Best Organic Food Restaurants in Orinda

The chef beautifully presented each tasty item that we ordered. The setting in Julia Morgan's historic Berkeley City Club is magnificent. We easily enjoyed our conversations during a leisurely lunch. Thanks so much to all the staff and to our waitress Maria in particular.

Your prototypical neighborhood restaurant and bar that’s achieved something of a landmark status over the years (thus, attracting patrons and actual tourists from greater distances) for serving hearty meals, providing warm attentive service (by waitstaff, some of who have decades of tenure) and by offering a level of conviviality, bonhomie and ambience that makes you feel as if you’re dining with family and friends. Please forgive the evident bias in my review. I’ve been a proud “member” of The Casa (as it’s known by we locals) Family since 1971.

I went to Millennium with 2 friends to celebrate my birthday. It had been many years since I last ate there and my memory was that the food was less than average. I decided to give it another chance after I read that the restaurant had Michelin recognition. I'm so pleased that I did. The food was excellent and very interesting. We shared 3 appetizers and 1 main dish along with 1 dessert and a glass of wine. The wait staff was attentive and pleasant. The ambience was warm but the noise level was rather loud for 3 "older" women who wanted to talk to each other rather than scream at each other. Really that was my only complaint. I would definitely go back again.

Service is outstanding as well as the Branzino with vegetables. Waiter was friendly, courteous and quick on checking with us. Little waiting time to receive the meal. Ambience is intimate.

We had a delicious meal in a beautiful restaurant with great service.
