Cafe Ohlone

19 Restaurants Where You Can Eat Indigenous Food In The U.S. - The Infatuation

"Cafe Ohlone is on a hiatus until mid-January. They’ll release the next reservations on December 15. Cafe Ohlone is run out of the Hearst Museum at UC Berkeley, and is the only Ohlone restaurant in the world. The cafe celebrates the life and culture of Ohlone peoples, in a space designed with native plants that are incorporated into the meal, trees with speakers that sing in Chochenyo language, and murals from Indigenous artists. The food itself incorporates ingredients historically found in the area, such as San Francisco Bay dungeness crab, Olympia oysters, and black oak acorns. Cafe Ohlone does weekly tea hours, lunches, dinners, and brunches, but you’ll need to purchase your ticket in advance." - anne cruz
