“We came here after watching Hasan vs. Ronnie at the Fox Theater.

They had so many options to choose from! I got the Thai Tea Conquito, and it was so good. It had a bold Thai tea flavor with hints of vanilla and warm spices. Highly recommended!“

“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!“

“This is the best natural wine bar in Oakland and a neighborhood staple. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The wine selection is consistently amazing, both in terms of bottles and rotating menu items. There are also frequent food pop ups in their kitchen in addition to their regular menu.“

“I was craving some pad see ew today and decided to try a new spot closer to the office, and I am so glad I found Rose Garden Uptown! It's only five minutes away, and the service was absolutely wonderful. My order was ready early, and the gentleman at the front was incredibly sweet.

Everything smelled so delightful on the way back, and the fried rice pork chop, sweet chicken, and beef pad see ew were all a perfect 10/10! I'm so thrilled to have found this wonderful gem, and it is definitely going to be my new go-to spot.

My only complaint is parking --parking sucks lol I had to drive around 3 times.“

“Came here for Valentine’s Day expecting to indulge and try out the Chef Bar or Chef Table experience but those were not available at the time. We were informed there may be a Pri-fixe menu beforehand but that was not available that day either. We had no issues with that, but it would be preferable if they made sure they are able to offer the experiences that are available on the website. We ordered the wicked buns, Saigon give you wings, garlic noodle and the bo luc lac. The food was out very quickly.

🥙 Wicked Buns: The wicked buns were quite good. Truly cannot go wrong with some fried bao buns!

🍗 Chicken Wings: We really enjoyed the chicken wings as well. The fish sauce gives the wings a nice sweetness and makes them quite addicting.

🍝 Garlic Noodles: The garlic noodles had a nice char flavor to it. We could see them set it on fire from the bar, although we felt that the garlic noodles could have had a bit more salt and garlic in them. The shrimp also tasted frozen but they were still good.

🥩 Bo Luc Lac: We enjoyed the bo luc lac as well, it was cooked well and quite tender. It was very flavorful to the point it made us wish we had ordered the dirty rice with it.

🍹Cocktails: For drinks I asked the bartender what he recommended and offered to make me something. It wasn’t off-menu, but he made the Pillow Talks which had gin, calamansi and egg white in it. It had a nice flavor profile and balance and creaminess to the drink. I also ordered the Pandanmonium which is a pandan old fashioned which I really enjoyed. The drinks were quite fairly priced as well which I really appreciated.

Overall, I think the portion sizes can be a little small for the price, but the food is delicious and great. The drinks are also great and I would definitely come back for them!“
