Homeroom Berkeley

Wow. Truly great service, and great food. Really surprised in a good way. I'd given up on any expectation of friendly or helpful service in Berkeley. But this place was a very pleasant surprise. I was dealing with some temporary dietary restrictions and didn't realize the dish I ordered used an ingredient I couldn't have until after I had a few bites. The manager (?) Keith not only offered to substitute, but even agreed to try my fantastic idea of using french fries instead of the macaroni. Holy hell, who does that? The best part is that he was incredibly nice through it all. We were all amazed. I just finished the rest of my fries and cheese, and I really hope they add fries as a gluten free option to pasta to their menu because it is delicious. I will definitely be returning.

This place is much nicer than the Oakland location. It doesn’t feel cramped. It has a fun modern atmosphere and very generous service! My family celebrated a graduation here for my younger brother and the manager gave us a complimentary dessert. A great spot for date night as well. There is something for everyone including vegetarian and gluten free options.
