    Had an 8pm reservation. We were greeted promptly and seated. Walking through the restaurant/bar it was busy and lively. The rooftop which is where we wanted to be seated was quiet but I was ok with that. The view is mid and like any evening in the bay chilly. We had cocktails (Jalisco 75) and a couple appetizers (fried Brussel sprouts and the plantains). Everything was great. Didn’t order much food only because wasn’t really what I was in the mood for. I’d definitely go back to lounge and have cocktails with friends.

    We thoroughly enjoyed the experience! In addition, our server was cognizant of the fact that we might be attending a performance and asked in advance if that was as the case. We had a well paced, delicious meal and made it to the Berkeley Rep Theater with zero stress. Well done and appreciated!
