Best Pre-Theater Restaurants in El Cerrito

This was my first STK experience and I feel like I've found a new favorite. I LOVE the atmosphere and the menu is right up my alley. I had the blue iceberg wedge and the short rib quesadilla. We shared the brussels sprouts... all outstanding. My friend had the STK sandwich (rare) and it was the star of the table. Delicious drink menu with "virgin" options. I look forward to visiting STK here in SF again as well in other locations like Vegas in January.

I have had many lovely meals at Revival, but I do wish that something could be done to reduct the noise level, which defies conversation.

Outstanding service, delicious cuisine and comfortable setting. Every bite was a delight. There were flashing lights in the street due to an emergency vehicle and for half our meal we had to deal with this on our faces since we were seated at a window. No fault of the restaurant but it would have been nice to be offered a different table.

We come to Heroic Italian before seeing our play at Berkeley Rep and are always so glad we have chosen to eat here. The salads (this time we did the California Caprese salad - sooo good,, and enough for 2) are always hearty and original. The pinsas are a favorite -- we love the crispy crust and the fresh toppings. Serving is prompt and friendly. (and Berkely Rep patrons get a complimentary glass of Prosecco.). No wonder we keep returning!
