   Skates on the Bay is a great dining experience with views of the bay and the Golden Gate Bridge. The menu has a wide variety of options, including offerings for those with allergies. The atmosphere seems great for any occasion, and the service was very friendly.

   Mostly enjoyable meal, but it is not cool to run out of both desserts offered as choices for restaurant week deal. One of them was evidently gone by midafternoon - surely time to make more for the evening?

   We went for Berkeley Restaurant week. Excellent value. Wonderful service, great food, and marvelous view of the sunset.

   Most commendable was the welcoming hospitality and service of Martha. It was my birthday, and she brought me a piece of cake w/a lighted candle! A cherished memory of a joyful celebration!

   Let’s face it - you’re there for the view not the food, but everything is solid enough that we keep going back! Besides, it’s fun and a Berkeley institution.

   Consistently excellent food. The ambience and the gorgeous view of the bay, especially at sunset, is not to be missed.

   We waited about 20 minutes even though we had a reservation, which wasn’t fun but other than that everything was fantastic. The food, the view, the service …. A Bay Area staple for seafood

   This is a thoroughly mediocre food factory. There is no warmth. No welcome. The food is below average and considering the price almost insultingly bad. Swordfish cooked dry. Sauce not served when plate arrived. The accompanying vegetables were cold. Calamari were gooey. Banana ice cream desert would be bested by Dairy Queen. On arrival the hostesses seemed intent on doing everything accept greeting guests. It's sad because the setting is gorgeous.

    Thank you for a wonderful anniversary dinner! We loved the burrata appetizer, the trio seafood and the wine. Also, the zero alcohol cocktails were excellent!! We appreciate that you seated us near the windows and the special dessert was a surprise and lovely! A very memorable occasion- thank you!! And a giant shout out to our server -Mark T. Was superb!
