Creekwood Restaurant

Amazing spot for dinner! Host and server were both so friendly and attentive. The burrata starter with pistachio and blood orange was light and refreshing. The fried chicken sandwich and pork shoulder mains were flavorful and high quality. Flourless chocolate cake to top off the meal! Non-alcoholic beers available as well as other draft or wine options.

Make reservations if possible ahead of time. Fyi I have never heard of this place until today. The moment I saw a reservation system, small seating, and a corkage fee. I was like, this sounds very familiar.. I once worked at a restaurant like this in the city. But let's talk about the food: I tried the Gnocchi, the pesto, and pine nuts one , it was good. I am very curious about the pizzas. Definitely will try their pizzas next time. Had a garden salad, and it was very fresh. I tried their meatballs, and it was very tasty, I must say. Limited parking, if you are not early. I can't imagine what it would be like when it is busy. If there is a designated parking area, please let me know. Restroom: one occupancy, but clean. Service: Attentative. I barely asked for refills of my water 💧 so that is a plus. Definitely will come back on pay day, though. Prices are $$$

We were delighted to come across this place. The wine selection is excellent. We had Brussels sprouts to start. Lasagna and scallops were fantastic. We were given had two glasses of port for dessert. The service was above and beyond. Thank you, Kevin! We will be back and bragging about this place to everyone!! Again, thank you!!

Important news flash: they do BRUNCH in addition to incredible dinners. I could write a whole post on how amazing and lovely this is as a date spot for dinner and how much I freaking love their salads and gluten free pizzas (possibly my favorite one in the bay), but this is about brunch. We had no idea they did brunch and when we looked at the menu for it online, it didn’t list any mains. But we went anyway and were blown away. I’m adding a pic of the actual brunch menu so you can see the real selection offered. Y’all, they have a BREAKFAST PIZZA and I promise it’s even better than you would imagine. Do you like breakfast? Do you like pizza? This is a heavenly chimera of two of life’s greatest joys. 👑🔥 Don’t sleep on the brunch! But also the perfect date spot. Get yourself a restaurant that can do both, and support local. The owner was there during our visit and went out of his way to create an excellent experience. Also, the patio is very dog friendly 🐶

Great place with a good atmosphere. Met the proprietor who uses his mom's carrot cake receipe - delectable. Everything was delicious. Had the burrata to start, pork chop, pappadella, ribeye, and salmon. Carrot cake for dessert😋

Great food and service. Got the spring mix salad - solid, meatballs - great, fish - amazing.

The food was absolutely amazing! Paulo gave great service. I expected good food but this was great. You definitely will want to try this place out. I had the short ribs and the meatballs. I tried my friends pepperoni and sausage pizzas. My wife had the pasta and oysters. We absolutely loved everything!

Cute dining spot. Perfectly cooked crispy Brussels sprouts, crab ravioli. The classic pepperoni pizza is also very tasty.

I had a hard time deciding where to take a good friend for a very belated Birthday dinner on short notice and after a lot of back and forth I decided on Creekwood. It turned out to be a great decision! Our party had the Little Gems Salad, Burrata, Gnocchi, Cameroni, Wagyu Ribeye and the Corn & Broccolini Pizza. All of the items were between a very good to excellent at a reasonable price point. The show stopper to which my party of 4 agreed was the Gnocchi with Pesto. This was far and away the best Gnocchi I've ever had in my life.. The pesto and seared pillowy potato dumplings were mind blowingly delicious.. The 14oz Wagyu Ribeye at $68 is frankly a bargain in the bay area and something that can easily be shared by two people. The service at Creekwood was exemplary. Out server for the evening was polite, efficient and borderline telepathic... I'm already looking forward to my second visit... Keep up the Great Work Creekwood! 5 Stars All Day! PS: Corkage Fee is $30

Lovely and accommodating wait staff. I always appreciate an offer of a glass of wine when you're waiting to be seated. The good was delicious. Not sure what they put in this brussel sprouts but wow. Crisp and salty sweet. I had the burrata salad with citrus and cumquats. Disappointed in two tiny cut up cumquats and two bites of arugula. I asked the waiter for more greens and he accommodated easily and promptly. Everyone else at our table loved their food. My only complaint about the space is how loud it is. We were struggling to hear our dinner companions across the table.

Came here for dinner with three friends on a Saturday evening. Staff and Service: - Staff was friendly and we had a couple of different people making sure we had a good experience Food: Based on the service, I wanted to like this place more. There wasn't anything memorable about the dishes. - House Salad: this dish was basically a pile of spinach with limited dressing. - Little Gems Salad: this one was better and had more flavor - Wild Boar Sugo: the noodles were good, but this dish was salty overall - I appreciate that they had a few nonalcoholic drinks as well. The Bellini Peach Soda was tasty Miscellaneous: - Parking is available via local street parking - Reservations available - Heated outdoor seating available - Overall, a bit disappointed. It wasn't bad, but not great either.

On a whim, my family opted to dine here on the night of the Super Bowl; and, in true American fashion, the restaurant was barren with many would-be patrons busy spectating one of the biggest nights of gridiron football at home. After getting pretty much immediately seated, our waitress kindly took our orders and offered us still water for the table. The appetizers (Caesar salad and burrata) arrived pretty quickly. The Caesar salad, while pedestrian, was still good and delightfully yet mildly fishy with the anchovy dressing. The burrata was a measly portion, given the whopping $20 price tag, but, the candied kumquats and citrus slices that adorned the sides still paired nicely with the creamy cheese. For our entrees, we ordered the decadent Wagyu ribeye, a lasagna, and a blue cheese pizza. My gripe with the steak is that the bordelaise sauce drowned out the sumptuous, tender piece of meat, overwhelming an already rich cut with unnecessary flavor. Not a fan. The pizza was good but simply cannot contend with the abundance of great Bay Area pizzerias. I appreciated the heap of arugula that sat atop though. And, lastly, the lasagna was just okay but too mushy to see any discernible layers. Honestly, I probably won't return. The establishment touts an Opentable Diner's Choice award as well as a fairly high Yelp rating, but I'm not sure if I can attest to the accolades. The service was great though. We did joke that one waiter, rendered purposeless by the Superbowl-inflicted lack of customers, filled our waters every two minutes.

Came to Creekwood few weekends ago while I was in the area. This place was recommended by a friend that lives in the area and it did not disappoint! We made a quick reservation via OpenTable on a Saturday brunch around 11:45am. Parking wasn't too bad either and parked in the neighborhood area. My friends and I split the eggs Benedict, the sandwich and the Brussels sprouts! Everything was cooked to fresh and delicious!

Husband and I are in Berkeley for the night and took to Yelp to find a good place for dinner. Creekwood it was! We had a reservation for 7pm but arrived a bit early. We were greeted immediately by the owner who was happy to accommodate us right away. The place is small but the ambiance is great. Got a little loud at times but nothing that really bothered us. We decided on the golden beet salad, little gem salad, and the Italian sausage pizza. They asked if we'd like to have the salads out first, to which we said yes, and we requested a bit of extra char on the pizza. The salads were great. My husband liked his beet salad a lot and it ended up being too much to finish. My little gem salad was really good, and really different. The heads of lettuce were served whole, but they were tiny and super cute! There was probably 6-7 heads of little baby lettuce. It came with sliced fingerling potatoes, crispy pancetta, red onion, Parmesan, and a soft egg. So good!! The crème fraiche vinaigrette was different but very tasty. I really enjoyed that salad, though it was a bit of work to cut up each head of lettuce. Our pizza was a bit smallish but it was good. Our only complaint was that the dough they used was very bland and pretty lacking. But the sauce and sausage were really tasty. Service was very attentive throughout. Our water glasses never emptied and they were great about checking on us periodically. We definitely enjoyed our meal and I would happily return.

I have not been there since they are first opened. Went on saturday night dinner. 1) same nice decor, clean, modern look 2) Waitress is attentive and nice 3) Ordered Gaupacho cold tomatoes soup very tasty 4) ordered mushroom pizza, I have more high expectation, somehow, when they first opened, I felt their pizza is better than saturday. 5) ordered Gnocchi in pesto sauce, very tasty according to my husband. 6) dessert tiramishi's size is very big, good value.

The Creekwood manager was very flexible to accommodate our last minute party size changes. The service was excellent, attentive, and very patient while we waited for all of our party to arrive. We never felt rushed. We were celebrating our friend's 80th birthday and selected Creekwood due to the positive reviews on Yelp and OpenTable. I was looking for a place that was more personable, where we would be able to hear each other talking. Creekwood has a nice and varied menu. We decided to eat family style so that we could try a variety of dishes. We ordered PEI mussels, Burrata, Little Gems Salad, and Brussel Sprouts small dishes to start. The mussels were tender and flavorful. The Burrata was delicious and fresh. The brussel sprouts were perfectly prepared and was a generous portion. We ordered the Gnocchi large plate and the Mushroom pizza. The gnocchi was soft and pillowy and the basil pesto was devine. The mushroom pizza didn't disappoint either. I wished we could have tried more dishes! Thank you Creekwood for a memorable meal and evening!

First time at Creekwood today and everyone enjoyed their meals. Very easy to make a reservation via calling in. I came in with a group of 6 for my mom's bday and was greeted promptly by staff. We started with the Brussel sprouts and shishito peppers. I got the crab ravioli and they were nicely stuffed with crab. I tasted the pappardelle and next time would get this over the ravioli or try one of the pizzas. The flourless chocolate cake was great, light and not too sweet. The salted caramel and Oreo gelato were tasty as well. Service was nice but we didn't get checked on after all the food arrived. Indoor and outdoor seating available Street parking only

The food was really good 9/10, I ordered the cameroni & my bf ordered the lasagna. The lasagna is good but I've had better. The ambience is really cozy & dim but small inside. The service was great! Our waiters were very attentive & friendly.

#notveganfriendly If you are vegan, there's only a beet salad for you which is good thus the two stars! ( oh well minus the honey vinaigrette) the oat lattes are good but surprising that a fancier Bay area restaurant wouldn't support the vegans well

Amazing food choices, always fresh. Service was spectacular. They only serve local brewery beers and wine which is still very good. Ambiance was also very cozy and super welcoming.

The beet salad was great! The sausage pizza was very good. The little gem salad was very good. I'd come back. Nice ambiance and excellent service!

Ambiance is nice... calm and relaxed. Service is good, Food is exceptional!!! Ordered Burrata A+... tomatoes so fresh, cheese soft deliciousness and homemade rustic bread. Crispy Brussel sprouts B+....generous portion. Ravioli summer squash A- (2-3 minutes longer cooking time would have been perfect, sauce excellent) Mushroom Pappardelle... A+++, pasta fresh home made perfection, mushrooms, cream sauce fantastic. If I lived close this would be a regular visit. Excellent Food!!! Make reservations... there was a line and steady patrons.. full restaurant, but food came quickly.

My wife took me here for my birthday, as she knows I have an affinity for great Italian food; particularly, gnocchi. Creekwood did not disappoint! I got the gnocchi, but the server suggested the bolognese sauce instead which was a great choice. We also had a corn and asparagus pizza, which sounds strange but it might be the best pizza we've had together (or ever! Dessert was fantastic. Not overly sweet, but oh so tasty. We've only been twice, but it's become our first thought when thinking about a special date night spot.

Good food, pretty good service. We were there on a weeknight and they were busy! Seemed maybe a little understaffed on servers. However our server was very attentive and gracious. The meatballs were a standout in a delicious red sauce as well as the papardelle with mushrooms and cream sauce. Good wine list as well. nice spot for a date or to take special people. parking is available in the neighborhoods.

I noticed Creekwood as I was driving down Sacramento St. several weeks ago and thought it looked sleek and interesting so mentioned it to hubby and so Thursday evening, we were hungry and decided to walk in just before 6pm. It wasn't a problem to get a table. There were several people there, but definitely tables and the bar available. By the time we left, around 7:30, it was hoppin' and looked full up! Service was wonderful. I ordered Prosecco (perfect) and hubby ordered an IPA. We began drinking our drinks and the waiter came over to let hubby know that he made a mistake and brought him a different beer - so the next beer (the correct beer) was on the house. Hubby ordered halibut crudo to start, and I ordered the brussels sprouts. The crudo was simple and good. The brussels sprouts are "pistachio fried peppercorn praline" preparation. Honestly, we didn't taste any of those flavors, but that said, they were delicious and I'd order them again. For the main I ordered the halibut main dish and it was exactly as you'd expect and good. Hubby got the pappardelle and liked it very much. What we really enjoyed was the warm environment, the friendly service, and the multiple options of items we could order...especially me, being pescatarian. This could definitely become our go-to comfort place. So yeah, we'll definitely be back!

Yesterday, I had a such wonderful dinner at the restaurant. The risotto with a grilled scallops was delicious, full of flavor and freshly prepared. Waiters were really attentive to my GF request. Would definitely come there again when I am next time in Bay Area.

I appreciate that Creekwood takes reservations for weekend brunch. Restaurant was packed. We were seated immediately, service was quick and the food was great. We will definitely return for breakfast and brunch but the ambient noise level might be a bit too high for a nice dinner. Otherwise a very pleasant experience.

Delicious food and great service. Really loved the ambiance. We had small children in our party and felt they really accommodated us. The beet salad and pizza were amazing. Highly recommend

Creekwood is the hot and new sexy Italian spot smack dab between Bushrod/North Oak and SW Berk. Came by for a walk-in dinner with a good friend and we were lucky to score a table outdoors. Sounds like it's a spot where most people have reservations. We were flanked by tables of larger (3+) parties, and most people had delicious appetizers and gorgeous pizza's on their tables which made our mouths water instantly. They have a full drink menu on one side and food on the other--PAPER MENUS TOO! No QR, what a TBT pre-COVID times. We easily chose their mushroom pizza (Enoki) and their red-sauce fettucine with broccolini. Great choices for non-meat eats too, which was what we had! The flavors worked perfectly, the truffle mushroom was A VIBE so delicious and savory. The pizza crust is on the thinner side, almost like Naples style. I wish it came out hotter, and the texture was on the dry-er side. Their fettucine noodle was perfectly al dente and I love the uniqueness of a red sauce base. The ingredients are very fresh and we loved that service was so friendly and attentive without being obtrusive. Shoutout to the sweet gentlemen who kept refilling our waters. Of note, they're dog-friendly on their outdoor patio WITH warm overhead heaters! Outdoor seating is close to the street, but not too much so where you feel like a safety hazard. Parking is hit or miss, as you'll probably have to get residential parking, but it gets tough during dinnertime since you're vying for spots with the locals. Awesome spot for date night or gathering with your pals that gives a neighborhood/"down the street" feel with a pinch of elevated aesthetic.

Just tried Creekwood for dinner, and it's excellent! The vibe is relaxed, nothing over-the-top, and the food is just really good. Everything tastes like they really know what they're doing without making it a big production. The staff was super cool and easygoing, which added to the whole feel of the place. Very good restaurant all around! We can't wait to try the brunch!

What a cute little place. We got a bunch of things to share and the hits were burrata and little gem salad. We shared the margarita, prosciutto, and a corn & asparagus pizza. I know the corn one sounds weird but it was pretty good. They had great wines, we sat outside, and service was lovely. Worth trying if you are in the area.

My Sister and I had traveled from Las Vegas for a Family Holiday Dinner, we arrived on Saturday evening December 21,2024 tired and ravenous after a wonderful road trip. My son lived in the neighborhood and recommended Creekwood Restaurant on Sacramento Street in Berkeley; however upon entering were met with an unwelcoming attitude from reception(she was engaged with a co-worker and not fully engaged with us) we were seated, our initial server was pleasant and we ordered, however "Miss Negative " served our meal. I was pleased with my meal however my Sister ordered Wagu steak and charged for premium beef and served sub-par beef. Beware African American customers it appears our dollars are not welcome here.

A hidden gem of a restaurant with delicious food. Crisp crunchy brussels sprouts with a delicious sweetness. My my black cod fish was prepared perfectly. The fish was tender not over cooked. The burrata had a sweet surprise with a delicately fried squash blossom, which pair of perfectly with a Buratta. Be sure to have a monster slice of the carrot cake. After speaking with the owner, I found out this is his mothers personal recipe, which makes this dessert even more special. Earlier dining ensures a quieter ambience and fun to see the sunset from the big picture windows.

Exce$&@%#llent! They got everything right! A gem in an unsuspecting neighborhood! A restaurant that knows their salt and shishito peppers has my vote!

Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Food was good. We ordered the crab ravioli which is offered as an appetizer with 3 raviolis or dinner entree with 5 raviolis. Pretty good and came with plenty of sauce which we actually ended up using as a dipping sauce for our pizza. Just wish this dish had a little kick. That would have nudged my rating from a 4 to a 5! The pizza was good as well. We ordered the prosciutto di san Daniele pizza which came with mozzarella, Parmesan, lots of arugula and lemon zest. I think the sauce base was olive oil maybe? Which made the pizza feel light, not to heavy as we were eating it. Little gem salad was probably my favorite dish of the 3 we ordered. Was perfectly coated with the crème fraught vin dressing. The pancetta bits provided a nice touch of saltiness to each bite. I think I would order this appetizer again next time. Service was great and so was the ambiance.

We are recent transplants from LA and searching for something like our old Special Occasion spot, Pizzeria Il Fico. We made a reservation for New Year's Eve at Creekwood. The only available seating was outside, but it was warm and comfortable, and had just the vibe we were hoping for. Contemporary, welcoming and lively. Every seat was filled. The New Year's Eve menu included items we wanted to try : gnocchi with pesto and lamb shank. We also shared the butternut squash soup and the green gems salad. The food was amazing. I even took the leftover pesto sauce home to have with my own gnocchi. Service was very attentive, even though we could see that everyone was rushing. Seating on the patio was quite warm, on a cold night. We can't wait to visit again and try the Italian dishes on their menu. Would love to see eggplant involtini, but based on our experience tonight, whatever we find, I'm sure it will be wonderful.

Came here for an anniversary on a Sunday evening. We were pleased to see several groups of friends and family enjoying their glasses of wine. I must say this place is great and very tentative. The staff knows well how to tend to their clients. The gnocchi is scrumptious, with notes of pesto and an explosion of ricotta cheese. The gnocchi itself is a miniature pillow filled with greatness with every bite. Definetely a serotonin boost while eating this plate. The ribeye, scalloped potatoes and heirloom carrots made for a tasty plate. The ribeye was cooked to perfection, every cut was like slicing into butter. It was a great pairing with the beurre rouge. I was very fascinated with the taste. Great hidden gem on the outskirts of Berkeley.

My go to for local comfort food. Always get the mushroom pappardelle and the little gem salad. The pork chop was my favorite but it's seasonal so not in the menu at this moment. Service is always friendly!!

I went for the first time and had dinner here yesterday. It had been on my list and I'm glad I finally tried it. I made a reservation at 730 on open table and I'm glad I did. The reservation was easy to get on the same day but they were also very busy. The host sat us right away, the server was kind and the food came fairly quickly. We ordered the meatballs to start and they were good, just a little salty. Then I ordered the short rib and my boyfriend ordered the ribeye. Both were perfectly coooked and incredibly tasty. We were too full for dessert but I look forward to coming back and trying more things soon!

the food was good no complaints I requested the fettuccine with a white sauce Instead of red. you could taste the distinct flavors it tasted like it was made with a white white crab ravioli were very light the muscle sauce was also very light on flavor it tasted like a cream butter service was was prompt they were crowded about an hour after opening but the wait was not long I loved the wine selection as well

This place is always delivers good food and the service was also good. The beet salad had tons of beets and I took it home and made another salad the next day. This is a great neighborhood place.

2 stars, I really wanted to like this place but it just wasn't good. Side of fries 5/5: this was the only good thing I got. The fries were perfectly crisp on the outside and soft on the side. It also came with what I believe is a garlic aioli which paired perfectly. Hands down the best fries I've ever had! Ribeye 1/5: the meat was so fatty, and had this awful sauce poured all over it. When the dish came out, it was visually unappealing and unfortunately it tasted as bad as it looked. There was no crust on the steak, it tasted like it was boiled. The best thing about this dish was the crispy fingerling potatoes as the side. Flourless chocolate cake 3/5: this was just okay. Super chocolately and rich. It tasted like an average brownie. The sodas here are really crisp sorta like McDonald's and the fries are great. However everything else fell short. Also while I was here, someone( I believe the manager) accidentally knocked something over and had a poor attitude about it to his employees. I could overhear the entire conversation and it didn't give me a good impression. For the price, the quality isn't there and the food is below average.

Just enjoyed our first (but not last!) visit to Creekwood before a show at Berkeley Rep. The location is a bit unexpected but the ambiance and vibe is just perfect. We went on a Friday night and it was packed inside and out. The food was amazing and portions are huge! You can easily fill up on the small (not small) plates at the beginning of the menu. We tried the Brussels sprouts and the beet salad to start. Both were very tasty. We also had a pizza and the papardelle with mushrooms. The pizza was simple, crispy and perfectly charred. The pasta was amazing too. Can't wait to go back!

Wonderful service and great food. There are no italian food choices in Emeryville so we took a short ride into South Berkeley to find this cozy eatery with homemade pastas. All yummy. (pasta could use a bit more salt in the water- but that was just my personal preference) Waiter/owner was friendly. Highly recommend almond cake dessert.

Our family had dinner on sunday night and were underwhelmed by the service. We were seated for over 15 minutes before our server came by. I asked if the fries that came w/my burger could be subbed for any kind of vegetable - when the food arrived no veg, just fries. The other server dropped off our food when it was ready - our waiter came by about 2/3 through the meal to see if we needed anything. Once we received our bill, he'd entered my glass of wine incorrectly resulting in a higher charge. It was an overall disappointing experience.

If you enjoy perfectly cooked/al dente pasta, Creekwood is the spot for you! They were crazy busy at 7:45pm on a Saturday, and it looked like they were completely packed- reservations are highly recommended, or coming in early. Luckily, they were still allowing takeout orders on Toast, and it was about a 30 minute wait for an order placed at 7:15pm. My order was ready when I arrived, and I tried their Cameroni (Pork Sausage Ragu, Broccolini, Pecorino, $25, https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=kWjRkEZ0chDHZMKq8sxYnA&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg), which was very flavorful. I really enjoyed the combination of ingredients, and their pasta seemed fresh- recommended! I would come back to try their pizzas as well as the burrata, rib eye, cheese burger, and fried chicken sandwich. I believe only indoor seating was available. Parking in this area is difficult, and there didn't seem to be much street parking available at that time.

We have been driving by this place for years and finally decided to give it a try and it did not disappoint. Our server Paulo was amazing. He gave great recommendations and was quick to check on us after our food arrived. We had the Brussels sprouts, pork chop and a cameroni ragu. Everything was great. Paulo brought us out a Calabrian chili paste for the pasta and with a bit of additional salt the dish was an absolute home run. The Brussels were nice and crispy, but could have used a hit of lemon juice or something acidic (they were still good without). The pork chop was absolutely massive and the morel sauce that came with it was rich and decadent. For dessert we were feeling pretty full due to the generous portions of all of the dishes we had so we went for the blood orange sorbeto which was a perfect way to end the meal. We saw the carrot cake get delivered to the table next to us as we were wrapping up and knew immediately we have to come back to try it. We chatted with the owner Greg for awhile. He was extremely personable and gave us insights into all of the food. Apparently he also makes all of the desserts. If you're reading this do yourself a favor and give this place a try. It's an absolute gem.

My boyfriend and I came in for dinner during a busy rush. We were thinking about turning away to eat elsewhere, but the manager was very accommodating and sat us down at their high top area in less than 10 minutes. He ordered us our first round of drinks, as well as our appetizers while our server was greeting other tables. Because it was busy, we had to sit shoulder to shoulder alongside other people, but we aren't too picky about that. The ambiance is very intimate, perfect for date night, however it can be a little loud when busy due to larger parties. We were then greeted by our server who was the sweetest young lady ever (I didn't get her name) and she guided us through the menu and gave us her recommendations. We ended up ordering the margherita pizza and the prosciutto pizza.. shook. These pizzas were amazing. Thin crust, delicious sauce, fresh ingredients.. and not to mention their chocolate molten cake for dessert was the perfect end to our meal. My boyfriend said this spot makes the best margherita pizzas he has ever tried.. go try it out!

Our second visit and so yummy. I had the pasta with asparagus and mushrooms and My partner had an amazing burger. On top of this we ran into friends! Make sure to try soon.

My friend decided to bring me here which I was excited because I wanted to try this place for so long. Upon arriving the place was fairly empty which was fine because I had a toddler dining with me lol. The waiter was friendly & accommodating. I posted the ribs which wasn't good! It lacked flavor & was tough to chew. I was disappointed! I probably won't be going back no time soon!

Our thanks to Yelp reviewers for helping us find this place and for recommending some of the menu items we enjoyed the most, like the Brussel sprouts, pizza, gnocchi, beet salad, and carrot cake, Lots of great choices, and what made them stand out was fine ingredients and perfect preparation. The service is as cordial as it is attentive, leaving us with the feeling of having a night out while being treated as guests in someone's home. It was an extraordinary experience from beginning to end.

Went there for the first time last night. Full disclosure, it took 15 minutes for us to have a server check in after we were seated, but they were apologetic and made up for this with good service from then on. Great kids menu (though the kids pepperoni pizza is the same price as the adults' for some reason), but I was absolutely blown away by the quality of the hamburger! I'm a huge burger fan, but my primary focus is the flavor of the meat. I love them medium rare, and I get them plain with just cheese so I can really experience the quality of the meat. Most restaurants have frozen patties, that are impossible to cook medium rare with any sort of quality. So I was blown away when my burger came out perfectly medium rare and had an incredible amount of flavor. Juicy, but not too fatty and definitely not too greasy. One of the best burgers I've ever had in the Bay Area, and I'll definitely be back, because they have a great thing going here and the entire family was happy with their meals! Bravo.

Superb! Splendid! Savory! All of these words come to mind when I think of "Creekwood." From the rack of lamb to the mushroom pizza, everything is PRO-FESSHIN-NAL. Trust. The rack of lamb comes out tender, juicy, and covered in flavor. No, the lamb itself is not overwhelmed by the additives. The meat practically slides off the bones. Do not hesitate to grab one of the racks and do a cheers with your date, meaning tapping your respective rib bones together. It may not be classy but it is affirming. And then there is the mushroom pizza with the gluten-free crust. Sure, you may not be into mushrooms like me but the pizza is undeniably good. That thin crust with that real cheese---finger licking good. And yes, I brought my lactose-intolerance pills, so I came prepared to feast. Once again, this place is the real deal. Take that special somebody here.

Food was amazing!!!!! I would recommend this place if you're in the area and want to try something different and new. Love the interior nice and beautiful. Everything on the menu was great.

Been here for dinner a couple of times recently. Some street parking on Sacramento and in the adjoining neighborhood, but not as much as you would think. Nice restaurant with good service. I love the casual but nice ambiance. I'd eat here again for sure.

This small restaurant in Berkeley was definitely a hidden gem. The prices compared well to other similar restaurants in the Berkeley area, but their food does outshine many other Italian restaurants I've had in the area. The meatballs were a great appetizer to start and came with bread. All the entrees, particularly the Cameroni were very good. Their pasta tastes handmade and is cooked al dente. My favorite part of the meal was trying the Green Tea Panna Cotta, which I thought was a very unique thing to have on the menu. In addition, it also tasted great but I wish you could taste the green tea a little more.

Always hits the spot. Creekwood is a lovely neighborhood restaurant that serves consistent quality and yummy traditional Italian dishes. If there is a Bolognese on the menu, I will always order it. This one always takes me by surprise, no matter how many times I eat it. Great spot if you are looking for delicious Italian food in Berkeley!
