On a trip to Oakland to visit
Simone and friends from days past, we hit up
Bar Jules and loved the vibe. Straight forward dishes with super fresh ingredients from small local farms and meat and fish from sustainable sources. The staff were friendly and the food delicious. We sat right up against the bar connected to the open kitchen and enjoyed watching our food being made by the friendly dude chefs.

| Always appreciate a daily menu that changes with the tides |
 |
| A nicely written short wine list for those seated at the bar ... amidst a Bar Jules club member. |
 |
| Spinach soup with créme fraiche |
 |
| Steak tartare in the Bar Jules fashion |
 |
| Preserved swordfish salad with new potatoes, celery hearts, piquillo peppers and aioli |
 |
| Great dollops of créme fraiche straight from the farm jar are the finishing touch to this spinach soup. I love dollops of things. |
 |
| A fragrant seafood stew with local Halibut, crab, manila clams, savoy cabbage, butternut squash, scallions, cream and thyme. Incredible. |
 |
| Wood grilled quail and garlic sausage with polenta and romanesco broccoli |
 |
| Check out the sweet cooking apparatus |
 |
| Chocolate Nemisis. Not my enemy. |
 |
| Apple and frangipane tart |

I'm a friend of Ed Fladung's, I saw your link on quality peoples. Good stuff. We were just up in SF and our friend who lives in Hayes Valley wanted to take us to Bar Jules, but it's closed on Mondays. We will for sure, thanks to this post, try to make it next time ;)
