Z Cafe & Bar
American, Californian
2735 Broadway, Oakland, CA, 94612
|
|
A car dealership may not seem the most inviting location for a bar-restaurant, but when, as in the case of Z Cafe & Bar, it has expansive windows, high ceilings and tile floors, it makes a rather perfect fit. Built in 1924 for the Howard Automobile Co. as a Buick showroom, this 1-year-old American bistro's home on Oakland's Broadway Auto Row just a few blocks from the border of downtown looks attractive. Z Cafe also has one of the best happy hours around. People from nearby businesses crowd in from 5 to 7 p.m. to take advantage of the 40 percent off cocktails, beer and wines. And though vodka is the specialty of the house, a fan of gin, bourbon or other liquor can find something to wet her whistle.
The vibe: Friendly and unpretentious. Bartenders and patrons happily chat with strangers.
The crowd: An assortment of locals, from construction workers from nearby loft projects to well-heeled cubicle dwellers letting off a little steam. A surprising number of girlfriends gather here to gab, celebrate and sip pretty cocktails.
Best seat: One of the stools along the granite bar. If that's full, the two-person tables along the window are quite nice. There's also outside seating for warm Oakland evenings.
Signature drink: A very "Sex and the City" drink selection from owner and house mixologist Mehdi Zarekari, with oodles of variations on the flavored vodka martini. The Raspberry Bubble ($8) - Champagne, Skyy vodka, Chambord and lemon - and Blueberry Lemon Drop ($7), a mix of blueberry-infused vodka, triple sec and lemon, served with a blueberry, are oft-ordered drinks. The bar also moves many a mojito ($7) as well as Blue Martinis ($6), a concoction of vodka and Blue Curacao so blue it hurts.
Killer app: Appetizers, such as the tea-smoked Z House Ribs ($10.50) and spicy sauteed garlic prawns ($10.50), tend to rule the bar dining.

Montclair Bistro
Californian, Mediterranean
6118 Medau Place, Oakland, CA, 94611
|
|
The Montclair Bistro is tucked into the wooded hillside in the affluent area of the Oakland Hills. Built in 1948, the style of the building is French provincial with much attention paid to detail-from the weather vane atop the peaked roof, the half-timbering, to the weathered bricks along the walls and pathways. Inside, discreet artwork on speckled walls in tones of soft leaf green and butterscotch, unobtrusive dark carpeting, comfortable chairs upholstered in a soft, dark fabric, and white linen-and-butcher-paper-covered tables create an intimate, homelike setting. Montclair Bistro brings upscale California cuisine and a casually elegant decor and service to the table. The wine list features over 150 varieties and regionals, displayed in a climate controlled wine room. Philosophy: Metrix Cuisine- "A synergy between the food on the table, the art on the walls, and the ambience of the restaurant. The result is a feeling of comfort and harmony between the art, ambience, and food.
