Best Restaurants for Groups in Berkeley

The service is exceptional. I would have given it five stars, but the flickering lighting detracted from the experience. BBQ Shrimp was like you were in New Orleans, so Yummy. The black cod was amazing. The greens had the right amount of vinegar to heat and were very flavorful. My cousin and I had never tried goose, so we ordered it. While it was good, it was our least favorite. However, the pot pie that came with it was excellent. The cocktails and wine were great. I would go back again.

Acre never disappoints. This was no exception. There was a delay in the kitchen and food was taking longer than usual to come out. We barely noticed because we were with old friends catching up. But the manager came out and apologized and brought us a free appetizer and comped another round of drinks, so we were all good!

The food, service and experience was simply excellent from start to finish. We had such a lovely time on Xmas eve. The crab pasta was fantastic as was the pork chop. Our dessert (the flour-less chocolate cake) was the perfect culmination of tastes. There is a reason that this restaurant continues to impress year after year.

They open a back room on Friday and Saturday and it was quiet! Our server was prompt at figuring out our needs. The food was excellent and the coffee surprisingly good.

A great pre-theater option for light bites, sandwiches, and salads. Outside seating is nice mid- afternoon and service was wonderful.
