Nicely decorated, small but tasty menu, we had the wings, fries and Brussel sprouts which we couldn't stop eating. Our server was friendly and checked in often, only drawback was the seats at the tables were small and I asked for a booth to be more comfortable and they were unwilling to accommodate
Bright spacious space for a midday drink. The Ume Sawa was super tasty!
Unfortunately, the restaurant closed unexpectedly but did not notify me given that we had a reservation for that day. A courtesy notification would have been much appreciated.
I really wanted to love this place after walking by many times and seeing how packed it was, but unfortunately the food, drinks weren’t that great. I plan to go again to see if this was just a one off experience given the other great reviews.Drinks:My husband’s drink came out slightly like a smoothie, which wasn’t the drinks intent based on the manager’s reaction. He got a another standard drink instead and it wasn’t good.Food:We had a couple appetizers that looked rushed and tasted burned. Specifically the plantain wasn’t sweet and they were burned.Atmosphere:Looks great to be there for a major game/event. We went when it wasn’t as crowded and the music was so loud we couldn’t have a conversation.
My friend & I have been searching for another sports bar to check out in Oakland; one that'll cover basketball & soccer in particular. There are very few bars we know of that show soccer games, but we decided to take a chance and made a reservation at Mushin to watch the El Clásico. Here is a summary of our experience today:Ambiance - clean, classy, and feels like a party all at once with the DJ playing music in the background (mixture of 90s-00s hip-hop/R&B). The back area was reserved for a private party, which can be organized separately with staff for future social events. Plenty of TV screens throughout. It was pretty busy when we arrived at 12:45pm on a Sunday, so we were grateful for making the reservation ahead of time.Drinks - signature cocktails were distinct from each other & delicious. I had the caipirinha & Tap Tap cocktails (only one of which I could show, because the other I lovingly consumed right away), whereas my friend had a few IPAs. Prices are standard Bay Area-wise ($5-6 for beers, $10-15 for cocktails)Food - good, but limited. They do have a brunch menu which is separate from another I've seen online. Fried chicken & waffles were nice. If you're extremely hungry, I'd recommend eating elsewhere beforehand, as portions are small-medium at best.Service - the staff were very amicable and willing to accommodate our needs, whether it be changing the channels to our requested game, making friendly banter, or checking in on us to make sure everything was met despite how busy it was.Overall, our time here was fantastic! Needless to say, I will be coming back here again and bringing along other friends to share the same experience. But also because I'm awfully curious about this avocado margarita... Cheers!
Best chicken sandwich I ever had and great service and nice crowd
Mushin is the place to be! Booked a reservation for myself and three others. Final Four game was going on and the place was buzzin. We had to wait a few minutes for our table which was understandable considering the game. Once we were seated, we ordered essentially everything off the menu. Drinks and food were 10/10. A DJ took over around 10pm and once the Afrobeats started, it was a full blown party. We were very well taken care of by the owner, Baba. So happy to support a Black-owned business and hope that the establishment continues to thrive!
