Went unexpectedly for drinks and dessert at 9 p.m. on a Saturday evening. We only had to wait ~10 minutes and was accommodated near the door in an intimate corner lounge. Perfect spot to see the entire venue with swanky lighting. Great music, bar, and more loft style seating upstairs that looks out to the below. Pleasantly surprised…great decor and vibe! Service was amazing, lots of cocktails, Mocktails, wine selection and delicious desserts. This place is calling me back to try dinner!!

The drinks were innovated, Appetizers yummy and the main entree’s memorable.. We had the Lamb 2 ways and also Chicken two ways.. Both the entries were delicious. The service was excellent.Very pleasant surprise. And what’s the best part of it is in our neighborhood. We definitely will be back for more amazing food.

Excellent drinks and super friendly staff! My only critique, which is super subjective and really nitpicky, is that they could use a little soundproofing. When it’s busy in there, the chatter and noise can make it pretty hard to hear. It’s also a little pricey, not ridiculously pricey, but just a little more than it should be. Again, these are very subjective critiques and you might think otherwise. It’s 100% worth going

A great family evening of drinks and dinner! Started with fantastic cocktails in the lounge. Dinner (monkfish, duck, pork chop) were delicious up in the loft seating area. Service was professional and responsive! A new favorite in the East Bay!

10/10 ambiance, great live music (Sunday’s), delicious food and drinks, and friendly staff. I was a bit disappointed that after confirming with the restaurant that they would bring a dessert with a candle in it for the birthday girl the dessert came without it. Not a major miss, but it did put a slight damper on what was otherwise a stellar evening.

This is one of my favorite dining experiences in Oakland! EVERY SINGLE course is excellent here— apps, entrees, drinks, desserts. The whole program is thoughtful and flavorful. Food is well-seasoned, beautiful and creative. I’m not even vegan and I enjoy their seasonal vegan dish.
