Kelly H. • April 5, 2013Asparagus & green garlic-arugula pesto pizza is fantastic!

Brendan C. • January 21, 2018Great mezcal selection, and a nice rotating cocktail menu. Also a great spot for watching football.

Sam C. • September 2, 2014Delicious and super reasonable, very attentive staff. I imagine the only reason it's not busy yet is they've just opened. Get the ginger tea, and everything else!

Trev ✌. • August 8, 2018popped in 130 on a Wed: half sando, side salad, blood orange scone to go. lovely meal and friendly service :) plenty of seating outside. or sit inside along the counter and watch the food being made.

Kendal C. • August 14, 2018One of my favorite places in the east bay. It's a little funny to pay to play boardgames with your friends, but their selection is unbeatable and the staff is very helpful.
