A large selection of wines, cocktails and beers make MUA a great spot for an evening out with friends. Family owned and run Mua was one of the first restaurants to open in what was then Auto Row in Oakland, in 2008. After their first 2 restaurants, Pastoral in Berkeley (first opened in 1982 while still students, 37 in the architecture program at Cal and San-Ju painting at SFAI) then later Soizic (Jack London Square, 1996), they wanted to shift gears from heavily curated menus to more comfort-based fare catering more to the eclectic and artistic community in Oakland. Today you’ll find people of all ages and backgrounds, from Too Short to Jerry Brown.

First time at this restaurant and really enjoyed it. Welcoming staff, knowledgable server, collaborative team kept our table tidy in between courses. Food was great, we had drunken noodles, lobster, and pork shoulder dishes. Mango rice pudding dessert was unique and delicious. Wish they had an NA beer on the menu, or diet coke.
