Die besten internationale Restaurants in Oakland

Good food, service could have been better.

We have dined around the world, Michelin stars, celebrity chefs, yadda, yadda, yadda. That said, this was the most perfect dining experience I can recall, MAYBE since an outing to Le Bernardin a decade ago - but different from that in every way. The space, the ambiance - exuding the warmth of a tavern - the quality of the directly sourced ingredients, the impeccable preparation (including PERFECT technique on some oft-challenging game meats) and most of all, the SERVICE, could not have been more perfect. Not stuffy, not pretentious - just down to earth people who know what they’re doing and what to do it with - letting the ingredients speak for themselves. Outstanding. And a special shout out to Johnny - host, waiter, bartender extraordinaire. Bravo!

Nice range of options, for non-meat eaters, vegetarians. Lovely spices and tasty main dishes. Place is quiet friendly. Top marks.
