for almost 2.5 hours! I'm sure it's very good for dinner as well. This is definitely a great little gem if you're wanting to explore the antique shops and the surrounding area in the nice little downtown of Martinez. After we eat here we usually like to check out the antique shop called Antique Corner right across the street. I will posting a review about them as well.“
“Classic Saloon in the hart of downtown Danville. Friendliest local patrons and savvy bartenders help create a fun atmosphere and an honest drink. This cash only Saloon also offers shuffle board, touch tunes, and your favorite sport on multiple displays. Come join the fun !!“
“We went on a Saturday and it wasn't as busy as we thought it would be. It's conveniently located next to Walmart which has everything. The beer was good. The pool tables were nicely spaced out with good vibes all around. The lower level area is very chill and relaxed. I liked everything about this place and enjoyed playing my game. Security was friendly.“
“Service was really great! Everyone was friendly and food and drinks came out quickly. Server was circling around the whole time, so we didn’t have to wait ever.Steak dish was good, especially the mashed potatoes. We also liked the hummus, croquettas, and the salad.Cute spot, cold inside though.“
“It’s great, but keep in mind their “extra hot” is extremely mild. I’m sure they’re catering to the clientele, but I want to be able to order food at a spiciness level that causes me physical anguish. They need an “I expect this to give me caustic diarrhea” level of spiciness.“
“We stopped in on a Monday for dinner. Apparently they host a charity each Monday with volunteer servers donating their tips and 10% of the bill to support a cause. A noble action by the owners to support the community. They serve a limited menu, but had what I wanted - pappardelle with pork ragout. Aldente pasta and a rich flavor on the sauce. I devoured the bowl. The portion seemed small, but was just enough.“
“I absolutely dig Batch and Brine. Their food has always been good, their servers have always been spot on, even their drinks are great even though they got rid of my favorite cocktail a few years ago. If you are a burger person eat their Blue burger. It is great every time I order it.“
