- KKarenSan Francisco Bay Area •6 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoJulia’s is a hidden gem. The building is beautiful and the restaurant is spacious and relatively quiet. You can hear the people at your table speak and this is a major plus, given most restaurants are loud and noisy. The waitress was excellent and the man who helped us pick the wine to go with our meal was above and beyond helpful. We will be back!! I highly recommend having a meal hereMore infoJulia's RestaurantPrice: Expensive• French• Berkeley•4.8

- MMarciaSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoIt was a very special Christmas Eve dinner! I first heard about this restaurant when it was reviewed in the SF Chronicle 11/3/24. It was as good as it possibly could be. The food was absolutely delicious. My daughter & I ordered the steak & frites & I asked for my frites to be very crispy & for 2 dishes of aioli to dip them in & they easily accommodated me. The steak with peppercorn sauce was tender and a perfect medium rare.More infoBon DelirePrice: Expensive• French• Financial District / Embarcadero•4.6
- KKimberlySan Francisco Bay Area •8 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoA jewel box of a restaurant in Montclair. Great ambiance; service is relaxed and attentive; beautiful craft cocktails; nice wine list and fabulous food. We were there for Christmas Eve. It was warm & cozy - with a nice holiday vibe. We both had the Waygu steak - perfectly prepared with delicious potatoes Au gratin. On a prior visit, I devoured the delicious Dip hamburger. This is one of my very favorite Bay Area restaurants. Can’t wait to return.More infoPerle Wine BarPrice: Expensive• French• Oakland•4.7
