Best Lunch Restaurants in Berkeley

The chef beautifully presented each tasty item that we ordered. The setting in Julia Morgan's historic Berkeley City Club is magnificent. We easily enjoyed our conversations during a leisurely lunch. Thanks so much to all the staff and to our waitress Maria in particular.

Outstanding service, delicious cuisine and comfortable setting. Every bite was a delight. There were flashing lights in the street due to an emergency vehicle and for half our meal we had to deal with this on our faces since we were seated at a window. No fault of the restaurant but it would have been nice to be offered a different table.

It was an incredible experience thank you………………………..

Excellent food and service! Wish there was some traditional jamon. Otherwise, awesome happy hour deal.

We come to Heroic Italian before seeing our play at Berkeley Rep and are always so glad we have chosen to eat here. The salads (this time we did the California Caprese salad - sooo good,, and enough for 2) are always hearty and original. The pinsas are a favorite -- we love the crispy crust and the fresh toppings. Serving is prompt and friendly. (and Berkely Rep patrons get a complimentary glass of Prosecco.). No wonder we keep returning!
