   I been wanting to try the StudyHall for awhile now. Indoor seating / bar area was loud but not in a uncomfortable way. They had a live DJ which was nice. The outside area was quiet. Sound proof doors blocked out the live music. I sat outside. The view was amazing only thing that probably would have been better is more view of the bay area bridges & if I would have made the sunset. The food and drinks were great. My only problem was the heat lamps. As much as I appreciate the lamps the heating areas were smaller than I anticipated. The heat lamps great for your table until a strong gust come or you happen to lean to far back. More heat lamp through out the patio area would be ideal

   We had a 6p reservation for indoor dining and upon arrival we were told that was not available. They then put at a side table outside and as it was getting cool, I asked for a heat lamp and the hostess said, No there are none available and walked away. Food menu is limited and 33 dollars for a burger and fries is over the top. I should have done more homework to see that this is actually a bar vs. A restaurant but Open Table had it show up for dinner reservation. Ok place for a cocktail and nibble with Berkeley skyline view.

   We came for the Valentine's Day prix fixe dinner and it was indeed wonderful food, well presented (although a little pricier than we're used to paying). The problem was the interior table they showed us to was centered between the music speakers and a party (emphasis on the word party) of eight quite near. We ended asking to be moved outdoors, but there aren't a sufficient number of heaters to take care of everyone out there, so we were a little colder than we're used to being while dining. Service was top notch.

   It was good food and good cocktails however they had so many additional charges a health charge a mandatory tip charge a surcharge a tax charge. Six people went to eat and it was 450 bucks.

   Strike 1: When I arrived at the restaurant at 4:57 pm for my 5 pm reservation, the host asked me "do y'all wanna be seated now?" which was SUPER unprofessional in my opinion. not just how he asked but yes. I do want to sit at the time of my reservation. Strike 2: I waited 10 minutes at the table without being greeted or offered water by my waitress. She took our drink order and then we didn't see her again for another 20 minutes. Meanwhile, I'm watching the table who was sat AFTER us get their drinks & food before I ever got my first beverage. Strike 2.5: I had to flag down ANOTHER waitress to complain about being there 30 minutes without a drink. She said "Sunday's are just a bad day to come." like I didn't realize the service i get is dependent on the day i come? She then proceeded to get my order wrong. I ordered the garlic parmesan truffle fries, and i got regular. AND ITS SUPER HARD TO FIND MY WAITRESS OR ANY OTHER SERVICE STAFF FOR THAT MATTER. Strike 3: The food was absolutely garbage. The spinach artichoke dip was underseasoned, the wings were skimpy, and it took us ANOTHER 30 minutes to get a 2nd round of drinks. Won't be returning. So many better rooftops in the area. This place is definitely for people who haven't worked in the service industry and don't know the difference between good and bad service. Maybe if I don't come on a Sunday it'll be better? but that just shows a lack of standards across the board.

    Great environment and great food. This is a great rooftop to hangout prior to a Cal football game.
