    Pomegranate margarita and mango margarita
    Sabrina M.

    I had incredible service the first time I ate here! Our waiter was very attentive and friendly. The food was good but overpriced for what it was, especially the appetizers. I did like that the kitchen could easily accommodate a vegetarian or vegan and make a custom dish. The drinks were tasty but not special enough or tasty enough to justify $18 for a cocktail. My pomegranate margarita tasted like a normal margarita. I wish the flavors were more pronounced and also wish they had a happy hour menu! I enjoyed the vibes and the service and would definitely go back!

    Celebrated my 35th birthday dinner here and I enjoyed every bit of it. My boyfriend actually found this place and some of our friends lived nearby so it was very convenient. This restaurant had a really good ambiance. I really like the semi dark ambiance to it with nice little lamps on the table. The service here was amazing. From when we arrived until we left. We were given champagne to cheers with our friends compliments of the restaurant. Shout out to our server MIGUEL he was amazing. Gave us enough time to looked through the menu and explained the menu in detail to us. All the servers were very attentive and made sure they cleared our table accordingly. We ordered a couple of appetizers. The sliders, oysters and calamari. All the appetizers was really good. The calamari was cooked perfectly, the oysters were fresh and had different sauces included. The wagyu sliders was actually really good and the quality of meat was on point. For our entree, I got the rack of lamb, my boyfriend and his friend got the NY steak and his girlfriend got the duck. I'm not even sure where to begin. We finished all the food. My rack of lamb was seasoned well and cooked well. It was definitely cooked to my liking. My boyfriend and his friend also enjoyed their NY steak which I also tasted and I really enjoyed it because it was also cooked well and it was very tasty. The butter it came with as well as the veggies. Not everyone likes lamb so the NY would be my next recommendation for steaks. What I was surprised with was the duck breast. We all tried our friends food and we almost finished her plate. I have never had duck and I'm glad I tried it here cause it was really good. It didn't taste bad at all. It was seasoned very well. I also brought in my own cake and after dinner they served it to us with the candle and even cut the cake for us. One of the best restaurants I've tried in awhile. My boyfriend did a good job on this restaurant pick cause I enjoyed every bit of it. Thank you Ceron for the dining experience. I had a great time celebrating my birthday here.

    I went to Ceron with a group of people on a Tuesday night. I got there a little early and had the bar to myself. I didn't try a drink off their menu because I saw a bottle of rhubarb and strawberry gin on the shelf so I asked the bartender to make me a martini from that gin. It was strong, but delightful to drink. If you need liquid courage, that may be a good one to go to. Once my friends arrived we were promptly seated (we did have a reservation, but probably didn't need one that day). We ordered a few dishes. I was pleasantly surprised by how well the duck dish was cooked. I would definitely order again. Another friend ordered the lamb chops and they looked divine. Price is a bit high, but the atmosphere and service were on point that night. Lovely dinner.

    Ceron is such a vibe, and the food here is hella good. The sliders and garlic prawns were the kind of appetizers I kept thinking about even after we left. I would literally come back just to order these two menu items. Another cool thing is their mocktail menu; they have a good amount of drinks for anyone who's sober or doesn't drink alcohol, and they're mixed SO well too! Everything we ordered tasted sooo good, like they really know how to season their food properly. Amazing food, great service, and a really luxe atmosphere. Ceron is a spot I will keep coming back to.

    Restaurant is classy and the ambiance is superb. Staff was super attentive and was constantly at our table to make sure we didn't need anything. Food was top notch and everything was cooked perfectly. They also gave us a couple free glasses of champagne to celebrate our anniversary! Would definitely recommend!

    Excelllennttttttt!!! Definitely try this place if you are looking for an upscaled experience! The venue is gorgeous and open, and has patio doors that open up. It's a really nice vibe and makes you feel like you're somewhere else. The staff is super helpful and professional. It's like they were trained by the best! The way plates were set and presented to they way they poured glasses of wine, you can tell they care about the craft and technique! Now the food! Phenomenal! The crab cakes were cooked to perfection and weren't cold on the inside at all. They had a nice crumbly texture to them and they melted in your mouth. The lobster fettuccini was perfect, the sauces mixed into together, and the amount of lobster they give you is enough for 2! The filet mignon was a little on the drier side, but still well seasoned especially with their hollandaise! The desserts were also top notch! Definitely don't skip on looking at the dessert menu!

    Stopped by Friday afternoon for a drink. We were in town waiting for a graduation to start & had some extra time. This place was a find! Walked in and sat at the bar. Service was great! We shared the sliders and had a drink each. Everything was yummy! We will be back for dinner service!

    Seafood pasta, yummy and flavorful.
    Char C.

    Yes!! Try this place and hear's why. Tucked into a small strip in Alameda, this spot is a gem. The space is beautiful--clean, stylish, and surprisingly calming. Service was quiet but attentive, which made the whole experience feel effortless. The food was the real star. We started with the Brussels sprouts (light, crispy, and perfectly cooked), calamari (well‑seasoned and not heavy at all), and warm biscuits with whipped honey butter--so good. The clam chowder stole the show for us: poured tableside, rich but not heavy, and full of flavor. For entrées, the seafood pasta was fantastic, the lobster rigatoni was delicious (just wished for a bit more lobster), the ribeye was cooked perfectly, and the lamb--while tasty--could've used a touch more time. Overall, this place is an easy 5 stars. Beautiful atmosphere, great service, and memorable food. I'll definitely be back to try the dishes we couldn't get to.

    Celebrated Valentine's Day here. Nice ambiance with comfortable, spacious seating. Staff was attentive and friendly. Very tasty clam chowder - thick, rich, and creamy; not watered down like I've had elsewhere. Hubby really enjoyed the wagyu sliders as well. He had the duck breast and i had the ribeye - we both cleaned our plates! Deliciousness on point. Dessert was equally enjoyable. He had the hazelnut choux and i had the "banoffee" tart. Beautifully plated, sweet, and delectable. Even their coffee is top-notch! And shout out to the all female kitchen crew! You knocked it outta the park tonight.

    Birthday brunch outing. Overall everything was delicious. I did expect the crab cakes to be closer to the size of the English muffin. It looked like half of the muffin was just egg w/ sauce. Also, the egg on the hash wasn't running like expected either. Our reservation grew by one last minute and the staff easily accommodated the change. Thankful the server suggested getting a bottle instead of individual mimosas because it just made more sense. Not pictured is the 10 oz rib eye which was also very tasty.

    Amazing! I wish I had taken photos of everything we ate but I didn't. We ordered so much food and everything was beyond any expectations we had. The service was great! The place is huge and it wasn't even packed which was surprising. I love that there was light and we could see the kitchen and bar area. Let me try to list everything we ordered. Oysters Calamari Biscuits Crudo Tartare Strawberry salad Ribeye Seafood pasta Duck Lamb And pasta with steak Everything was amazing!

    PARMESAN TEMPURA BRUSSELS SPROUTS - $18
    Tu-Anh N.

    WHEN: Sun @11:30am PARKING: They have their own free parking lot in the back! Enter through Pacific Ave. RESTROOM: Dark with 3 stalls. Lots of tampons and pads out for free and up for grabs. Toilets are hard to flush so I can see why some people just don't. Mirrors are placed way too high it's practically useless. I made reservations here for my birthday on Valentine's Day weekend with my 3 friends. This place is HUGE but to my surprise it's hardly busy. The hostess was amazing, but our server didn't seem very warm. Maybe we annoyed him asking him to take photos of us. It was nice they both wished me Happy Birthday since I made that note on the reservations. It was brunch and it was hard finding the breakfast beverage menu...which was tucked in the middle of the drink menu past all the alcoholic beverages. We told our server that we will be doing family style dining and ordered: MAIN LOBSTER TAIL & AVOCADO BENEDICT - $32 Country Potatoes, Toasted English Muffin & Hollandaise. This was good and the country potatoes also had bell peppers and onions. A solid dish with a single hunk of the lobster on each English muffin. DUNGENESS CRAB & BROKAW AVOCADO - $26 Summer Citrus, Parsley Oil, Lime Aioli & Buckwheat Tuile This was definitely more like small appetizer. It was refreshing with he sweet oranges slice, and very well presented. ZUCCHINI FRITTERS - $17 Sweet Silver Queen Corn w/Pasilla Peppers, Chipotle Aiole & Cotija I wish the server told us this dish only comes in 3 pieces. We would have paid more for a 4th since we did say we will eat family style. I've see restaurants do this before. It tasted fine, like little tiny mini crab cakes...but without the crab. 3 pieces for $17 ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND. CHICKEN & WAFFLE - $22 Comes w/Spicy Syrup. Heavily seasoned and salty white meat. The waffle was soft. Nothing special. Skip. We were all still hungry and ordered more food: BUTTERMILK CHIVE BISCUITS - $15 Comes w/Honey Butter that has sea salt flakes on top. Only comes in 3. We should have known and asked how many pieces this comes with. Yummy biscuits but they are SO TINY. $15!?!?! It's like a sample. The butter was nice. PARMESAN TEMPURA BRUSSELS SPROUTS - $18 Comes w/ Chipotle Aioli. These were fun and yummy. Didn't know it came with a dipping sauce until we were halfway done with it. I enjoyed these! Not gonna lie, I was disappointed there was not a birthday treat like I read on yelp. This place is lovely (I guess), the food was decent for the most part, but I didn't like the price. This place wasn't for me.

    "Lobster roll"

    The quality of the food does not match the price!! Crab cakes did not taste fresh and for 3 tiny flat pieces, save your money. The avocado crab salad was decent. I was excited for the lobster roll!! Disappointed, I couldn't eat it. Definitely not a traditional "lobster roll ", no chunks of lobster, rather it was chopped up like a crab salad. I should have looked at the pictures of it per usual but I didn't, my fault. My half of the bill was $80 and I was not satisfied, still hungry. Also, the service was slow on a Sunday afternoon. I'm assuming someone called in because Mr man was the only one taking orders and serving. With that being said, he could have greeted me but I sat there 15min, before he did. Definitely won't be back!

    I actually haphazardly stumbled upon this place a few months back after hanging out at a brewery…read morenext door. After scoping out the vibes of the place and the menu, I told myself to make sure to give this a shot. The place is in a redeveloped corner of Alameda right next to the bay. Probably used to be Navy base grounds back in the day. But now there's a couple of blocks worth of hip warehouse-y type of buildings, mostly restaurants, beer spots, some lofts and a little retail commerce. Very happening even though the surrounding area is a ghost town. Dining area not too big, maybe a couple of rooms that can hold about 20-30 heads each. Think there's another room for a private party/overflow. Decor pretty minimalist and stark. Service on the upscale side but in my stay, matched the decor, very minimalist and stark. Efficient enough but a little terse with little emotion. But I know service personality can differ from time to time or person to person. Just my obsy for one out. Daily Crudo ($20/4*) I think this rotates daily. Our choices that day was hamachi or a house smoked sturgeon. The sturgeon really piqued my interest but then it really wouldn't be a 'crudo' anymore would it, since I relate crudos to something 'raw-ish'. So I chose the hamachi. Very pretty plating, I love symmetry and balance. The thin slices of hamachi were indeed fresh, sitting in a stealthy pool of yuzu and olive oil. There are some fresno pepper slices and microgreens that garnish and a delicious nori cracker to break and accompany the crudo. This went really well with my glass of Fume Blanc. Caeser ($17/4.5*) We split this salad as their version sounded super cool. A miso-tinged Caeser dressing, lots of rustic garlic croutons and feathery soft grated parm and a soft-boiled egg. I love properly made Caesers and this was one of the best and unique versions I've ever had. The umami punch and the diverse textures just hit with me. A tad salty for a salad, but the crunchy and refreshing lettuce was able to absorb the salt blast. Huge salad too, like ideal for splitting and ridiculously large if for 1. Beef Short Rib ($43/4*) This was on special that night, and since I wasn't feeling Steak Frites (their only other beef entree option) this kinda fell on my lap. Very heavy and hearty dish. The short rib part was impeccable, super tender, gotta be sous vide. Perfectly seasoned with braising elements completely penetrated into the meat. There was a coarse gravy/sauce that covered which was okay, may have been the braising liquid just pureed. Served atop a huge pile of some risotto that I didn't inquire about. This risotto is what made the dish especially heavy. I ate most of it and it put me in a heavy carb coma. Lol. But there was a nice serving of perfectly cooked broccolini which helped balanced out the rich beef and carb heavy risotto. Chocolate Bar ($13/4.5*) Shared this for dessert as I really couldn't take more than just a few bites after the filling entree. But was this impressive, like high end dessert quality. Whoever does the desserts here definitely has some pedigree. The precision cut bar consisted of 3 layers. A brownie layer; a Bailey's mousse; and a salted caramel layer. I was loving the texture of all the different layers playing on one another. And every flavor was distinct without being overly sweet, which hit the right chords with me. A thick ganache garnished off to the side, which was good but just seemed a bit overkill with the already chocolate dominant bar. I think a cream element would have been a better contrast instead of rich chocolate on rich chocolate. But very minor quip on an otherwise skillful dessert. I finished the last few sips of my glass of Rhone with this dessert, and it left me one happy camper. I would definitely return as their style with flavors hits an accord with me. A little French, a smidge of Japanese and a lot of California. Rounding to a fiver, as this place made me more happy than not.

It was just a treat all the way around. Thanks so much. Heather
