“I️ absolutely love Pomet. The food is so fresh and bright. The service is impeccable. My husband and I️ were excited to celebrate our anniversary at Pomet tonight because we love it so much, but unfortunately our son fell really sick. I called Pomet this morning, worried that I️ was outside of the cancellation window. The only thing they were concerned about was that my son was sick. ❤️so grateful for the kindness that accompanies this amazing restaurant. Can’t wait to celebrate our anniversary at Pomet at another date.“

It's in the historical park area, not obviously a place you'd expect to encounter a boutique restaurant...you need to know it's there. Go find it. It's great.“

My husband and I started with cocktails and they were absolutely delicious. Then we had the chicken liver and waffles and we all but licked the plate. For dinner I had the fried petrale sole and my husband had the pork neck. We also couldn't resist getting the whipped potatoes, which were everything you want potatoes to be. We both loved our entrees and stole bites from each other. Very flavorful, very lovely presentation, and nice portions. For dessert we shared the chocolate puddin and it was also excellent. We were well taken care of by all of the staff and got some lovely drink recommendations that paired well with each course. We really enjoyed this dining experience and look forward to returning. We would like to do the family dinner with beverage pairing next. Love this place!“

My husband and I started with the pretzel appetizer, and it came out piping hot, with a selection of sauces, so so good!!! We moved on to the main event, burgers! Just what we were in the mood for! BBQ Burger was just wonderfully cooked, and tasted top notch! Classic Burger! Divine!! Awesome flavor and just right amount of accompaniments! There is nothing we did not like about The Morrison! Our server, William, was fantastic as well! Very knowledgeable, carried on a great conversation as well! He was prompt in checking in on us, refilling our drinks, the whole sha-bang! If you are in the area, and you want a laid back atmosphere, with truly great food, and many options, you must make a stop to The Morrison, you will not be disappointed! **Parking...there is on site parking, however, be advised it is a small parking lot, and it can be a bit tight**“

“I can't say enough good things about Low Bar! I hosted a holiday party here last night for a local professional organization, and Low Bar was the perfect venue. The staff are so thoughtful, organized, and attentive, and the food is fantastic. Low Bar is really the place to be if you want fun, casual vibes but high quality food. Their private room was perfect for a 30-person event. The price was reasonable for the high quality of food, cocktails, and service. Our guests ranged from graduate students to retirees, and folks from all walks of life remarked on how much they loved the location.Justin was our server, and he was the dream to work with. Friendly, professional, attentive-- he really made the party a success. I felt like I could just show up and Justin and the Low Bar would make everything run well.Their event manager Sam was also a joy to work with and made everything so easy. The location is perfect for public transit accessibility, and there is a parking lot across the street.Don't sleep on the churrros! The food here is amazing.“

The bartender and staff are super attentive, quick, and happy to modify based on taste. I really enjoyed the arugula salad and grilled cheese.

There was also a good amount of vegetarians options too!If you get the chance to try anything, the shots are insanely good. This place was a great spot to end a crazy busy Thursday work night!“

“We tried their brunch menu and was not disappointed. We ordered from the most friendly staff at the window the Andouille Shrimp and Grits which had creamy cheddar grits, the breakfast sandwich with home style fried potatoes, Banana Bread Louise which is banana bread french toast with Bananas Foster topping and a Grains in Purgatory bowl which had farrow. Roasted vegetables and two sunny side up eggs topped with chili crisp. I was pleasantly surprised by how flavorful the Grains in Purgatory was considering it was mostly vegetarian except for the eggs. It has the right amount of spice and the farrow had a nice bite. The breakfast sandwich had scrambled egg and thickly sliced bacon and arugula, the home fries that came on the side were perfectly seasoned and crispy. Those potatoes were the bomb! The gravy on the shrimp and grits was a little too salty for me but those creamy cheddar grits were so rich and smooth. Get the Banana Bread Louise to share for dessert! It's amazing! I look forward to trying items on their lunch menu especially the jerk salmon“

Maybe I'm just getting older... the lights were too bright and the tables were arranged in a funny way that wasn't as .... Romantic Service was great. The food was yummy. I had their Paloma. They promised it was very smoky and it was indeed deliciously smokey. Had their special wok-fried calamari. It was very flavourful. The husband had their three meat meatball with spaghetti. Although the meatballs weee tasty, the dish was a bit anemic and could've used a bit more sauce. I had their infamous seafood stew. It was decent. Everything was cooked just right. But the flavour wasn't as intense. Perhaps because the wok fried calamari was so flavorful in comparison“

“Renewed interest when I saw their Instagram post about allowing friendly dogs inside. My friend was dog sitting and took our dog over to the confusion of the workers who said there was just a dog brawl the week before and didn't know the owner had made that post. They let him stay though, and our dog were the only one, so she got all the attention. Today there is one dog at the bar and two out on the parklet. My husband and I were third in line to "seat ourselves" at 6:45pm on a Friday in February. The couple in front of us left and we were next because the party of 4 wanted a booth. We were seated at the end of the long copper table meant for groups. We have been here with a larger group before. The only annoying thing about this seat is that some people who are impatient hover above you while they wait for a table. The waitstaff is efficient. They take your order and clear your table quickly. The check is paid with handheld machine and it's now a cashless restaurant. There are four tvs for sports lovers. Three over the bar and one in the "dining area." There are a few parklet tables, and some tables in the windows, which open during nice weather. Very convenient location across from Rockridge BART. Otherwise you can pay for street parking or find free residential parking. There are two unisex restroom, one hidden in the dining corner, and the other towards the kitchen. There is a full bar and happy hour. You can sign up for their email list or social media to keep up on events, but they regularly have karaoke and trivia. If you walk by, they will have posters on their windows. We have been here only occasionally over the last 10 years of living in Rockridge. Today we had the deviled eggs, which come six in a plate and are well formed. The cheeseburger is juicy but too bready for my liking. The fries have that double crisp crust trend that showed up some decade ago for no good reason, but ketchup helps everything. There is a caddy full of all kinds of condiments for the table. We also had the Caesar kale salad, which is very big. The chicken cubes are juicy but the crispy garbanzos aren't too cohesive. We asked for a takeout box and it was compostable and came to the table for us to self pack. Kid friendly so there were some kids during our visit. Neighborhood bar and grill. Nothing mind blowing but a good staple to have in the area. There is wifi available, check the menu on the wall for the password.“

The chef is a magician and super approachable as he walks through the restaurant making sure everybody is enjoying themselves. The mixologist is top notch and equally friendly and engaging as the chef. The waiting staff is genuine, friendly, knowledgeable and are all clearly enjoying their job. And the food....and the drinks and the place....MAGICK!!“

“I been here several times for the chicken sandwich or salad when "I'm watching" it ? . The slaw served with chicken is unique. Not cream based but some type of vinegar dressing. The desert menu is growing. This is what's left of my banana cream pie. It was light and fresh. Nice thick crust like graham crackers really supports the banana and custard. Banana wasn't too thick and had a nice chocolate shaving on top. Line outside moves quick.“

“I had two dishes , a cup of gumbo and the Baja fish taco. Fish taco had fresh ingredients and leaned heavy into it with light sauce, delicious. Gumbo needed a bit of salt but that’s me, still found it super tasty. Out of there full for under 20 bucks was dope also.“
