This is an excellent pan-Latin America restaurant that has menu offerings ranging from Venezuela to Mexico. (Arepas, Empanadas,... Tacos, and Latin plates). Excellent cocktails, food is made with care and not overly filled with grease or fillers, the settingis SUPER casual but the food comes with higher quality than I would have expected. Prices are very fair and you get a good dealfor amazing food and cocktails. The restaurant has indoor seating, bar seating, and outdoor patio seating in the back. Youorder at the counter here then take a number and sit at your table. You are free to order more from the table as you please. Theservers were friendly, the space was clean, and I never felt rushed to leave as I enjoyed my final cocktail. Highly recommendedfor the east Bay Area if you are someone who enjoys sit down Mexican food or Latin American food. 10/10 worth the trip toBerkeley. Great coffee places and little shops to see afterwards to burn off the alcohol! Read more
Update: I came back here and sampled what is now my favorite drink in the east bay, the RANCHERO, is now my first place... adult-oriented superdrink in the east bay, with my other favorite drink here being the Arabian Knight served at Zaytoon onSolano. The Arepa, a Venezuelan-Colombian comfort food festival in a thick tortilla, with black beans, plantains, meat, onionsand various other ingredients is a mind-blowing cross cultural experience disguised as a stuffed tortilla, but don't be fooled.This is Latin soul food, in West Berkeley. The Staff, K***** ( I never name staff without their permission), is a greatmixologist, and the kitchen staff is on fire with their food. Great people, Great vibe, and great drinks, makes for a greatnight. I hate to share this place, but duty demands that I recommend this place for all east bay folks who like great food anddrink, with no pretense and at a great price. Now, on to my full Mezcal Review: I didn't get a chance to try the food tonight,as I came in to do some serious drinking with a friend. That will be for later review. But I can say that the staff here isabsolutely dynamite, and initiated me into the maze of Mezcal (Tequilia's deeper brother), with a couple of fantastic shots, anda house drink, called a "Tepe", named after the famous Mexican drink "Tepache", a low alcohol fermented pineapple and fruitdrink, from pre-Columbian times loved by both the Maya and the Nahua The star of the night, was a shot of Bozal Pechuga Mezcal,made with Agave Cupreata (only on mountain slopes of the Rio Balsas basin) as a limited release from Mazatlan, Guerrero, andactually has a cooked chicken added to the second distillation, giving it an incredible flavor that I seriously had to stop andtake in, as I had never tasted anything like that before. It was exotic, and rich, and for some reason reminded me of Charanda,a sugarcane liquor from the State of Michoacán, that I had one night that had been infused with the flavor of Carni Read more
With its cozy atmosphere and trippy water signs, El Patio provides you with that big burrito energy. You could, however, opt for... the personality empanadas that are crispy on the outside but a softy when you get to know them:) Read more
I went here for their Venezuelan dishes/arepas. Food was good, but I was expecting an authentic Venezuelan place. It?s more of a... general Latin food restaurant with some Venezuelan plates. Read more
