The booths with soft pillows made it extra comfortable, and multiple staff members greeted us right away and made sure we felt taken care of throughout our visit. We decided to try the bottomless mimosas, and even though we're from out of state where they're usually cheaper, we normally don't get them but it was 100% worth it. We were a little hesitant at first, but we're so glad we went for it--the flavors were amazing and kept coming at a great pace. The food really impressed us too. Everything came out hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The Korean spicy syrup was a standout--so unique and absolutely delicious. (Spicy pork bowl & waffle and Korean kfc was amazing!!! Portions were generous for the price, which made the whole experience feel like a great value. Overall, we were really impressed. Great service from all employees!! great food, and a super comfortable vibe. This is definitely going to be our go-to breakfast spot from now on!

We put ourselves on the waitlist and the wait was about 30-40mins. I've gotten the Ube latte, and it was pretty yummy but I could barely taste the ube. We waited about 25mins for our food to come out but it was fresh and hot when we've gotten it. It was super yummy! I liked my scrambled bulgogi. It came with potatoes and a slice of toast. Overall I finished my plate! We ordered: Side of Mixed fruits Bulgogi scrambled Tornado Bulgogi Omurice Dirty Ube Latte Hot chocolate (not pictured) The place was really pretty but by the host stand it was very tight. Better to wait outside for your table!

Swan's Market has been a staple in Old Oakland for a long time!!!…read more I used to come here long before my Yelp days quite often. There used to be live music here sometimes (I think there still is, sometimes) and the market has small restaurants and even a place to buy uncooked food, Parking in Old Oakland can be a challenge depending on when you come, But this place has indoor and outdoor seating available, and the vibe here is very Oakland!!

If you need somewhere to go, not sure what you want to eat and want options then come to Swans. Most of the eateries are consistent, but a few of them change every few years. All the food is good and they take pride in quality & presentation. Whether you want something sweet, savory, rich or whatever you can find it here. There is indoor/outdoor seating & too many choices not to make this a place to visit.

They make very flavorful veggie and…read moremeat items~! :) Today I had a steak drizzled in a bomb herb sauce, baked beans, mixed veggies, and minestrone soup with tazo passion tea. Last week, I had mashed sweet potatoes (SOOO GOOD), veggies, chili, and herb-crusted baked chicken. Lots of grab & go items as well for those of you in a hurry. :P Since this place only caters to mainly visitors of the hospital and staff members, I would say that the dining area is big enough to fit those who are eating at the bistro. It's never too crowded and I've been here at its peak lunch hour: 12 PM. This place is pretty awesome for hospital food! :)

Awesome beer selection (beware flat beers since they have enough variety that some kegs have time to go flat). The downside...the service is horrendous. From the time we sat down to the time we had drinks in front of us was 40 minutes. We had to ask the manager where our drinks were. To even place our order took just under 20 minutes. They were NOT crowded and there were two bartenders. One waitress was arguing with the host, then a busser, then another waitress. Sadly, that's it for us. We won't be back.

Second time trying to write this review since the algorithm won't allow it to post with degrading…read morecomments about our beloved governor and his hand in destroying restaurants during the unnecessary "the vid" hysteria. Dropped in here while my car was getting worked on.  Not sure why the less than stellar reviews 'cause I thought it was great. Also for a restaurant to be open this long is an achievement especially after what occured needlessly. I had the Spinach and Artichoke Frittata on a bed of potatoes and greens off of the Spring Specials menu. In my opinion this needs to be on the daily menu. I love a good fritatta and this was probably the best I can remember as far back as I can recall. It was packed with spinach and artichokes and just enough egg and cheeses to hold the whole thing together. Very filling. The dried tomato pesto on top was a very nice touch. Coffee was great and service perfect. Even though there is a  self serve coffee and water refill station staff continually came by to fill coffee and water and just check on me. They also have beer and wine and for the ladies....Momos!!!!! There is a parklet on Dwight as well as seating against the building. Next time I need to wait for my car or find myself hungry in Berkeley I'm coming here. And great music. Side note: Originally opened in 1979 and sold to Collin in 2011 who used to be a customer growing up in the area and actually worked here before owning it and still runs daily operations. So the story goes.

The donut dish had a nice texture and a fresh seafood flavor. The mushroom cappuccino had purple powder which was aesthetically fascinating and the soup was full of umami. The tasting menu itself started with the crudo, which had a sweetness from the guava broth and a spicy kick from the onion and curry oil. The lovely balance of flavors and textures continued in the Caesar dish with crunchy leaves and the ikura bursting (literally) with deliciousness. The pork belly was hearty and comforting, with a plum sauce and plantains which paired well with the carignane. The smore was a fun spin on a classic sweet snack with a gooey marshmallow. Overall I had fun looking at and tasting the food here. I'd like to come back to try the fish, it smelled so good.
