• French / American • Oakland
Booked 31 times today
Butterjoint is a comfy bar and restaurant located in North Oakland. Our welcoming and eclectic atmosphere is appropriate for almost any occasion - whether it be meeting a friend for a drink, celebrating an important event, or relaxing after work. Our menu is a mixture of familiar Pittsburgh foods (think pierogies, hamburgers, French fries) and French bistro classics (beef tartare, raclette, mussels), and seasonal classics that come and go throughout the year. We put care into our vegetarian dishes too, including making our own tempeh, falafel, and veggie patties from scratch. Menu items change frequently--usually every day--and reflect many long-standing relationships we have with farms and breweries in our region. In addition to reservations, we also have a thirty seat bar that is first come, first serve. We don’t know exactly how old the bar is, but it’s at least seventy years old (probably older) and very cozy. Our friendly bartenders are here to make something you like.

    This is our second year in a row going to The Wooden Nickel for Thanksgiving dinner. It was an excellent choice once again. Our turkey meal was quite tasty. However, the real standout was the outstanding service we received from Maddie. She was genuinely warm, attentive, and efficient. Her service certainly helped make our visit an enjoyable one.

    Another beautiful restaurant by DeShantz. The salad had a delicious citrus ginger dressing and was beautifully prepared. The rolls, nigiri and sashimi were all wonderful. Outstanding items were the gyoza and yakimeshi. Would love to see more gyoza options in future offerings.

    I haven't been here in a hot minute and was surprised by the lack of a crowd. We were in and out, served quickly by a very cool server, and the value is good. Is it the best seafood in town, probably not. (Except for those biscuits, though). The twin lobster tails were good for the money, though!
