Frenchy small plates both delicious and expensive. Really eccentric but reliable wine list. Had a Georgian (the country), and a Canary Island red by the glass.

Trust all wine recommendations and definitely get the lil ricotta fritters for dessert.

The flatbreads are perfection - from crust to flavorful sauce to right amount of toppings. Merguez and potato tallegio ones were both awesome.

Tables are hard to nab, but sometimes you can find a seat at the bar or at the communal table in the center of the room. Read more

Cozy, dimly lit with some Latin Jazz playing at a comfortable volume for conversation. Good for night caps.

Go during Oakland Restaurant Week- special menu is super. And the waiters know their wine.

Mussels + fries is a definite. Then ask the waiter to pick another and pair your wine. Very good and uncommon wines mostly italian and spanish.

Wine flight is a great value. Pomme frites are perfect for sharing!

Try their selection of belgian beer. Lot of them can't be found on stores. I tried grimbergen dubbel and loved it

Best mussels ever. You must try them. Their cheeses are consistently solid as well.
