Excellent service. Generous pitcher of sangria. Guac was a little salty. Tempura avocado and chicken tacos were 🔥.
Had the lamb with broccolini. It was decently cooked and seasoned. Not a fan of the restaurant setup where one has to get up to order at the bar each time.
Nice Breezy spot sister of the Berkeley store, excellent Tapas, great service, and a nice alcohol selection oh, this place has a very open and Airy design, outdoor seating, solid wood tables and the warm inviting Ambience inside. Their special dishes are usually excellent, the chefs here are great, and parking is easy in the back. More of a new school place, this place now has some old school charm since it has survived in Oakland for decades, and is a fun place to go do for both old and young people. Make sure to try the top us and have a wine that goes with it at least once in your lifetime and this is a great place to do it in the East Bay. Super cool staff
One of the major perks is that they stay open a bit later than other businesses on Piedmont. So if you're seeing a 7:30 movie at the Piedmont theater you can have a nice dinner and drinks after. Which is perfect if you're not done with the evening. The veggie tacos and fish tacos are equally delicious and the traditional cocktails are well executed.
I visited on a Thursday evening and the gentleman behind the bar made me one of the tastiest mock tails I've ever had. Oakland has mad mock tail game.
Shrimp tacos and the matador drink are delicious! Miguel and Matt are great bartenders. I highly recommend this place.
Excellent carnitas tacos for lunch. My friend suggested meeting there for lunch, and it was well worth it. They weren't that busy, so it was the perfect place for conversation. The appetizer was a chunky, well-balanced guacamole served with what I think were homemade chips. Both were quite fresh and tasty. I ordered the carnitas tacos, and service was quick. The meat was beautifully flavored and incredibly tender, just melting in my mouth, served on street corn tortillas. This came with a side salad of fresh greens and tomatoes. Very tasty.
We love going to Bar Cesar! The people working there are always super friendly, there's never a wait, and the drinks and food are so good!
