Restaurants near Gilman Hall

Superb food, great service, comfortable seating, prices moderate considering the cost of everything these days, a bit noisy, but overall—what's not to like?

The setting is unique and unparalleled in the East Bay - Julia Morgan's 'Little Castle'!

The restaurant is very charming. The stuff is super Helpful and friendly. All the items from the menu was delicious. If i had to complain about something it would be the olive oil on the chocolate cake. I will go back many times and encourage you to go too.

Via del Corso has become a favorite spot of ours over the past few years; first as we visited Berkeley, and now as we’ve become residents. One of our top choices when hosting out of town guests. The restaurant delivers a consistent dining experience with a menu reflecting the freshest of ingredients available. You will always find reliable standbys, such as Mary’s Chicken Breast, on the menu. In addition, a fine selection of house-made pastas, meat and fish entrees; not to mention vegetarian options. As we often do, my wife and I sat at the chef’s counter, allowing us to observe the meal preparation. Tonight we went with the swordfish entree, which was excellent. We never hesitate to quiz our server about their recommendations; they tend to be spot-on. It is refreshing to find a restaurant that has earned a reputation for treating their staff well; obvious by the very low turnover amongst the chefs and servers. We’ll return again and again!

The service was fantastic! Unfortunately the place was very very noisy And we strained to hear each other talk. They tell me that new management is coming in and we very much hope they will put in carpets and acoustical tile so that we can enjoy this place much more.
