- FFredSan Francisco Bay Area •2 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoFood and service was great but it was really noisy. Drinks were just Ok. Difficult to carry on a convo because of the noise and tight seating arrangements.More infoLa MarchaPrice: Expensive• Spanish• Berkeley•4.6
- JJennaSan Diego •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoFood was so good and everyone was so nice! I asked for a booth and they adjusted my reso without question and did all they could to accommodate. Only "issue" was that at times it did get a tad bit too loud (maybe due to where we were sitting, no carpet on the floor in the section I was sitting in), but that's also what made the ambiance so fun and exciting! So really no complains. I would def go back again. PS - The Cod and the Duck were super yummy! They also have homemade Kombucha!More infoRevival Bar+KitchenPrice: Expensive• Californian• Berkeley•4.4
