Ceron Kitchen is the manifestation of the life long dream of Vicente Ceron. Vicente has had a desire to own a restaurant for as long as he could remember. After years of hard work and success as the owner of construction companies, he is finally realizing his dream. Vicente became friends with Ceron Kitchen Executive Chef Juan Jaquez and their relationship has led them to opening Ceron Kitchen, together. Chef Jaquez has worked in several reputable restaurants throughout the Bay Area as a line cook and head chef. Chef Jaquez presents his take on New American Cuisine at Ceron Kitchen. Chef Jaquez will feature Dinner to begin and will later introduce Brunch and Lunch menus. All will offer combinations of seafood and prime steaks along with his signature octopus dishes. Ceron Kitchen is located on the Westside of Alameda on Webster Street, nearby the old Alameda Navy Base. Vicente Ceron is currently building the campus for space rocket company Astra, just down the street.

Ceron Kitchen has lived up to their reputations of the best restaurant in the island of Alameda. On Valentine's Day the owner Vicente Ceron gave individual long stem roses to all the ladies. Classy touch!👏 Chef Juan Jaquez is creative, innovation with some old school techniques. The owner Vincente Ceron is a hands on operator. Our waiter Jesus was professional, courteous and details-oriented. Recommend: calamari fritto, jumbo garlic prawns, Dungeness crab & brokaw avocado, Tomahaw steak for 2. For dessert: Paris brest, creme brulee

Poor service (waiter was very soft spoken and did not seem to have knowledge about the food and menu) and over priced food. I ordered the lobster fettuccine and the lobster was really undercooked (like gelatin). I left a good portion untouched as it appeared to be raw so didn’t get my moneys worth. When I asked about it, I was told the chefs response is it’s cooked al dente (waiter had no idea what this meant when I asked as I only thought pasta is cooked al dente so it didn’t make sense to me) and I was not asked how to make it right or did they seem to care that I was not satisfied with the raw food. If they wish to prepare it that way they should ask how you want it cooked upon ordering. Really overrated and over priced.

One of the best meals I've ever had. I'm never disappointed at Ceron. The cheese plate was perfection, the crab and avocado is absolutely delicious, and our drinks were spot on! I will definitely be back many times!

Upon entering, the restaurant’s ambience was amazing & really made an impression. I entered through the back entrance and stood there for maybe a minute or so & after not being greeted, I walked through the restaurant & found my party. The restaurant was fairly empty, including my party, there were 4 other tables of diners (1 was a birthday of about 8ish people). Orders were taken promptly, food arrived timely, though not all together (party of 3) and was well seasoned, a good temperature and most importantly quite tasty. I would absolutely return and would recommend the restaurant for brunch, lunch or cocktails!

Went to lunch with a colleague to discuss business. The staff was expecting us and allowed us to choose the most comfortable booth. Since it was our first time, we asked for recommendations. We enjoyed each and every dish and can't wait to return to try more items on the menu.
