Driving by on Gilman Street you might not even notice Lalime's, nestled as it is in a residential neighborhood many blocks away from Berkeley's "Gourmet Ghetto" and miles away from the bright lights of downtown San Francisco. Yet, for 26 years it has been serving up some of California's best cuisine and has gained a reputation for combining classic and innovative dishes engineered from organic, locally procured ingredients.
A neighborhood restaurant for the lucky few and a destination for others, Lalime's thrives on a base of a very loyal, appreciative customers while it thrills and delights newcomers who discover it for the first time.
Chef Brian White is on a never-ending mission to explore the cultinary vastness of not just California but of Italy, France, Lebanon and many other far-flung cultural meccas. This is why people keep coming back; to eat at Lalime's is a never-ending adventure, it's like being in Tuscany Thursday night and back in Napa Valley on Friday.
Open for dinner only, except on special occasions, Lalime's is waiting to transport you from the strain of every day living to the tranquility of being somewhere special, somewhere where people care deeply about you. An extraordinary place where the food is always fabulous, the company engaging, and the atmosphere unbeatable.
If you haven't yet experienced Lalime's, there's something missing, something unfullfilled in your life.
You can correct this quite easily.
