About this restaurant

  • Innovative
  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Charming
Husband and wife Chef Owners Jason & Erin "Cricket" Borajkiewicz create a small menu changing two-three times a week. After working seasonally in Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard, Puerto Rico, and Charleston, the two chefs decided to put down roots in Jason's hometown.

With an ever changing menu, there's no telling what you'll have when you dine with us, but rest assured that you'll leave feeling restored

    Exceptional place. The food was a 10 out of 10. Two couples. All of us raved. We tried it all. Appetizers, dinner, dessert. A 10 on everything.

    As always, The Restorative did not disappoint. The food and atmosphere were amazing. We ordered as much as we could and shared all of our plates so we could try as much of the delicious food as possible. This place is like no other restaurant I've ever been to and a must try, over and over again! I'm already planning my next visit! Thank you for a great meal and a great place to spend time with friends I haven't seen in 30+ years!

    We have been dining at The Restorative since they opened in 2017. We always leave extremely happy! The food is always spot on. The chefs pay attention to every last detail. Last night though... WOW!!! The best meal we have ever had there. Go. Now. You will be glad you did!!!

    We celebrated our wedding anniversary at the Restorative and had a remarkable meal and evening. We sat at the kitchen facing bar and spoke with the owner Jason and chef Tom. Each dish is expertly thought out and prepared. A wonderful mix of fine dining in a relaxed and unpretentious atmosphere. We fully understand why they consistently get great reviews in the entire Bay Area.
