Took me by surprise. The history of this place is fascinating. The atmosphere fun, drinks strong, and delicious food.

Loved everything. The food was delicious. The drinks were great. Service amazing . Definitely recommend

We came in with a party of six and were seated promptly. Service was great and we ended up trying nearly everything on the food menu -- everything we had was fresh, delicious, and beautiful to look at, too. My favorites were the tofu lettuce cups, house salad, the asparagus, and the chocolate budino for dessert (which may actually have been one of my fave desserts in recent memory with the mousse-like texture and candied nuts on top!). Cocktails were superb. Highly recommend the Money cocktail with the chocolate-chile rim, and the chocolate slushy. read more

The very best. this place is so awesome that no matter how long I would go on about it it wouldn't do it justice. Every single person on the staff is on point whether they're just working weekends or not. I had the best cocktail have ever had in my entire life called the big gulp here and look forward to having it many times again. It gave me a brain freeze that at all tells you what's up with that drink and peaks. They have a sweet atrium type thing in the back where you can chill out with your peeps away from all of the rest of the din And the staff actually comes back to check on you. I saw firsthand the manager come back and ask everybody back there if they were cool. That is so awesome and rare and today's food service industry I can't even talk about it. Go here you will see what I mean. read more

Fun place. We loved our server. Food arrived quickly nice and hot. And great tasting. My only critique is the limited menu. Also music was too loud for this impaired hearing person. read more

What a fun lil gem we found bc of a news article! Happy hour was a DEAL. Summer splash cocktail is incredible, and so were the sweet potato fries and trumpet mushrooms. They also don't allow children which is a plus! read more

Food, drinks, service, ambience and costs outstanding. All 4 of us will be back soon as we had a great time

My first time trying this place was, sadly, a huge disappointment. The bartender was rude and dismissive when asked a simple question about the food menu. I was so taken aback by the bartender's off putting response that I nearly left the establishment. My friend and I moved to a table and, thankfully, had a nice interaction with the server. Unfortunately, the sweet potato fries were charcoal and too salty and the summer squash was burnt. The fried chicken sandwich was simple for the price. I really wanted to enjoy a decent meal in a warm community environment. This wasn't that experience. read more

Great environment, excellent food and drinks. We made a reservation but nobody checked it and it didn't seem to matter as we were seated immediately. Service was, unfortunately, inconsistent and a bit of a let down, as not every server was being proactive about watching the floor, so we had to struggle to get attention, silverware, etc. Assume these are just teething pains and things will improve after they have run for a while. All in all it's an excellent venue with a friendly neighborhood vibe. read more

Super! Amazing craft cocktails that are carefully hand crafted and delicious. They serve handmade butter that is simply amazing. The owners and bartender give great service. Highly recommend! read more

Roses On Adeline - Slushy drink with pop rocks! - Tapas Bars Near Me - Berkeley, California

Outstanding drinks. Jen is a great bartender. Japanese Old Fashioned and The Money are excellent. Jen can make a great cocktail.

Roses is a great neighborhood restaurant and bar. I've been there a few times over the summer and have been consistently happy with the cocktails and the food. (I particularly love The Bees Knees and now it comes with a house-made honey brittle, which was delicious!) Yesterday we had the tofu cups, patatas bravas, and ceviche, and loved it all. So glad Roses is in the neighborhood! read more

delicious food and incredible service. the burger and sweet potato fries were out of this world. 12/10 will be back again!

Great food drink and ambience. Fantastic service as well. Sometimes they have a live DJ

Love this spot! My cocktail was delicious and the veggie crudité and truffle fries were soooo good! Exactly what this area needs and a great spot for a night out with friends without the kiddo. Cannot wait to go back. read more

Atmosphere, nice. Food not that great, drinks were good. Service ok Noisy Location good read more

Nice, looking place beautiful bar. It would've been nice if the waitress gave us some smiles. We went for happy hour very limited menu. The burger was good. The fries and sweet potato fries were outstanding. read more

Beautiful interior design, spectacular cocktail program and all the perfect bites to pair!

The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered the sweet potato fries with chipotle aoli and the ceviche as appetizers. Marvelous, difficult to not gobble it all up! The workers were kind and thorough even under the pressure of a lively environment. I plan on coming back! read more

A neighborhood spot that's worth a drive! Elegantly casual, super chill vibe, yummy food, very creative cocktail menu, sweet staff. There was a groovy jazz two-piece playing when we went; not sure how often they have live music. Can't wait to go back. read more

An all around delightful experience. Ambience spectacular with interesting design choices. Food choices for all tastes. Summer squash with lemon ricotta delicious and best sweet potato fries ever. tutu lettuce wraps a surprise. All sauces magic. Leisurely pace of bar kitchen gives diners and drinkers time to talk and eat. Will be back many times for pleasurable experience. read more

We were seated immediately, but then we sat for 25 minutes before we acknowledged. Our drinks were good, but it took 45 minutes before we received our first appetizers. We ordered 5 dishes and it took a total of 3 hours to receive the balance of our order. Unfortunately a very bad experience. read more

This place is fantastic! The staff were so friendly and kind. We got great recommendations, including the seasonal smash -- which is maybe my new favorite cocktail. All the food we got (bread & butter, patatas bravas, ROA salad, and rigatoni) was delicious. My favorite was definitely the patatas bravas. The vibe was great. Beautiful decor and nice set up of the space. Lots of cute little places. I will definitely be coming back. read more

When you walk into the door at Roses on Adeline you are immediately uplifted by the visual interior. Stepping out of the busyness of Berkeley into a restaurant there to provide you with comfort. The food is delicious satiating your taste buds with satisfaction. The drink menu unending in delicious choices. I highly recommend an evening at Roses. read more

Ridiculous service. Kicked out of restaurant for family dinner after making reservations.

Service was slow to start and acknowledge new person at table. Tapas were so so , salad not too exciting

Had the smash burger, best I've had in a long time. The staff was so kind & the drinks were awesome. Hope they thrive !!

This place is really a hidden gem - please give them your business while they are establishing themselves! The drinks were great, the wine list well-curated, and the food was really excellent. A great place to spend an evening with friends or a date night. Attentive service too. Highly recommend. read more

The decor is gorgeous, the cocktails are splendid and made with great care, the food is tasty (the burger, fantastic), and the crew could not be more friendly. This place is so classy they had a custom neon sign made to go in the front window. What's not to like? Just a perfect spot for dinner and drinks. Go check them out! read more

Great service. Food, ambiance - trendy, lot of fluff, no substance. Cocktail was sugar water. Food was salty. Probably best to stear clear of their house cocktails. read more

Good food, unique drinks, slow table service. We will try again! It's worth it to give another shot.

Excellent food. A decent selection of booze and bevies. Open Til 10:00 when the sidewalks have rolled up everywhere else for local food.

I've been there a few time since they've opened. Great neighborhood spot, with a solid happy hour and a great martini.

Both food and drinks are delicious. The ambiance is nice, place is clean. Come and check it out, 100%recommended.

I live in the neighborhood and have totally been waiting for the place to open. So far I've gone twice, once just for drinks and once with a friend for dinner. I think they're still working out some kinks in the kitchen since it's super brand new but overall it's been a great experience. Decor and ambiance warm and inviting, bar a great place to stop by for a drink after work. some innovative twists on drinks. Food good as well, just a well rounded neighborhood place that also happens to be open late at night!! read more

Everything we had was incredible!! The burgers are amazing! The bees of Berkeley was really good and the hibiscus rum shot was excellent! The service was also incredible! read more

Want some good news in your life? Try Roses. You will become addicted to the creative fresh, organically-grown, sustainable delectables, all for ridiculously modest prices given the quality and presentation. While it is labeled a bar, this is some of the best eats in the Bay Area, and I am super picky, having had free access to Alice Water's cuisine for years and several chefs in the family. But the place itself is gorgeous. The architects, David Soffa and Teresa Clarke are Berkeley's counterpart to Julia Morgan. The four wood and glass panels leading to the trumpetvine patio are remincent of Morgan's balcony doors in her house on Haste Street, but with an added elegant flourish. The pattern of the varnished wood floors in that room is exquisite. One should note all the hanging lamps, the marvellous tile work over the bar and all the rare marble. There are surprise touches, stained glass, a future art gallery in the hall and the kind of bathroom only high end hotels offer. Roses has a few rooms and every kind of seating you could desire while making it all look complimentary and beautiful: a large red satin-like booth welcomes guests at separate tables, luxurious nooks, high tops as well as a couch area. Such a treasure. I've been taking all my friends there for special occasions and they love it. It's a new bar/food venue with more increasing entertainment that is gaining popularity fast so enjoy before the lines start spilling onto the street! read more
