Neighborhood bistro serving California comfort cuisine for lunch, dinner and weekend brunch.
When in the East Bay, it's lunch at 900 Grayson Restaurant. Partake of California cuisine at its best—stone soup, chunky burgers, exotic drinks and American fusion cuisine to keep you well occupied. Expect curious names on the menu, such as “Demon Lover” (spicy fried chicken, buttermilk waffle and cream gravy), and “Accessories” (a delicious vegetarian hotch-potch), which when explored, reveal tantalizing flavors. A limited, but decent beverage list makes for good pairing with any meal. While a dinner option is yet to come to the fore, the traditional breakfast can be summed up in one word—mmmmm!
Located in the heart of the chic Rockridge area, Wood Tavern is arguably one of Oakland's favorite restaurants. Saying that they have pretty good dishes is a vast understatement. The menu changes frequently but might include dishes like seared duck breast, steaks and freshly made pastas. While the restaurant tends to crowd up, especially during peak hours, an airy breeze (when weather permits) and a friendly staff help to cultivate a casual atmosphere. Equipped with a full cocktail menu and over 70 wines, you can even stop in just for an after-work drink and leave satisfied.
