About this restaurant

Neighborhood gem
Great for creative cocktails
Good for special occasions

Recommended in the MICHELIN Guide for California 2021-2025. Located in Oakland’s historic Grand Lake District, Bardo is a neighborhood lounge and restaurant inspired by the comfort and camaraderie of a mid-century dinner party. Drawing on the celebration and elegance of old school entertaining, we envisioned a space for friends and neighbors to enjoy amazing food, cocktails, conversation and great music.

Our lounge is a swank living room, furnished with hand-picked finds from antique and vintage markets from Palm Springs to Portland. Our mezzanine dining room features a rotating menu of fresh, seasonal supper-fare with local and sustainably sourced meats, fish and produce. While we think the food, drinks and atmosphere are all great reasons to visit us, it’s the relationships with our friends, neighbors and guests that is the driving force behind Bardo.

Bardo keeps getting better and better. The drinks are sublime, the food delicious, the service impeccable. We had a bunch of wonderful appetizers, and a main course shared between the 3 of us and it could not have been more delicious. The warm apple cake with ice cream topped off a divine dinner and time. I love the decor of Bardo and the vibe was happening and alive last night. Thanks for a lovely time in the neighborhood!
