“This restaurant serving Azerbaijani cuisine is an absolute must-visit. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. The food is exceptional — every dish, from the starters and salads to the main courses, is beautifully presented and bursts with authentic and unique flavor. Be sure to try the Khojaly lamb shank, kebabs, shah plov and dolma — you won’t find anything like them anywhere else in the Bay Area.

What truly sets Bistro 4293 apart is the owner, Anar. He’s a genuinely great guy with a wonderful sense of humor, plenty of engaging stories and a true passion for what he does. He is very friendly, down-to-earth and always open to feedback. Anar brings a personal touch that makes every visit memorable. He often stops by tables to chat with guests, making the dining experience feel more like a gathering among friends. It is obvious he loves his restaurant and is passionate about what he does.

This place offers one of the best dining experiences — and most importantly, best values — in the area. Can’t recommend it highly enough!“

“The food was good, but there was a significant delay with my Snackpass pickup. My order number was incorrectly labeled, causing the food to sit on the counter for over 20 minutes until I spoke up about not receiving my food three separate times. No compensation, just an apology.

Update: I've came back multiple times. I love the food, and I haven't had an issue since! Would highly recommend.“

“Drove up from San Jose to meet with out of state family and this was recommended. Beautiful atmosphere, fantastic service, and decent pricing. Many great, delicious choices and all with good size portions.
You can eat outdoors or inside comfortably.
Other restaurant owners should send a couple of spies over to observe and understand why a great and friendly restaurant such as Zut! Is always busy with happy customers.
Parking can be an issue on weekends due to that Berkeley area being so popular, but
go for it.“

“Absolutely loved the falafel bowl, with a huge portion size. Would highly recommend their grandma’s sauce to top it up, very flavourful, lightly spiced, perfect to balance the hummus and falafel.

The falafel burger with sweet potato fries was equally underwhelming. The burger was tasteless and dry with falafel as the patty and just ketchup. Would have been so much nicer with hummus or any other sauces on top. The fries were hard and chewy, definitely seemed refried and not fresh.

The strawberry lychee cooler was deliciously soothing, not too sweet, just perfect.

The baklava was too soggy and sweet. Not terrible but also not great.

Overall, the bowls are a safe bet which will not disappoint“
