Best Restaurants for Groups in Berkeley

Always a delicious meal at Bocanova. Enjoyed shrimp and mango cerviche, Mexican salad and outstanding scallops in a light curry sauce.

You will become addicted to the creative fresh, organically-grown, sustainable delectables, all for ridiculously modest prices given the quality and presentation. While it is labeled a bar, this is some of the best eats in the Bay Area, and I am super picky, having had free access to Alice Water's cuisine for years and several chefs in the family. But the place itself is gorgeous. The architects, David Soffa and Teresa Clarke are Berkeley's counterpart to Julia Morgan. The four wood and glass panels leading to the trumpetvine patio are reminiscent of Morgan's balcony doors in her house on Haste Street, but with an added elegant flourish. The pattern of the varnished wood floors in that room is exquisite. One should note all the hanging lamps, the marvellous tile work over the bar and all the rare marble. There are surprise touches, stained glass, a future art gallery in the hall and the kind of bathroom only high end hotels offer. Roses has a few rooms and every kind of seating you could desire while making it all look complimentary and beautiful: a large red satin-like booth welcomes guests at separate tables, luxurious nooks, high tops as well as a couch area. Such a treasure. I've been taking all my friends there for special occasions and they love it. It's a new bar/food venue with more increasing entertainment that is gaining popularity fast so enjoy before the lines start spilling onto the street!

The food, drinks, and service were excellent. We have always enjoyed Agrodolce

Pleasantly surprised by the Tikka Maddala soup or dip the garlic naan. It was the perfect combination! Service was excellent!
