Jazz Cafe

★ 4.4 / 5 (1183 reviews)

The restaurant in question is a cozy, hidden gem in downtown Berkeley that offers a variety of menu options and excellent daily specials. The staff is known for being super friendly and the food is top-notch, with highlights including swordfish salad, grilled goat cheese salad, and hearty stews. While some customers may find the no laptops policy during lunch hours off-putting, others appreciate the laid-back, old-timey vibe of the cafe. Even though the cafe no longer hosts live jazz performances, it remains a great spot to relax with a good cup of coffee or enjoy a delicious meal before a show at the nearby Berkeley Rep. Overall, despite a few minor issues with management and service, the cafe seems to be a popular choice among regular patrons for its quality food, friendly staff, and charming ambiance.
