Best Romantic Restaurants in Kensington

They open a back room on Friday and Saturday and it was quiet! Our server was prompt at figuring out our needs. The food was excellent and the coffee surprisingly good.

The food was fantastic. The drink and the glass of red wine recommended by our server were impeccable. Our server was very attentive and helpful, with a happy demeanor, one of the best I can recall in many years. Grazie. Staff filled my request for seating away from the front door. We had a wonderful, festive time with friends, and we will return. Soon.

Solid food and wine list. I've been here several times and always love the terrific choices for appetizers and entrees alike. And dessert! The crumbled baklava with ice cream was a great way to end a very nice meal.

Delicious pizzas and salads and the roasted Brussels sprouts are especially good. And the restaurant felt festive. We are so happy that 3.14 is back!

Via del Corso has become a favorite spot of ours over the past few years; first as we visited Berkeley, and now as we’ve become residents. One of our top choices when hosting out of town guests. The restaurant delivers a consistent dining experience with a menu reflecting the freshest of ingredients available. You will always find reliable standbys, such as Mary’s Chicken Breast, on the menu. In addition, a fine selection of house-made pastas, meat and fish entrees; not to mention vegetarian options. As we often do, my wife and I sat at the chef’s counter, allowing us to observe the meal preparation. Tonight we went with the swordfish entree, which was excellent. We never hesitate to quiz our server about their recommendations; they tend to be spot-on. It is refreshing to find a restaurant that has earned a reputation for treating their staff well; obvious by the very low turnover amongst the chefs and servers. We’ll return again and again!
