Sasha MaksutenkoSeptember 17, 2011Try the Snozzberry-rasberries, vodka, lime, ginger liquor. Flawless.
SamOctober 20, 2012Cool vibe but way too loud. People are shouting to hear each other over one another. Additionally, drinks, while good, take a while to get.
Craig BernsteinNovember 18, 2013Kitchen closed before 7:30 on a show night at the Fox? Go fuck yourselves.
Don't order a Long Island. I feel like I'm being punished for ordering a mixed drink.
Emmy AliceApril 22, 2013No one here smiles! Somehow they made baci ball gloomy. Dreary place filled with snobs.

The name "Make Westing" comes from a short story by Oakland native Jack London. While a bit grim and violent, the tale centers on the overwhelming need to make the westing wind back home to Oakland - to a place of warmth and family (and bocce courts?).
