Very nice place, it has wonderful views not only of Berkeley but also of the bay. We only were for cocktails, I chose the Citrus sweet dream and it was so good, highly recommended, but I have to mention that prices are very high. The waiter was very kind, they give you a courtesy bottle of water and when ours was empty the waiter took a new one for us, very attentive. If you want to see stunning sunsets you’ll love this place.

I went on a Saturday at 4:30, and it was so so fun!! Iloved the vibes, the fire pit was amazing and I loved seeing the views change from day to sunset to night. Such a great rooftop bar overlooking Berkeley and even can see Mount Tam in the distance!!! There is a nice inside area too if the outside is too crowded. There was a live DJ as well I noticed on the inside as I was going to the bathroom.

Mike was our waiter and he was so attentive and nice!Service was so fast and friendly. He answered our questions about what dishes/drinks to have and was so helpful!

K now on to the food & drinks. Everything was so on point!!! Brussel sprouts with chopped peanuts on them were incredible, truffle parm fries were so good and such a good portion size, smash burger and fried chicken sandwich were both so incredibly good. I would repeat that whole line up again the next time I go!!

Every drink was amazing. They make their own ginger beer, how cool is that!!! The September pineapple drink was like pineapple dole whip in drink form. Nothing was too sweet, all good ratios of everything!!

If you’re in the market for amazing 360 degree views of Berkeley and the East Bay then this is the place! Great atmosphere for sips and nibbles. Despite trying going many times, I’ve only tried a couple of appetizers and wouldn’t go for the food. I’m not a beer guy, but do enjoy a cocktail. The cocktails here are a solid rating of “good”. Not the best in the East Bay, but the views certainly make up for it.

I have never had such a horrible experience. I wanted to take my girlfriend who is from out of town to a nice place so i had a reservation to be seated outside near the fire pit but when I arrived, the hostess treated us badly. First, she told us to be seated indoors but we asked to be outside and she made a big deal about it. As we were outside looking at the reserved areas, we saw an available fire pit and asked to be seated there. She then told us that it was only for reservations and we proceeded to tell her we indeed had a reservation for outside. She then made a face and said it’s only for larger groups. No more than five minutes later, they seated a couple who asked to sit there which was the same amount of people we had in our reservation. We asked if there were any other spots to sit at and were told only the small tables yet everyone after us, even walk ins, were given the reserved seatings. When we were at the bar, the bartender had a bad attitude and rolled his eyes. A bit later, we found an available fire pit seating but the manager came over to say “i was about to close this table but whatever” and sighed and shook his head dramatically and was grabbing the materials to close our table yet he went around everyone in the surrounding area and they were told to enjoy their time while we were being rushed to leave. The manager said that the table where we sat was already closed, but we saw others in the same area, at the tables. I felt discriminated against because everyone else received the complete opposite treatment. With our given backgrounds in the restaurant and customer service industry, we treated EVERY worker with the most respect and patience yet we were given different service than others. I am latino and my girlfriend is asian so it was surprising and heartbreaking to have other people of color discriminate against us. It was truly the worst service of all the rooftop bars I’ve visited in the Bay Area. Also, when we sat down, they didn’t bring us forks and napkins until we asked for them and received it 15 minutes later. They had already served us food and everyone else who ordered food were given plates, napkins, utensils, right away as we were the only ones who had to ask for it. The only person who provided good service and gave respect was our server Mike. We told him about the incidents throughout the night and he then did everything he could to apologize for the behaviour and bad treatment from the other staff. Overall, i would NOT recommend this place.

Started off a lil rocky with the restaurant giving away our table to a bigger party without telling us. Even though we had 8 people. But overall, great food, Great host. Yuki was amazing.

Great vibes overall! Loved our server, specifically Yuki. She made sure our experience at the rooftop was amazing and that we have everything to enjoy the nice views of the bay. Definitely would recommend coming and trying it out, especially if new to the bay.

My first visit and we had THE BEST time with Isela’s good care. Her service was the icing on the cake of this beautiful setting – she really made it a special night for our girls’ outing. Can’t wait to come back.

Really nice setup, 12th floor of the Residence Inn hotel. Indoor and outdoor space. Bar and Bites. Mixed drinks were tasty. Food was so-so. It wasn’t bad, it just wasn’t special or particularly great or memorable. They could definitely do more with the space. I could see it as a great event venue, glass panes outside and views of Berkeley. Has a mixed crowd of college students and ‘older’ folks.

Five star atmosphere. Great view at night 360 degrees around Berkeley from the 12th floor! Fire pits. Bar stool level tables. Loungers. Indoor and outdoor seating. Stylish lighting.

Three stars for service. Friday night around 10pm and takes 20 minutes to get your drink after 10 minutes waiting to place the order. But super duper nice waitress though. I think it’s more that they’re understaffed; management issue.

Cool list of drinks. And they’ll smoke ‘em with flavored smoke for a neat twist that I rarely see.

Very fun place to hang out. Mood music playing but you can still hear yourselves talk.

This place was pretty disappointing– you are paying for the “view”. The cocktail we got was way overpriced for what it was, and our calamari was inedible and we had to send it back. However, our waiter was nice and understanding
