“If you've ever been to Les Deux Magots in St. Germain, this is the spot to check out, hang out, sip, while snacking on something freshly made in front of you.
The ambiance will get you first, the attention to detail say's a lot about the love put into La Loulou. The service is fabulous, they will remember your last drink. I'm a quirky 'orderer' and they remembered the nuance of how I like my drink.
Also, don't forget to checkout the bathroom.
Merci!!!“

“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!“

“Short wait on a Friday night for 7 of us. Really small place but the wait staff and owner very friendly and everyone was very happy with their meal. If I lived here I would go back.“

“My daughter took me and the hubby here for our Thanksgiving celebration since she couldn't come home (Sac) for actual Thanksgiving, we went to her. This was a night I won't soon forget! Having a nice meal with our daughter was a treat, the service was amazing and the food....OMG! Every bite of every dish I tasted was so so delicious! I can't get the butternut soup out of my head it was THAT good! We all ordered different food & shared bites with one another. This night was so enjoyable! Thank you, Sis & Thank you Mama Oakland!“
“Thrilled to share a five-star review for Henry, Kylie Ann and Alta Vina. I've been a customer here since they opened in June 2025, and I'm so impressed by the thought, care and love that have gone into building this business in its first year.
Henry is a wine expert who's always thinking of how to enhance the space, elevate the experience and refine the selection of wines he serves. His focus on finding the best small batch wines from California (Alta and Baja!) is laser-sharp and is matched only by his focus on finding new, meaningful, fun ways to bring in new customers and regulars alike.
Henry and the whole team are so welcoming to everyone who comes in the door. My partner, my dog and I always feel at home when we stop by.
Highly recommended.“

“This is a lovely little wine bar! Excellent selection, and the owner was kind enough to put together a little charcuterie board for one person (although the normal size serves 2-3).
I highly recommend stopping by for a glass and a nibble if you’re shopping in the area - very relaxing space.“

“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!“

“A wonderful vibe here with good energy from both the staff and patrons. The atmosphere is exceptional, with beautiful art, plush comfy seating options and a really terrific community bulletin board with so much of the best kinds of offerings and requests from the Oakland community. I always spend a while perusing it, just for the joy it gives me.“
“A grown and sexy lounge that is also cigar friendly but very casual and minimal. Incredibly GOOD live music including jazz and salsa. The quality of the musicians cannot be overstated! They hold various events so check their website for what’s upcoming. Love their live music if you can’t tell! 💕“
“1) Wine was so good and service was excellent. They are so nice here and passionate about their craft!2) If you buy a two bottles then a tasting flight is free. Would recommended starting with a flight and using that to pick which bottles to get.3) After we bought two bottles, we decided to cork one on the spot, and they waived the corking fee, very kindly of them.Thanks for a great experience!“

“Wow, unbelievably delicious, and a beautiful, calm vibe, too! A wide selection of amazing-looking salads to mix and match; I got one with figs, fennel, and goat cheese and one with sweet potatoes and roasted tomatoes, and both were super-good. The salads come with rice and arugula, and you can add extra proteins if you want. Very enjoyable — I’ll be back!“

“😀First visit here after years of walking past it. The veggie combo and meat combo platters were among the best I've had at Berkeley and Oakland's many great Ethiopian restaurants. Service was very fast and friendly and outdoor back-patio was peaceful. I will be back soon and often.“

“I’d gatekeep this place, if I was evil. Fantastic establishment. Oysters are sourced for flavor and not for brand; I’d say they have the best selection in the local area. Food is cooked to perfection and with care. Recipes are Californian, except for - and don’t sleep on - their Buffalo (NY) options such as the fleck and the wings. Excellent stuff. Service is chill and wonderful backyard.“

“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.“

“Love this little spot. We were able to walk right in, but reservations are recommended. We did more tapas style with several items: 🦪 flight, crudo, smoked trout dip, chips, and homemade focaccia. Everything was fresh and full of flavor. Excellent service and good vibes. I would definitely go back and try more“

“From moment I walked in, I felt so taken care of by the staff. They were so friendly and accommodating, even while I waited alone for 20 minutes for my late date. The croquettes were like perfect puffs of pillow heaven. The patatas were crispy perfection! And the wine selections were amazing, I had to try 3 different types. It's such a gem in the neighbor and made me reminiscent of my travels in Spain.“

“Amazing cozy little spot. I will say I'm not a huge natural wine fan but still found a few tasty sips here. My natural wine friends really enjoyed it. The charcuterie and bottle selection were incredible. We came early so it wasn't busy at all and really enjoyed the space. Thanks!“

“Dropped into this place to grab a few drinks before our show at the Fox theater and highly recommend. Great cocktails, local brews, and knowledgable bartenders. No food but you can bring your own, and the takeout from the thai place just down the street they recommended was amazing.“
“I discovered this great gem of a bar during the final Hayward B street block party of the season! The owner was very friendly & the bar tender was amazing! She was working so hard because it was super busy. I ordered the Lemon Pepper Chicken wings & they were the best I'd ever had. YUM!! They took awhile to come but as I said they were super busy at the time, but they were well worth the wait. Come on down to Blue Crown Bar & Bistro!!“
“The cutest little coffee shop attached to the Claremont. The service was impeccable. Attentive, kind, friendly, and warm. The drinks were delicious. Plenty of little snacks for hungry mouths. Games for playing. My wife would get a soy cappuccino in a ceramic mug every morning. I'd get a hot tea with honey, and a chai with almond milk later. Prices were reasonable compared to how much shops nowadays. Excellent shop! Highly recommended!!“

“My experience at Passione Caffè in their gorgeous two-story, well-decorated café at 91 Shattuck Square was simply marvelous. The staff was friendly, quick, and accommodating and the food, drinks, and desserts were delicious! I highly recommend Passione Caffè to those looking for a quick and yummy lunch (or breakfast/brunch everyday), to snack and study, or for an authentic Italian coffee. Don’t miss out on the great happy hour/aperativo deals between 4-7PM! It almost goes without mentioning, but Passione Caffè is absolutely true to its slogan: “A corner of Italy in Berkeley.” From the food and drink to the atmosphere and the service, this is the only truly Italian café I have found in Berkeley! And that comes from over a year of experience living and traveling in Italy! Besides the beautiful architecture and interior design of Passione Caffè—not to mention its convenient location next to Downtown Berkeley BART—I would like to point out some highlights on the menu. The pastas are all made with homemade, organic noodles and made-to-order sauces. The pasta dishes are so fresh and authentic! The spaghetti with meatballs, their only Americanized dish, is to die for! The pizzas also are also made with home-made dough and gluten-free options are offered. Try one with fresh prosciutto, mozzarella, and arugula! The fresh panini with Italian meats and cheeses round out the lunch menu. It is possible to have a filling lunch for $7-15, which is definitely reasonably priced by Berkeley standards! A serious final highlight was the artisanal gelato, made in-house by the Italian co-owner, Eleanora Cercatore. There are 12 flavors, weekly made with gluten-free options, that are displayed on a beautiful rotating wheel. The gelato is spectacularly tasty—I cannot recommend it highly enough! For your time, money, and fine Italian bites and drinks, I cannot recommend a Berkeley café more highly than Passione Caffè! Please pay them a visit soon—you won’t be disappointed!“

“Delicious cider. Tons of choices on draft you’re sure to find something you like from classic single varietal ciders to creative cider that blends fruit and flower/spice flavors.
Great cider club too. Always look forward to pickup day!“
