    This Berkeley restaurant is known for its meat market in the back of the restaurant, and such offerings as duck sausage, spit roasted chicken and grilled lamb, but oysters are also a specialty. Read more

    Seriously: get the hot dog from the kids menu!! It's huge, house made, comes with house made sauerkraut, and is probably the best dog of all time.

    Salad options are delicious. Shredded broccoli with chicken salad is light yet filling.

    I agree with Jeff: best meat counter, not just East Bay; more like the three north counties! Not in agreement at all with Juan!

    Do not order the Steak Frites. You will regret it if you do. Worst beef in the area.
