Tom Lai: Their Fettuccini Alfredo is really tasty! They also have great service!
Namitta Shankar: Amazing Italian food at never seen before affordable prices-1 pasta benne, 1 spinach ravioli, 1 snapple, 1 bruschetta & 1 tiramisu all for $20. Massive portions, fab service! (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more.
Joe Cledera: You can customize your order! The food is reasonably priced, they're open late, the pasta is delicious and they have an extremely friendly staff. I will be back for sure.
Shannon: The California Special with whole wheat crust is awesome.
Byron Wilkes: Best pizza in the neighborhood!! Great, accommodating staff.
Bommy: For all mushroom fans, the mushroom pizza has a mushroom sauce and is topped with 4 types of mushrooms! Slices are big and they also take half pizza orders. We got 1.5 pizzas for 4 hungry people.

Brian Strauss: From that same owner that brought us Desco in Oakland before they lost their lease. Similar modern Italian fare. Beautiful space. I liked the pork sugo with spinach fettuccine very much.
Nabeel Hyatt: Great ambiance, perfect for dinner before movie at Elmwood theatre or walking up to Berkeley football.
Maggie Azary: this place is ACTIVELY not good. I wanted it to be a neighborhood spot, but it fell so far from its potential unfortunately.

Sandy Chiao: Ribeye, roasted chicken, fish. All good!
alexis milana: Crispy. Pork. Belly. You need know nothing more.
Michelin Travel & Lifestyle: Grab a seat at the concrete chef’s counter if you are a fan of close up cooking and how butter is supposed to be used; over, and over, and over again. - Inspector
Jaymoola: Try the sunrise skillet...its a good breakfast choice
Alan H: Not amazing, but very decent and reasonably priced. You can’t go wrong with curly fries. The pancakes are filling and tasty. I also had the French dip sandwich, which was okay; the bread seemed wrong.
Leilani Wand: No it was not good. I had the California tuna it was dry on the edges and probably not fresh. Made me ill. Hours later I threw up and I am still on the throne as of now. I shall never go back.
