Best Sunday Lunch Restaurants in Berkeley

Food and service were as expected. All delicious and they were supportive about modifying for Food intolerances. Thank you.

A fantastic find in Oakland near Lake Merritt. The food was excellent and the service was attentive. The tables & chairs were not very comfortable but adequate for breakfast and lunch.

Holy cow! Excellent food and service! Great quaint location. Had the steak and scallops dishes for dinner. Delicious, tasty, well-seasoned, well cooked. Opened up with the charred Brussels sprouts and beef carpaccio. Also had the little gem salad. Their bread is soft and crunchy at the same time? How’s that? The place was sold out and with a line of people waiting for their turn to sit at a table. Owners are present and working. Just a great restaurant with great dishes!

The food and cocktails at Burdell are exciting and surprising. The flavors are bold and perfectly balanced, with ingredients and styles you don’t usually find in fine dining. The service is more casual than other restaurants of its caliber, friendly and comfortable. For instance our server noticed my enthusiasm for the miso peanut sauce at the bottom of our empty bowl of boiled peanuts, and he kindly brought a little spoon so I could keep adding the delicious gravy to my plate. My husband and I adored Burdell and return soon!

This was a special occasion. My sister loves Ajanta, is from out of town and hadn’t visited in a while. We were welcomed graciously, given a table by the window and then served a wonderful meal. Truly memorable. Well done Ajanta.
