Alameda​の地元の良店

My wife and I are long time Yoshi dinner and concert fans, especially when Boney James comes to town. We first say him and his group perform at Yoshi’s in San Francisco many years. Since then, we always attend his Oakland Yoshi’s performances and it’s always a great dinner and show. So for 2024, thanks once again Yoshi’s for another great dinner and show. And we’re looking forward to many other great dinners and other great artist’s shows in 2025. Sincerely yours, Brian and Linda Rozier- Stephens

I went to Bardo Lounge & Supper Club on 27th December with my family. There were 5 of us. We were not celebrating any occasion. In one simple word, our impression was that the food was outstanding! Starting from the first course, the Pickled Seasonal Veg, Apple & Parsnip soup, the Fall Salad and the main entre, we devoured the food. Four out of five of us had the 6 oz, Bardo Burger, which was delicious. Incidentally, we noticed only one dish based on fish, with hardly any sea food in the menu! The service was good! All in all, this was a restaurant where we will go again and again with friends and family!

"And there it was, mountains of duck. And not fatty duck either, but juicy tender breasts of duck." -Elaine Benes, Seinfeld da Scene: Gotta give some love to the neighborhood joints. The everyday spots get overlooked sometimes... consistently good, with little twists thrown in. Whenever in the Glenview, ya gotta stop in. Me and my girls, Friday night AND the college kiddo picks up the bill?! It's a WIN!! da Grub: pro tip - book 5:45 on weekdays and you can squeeze in a Happy Hour order before dinner. We did the fried Meatballs, salmon Cannoli, and duck liver Pate with some white wine and a Negroni. Strong offerings, you can do some damage if you do the whole hour. LOVED all 3... but the pate is exquisitely decadent. Dinner was 2 orders of Casoncelli stuffed with rabbit, Gnocchi Cipollini, and the Duck confi. all went well w/ a Tuscan red. Where the Casoncelli and Gnocchi bites were delicate & light, the Duck over the black risotto was hearty & rich plus you get both breast & thigh to enjoy. Dessert? Yes please! Not an after-thought here, prepared with as much effort as the mains. Chocolate Souffle Tangerine Panna Cotta, and the Olive Oil/Squash Torta were perfect endings. I rarely get espresso out since I pull a great shot @ home, but they can work the $2000 espresso machine too! I asked for a short espresso, and got a deep, almost syrupy shot and perfect crema... had to get a 2nd one! da Service: Thoughtful servers, attention to detail and precision execution. You can hear the orders being expedited, I fully expected to hear "Yes Chef!!" Dishes timed correctly, never felt rushed, elevated but not pretentious. On the way out the gent in the Chef Whites asked if everything was good and if the espresso was to my liking, apparently he likes his the same way. RUN, don't walk to join them for either a happy hour bite or a lingering dinner, you won't be disappointed!

As always - Trabocco is great for frequent visitors as well as newbies. Every meal we have had there is great!! When we have guests in from out of town - Trabocco is our Go-To place!!

We were back to Commis after 8 years and it did not disappoint! Great, state of art food! We will definitely be back again, hopefully sooner!
