Pretty cool spot for a meeting up with friends or a casual date night . One of the few places that have Old Overholt Rye whiskey, so that's very appreciated. Decent food.and service. Update after going several more times.... The wings are still amazing and my go to when I'm craving wings. Staff is awesome still.

Surprisingly awesome experience for a first-time visitor, I was also impressed how fast the food were served. All dishes offered for BRW24 were excellent, and can be ordered from their regular menu. Very generous portion too. I'd definitely come back to try out other dishes as well as the Hoppy Hours.

Great food and atmosphere. Ordered the seared tuna ahi salad, basically like an Asian salad with really good seared tuna on it. Fantastic. Beer selection is massive and overwhelming, as it should be. They also have a big whiskey list (and apparently a whiskey of the month club). Close to the UC theater, perfect spot for a pre-show meal and/or drink. Would definitely go again!

I liked almost everything! The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was perfect plus we had excellent customer service from Wren, (my apologies if I didn't get it correctly). I will be back!

AMAZING! If you are going, definitely upgrade your burger with the TRUFFLE FRIES! By far may be my favorite restaurant in Berkeley 🤭 Totally recommend getting appetizers: cheese balls with the Brussels sprouts. which was clean plate! Also love the ambiance and such a welcoming atmosphere here! Great for catching up with friends or a pretty date night

I absolutely love this place. There's a saying around the states: a good whiskey bar has great bar food... And it absolutely does. Arugula salad, Fig burger, Fire cracker wings, margaritas, and an atmosphere to love. I'm also a whiskey member for a year and you get 10% off and $10coupon each month with your monthly bottle of whiskey and gifts. I go here at least once a month and I cook from home mostly.

Really 2.5 stars. Way too many TV's, we got here after a big rush, the restaurant was less than half full. The bison burger was good, but kinda sweet, but I got a rare almost coldburger when I ordered medium rare. The salad was a joke, no dressing and just a handful of arugula. I ordered a whiskey on the rocks and it came watered down after the food arrived. Wife's salad was meh, but her Manhattan was good. Staff was friendly-ish. They do have a good whiskey selection, so will maybe come back just for drinks. I would maybe come here again
