Babette - Berkeley

The renovations on the restaurant are beautifully done. While it's unfortunate to see Lanesplitter close, this new place is certainly a step up. Although it was a 'soft opening' and the staff is still getting everything sorted, they were very attentive, helpful, and considerate. The Little Gems salad was delicious, the homemade gnocchi was outstanding, and their pepperoni pizza was delightfully cheesy. I will definitely be returning!

Absolutely delicious! The plum sauce paired wonderfully with the tender chicken thigh. The saffron rice, with its blend of sour cherries and eggplant, was exceptional! Everything was incredibly flavorful, and the ambiance of the restaurant is stunning. The back patio feels like a serene oasis!

I visited on Saturday night during the late shift, and I was truly amazed by how well everything turned out thanks to the work I contributed! My experience was so enjoyable that I felt compelled to share it in a review. The staff made my visit very satisfying and comfortable, despite my early morning job. It was truly unbelievable! This place definitely has the best patio around. I came with 10 friends who had a similar experience. I will definitely be back to enjoy more delicious food, even though I work here.

So delicious!! I love the new location and the beautiful back garden. Lovely and unique flavor combinations, great wine list, and fine dining alfresco in the evening. In the mornings they serve great coffee and delicious pastries.

Love this place. The food was tasty and the portions were generous. Service was super attentive. Charming courtyard with a huge red wood tree. I am glad that the owners did not remove it.
