Mägo, a charming restaurant in Oakland, offers a unique dining experience with its creative menu and warm ambiance. The restaurant's decor features a cozy, intimate feel with soft lighting, perfect for a quiet dinner. The versatile seating options, including a charming back patio with heated lamps, add to the overall experience.
The menu at Mägo presents a mix of flavors, with most dishes receiving positive reviews. The new fall menu showcases creativity, subtle flavors, and unexpected ingredients, reflecting the care put into each dish. The standout dishes include the jicama, rhubarb, feta bunuelo, and radicchio starter, which showcases intriguing flavors, although the execution was a bit disjointed. The ling cod, maitake "ajiaco", capers, and avocado dish was praised for its perfectly cooked ling cod and the earthy depth of the maitake mushrooms.
The pan de coco with plantain butter continues to impress with its delightful combination of sweet bread and creamy plantain. The torta de zanahoria (carrot cake) with rum raisin and cinnamon delivers a classic flavor with a boozy twist. Mark and his crew continue to deliver amazing food with new flavors and beautiful presentation, making the dining experience worth every penny.
Customers have praised the excellent service, noting that the staff is accommodating and attentive, even for guests with dietary restrictions. The tasting menu is considered an incredible value, offering a high-quality dining experience. Some diners have mentioned that while they enjoyed the atmosphere, the dinner took a bit long, suggesting that reducing blank time periods between dishes could enhance the experience. Overall, Mägo remains a wonderful choice for those looking to enjoy exceptional food and service.
