Halibut
Eowyn K.

The Beverly is beautiful, but the food and service still need some work. The decor is lovely, but not pretentious. The right lighting, music, and noise levels. The interior is fairly large, and the tables are reasonably spaced. The menu is short, and appears to change often. It does seem to have some identity confusion. Half of the plates are upscale comfort food, burgers, mac and cheese, and half is high end seafood. I thought the wine list and cocktails were better curated. The meal was inconsistent. We started with the beet salad, which was very good, but the ingredient ratio was off and it did feel like a plate of beets. We liked the side of mac and cheese, and it was a good portion. The halibut was fine, it was cooked correctly, but overall it was a bit bland. My friend had the grilled shrimp, and shrimp I tried was probably the best of the meal. I could not eat the rest as it was in a red pepper sauce, and I'm allergic. The Beverly manages to hit all of my annoyances with a high end restaurant. The first being listing some of the ingredients, but leaving off major components. (If the sauce is made of red paper, and you are listing ingredients it should be included, are you being charged per letter to print the menu?) The menu is à la carte, which means they charge full price for a main and you have to separately pay for sides. (A $17 burger comes as only the burger, want fries? That's an extra $9). Their veggie sides are also at a high price point. My last annoyance is having to beg for the bill. The service was not impressive and very slow. It took too long for everything, including drinks, except the salad, and we waited, and waited for the bill. As a side note to patrons, this is not a restaurant that is young child friendly, your toddler probably will not enjoy it. The Beverly is still quite new, I would be willing to return after they've had some time to work out the service.

Burger
Stacia G.

Went on a Sunday night, took a moment to get a table cleared and it was worth it. Didnt have the oysters so got the bread and the cheese plate. It was so yummy. Giardinaro butter? Yes please!!! Tasty cheese offerings!! Again, yes chef! Had the "cracked rice" and shrimp, it was delivered as the shrimp and grits- still excellent, even with the name change. My companion had the burger, let's just say he devoured it. Pleasant atmosphere, not a lot of parking. A bit pinky up and not in an overly pretentious way. Had a great waiter and it was his last shift before going downtown to Mad Nice to be their sommelier - he did have an excellent pairing for my shrimp dish! Will definitely come back.

Beef hash
Katerina L.

Met with friends for a birthday brunch and absolutely loved my food! Wait staff was friendly and didn't mind splitting the bill for all the girls. Mushroom toast is amazing! Large size fresh mushrooms, whipped feta spread, egg on top... yes please!! My friends had meat hash and, judging by empty plates afterwards, it was very good.

The atmosphere here is absolutely beautiful, and the service was a standout. Even though they were crazy busy, our bartender was phenomenal incredibly kind and always checking on us. As for the food, the burger was fantastic and the s'mores dessert was a major highlight! The chicken wasn't quite our favorite, though, as it was a bit lacking in flavor but a great experience.

Fried chicken and biscuits
Nick C.

We went for brunch to celebrate a birthday and they miss the mark on a few things. There were 6 of us and it took an extremely long time to get our drinks. Also I did not enjoy their spin on a bloody mary it was watery and not very big. Our service was ok but not a very personable experience. It is nicely decorated inside, I love the mosaic tiles. To eat, I decided to try the chicken and biscuits with a spicy syrup. The chicken was perfectly crispy but the biscuits were not so great. I have had better from a box, they were just bland. The syrup was very good with the chicken with a sweet heat combination. The sourdough waffle was also kind of bland and boring. We also had to ask for syrup which I think it should be served with it and not something we have to request. The burger did look very good for what that's worth.

Rhubarb shortcake

Packed and requires reservation. Service was good but sometimes slow. Bar was overwhelmed and manager comped our drinks as they did not arrive until we were halfway done with entrees. Food was excellent and staff were friendly. We will definitely be back.

Pork chop was fabulous
Grace D.

First time visiting and it did not disappoint. The food is 10/10!! Parking meh, but whatever, I'd walk a mile for this place. The service was fabulous. Okay, portions are very good and price is on point. The Roasted Pork Chop was delicious!! Probably my fav of the entire night. The salad loaded w/pistachios, strawberries and asparagus better than expected. My hubby thought the dressing was a little too much vinegar, I wanted to drink that dressing. The smoked chicken wings are finger lickin' good. I normally don't eat chicken wings out, but oh my word these are worth getting a little dirty at dinner. Excited to try some of their daily specials.

Beverage menu

Tip #1- make a reservation! It was so incredibly busy on a Thursday night. Every seat was full at the bar for walk ins. We did have a 730pm reso and arrived at 710pm. Luckily we were sat at 720pm because we were quite hungry. Tip #2- it is very loud in here. It was quite difficult to hear anything our server said so if you are hearing impaired it may be better to choose a less "prime" time to go. The Beverly would benefit from some sound dampening. Appetizers- We ordered the bread board, golden beets and smoked chicken wings. Bread board- deliciously crusty focaccia with a giardiniera butter. This was a good bread, but not too memorable. Golden beets- a must order if you love beets and a really good way to try a beet if you don't! Absolutely delicious. I'd go back a thousand times for this. Smoked chicken wings- my husband said these were the best dry rub chicken wings he has ever had (I argue they are tied #1 with the dry rub wings at OWL). A must. *** Side note- we were incorrectly given the heirloom carrots. We immediately let the server know we ordered the beets not the carrots and she left these at the table. We did try one each and they were quite bland. A bit disappointing that it was kept on our bill considering we did not order this. Every time a dish has been incorrectly placed at our table before, it is comped as it was not part of the order. Could have been overlooked as they were busy, but still disappointing. We did not bother asking her about this when we received the bill so the fault is on us as well. Entrees- Lamb saddle chop- the beans!! So huge and so delicious. It was cooked perfectly medium rare and on the bone so a lot of flavor. Pigalle burger- when we ordered the server asked if we wanted a single or double patty so I asked if it was a smash burger and she said yes so we ordered a double. It is NOT a smash burger. The burger patty was ~1/2" so this ended up being a very large burger. I would've preferred a single but order a double if you have a large appetite! This burger was AMAZING. So much flavor and just perfectly made.

Passionfruit chocolate sorbet
Darya G.

Great new addition in Berkley, located right across from the library. The parking is limited, but street parking is free. Inside the decor is clean with whites and blues. Gives the vibe of a summer cottage. The tables are a bit too close as the space is not large. We were seated in a corner window booth and the abundant light at sunset was lovely. Our server came over right away and was friendly and happy to answer questions. She was attentive and came back regularlyto check that everythingwas ok. Overall I'm happy with the service we received. The food menu is one page, not a large variety of dishes. My friends and I ordered a Pigalle Burger each, and a few sides to share. All the food was beautifully plated and presented. The burgers were delicious, juicy and flavorful. The grilled mushrooms over a chickpea base were quite good with an earthy slightly sweet flavor. The carrots were just ok, but the sauce that they came with, combination of a white sauce and chili sauce, saved the dish. The beets were bland for my taste. For dessert we tried the olive oil cake served with whipped ricotta and orange jam and the passionfruit chocolate sorbet. Both desserts were flavorful in the best way. The cake was sweet but the ricotta and tangy orange balanced it out. The combination of passionfruit and chocolate was as surprising as it sounds but it works. It's on the sour side and refreshing. The Beverly is a great addition to this little neighborhood!

Made it into The Beverly during its first official night open, and was very impressed by how well-run the place is despite being so new. The staff was friendly and helpful, and though at times it took a bit for them to come back, it wasn't excessive and was better-than-expected for the first official night open. Food was very good. I split the Pigalle Burger (delicious, just as it is at Bar Pigalle), crudo, fries, and some deconstructed chicken pot pie (forgot the name of the dish) and all were yummy. Cocktails were good, though I wouldn't say great. My slight nitpick is the wine was being stored and served too warm (we ordered a bottle that they just grabbed from a shelf in the dining room), but to their credit, one of their staff members (Ivan) brought us a chiller, which made the wine taste much better later. All in, a very welcome addition to the upscale casual dining scene in the area, and I'll definitely be back!

1/2 Fried Chicken with house pickles and cheddar biscuits.
Kim D.

4.5 stars! I finally got to try The Beverly in Berkley yesterday. On Wednesday nights they have a 1/2 fried chicken dinner special. OMG, I think this is the best fried chicken I have ever had! Even when I was full, I couldn't stop picking at the chicken and or the skin because it was so good! What I had... Drink: Teacher's Pet: Lunazul Blanco, Madarin Napolean, Lemon, Spiced Apple Tea Delicious! Not overly sweet, although I love sweet drinks. Main: 1/2 Fried Chicken with house pickles and cheddar biscuits. The biscuits were the only part of the meal that I didn't absolutely love and I think it's because they were served cold. When I eat cheddar biscuits (and I think we all know where I'm usually eating them), they're served warm. I wanted these to be more like that I guess? I ended up bringing them home so I can warm them up to see if I'm right. I don't know what the sauce was made of, but it was both sweet and spicy and I absolutely loved it! Side: Smashed Potato: charred onion relish & mustard. I think I was expecting more of a mashed potato, but these were roasted, smashed potatoes. They were still excellent! Nice and crispy on the outside and soft in the middle. Perfect. Dessert: S'Mores: dark chocolate cremeux, graham tuile, and toasted meringue. VERY sweet, which I normally love, but a hair too sweet even for me. I think if the tuile had not also been sweet, it would have helped. None of that stopped me from eating the whole thing!

Mushrooms appetizer
Irina G.

Beverly is a modestly set restaurant that, from the outside, doesn't catch your eye--just a simple exterior. Inside, the vibe is also pretty plain--nothing really stands out. However, the food was a pleasant surprise. The burgers, in particular, stole the show--juicy and flavorful, a real highlight. We started with a few appetizers: the mushrooms were absolutely excellent, while the carrots were just okay, and the beet appetizer fell in the middle--mediocre, at best. For dessert, we had the ricotta olive oil cake, which I found a touch too sweet, though my friends loved it. The passion fruit chocolate sorbet, though, was a standout--bringing a tangy twist to chocolate. Overall, Beverly was above average. I'd come back, though I do hope the service improves--our server was pleasant, but she was slow to bring items, forgot our lemon, and only checked in with us few times at the very end.

I got the "burnt orange espresso tonic" and a "rosemary biscuit". Both were amazing. The biscuit was warm and buttery and the included jam (which appeared house made) was the perfect compliment. The flavors were all distinct but complimentary and made this into a spectacular treat. The espresso tonic is the best I've had. The flavor was fresh, light and fruity, with the bitterness of the coffee keeping it grounded and sophisticated. I even ate the orange slice at the end. The wait for my drink was probably about 7-10 minutes but knowing that in the future, I'm willing to plan around if the product is going to be this good. I want to come back and try the food but I will make it a point to return the next time I'm on this side of town.

Thankfully, the hostess told us about their basement bar area where you can grab drinks and snacks while waiting. The downstairs area had such a cool speakeasy vibe dark ambiance, vinyl music playing, and honestly the perfect date night atmosphere. The drinks were REALLY good, and you can also order appetizers down there. Once we made it upstairs, we grabbed bar seating and talked to a few people around us who all said this was their favorite spot. Our bartender was amazing -- super attentive, explained the menu well, and gave great recommendations. We ordered the wings (perfectly seasoned and so good) and the chicken sandwich with buffalo added for a little spice... absolutely delicious. I also tried the pistachio martini, and wow definitely one of my favorite drinks I've had in a while. Overall, such a great experience from the atmosphere to the food and service.

As we followed our greeter to our table I kept screaming in my mind "no no no no no not that table no!" and she sat us at a table in full blasting sun. Nevermind the fact that there was a whole shaded section in the back part of the patio area. The rest of my group said it was fine and a beam of sun slowly bore a hole through my chest. Drink orders were up. I ordered a fabulous cross between a Moscow Mule and a Mojito. A+++ for the drinks. Mine was loaded with fresh mint from their garden. Same grade for our waitress who explained the drinks in detail and ended with "ugh- are you sure you want to sit at this table straight in the sun?" The other two said it was fine. I was ready to move, but was out voted. She continued to check in regularly and brought extra water. Most items on the menu were hot. I considered the fish, but we all landed on appetizers and we would just bounce from place to place for bites and drinks. We ordered the charcuterie board and the lavender lemon whip with bread and cucumbers for the 3 of us. The charcuterie board was the large version and had minimal offerings. It wasn't full and pretty. It was little piles of each thing on a board. This one definitely wasn't making it into Better Homes and Gardens magazine. There was a little pile of mixed nuts, a little pile of lose green grapes, a little pile of lose red grapes - not all grapes pristine or large and none were on the vine. There were 3 little piles of cubed cheese and 2 types of sliced sausage and sliced pepperoni. There were 8 crackers that were wheat thin size. This matters because we had some onion jam on the board and a nice serving of mustard. There really wasn't anything to put them on except for the 8 little crackers. That part was weird. These weren't elevated offerings. I could have picked up any of these at Walmart. They were not elevated quality either. We also got a lavender lemon infused whip which was their answer to tzatziki sauce. It was excellent but again, we were given so much of the sauce without a bunch to put it on. The cucumbers were sliced lengthways and there was a lovely bread that tasted like sourdough. There was 6 pieces of bread, and these were not particularly large pieces. A lot more would have been needed to use all of the sauce they gave. The proportions were off. All together the bill was over $100 for the 3 drinks and appetizers. If I ever did go back I won't order food based on what I experienced. There are too many other great options within walking distance.

It was a lovely experience and the food was for the most part very delicious. Service was friendly and good but a tad on the slow side (not our server's fault, they seemed pretty busy and I think she may have been the only waitress working, so she was absolutely juggling a ton). They were out of the "pretty potatoes" which was disappointing because they sounded super delicious. The restaurant is a little dark and when very busy can get a little loud. The three women at the table next to us were having a very loud conversation (of which I picked up every word) and I could barely hear my fiancé, which I didn't love, so the acoustics are a bit odd. That being said, the decor and vibe is very home-y and everyone that works there was very pleasant and lovely, from the hostess to the man that refilled our waters. We got the charcuterie plate (selected two cheeses and two meats; comes accompanied by fig jam, mustard, sardinian crackers, and cornichons), the caesar salad, the short rib, the arctic char, and the olive oil cake for dessert. All of the food was really exceptional and delicious except I found the short rib to be a tad dry. We each ordered a cocktail, I got a spritzer and my fiancé got a seasonal Pimm's cup-type cocktail that used house-made cranberry syrup. They can accommodate gluten free diets easily which is also a plus. Overall, we will absolutely be coming back!I want to try that Wagyu Pastrami Reuben!
