Huge, 2-story space with a DJ upstairs and random art all over the walls. Vegetarian burger is fine but highly recommend the cheeseless mac n cheese .

Barry Kwok

The mussels and ribs were some of the best food I've had in a while. The vibe of this place is very energetic and lively . It turns into a club late. A place that rivals the best that SF has to offer.

Aaron Bobo

The burger is where it's at! Add provolone and avocado and have it cooked medium rare and you will keep coming back for more. Love the vibe here with the DJ upstairs and high ceilings .

Recommend getting a reservation , or arriving not at peak times to grab delicious cocktails and small plates . A bit on the expensive side.

cami j.

the mussels and fries are my favorite meal in oakland. the broth is rich and flavorful. also-all of the cocktails are magical,but the pimms and needles has a special place in my heart.

David R

My favorite restaurant in Oakland. It's all about the apps: mac n cheese , bone marrow , padron peppers , garlic prawns ...all served in a super trendy space.

Divya Mulanjur

We were here on a Friday for lunch . Good selection of beer and great food. Loved the loft style layout of the place. The cheeseless Mac n cheese , Brussels sprouts and sandwiches were all excellent!

The Taste Sheriff

Awesome spot. Pretty lively , with cool crowds and great food. Try the ribeye , the chicken Milanese , and the tuna appetizer .

RayE

First time there and loved it. Huge former car showroom but very intimate at the bar . Bar staff very professional and friendly . Drinks great. Bar food excellent. Great vibe. Will definitely return.

Ronan Flynn-Curran

This place is huge. Great cocktails , great food. Always have a great time - it's a party vibe in the back, dine out front if you want to chat over dinner !

Adrian Phillips

Big restaurant that I'd imagine is great for parties. Tried the Blackened Catfish with dirty rice and was not disappointed. Great for grabbing a bit at the bar too.

Maggie Sheldon

The no-cheese mac and cheese is so good! I also love their bread pudding . Get a cocktail , share some small plates . I stick to the small plates vs. the entrees.

Fiona

Attentive service, unpretentious environment, and good food. My vegetable ragout was surprisingly spicy - the menu did not mention it at all - but I did have cheese puffs to help it along!

Byron Wilkes

Mua has an incredible interior space and a breadth of menu options. I highly recommend. Moscow Mule was the best drink I had during the night.

Lucas Gardner

An amazing space, great food and cocktails . Highly recommended.

Katie Miller

The vegan mac n cheese was AMAZING. We were sort of bummed that some of the other most popular items were out of stock, but I guess that proves that they're really really good. Will be returning.

Emmy Alice

Fun trendy spot with rich, creamy foods and urban art . We had cheeseless mac n cheese , crab cakes , lettuce wraps , and calinari... All yummy. Nice ambience.

Dave Zissou

I suggest these wide array of plates, good Lamb cheeks , delicious Bone marrow , crispy Fried calamari , a Blackened cat fish and the always enjoyable Brussels sprouts .

Marta Tappero

The ambiance and music are great. The food is just ok, we got the ribs , the Mac n cheese , and some drinks. I don't think they know how to make good drinks. Or what tapas mean.

Shagun Aulakh

My favorite place in Oakland. Really good food (try the tuna tartare ) and hip and diverse crowd to boot!

Joseph Le

Get the no-cheese Mac n cheese !

Michelle Alexandria

Calamari is great to share (avoid eating the peppers unless you like spicy ). Fried chicken and the po'boy crab sandwich are a must try!

Scott

Variety of small plate choices. Mac no cheese . Creative drinks . Fun atmosphere . Excellent service .

E Suliga

Where to start? Mac N Cheese , Fried Calamari , Brussels Sprouts and the Crab PO Boy are a few great ideas.

Alvin W

Must try Mac & Cheese , Shiitake mushrooms and their special popcorn crawfish if it's available. Get the house manhattan if you're there for happy hour .

Andréa Cecil

Things that were good: bone marrow , duck confit , pecan tart (not too sweet). Disclaimer: Ambiance is pretty hipster .

Eugene Zakharenko

Duck Confit the best.

El Doosty

4 of us shared many apps. Standouts included Ahi Tuna , No Cheese Mac, Carpaccio , Ribs and Wings .

Marcela Erazo

Burrata and crab cakes were delicious. The Thai chicken wings were out of this world!

Craig Villamor

Fried chicken & cornbread ! Brussels sprouts in brown butter . A bit of a scene, but fun. LOUD !!

Aron Schindler

Very cool vibe and somewhat upscale clientele. Come for the drinks and atmosphere - food is better (and more reasonably priced) else where. Plus they charge 20% gratuity for party of 5 :(

Nic Neinken

The mussels with that sauce and the French fries were so good.

Ronald Thompson

Great small plates ! No cheese mac and cheese ! Bone marrow ! Ribs ! Good drinks too

Nathan J

Been here a few times. Music is a bit too loud . Seems like they are trying too hard. Bone marrow and fried chicken are fantastic. Not impressed with any of the other entrees.

Neil

Great food, drinks, ambiance, and service! The flourless chocolate cake is smooth and yummy.

Brian Strauss

Great for drinks. That Po Boy is fantastic after a cocktail or five.

J T

The veggie burger is good. Comes with a lot of fries .

Gabs S

Do NOT park outside. Our car war routinely broken into outside the church . If you uber, order the fried chicken .

Tânia Raposo

Best to go with a bigger group so you can have a taste of all the delicious food.

Frank Kim

The 24-hour BBQ spare ribs are simply to die for, went back there just for those.

Eve Rickles-Young

Delicious food, cool atmosphere, eclectic decor . Try the crispy tofu appetizer !

Navin

Highlights were the lamb cheek , Mac & cheese , and the fried chicken .

Duane Edmonds

get the fried chicken (and cornbread ) and save room for the bread pudding . trust me.

Leah Schatz

Mac $ cheese , lamb cheeks and quinoa salad were great. Skip the ribs .

Maddie Mae

Brussels sprouts done right! Squash Mac and "cheese !" I could eat just those all night.

Clinton Winder

Good crowd, good service , lots of energy

Nate R

"Burger Joint " it is not. Had wonderful mussels and catfish . Ask for the gluten free menu if need be.

natalie kay

Fried polenta was awesome!

April Arlia

Food, great menu, small plates to share, great bar !

Melon L

Delicious bar food and even better cocktails .
