Homestead

Oakland


Homestead has an ever-shifting menu of farm to table goodness ranging from grilled ribeye and sweet potatoes to summer squash risotto – honestly, the menu is flexible, but it's also consistently good. It does excellent wine pairings, and work service charges into the pricing so servers don't have to rely on tips.
