The service was really great. We loved the ambiance. Several of us mistakenly thought it was a Black owned restaurant because the vibe was so good… and then we tasted the food and knew it wasn’t Black people responsible for it.
The food. None of us were impressed. One woman got fish that tasted old. Another woman got an onion soup that tasted very different from the last time she visited, which was pre-remodel. Two of the women got the watermelon & feta salad; several of us tasted and we all immediately said “old/spoiled watermelon.” Two of us ordered a pizza that had off-tasting sausage. (The menu looks good. The concept of many dishes was great; the execution was not.) I can’t tell if the chef is the problem or if the owners are forcing them to purchase low quality produce & food to cut costs, but they will not survive serving plates like that, especially at those prices. One woman did enjoy her margherita pizza (but she was also eating her first meal of the day at dinner, so she may have just been hungry).
Most of the party enjoyed their drinks although some thought they were too sweet and one woman could taste the sweet & sour mix they used for the margaritas. The butterscotch pudding is overly sweet, but the sea salt saved it & I was happy with it overall. I also enjoyed the calamari, although the portion size was not great.
Our conclusion was that - given the live jazz on Friday nights - this might be a place for drinks & appetizers before going to do something else… but not for us. We...

Lousy food and TERRIBLE service.
Went on a Monday night, the restaurant was NOT busy at all. Indoor and outdoor seating was available. I sat indoors (nice ambience) along with 4 other people scattered about the restaurant. What staff passed by several times and never acknowledged me or my date. 20min in we were brought water. When I asked for ice and lemon wedges, the waiter looked as if I asked him to reveal who killed Kennedy 😳 😑 I received the ice about another 20min later, the lemons were never provided.
Literally 15-20min passed and we were asked "what do u want to eat?"
Food came out close to 30min after ordering ( medium rare flank steak and fish tacos)
My dates food came out first, mine arrived about 15min later. Our cutlery arrived 10min AFTER my food. No napkins were provided. When we requested more cocktails, I never received mine, his drinks arrived 20min after ordering...... EVEN THOUGH THE BARTENDER WAS ABOUT 10 FEET AWAY AND DOING NOTHING!!!!
At the end of the meal the water literally SLAMMED down the check without a single word and walked off.
Please be aware we were NEVER once discourteous to our server in ANY capacity (despite his blatant rudeness and disregard for our minimal request)
THE FOOD:
Steak was so so (didn't seem overly fresh )
Tacos were HORRIBLE, tasty super weird and fishy.
Stay aware...... YOU'VE...

The ambience at this place is remarkable. They did a great job with their renovation first time here since the rebuilt.. The place has fire pits in the front parking lot in the back. They have a wine bar in the front of full bar in the back, which is very dimly lit with candles on the tables, beautiful bar, very cozy, clean and comfortable. The decor is beautiful the table settings, the paint on the wall had a lot of character. The staff was very friendly. We had happy hour. I had a champagne with a cherry, which was 8$ had a pizza on a board like a flatbread 9$ Great price That’s the happy hour price between 3 PM and 6 PM ordered a French onion soup. It was very good. My Husband had a burger and fries. The burger could’ve been larger, you have to pay five dollars extra for friesbut it was tasty it didn’t fill My Husband stomach He said it was too small. I like more cheese on my pizza. The service was excellent you have so many different rooms you can attend. The bathrooms are beautiful and clean. Location is great. The restaurant sits on a little island . With them closing a lot of landmarks like Chevy’s, Hs Lord ships Emeryville needed something to add to the neighborhood and I think this place is it.. to the owner well done
Btw Great selection of...
