Spinning Bones is a California rotisserie Michelin Bib Gourmand rated restaurant that specializes in roasted meats with bold flavors. The focus of the menu is slow roasted meats: poultry, pork and beef, rotating on spits over high heat, and basting in their own natural juices. The rest of the menu is comprised of shareable appetizers, vegetarian side dishes, and healthier salads with vegan dressings. The principle of the menu is straight-forward: quality products that are prepared minimally and cooked thoughtfully. Spinning Bones is a brunch and dinner spot for Alameda people by Alameda people. It is a casual neighborhood restaurant open 5 days-a-week for sit down dining, take-out, and large party catering. Spinning Bones strives to be a common area for the residents of the East Bay to come together and engage in conversation and camaraderie over great food and drink.

Recommended in the MICHELIN Guide for California 2021-2023. Located in Oakland’s historic Grand Lake District, Bardo is a neighborhood lounge and restaurant inspired by the comfort and camaraderie of a mid-century dinner party. Drawing on the celebration and elegance of old school entertaining, we envisioned a space for friends and neighbors to enjoy amazing food, cocktails, conversation and great music. Our lounge is a swank living room, furnished with hand-picked finds from antique and vintage markets from Palm Springs to Portland. Our mezzanine dining room features a rotating menu of fresh, seasonal supper-fare with local and sustainably sourced meats, fish and produce. While we think the food, drinks and atmosphere are all great reasons to visit us, it’s the relationships with our friends, neighbors and guests that is the driving force behind Bardo.

    Introduced some friends to Alley & Vine last night. I’ve been with my wife several times. Usually, we leave the kids behind but last night we were 4 adults, 3 kids. Most of our food was spectacular. The calamari didn’t do it for me and the oysters were a big miss. My friend found a large piece of plastic in her mashed potatoes. But what really offended me was the prictag for the pasta we ordered for our children. $20 for butter pasta is outrageous. I work in cultural attractions as an executive chef and our prices are HIGH but $20 for pasta is gouging. Please develop a kids menu. Even if only very limited options.

    The food and service are always excellent. Parking can be challenging since the city of Alameda messed up Clement Ave, but there is a parking lot if you can get a spot in it.
