    It was good...the place is beautiful, they have a great environment. About the food, well the pizza is very small, not for to share, but that's the only thing not positive that I can say about this place

    First time here, lured by the rooftop views, which are spectacular indeed. Our food was tasty (especially recommend their Brussels sprouts and Mahi tacos), and my Pinot Noir was superb. Unfortunately, on this night at least the place was poorly managed. Our waitress, friendly and solicitous, had too many tables - some outside and others, including ours, on the other side of the restaurant. So she literally disappeared from our view for long stretches of time, included when we wanted to order more wine and then get our check. The atmosphere started out nice and lively, but as the evening went on, someone cranked up the volume of the obnoxious music, and it became impossible to hold a conversation. We won't be back.

    It was wonderful, amazing date spot. Music was a bit loud and sometimes a bit not our style but over pretty good. Service was great, very kind staff.

    Although the food is standard bar fare, the drinks and the view are exceptional and worth a visit for a panoramic view of Berkeley and the bay.
