Best Seasonal Restaurants in Emeryville

Everything was amazing. The levels of flavor, nothing over salted. The mocktails and lemonades were amazing. Great staff, friendly, attentive. Fast service and food came out in each course which was timed perfectly.

A wonderful Thanksgiving experience in. all respects! Delicious food, friendly staff, good service. Our outstanding server, Angelina, was kind and attentive to our needs. Other staff and hosts were courteous and went our of their way to help me feel important and comfortable. And all this happened in a crowded restaurant on a holiday evening! Wow!

Had an extraordinary dining experience with their 10-course meal with their fabulous wine pairing. I really appreciated the wines chosen so thoughtfully that enhanced and complimented the flavors of each dish and was happy to discover some wonderful international wines. Truly a once in a lifetime luxurious experience. Thank you Commis for making my 60th birthday celebration so memorable and special.

Acre is an amazing restaurant. It’s a rare gem where the execution across the board is outstanding. It consistently delivers excellent food in a great atmosphere with top notch service. I’ve been for a casual night with friends to an anniversary dinner and it was perfect for both- a great time with fantastic food!

You will become addicted to the creative fresh, organically-grown, sustainable delectables, all for ridiculously modest prices given the quality and presentation. While it is labeled a bar, this is some of the best eats in the Bay Area, and I am super picky, having had free access to Alice Water's cuisine for years and several chefs in the family. But the place itself is gorgeous. The architects, David Soffa and Teresa Clarke are Berkeley's counterpart to Julia Morgan. The four wood and glass panels leading to the trumpetvine patio are reminiscent of Morgan's balcony doors in her house on Haste Street, but with an added elegant flourish. The pattern of the varnished wood floors in that room is exquisite. One should note all the hanging lamps, the marvellous tile work over the bar and all the rare marble. There are surprise touches, stained glass, a future art gallery in the hall and the kind of bathroom only high end hotels offer. Roses has a few rooms and every kind of seating you could desire while making it all look complimentary and beautiful: a large red satin-like booth welcomes guests at separate tables, luxurious nooks, high tops as well as a couch area. Such a treasure. I've been taking all my friends there for special occasions and they love it. It's a new bar/food venue with more increasing entertainment that is gaining popularity fast so enjoy before the lines start spilling onto the street!
