Popped in for no reason for a late lunch. I was greeted very warmly. Chicken sandwich looked like it was featured on the menu so... I ordered that with a green salad. Really hit the spot, and I believe I have tried every legit fried chicken sandwich inBerkeley and Oakland. Definitely planning to make this a regular, and to try the other tasty stuff on the menu. The rose gardenseating is a great plus. Read more
Hands down, they make the best crispy chicken on brioche sandwiches anywhere! Soups are kinda amazing - share a sandwich and... order a bowel of soup. Had the Thai, lemon grass, chicken soup today and it was delicious. The owner and chef is friendly, andprovides great customer service - just talk with him for a couple of minutes, and you'll know what I mean. Read more
I legitimately don't think you'll find a better chicken sandwich anywhere else. It was incredibly juicy (thankfully they give... lots of napkins!) and the breading is super crunchy, not soggy at all! They don't really have indoor seating, but the back patiohas lots of space. Read more
This place is an amazing addition to the Berkeley food scene. The chicken sandwich is especially amazing. No hyperbole, the best... chicken sandwich I've ever eaten. The entire family loved their food. The cookies and orzo salad are also my favorites. You cansee the remnants of the chicken sandwich! Come stop by and order from here. Read more
Awesome new little place. Food is delicious everything is made to order, service is great the owner is really nice and if you... like you can eat in the back, there's a large rose garden where you can sit and enjoy your meal. Read more
Kindest service I've had in forever. They gave me a free cookie because google up-charges and it's cheaper on their website!
