"The team behind the lauded Berkeley bistro Chez Panisse is launching its next offshoot, Bar Panisse, on Thursday, Dec. 11. The San Francisco Chronicle reported that the bar will serve small plates, entrees and cocktails, and a draft menu submitted to the City of Berkeley includes snacks like fritto misto, housemade potato chips and duck liver mousse crostini, plus a spin on Chez Panisse's famous garden lettuce salad. A coy Instagram post announced that Bar Panisse is walk-in only; diners can expect service Thursday through"
"The bar is in the former location of César. In 2023, when Chez Panisse owner Alice Waters decided to end César's sublease after 24 years so she could take it over for her own concept, fans of the popular Spanish tapas restaurant protested. Three years have not healed the wounded César champions, either, judging from the emails Nosh receives on a regular basis."
"Bar Panisse's kitchen with be led by chef Amelia Telc, formerly of San Francisco's Tartine and New York City's Mission Chinese Food, and the drinks program was developed with Dylan O'Brien of Prizefighter Bar in Emeryville, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. Bar Panisse, 1515 Shattuck Ave. (at Vine St.), Berkeley"
Bar Panisse opens Dec. 11 at 1515 Shattuck Ave. in Berkeley, serving small plates, entrees and cocktails. A draft menu includes fritto misto, housemade potato chips, duck liver mousse crostini and a spin on the garden lettuce salad. Service is walk-in only, Thursday through Sunday evenings from 4–10 p.m. The bar occupies the former location of César; ending César's sublease in 2023 after 24 years prompted protests and ongoing disappointment from its fans. Amelia Telc will lead the kitchen and Dylan O'Brien developed the drinks program. Nearby, Cafe da Fonk opened with Berlin-inspired coffee, breakfast plates and schorle.
