Farm-to-BARTable in the East Bay
Celebrating local seasonal ingredients is no new thing to the East Bay, which has been a focal point for mindful eating of fresh organic harvests since Alice Waters opened her monumental Chez Panisse in Berkeley in 1971. From California cuisine to internationally influenced recipes, farm-to-table restaurants are now serving sustainably grown produce, meats and more, pleasing well-honed palates on both sides of the bridge.
Dig into feasts made from veggies dug out of the ground in these parts and bask in the benefits of having local farmers in our region. Whether casual family-owned restaurant or chic dining is your date-night plan, these BARTable restaurants have locavores lingering in the East Bay.

Casual restaurant dining or takeout comes in the form of health-minded salsas and south-of-the-border cuisine at Jorge Saldana’s Cancun Sabor Mexicano.
