   We had a group of 15 and our experience was wonderful. The overall ambience is gorgeous, inside and outside; the service is outstanding, and the food is all so delicious! The cocktails are creative and pretty too! A beautiful summer night outside with old friends. Just perfect!

   It was an awesome first date location, although the host did seat the party at different tables at first. It was easily corrected though

   As a family with 4 celiacs, we were so excited to see the many gluten-free options on the menu at Lovely Day. We weren't disappointed either because everything was delicious. The chicken schnitzel was especially good. In addition, there were great craft cocktails and wine. As a party of 8, we sat in what felt like a private party room. The room was set off from the main dining room and beautifully decorated. The service was great even with a large party. We with definitely go back and maybe try the nice outdoor seating next time!

   This is my second time there. The food is wonderful. The presentation is spot on too. The cocktails are fun. It's the service. If they could just get the timing down. I had to look for our server a few times to order appetizers and then the entrees. If they can not make the customer wait so long between courses then I'd give them a 5.

   Lovely DayResponded on June 21, 2022Thanks for trying us again. We've been working on this. Hope to see you one more time, and get it right!

   I'm a long-time fan of Grace Street, and and wanted to check out their new restaurant for a celebratory dinner I'm planning. It's perfect! The servers were all both incredibly friendly and efficient and the outdoor courtyard is casual and fun, with a distinct Oakland vibe. Oh, and the food was dee-lish! Reasonable prices. Can't wait for the event!

   Truly a lovely experience. Fine wait service, decadent foods. Only thing could use improvement is the seating. Cheapo picnic-type tables and benches were uncomfortable and looked like Ikea specials.

   Lovely DayResponded on June 21, 2022Thanks for the review! And we are working on the seating situation! As we've been growing and changing we are still figuring things out! We purchased new chairs this week and searching for more tables!

   I came to Lovely Day for a special going away dinner and everything we ordered was so good! We ordered most of the entrees to share and each had a seasonal cocktail. The presentation of everything was gorgeous, the patio was lovely for the weather, and our server was really friendly:)! Definitely recommend for special occasion or just a night out

    Wasn’t a great experience. Everything was ok but nothing noteworthy. Setting was a bit sterile (an event space feeling). They seemed understaffed. Food was below par. Could have been a off night for the place.

    Lovely Day has a really cool vibe and decor and the food was mostly great. I had the trout dish and my husband had the pork. Both were delicious! The table shared the polenta bites, pupusas and brussel sprouts for apps - all highly recommend. This was a bday dinner and the server brought out ice cream with a candle which was fun. The brownie sundae was on point but the vegan ice cream was meh and someone else at the table ordered the pound cake which was really dry (flavor was great just poor texture). All in all it was a fun time and our server was truly lovely. We will dine there again!

    Our waitress was excellent, as was all the food and drinks we ordered. The only thing that may put off some people is the walk under the freeway to get here from Temescal, with a homeless enclave, but fine once we turned the corner.

    We sat outside with our golden doodle with heaters away from the outside speakers/annoying music. Staff lovely and accommodating. The star food: polenta bits. Crisp, well seasoned and plentiful. Caesar salad, just ok, needed anchovies and s larger portion for the price. Spaghetti bolognese fine, nothing exceptional. The bummer was the rip off of the drink. My husband, who normally doesn’t drink, asked for something sweet. The waitress, Chelsea said he would like what she likes: a sparkling wine with elderflower. When the bill came they charged $16 for it! The bartender used J champagne—a waste for a mixed drink. I am truly offended that they did this. My drink, Paloma Royale was costly at $14, but delicious.

    We were able to reserve the main room for our small (24 person) wedding reception. The food was fantastic, and the ice cream sundae bar was a big hit with our guests (ages 10-75). The staff went above and beyond to set up a large table with linens and candles that made the space feel intimate for our group. My mother-in-law called our reception "elegant, but comfortable", which is exactly the vibe we were going for. Service was friendly and helpful, and not intrusive. Jen and the staff did a great job of accommodating needs and requests (picky eaters, nonalcoholic sparkling cider toasts, access to sound system). The bartender has been super attentive and skilled every time we've been in, and did a great job of helping guests find drinks that they would like. We highly recommend Lovely Day for private/semi-private events and look forward to celebrating here in the future! We would definitely use the space again for small/medium events.

    The food and cocktails were delicious, and I loved how many items on the menu were marked gluten-free, and how accommodating the server and kitchen were to my companions other dietary restrictions. We ate outside and the heaters were pumping, the patio is lovely, and the elevated BART tracks nearby add ambiance — although that last one probably isn't for everyone.

    This new restaurant is thriving! They were packed on a Friday night so I recommend making a reservation. The indoor space is spacious and elegant, while the outdoor space is more cozy and casual (each table has a heater which is great!). Each staff member was attentive and welcoming. The food was all delicious and came out hot and relatively quickly (read: not too fast). Will definitely return to Lovely Day and support this blossoming new business.
