What a great discovery! This is located on the marina, next to the Rosie museum (which I highly recommend you checking out - admission is free). We sat outside since it was a beautiful day. They had both covered and uncovered outdoor seating available. Service was awesome, my water glass never got empty! I ordered the Daves Faves (fried chicken sandwich) which was de-licious! Nicely fried and not too dense or oily. Great flavors. I tried to be healthy and ordered the side of greens, which I felt like was a smaller portion than the fries. So I picked at my friend's fries too. At ~$15, it's not bad. Would come again! read more

Four stars for the food. 1 star for the service. I called to increase our reservation from 2 to 3 people and the guy couldn't have had less personality. Total turn off. Pretty sure he was our server too. I asked for a separate check since it makes things easier when dining with friends. He did they could split checks but not give me my own bill. What? What day and age do we live in? He said he'd see what he could do..i ended up with my own check. Yay. The place was half full at noon on a Saturday and it took forever to get mixed drinks. My food came out at least 8 minutes before my friends. We were never asked how our food was. Our busser was on top of our table because my friend speaks Spanish. Otherwise our server was absent most of the time. Beer on tap = 2 choices. Menu has great variety and was reasonably priced. The jaz burger was really tasty. It dripped down my hands. The sauce was really good and the burger had a good cook as did the bacon. Fries were a little bland and under cooked. Even if I lived nearby, I wouldn't come back unless they changed wait and host staff. They were sorely lacking. Such a shame. read more

View is great and staff are nice. Pricey and food did not meet my expectation for the hype. I ordered Maiala Tonnato and was excited, but the sandwich came dry and I could not even taste the Maiala. On the good side, I like the fries that came with it. Not as crispy as other places but surprisingly addicting. So basically, you are paying for the view. read more

So, my only reason for three stars is the seasonal menu. I had seen in so many Yelp reviews that they had shrimp and grits and it tasted fantastic. Sadly, when we visited, it was not on the menu. Maybe it's only a weekday item, or the menu is seasonal. Instead, I had Cajun shrimp pasta. It was good, but not what I was hoping to get. My husband had a burger and he liked his. We also had a piece of chocolate cake for dessert, but it was just ok. read more

Had brunch there last fall and was amazed by their quesadilla. A fitting end to a wonderful tour of the national park.

This place was such a great, unexpected surprise and what I could see might be a gem in Richmond. The views from this restaurant and area are spectacular. First, I had no idea they had businesses in the Richmond Ferry Building and that they had renovated the area so beautifully. Second, the food was tasty and fresh, offered good portions, service was fast and pleasant. My friend and I shared the pancakes, which were good. Kudos for the blueberry butter. One of the few pancakes I've ever eaten that could get away with just one small serving of syrup. The omelette was mine. I like it, I particularly liked how well diced they the filling ingredients. Only wish was that they filling would have been held together more by the cheese. It sort of freely flowed out the omelette when cut. But overall flavor was good. My friend liked the Sopas, which I also tasted. They set it up to be like an eggs Benedict, minus the hollandaise sauce. Take a date, visitors, family, whomever to enjoy the food, the view and a nice little walk around the area and get a little history lesson while you're at it! read more

I've been to Assemble several times now and I love it. It's right next to the Craneway Pavilion and directly across from the Rosie the Riveter museum. On a clear day, you get a wonderful 180 view of the Bay Area (Berkeley, Oakland, Treasure Island, San Francisco, and Marin). It's worth taking a nice stroll after having a delicious meal at Assemble. I have had both lunch and brunch at the restaurant. Everything had fresh local ingredients with some housemade items and everything was so delightful. These are the items I have had at Assemble: Assemble Breakfast - A simple breakfast that I loved so much. I got my eggs nicely poached and opted for the bacon instead of the ham. I loved their homefries because they dice the potatoes into small pieces so you get a mouthful of crispy potatoes. And the sourdough they serve with it is nicely toasted on the outside, but super soft on the inside. Fried Chicken Sandwich - Oh. My. Gosh. I loved this chicken sandwich. It's a good portion and the chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Perfectly cooked with a nice balance of heat from the pickled jalapeños. The fried basil is a fantastic touch. I need to have another one of these sandwiches very, very soon. Grilled Chicken Citrus Salad - This is a pretty salad. It's very light, but filling. There's slices of orange and blood orange, which were fresh and flavorful. I loved the dressing. Avocado Toast - Ermahgerd! I loved the avocado toast. I wasn't sure how the chia seeds and pumpkins would work with the dish, but they did! They added a nice, crunchy element to the dish. The egg was poached perfectly. The dressing on the mixed greens was so good. Smoked Salmon Salad - This is a hearty salad. This was another dish I really loved. You get a nice portion of the smoked salmon, but it's a nice balance between that and the mixed greens. Miso Roasted Eggplant - Another light, but hearty dish. There's a lot of nice flavors that compliment each other. The eggplant was nicely cooked. Shrimp Fried Rice - I've had this both with and without shrimp. One of my friends is allergic to shrimp so they made sure to not include it in the dish. It was both good with and without the shrimp! The rice wasn't too salty and the soft boiled egg was a very nice touch. Bread Pudding French Toast - Wow. This was pretty amazing. I don't think this is something I could eat by myself. It's definitely worth sharing while having a cup of coffee. It was very delectable. Orange Cardamom Creme Brulee - This was a very nice creme brulee. The orange is very subtle. The portion is a nice size, where you don't have to share if you don't want to. Actually, don't share it. Have it all to yourself! Cookie Plate - A nice assortment of cookies made in-house. There's even a potato chip one. Potato. Chip. Cookie. Get it! Chocolate Ice Cream - This ice cream was amazing!!! They make the ice cream in-house and it was the best. I loved it. Aperol Spritz - Nothing wrong with a good old fashion Aperol Spritz! They added a thick slice of blood orange, which you could really taste in the drink. I really liked this drink. Clementine Gin & Tonic - I love a good G&T and this one delivers. You could tell it's made in-house. I really recommend this drink. I really love Assemble. There wasn't anything I didn't like. The service here is fantastic as well. I highly recommend! read more

Finally made it to assemble after a few visits to the marina for walks. We both ordered burgers, and i washed mine down with a coke, and moms had some very good tasting fresh lemonade. The service was ok, but boi the burgers were delicious. The fries were good as well. Special spread and fresh vegis to top off the burger. Very yummy. read more

Service was great! Location was easy to find and parking was a breeze. The view was beautiful over looking the SF area. Food was delicious and well cooked. I had the French Toast topped with Raspberries! yummy (: definitely will be coming back to this beautiful place... and the Rosie the reverter museum is right next door read more

I've been to Assemble for brunch [prior to the Shelter-in-Place order], and it was great! The food was well-portioned and tasty! The service was good as well! I've ordered from them twice now for takeout [during the Shelter-in-Place order], and I'm still pleased with them all around! The food is just as delicious and ready in a timely manner! read more

Definitely worth it! Restaurant had steampunk decor which fits in perfectly as the site is on WWII shipyard. (The Rosie the riverter National Park was next door and there is a nice memorial for the shipyard workers right on the bay trail.) We went on a clear day and the view was amazing as you can see the San Francisco city skyline. Service: greeted and seated right away. We got drinks so quickly, that we didn't get to finish looking through menu! Food-wise: I got Dave's fave and it was so good. Chicken was lightly fried and perfect - not over cooked. The egg was a special touch that reminded me of Vietnamese sandwich at Ba Le. My mom got the spicy garlic crab. She loved the crab and the pasta. My sister got the clam chowder bread bowl. Both salad and soup were very tasty. My dad sound the bread was fresh as well. Yes they still do give mountain hardware company store passes. Tldr; - great food, great ambiance, great view. Definitely go again! read more

Visited this restaurant awhile back for lunch because it was close to "Rosie the riveter national historic sight" The food was very good especially the seafood salad. It was on the menu with as mixed seafood, but I ordered it with just shrimp. The waiter was pleasant, but we felt ignored when we first walked in perhaps because there looked like a large party was just breaking up. Our lunch with ice tea amounted to $50 for the two of us, so a little pricey. The place used to be a car assembly plant so quite unique looking and perfect for a historic waterfront location. The entire area is very nice and worth a visit if you haven't been to Richmond lately. read more

Came here for outdoor dining at the end of June. Their set up is self explanatory with the menus and reining rules clearly posted & the tables are a carefully calculated distance apart from each other. The menu is kind of limited and a little pricey but they have good food. I got a bowl of the pozole and enjoyed it. It was was way more than what I was expecting and definitely filled me up. It comes with tortilla chips, green cabbage, lime, chili sauce and jalapeños/cauliflower on the side. I tried some of their freshly baked cookies (snickerdoodle and I forgot the other one) and they had good flavor but I personally wouldn't order them for myself. Also, whoever took our walk up order was great so shout out to them. read more

Industrial style SMALL dive right next to the water. Open atmosphere and decent food. Has a bar with liquor and beer. 4 stars for the flavor of the food, but probably 3 stars for the presentation. I had a bowl of clam chowder that costs $6 for 6 oz. As you can see in the photo, it wasn't chowder like, but similar consistency to zuppa toscana type of soup. Flavor was great. The burger was $14 but came with fries. That was good too. Thick patty and cooked nicely. Overall, the vibe and food made it a good choice. They also have brunch on weekends that I have yet to try. On the plus side, it's next to the WWII museum featuring Rosie the Riveter and the women's working movement. read more

I am super impressed by this place. Came across Assemble by way of yelp, and it was pretty much as described. Food is outstanding. The view and atmosphere are great. Service is adequate. You have to search for the place, because google maps leaves you about a 5 minute walk from the actually restaurant. Just keep driving towards the Rosie the Riveter museum and you won't miss it. The chicken for the chicken and waffles was super delicious, and very kid friendly. The $15 burger was incredibly tasty. The fries were on point. The beignets were the real deal, and honestly better than the ones at Angeline's in Berkeley. The shrimp and grits were a bit of a let down for me, but my wife enjoyed them. The very mojito and the watermelon mezcal rita were tasty and made very well. I'll definitely come back and check this place out again. read more

We attended a private event at the nearby Columbia Employee Store. Afterwards we were headed over to the Rosie the Riveter WWII National Historical Park. But my brain said lunchtime first!! Where could we go as we're at the former Ford assembly plant location which is very isolated. Should I do a Yelp? As we headed over to Rosie I spotted a place to eat. Read the posted menu and decided we'll eat here as it was directly across from Rosie. Hubby went with the fried chicken tenders smothered in gravy over rice. I went with the buttermilk pancakes. Both dishes were a 3.5 rating. He had a Bloody Mary & I had a mimosa. Bill came to $60 including tax & tip. Tip: If you eat here you'll receive a Columbia employee store pass although we didn't utilize it having already shopped there earlier. read more

VERY DISAPPOINTING. My friend and I went there today at 12:30 pm. for brunch. We were seated after waiting about 10 minutes. A waitress came to acknowledge us after about another 10 minutes of being seated. She took our order - French toast for each of us, and served us water. We waited for 1 HOUR and our French toast has not arrived. I called the attention of the person who sat us. She said she was going to check on it. She returned from the kitchen and told me that they are just "plating" our order. We told her that we can not wait anymore and we left. By the way, our table top was sticky. When we picked up our water glass to drink, glass was sticking to the table. Our paper napkin bore a hole when picked up. A piece of it was stuck on the table top. read more

This probably a 4.5. I thought it was going to be super posh because there's the reservation option, but it was super chill and service was nice. Hard to find tho! Had drive around the factory building to find it. Anyway, I went with my folks do r brunch because I'm basic af. Unfortunately my mom beat me to the avo toast which she she said she liked. I got the omelet with a side of avo for obvi reasons. It was good with or without it but I learned that I'm not too much of a fan of spinach but a big fan of mushrooms. Eggs weren't too runny, the potatoes were a bit over peppered but still good.the view was also awesome (see review of Anh) which is why it's 4.5. Will definitely bring a date here if I can find one ‍. Eat well or date me trying -ant read more

I wanted to update this review because very needed changes were made and now it's our go-to spot! The wonderful team from Brezo is now sharing their culinary talents Wednesday through Sunday. Their brunch and lunches are superb. The bar staff is great and they do indeed serve stiff cocktails. On other days and in the afternoon you can find an oyster bar which is really good and BBQ which is so-so. It's worth the trip and stay for the beautiful view. It's also dog friendly! Oh, and good live music on Sundays. read more

A mixture of different restaurants under one roof. If you sit out side you have a nice view of the bay.

It's that view of the bay, can't beat it from the patio of this place. Inside is fine too, a ton of natural light because of all the windows. This place has been in the renovated Ford Plant for some time now. Menu has changed, and hours have too. This time I went for brunch. Good move, place was filing up at 11am on a Saturday. My homie got a breakfast plate. It looked fine. Nothing wowing. I got the braised pork with polenta, like having pulled pork and grits. It was not too bad. Service is a lil slow. But again, given the slim pickings in the area, nice for brunch. read more

First visit to Assemble in a long time (pre-pandemic). It is now being run by the nice couple that ran Brazos (in historic space Baltic). We both get the tri-tip sandwich, with salad instead of fries. It was tasty delicious & so generous in size that we each brought half a sandwich home to finish off tomorrow. Hopefully they will expand their menu to include a tri-tip salad for those of us trying to avoid bread, like they did at old Brazos. Restroom was clean. Only thing I'd change is turn down the music a bit. Oh, don't forget your C-19 vax card from the CDC & your mask, or you can't stay. We're happy to have them back & will be back with friends to try other menu items. read more

This place is interesting looking as it's inside a building that is historical and was a factory for ships or cars for the military. It's distinctive but not very pretty. It's dark and busy. Food was okay. We liked the eggs, sausages and bacon. The beignets were boring and over priced. A few small pieces of fried dough covered with too much powder sugar and some maple syrup for about 8 dollars. We ordered two extra eggs, one egg entree and beignets with a cup of coffee that came out to be over 30 dollars. The best thing about this restaurant is that it's near the water so you can take a romantic walk after brunch. : ) read more

I love this place for the atmosphere and consistently friendly staff. You can tell the folks behind this place care. The views of the bay are amazing! You're also just 2-3 minutes away from the Rosie the Riveter visitor center, the Columbia Sporting Goods Employee store, and the Richmond Ferry Terminal. I typically go here for brunch. The food is great, but I am disappointed they removed the chicken and waffles. read more

Consistently good food at the restaurant! I LOVE the location as well, located inside an old warehouse! I recommend just taking a few minutes to look around at the inside and outside of the building, so much machinery is still around and it's pretty cool to inspect for anyone that is interested in mechanics or the history of the area. Additionally, I've never had a bad meal here! Unfortunately, some items aren't as great as others and they tend to run out of popular items quite a bit. GET THE SOUP OF THE DAY! I can't recommend this enough! I've gotten the soup every time I've come here and it's consistently delicious!! It's never your "typical" soup either which is nice. Finally, the location of the restaurant, right on the water, just adds a little something extra to the whole experience! Great place! read more

It's always packed with people, but even so, they serve you pretty quickly. They have top-notch food, and have the best burgers I've ever had. We had the Jasper Burger (hard to go wrong), the Trout Sandwich (good flavor, but a little dry), French Toast (ok, but not many figs), and the kids pancake breakfast (no complaints!). There's a million-dollar view and it's right next to a rose-the-riveter museum! read more

Well, well, well, isn't this cute. This is quite a hidden gem (literally) this restaurant is located behind the Craneway Pavilion. As I entered I see Mad Men on the screen, and the smooth, golden voice of Frank Sinatra was wafting all around. I had Aseemble bookmarked for quite some time, and with a little time to kill it was my opportunity to partake. I took a seat at the bar, and the friendly bartender served up "The Paloma"; a cocktail with St. Germaine, grapefruit juice, other things I can't remember, and a salted rim. It was tasty and refreshing. To nosh on I decided on the homemade BBQ chips with onion dip. The chips had the perfect balance of crispness and spice, and the carmelized onions in the dip had a great flavor without being overpowering. Brunch is served on Saturday and Sunday, and the menu looked fantastic. I can't wait to go back and try an entree or brunch. read more

Love this place! Great location. Happy vibe! Basketball games. Large selection of food and drinks.

Decided to try a new place before watching a movie around the area. Did a bit of a yelp search and found this place. It's kind of located in it's own little place. When we first drove there, we found an area where some other cars were parked, but we weren't sure where this place was. We just waked around until we found it. The place is actually really big. There are some outdoor seating and the place just looked really nice. The menu is rather simple. I chose the Chicken and Waffles because it just sounded really delicious. My order didn't take too long to come out even though it was really busy. The plate was nicely organized with my piece of fried chicken, waffles, and some fruits. I liked how my fried chicken was really crispy on the outside. I loved it! Glad it wasn't soft or soggy. The waffles were really nice too, not to soft. It was a good portion. I was really full, but got too lazy to pack it home so I had to make my boyfriend help me finish it. I would defnitely be back again one day for some more brunch. I would like to try their frito pie because it looks very unique. read more

I would have loved to give this place 4 stars, but I got a bad taste in my mouth the last time I came here. The place is located on the water near the Rosie the Riveter museum. It looks trendy, & would be a fun place for a date. The crowd is mostly older. First time I was here for dinner & drinks. The drinks were awesome, then dinner just ok. I then ate here a few times for lunch. Everything was pretty good, although the price was a little high for what we got. I liked the blackened fish sandwich, fries, grilled chicken sandwich, & especially their pies. The last time was totally off. The wait, the service, & the food. I got the wedge salad... it was horrible. It tasted old. We had to ask for everything, from menus, water, & silverware to cream for the coffee (we asked for that twice). It was a busy day, but if that was my only experience here I'd probably never go back. Since I live nearby, I'd probably go again on a weekday. read more

Assemble brings such joy to my life! It sits next to the Rosie the Riveter Museum, and is right on the waterfront. I have great life memories associated with this place. Seating is always a breeze, and the food is made fresh. The chef tries different menu items here and there, and especially on holidays. I remember once trying a dish that didn't go as well as expected. The owner, who is all about making sure patrons have a pleasant experience, took our beverages off the tab and also gave us a discount for our next visit. Either way, I'd still go back. Service is everything, and it helps that the food here makes my belly smile :). If I had one wish, it'd be for them to bring back the crab for brunch!!! read more

ASSEMBLE in Point Richmond. Breakfast menu VERY limited. Coffee was watered down, food was ok, overpriced. The FRENCH TOAST is something you should steer clear of. When I asked the waitress about the dish, she said it was "good, very generous portion." When it came, there were basically 2 halved slices of basic toast topped with berries and a side of syrup...totally underwhelming. Toast was really burnt on one side, coincidentally the side that was face down. When I told the server and showed her she told me "well that's generally how we serve it. " SERIOUSLY??? OK. Everything else was ok but I'm not going back any time soon. read more

Great place for a meal if you're at the National Park. I had the sliders and a Pilsner. The food quality was good. The atmosphere felt a little bit stilted, I'm not sure why. Even though it was a very well-run concession, it felt more like a concession than a restaurant with a lot of heart. I also tried the Brussels sprouts side order, which was just okay... but I am a Brussels sprouts snob :-). The service was fine, but they seemed understaffed and so the waiter was disengaged and distracted. Not on my list for restaurant destinations. If, however, you are looking for a great way to augment a bike ride or a trip to see the park, it gets no better than this. Have fun with the eclectic menus, which seem to change from time to time, and enjoy. Nice interior and good food for a fair price. read more
