Our first time eating here, nice variety of items on their Brunch menu. The Berkeley Benedict was delicious and the home fries the best I've had! Small, cubed pieces, cheese? crispy outside and potato flavor. We went back the following Sunday and tried a couple different items from the Brunch Menu, In The Wood Omelet and the Avocado Toast since they were out of the Beyond Burger patties. The "Three egg" omelet was pretty puny! I'm guessing they were Quail eggs? Avocado Toast was meager as well! I think that was our last visit:-(( Price per person $10–20 Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

A great restaurant on College Ave! If you want a filling and quality, casual meal, this is the spot. Great selection of local beer on tap, a wood fire pizza oven, tons of delicious burger options, and overall a quality menu. I had the special, the lamb burger, and the favors were delicious. The burger was a little overdone for my taste, but rather that than the opposite for lamb. Side salad was delicious too. The wood burger was also really tasty especially with the smoked Gouda. Fries were pretty good, but a little “floppy” for our taste. Definitely high quality potatoes though, so had no problem finishing them. We’ll be back for the pizza because that also looked good, and the outdoor patio area was lovely to sit outside and enjoy. The owner happened to be there and was really nice, offered to turn on the heaters as it got cooler. Amazing service here, very attentive. Also, I bet brunch here would be a great time too. The menu looked really good! Price per person $20–30 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I truly love this place. There’s plenty of parking on any side street and a lot in the back. The pizza is always delicious (they’ll crack an egg on it if you ask.) The truffle fries are some of the best fries I’ve ever tasted and the mimosas… the staff. Everyone here is just really lovely and so is the owner. I really appreciate how much effort is put into making this a nice experience for us. It shows. 10/10 will be back again and again.

Service is really warm and attentive. Great for kids, even though they don’t officially have a kids menu. Outside patio seating is comfortable and has heaters. Solid food and drinks, too! We’ll be back soon! Price per person $20–30 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes In the Wood Burger

Had a lamb burger the first time I came here. It was okay, but not worth the price. Stick to Mediterranean if you want good lamb dishes. Price per person $10–20 Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Beyond Burger and Fries

Went here on a Saturday afternoon during Berkeley graduation weekend. The atmosphere was lovely, and the background chatter was at a fun volume. People are seated both inside and outside the bar, and you have to go inside to alert a server if you wish to dine outside. The food was lovely, and they had a good selection of boozy brunch drinks as well as alcoholic ones. There were a variety of vegetarian options as well, and one vegan meal plus many vegan sides. Many meat and salmon dishes as well. The rating is 4 out of 5 stars because despite the nice food and atmosphere, the service left something to be desired. As previously stated, I went during the Berkeley graduation weekend , and it appears as though they were understaffed because the owner himself was bussing tables and seating people. However, this lack of staffing and extra customers led to a rather irksome communication breakdown. Many times we had to ask for a second bottle of water, and many times more did we have to ask for a third bottle of water, and we left quite a bit of time between the many requests. The biggest flaw was the fact that half the meal arrived, and the second half only came 15 or 20, minutes later, after we had asked the owner twice where the second half of the order was. No one came back to check on us. We had to try and alert staff who walked away from us to attend to another task. After delivering the check the waitress was apologetic and offered to get us a drink as an apology, but we were finished with the meal at that point. I don't blame the staff themselves - they were kind and courteous and overwhelmed - but I wish there had been more communication with us once the issue was raised.

Came here super hungry and was majorly disappointed. “Crispy Chicken Sandwich” was cold, soggy, and not crispy at all. Tortilla chips were stale and Spinach Artichoke dip was mostly flavorless. Table wasn’t cleaned when we sat down. They charged automatic gratuity of 20% for a “large party” of five without any prior notice so we ended up tipping extra by accident. Sure, five people at a table can be a lot for some places to handle but at least tell us beforehand about the automatic fees before taking our cards.
