Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in El Cerrito

The service and food are great! Really kind and special people making fresh, flavorful food.

A wonderful restaurant in the delightful village of Port Costa. The ambiance and service are top notch. The food is very good, though as vegans our choices were limited. We were able to put together a meal with some salads and side dishes, but would be nice if a thoughtful, non-pasta vegan main could be added. There wasn't any protein or fat in our dinner, so we left feeling a bit hungry, though the omnivore friends we were with were quite satisfied. We are hoping that the restaurant recognizes this issue so we can return and bring other friends in the future.

Lovely environment, we felt welcomed and cared for. Appetizers were good, shishitos were flavorful and crunchy! The clam chowder was full of clams and fresh, fish and chips also hit the mark. Tuna salad was ok. We had a lovely birthday celebration and our server Jill made it even better. Positive attitude, knowledgeable about the menu and really great service! Thank you!

This was a special occasion. My sister loves Ajanta, is from out of town and hadn’t visited in a while. We were welcomed graciously, given a table by the window and then served a wonderful meal. Truly memorable. Well done Ajanta.

food was great, and the view and ambience are unbeatable, and our server was very nice, but the service was extremely slow but I will go back again because they've just reopened under new management and they have a good menu as well.
