Let me start by saying that I really had high hopes for this place upon entering. I came here for my friend's birthday dinner, the vibes were definitely vibing with the DJ and inviting/entertaining layout. The hopes died there. Once seated we checked the menu for drinks where we saw that we should order our drinks at the bar. But why?! We appeased the request and went to the bar to order our drinks. It took 20 minutes to get 3 drinks, and it wasn't even packed! There were a decent amount of people, but not nearly the volume to constitute waiting that long. We texted our friend back at the table to put in our dinner orders since it was taking so long. We all ordered the oxtail Rasta pasta, I also ordered the deviled eggs to start. The deviled eggs were a big miss, it was just too salty! And for someone who loves salt, this was too much, even for me! Someone ordered parm fries (but they were out so we got Cajun fries instead) and the wings flight. Wings were just ok. Not bad, but far from great.Half of the table received their food, those who ordered the Rasta pasta didn't receive our meals until 30 min after everyone else received theirs! The food runner was so nice, she kept giving us updates on our food, letting us know there was only one person in the back making that dish and they were backed up. We flagged our server down to see if he could help, he explained it was our fault we placed the food order separately and that's why the Rasta pasta was taking so long. We explained 5 minute different doesn't constitute this long of an additional wait time, especially since the food runner actually told us what the issue was. Rude. When the food came out there were 3 tough pieces of meat, nothing tender about those oxtails at all! The pasta had great flavor, but it wasn't a Rasta pasta. It was a pasta with cheese and noodles, but I've never had a Rasta pasta with sun dried tomatoes in it. Different cuisines! All of our drinks were empty so we contemplated whether we wanted to wait for the drinks again. I asked the server if we really had to go to the bar to order, he said, no we didn't have to go to the bar but it will take longer if we ordered it through him since the bartenders are new. Make it make sense! You're our server, and I'm serving myself! At the end of the night he took off the Rasta pastas off the bill, which I'm glad because it definitely wasn't worth it. Despite the fact he took off 3 meals, out of 6, and all cocktails were ordered and paid for at the bar, the bill was still $300!!! I'm still at a lost as to how that was the case, but I was so over it at the end of the night we paid and left. In all, the food was decent, the customer service was not good, but the vibes were there. I'd come back to sit at the bar, but no way I can entertain a seated dinner.

Would give this a half star if I could. Went there yesterday for a reservation at 6:00PM. 10 minutes, nothing 15, nothing 45 NOTHING not even someone coming to us with updates not even an acknowledgment that we had been there for 55+ minutes past our reservation time. I approached someone "man we really behind, we got like 15 people to sit. Idk when you'll get seated but ima figure it out" Listen: I'm not your homie. I'm a potential paying guest who was looking to have dinner before a concert at the FOX theatre. This place was TERRIBLE. Concert started at 7. 7 came and we were no where near getting a table. Lobby is FULL of people at this point. Many parties of 2 were sat and we were a party of 4. Two two tops easily can be pushed together to make 4 or even offer a split to get us seated. We as a group were really looking forward to eating here. But the lack of hospitality and sheer neglect for their guests lost us. We walked 2 blocks in a freaking windstorm to a Thai restaurant and thank god they were absolutely amazing. Pierre Pierre yall suck.

Let me start by saying the service was amazing, 10/10. PD went above and beyond to ensure that our party enjoyed our experience. Matt was also very helpful and accommodating. Good vibes all around.This black owned restaurant is located in the old Oakland Tribune building. It has a spacious layout and with a nice, simple decor. Plenty of seating is available in the waiting area, a nice bar, and good music. I came for a birthday dinner and our drinks were really good! My favorite was the strawberry lemon drop. I had the lamb chops with whipped mashed potatoes. The chops were tender but the flavor was just okay. Everything else I tried was good. I would come back to try another entree.

Despite the mixed reviews, my boyfriend and I really wanted to check this place out and we came prepared knowing that the service could be hit or miss. First impression ... you walk in and immediately see the half circle bar and a wall lined with couches. A cute and vibey area to wait before being seated - they also had a DJ the Friday night we went. Despite having a reservation we had to wait a good 15-20 minutes to get seated. Once seated at the table, I was surprised that the menus looked like a school craft project ... scalloped edges made by those craft scissors ... laminated ... and strangely small. It looked like a dessert menu or an after thought. Service was surprisingly reasonable - food didn't take long at all. But looking at other pictures on yelp, their portions and plating are WILDLY inconsistent. We ordered the steak, Brussel sprouts, surf n turf Mac n cheese, 2 glasses of wine and cheesecake dessert. There wasn't anything to really brag about. Not the best, but definitely not the worst either. Steak was perfectly cooked, my boyfriend really liked the Mac. I wish the Brussel sprouts were on a plate and not a bowl because they eventually lost their crispy fry and became soggy. If I were to come back I'd likely go to the bar with my girls or come after work for a night cap. I say check them out at least once. Show this local business some love. They definitely have some kinks to work out and once they do ... this place has so much potential!

Birthday Dinner Gone WrongI debated whether to share this experience, as my intention is never to harm a business. However, my disappointment and frustration with my visit to Pierre Pierre compel me to provide feedback.My best friend and her boyfriend planned this dinner to celebrate my 31st birthday. While we were seated fairly quickly, it took over 10 minutes to order drinks and receive water. To my surprise, the restaurant had run out of all beer and iced tea by 7 PM on a Sunday. Upon reading other reviews, it seems this is a recurring issue that has yet to be resolved.After another 15-minute wait, we ordered appetizers. We opted for the flight of wings to sample different flavors. Unfortunately, two varieties tasted nearly identical, with the only distinction being a powdery topping on one. The third wing was unappetizing, with an odd gray-green appearance and too many competing flavors.Next, we received the "truffle fries," which were soft and lacked any discernible truffle flavor. I kindly asked if they could be remade to be crispier and requested ketchup, which never arrived. After waiting another 15 minutes, the fries were brought back, but the quality was still disappointing. For a restaurant at this price point, I was shocked to see it serve what appeared to be generic Kraft ranch dressing--a significant letdown.The service throughout the evening felt rushed and dismissive. The waitress frequently sped by, asking, "You good?" without waiting for a response. This behavior felt unprofessional and inattentive.We ultimately decided to end our dining experience early. We spoke with what I assume was the manager, who was incredibly kind and understanding. We canceled our main courses, and he offered us complimentary cheesecake and later, a round of shots. We accepted the latter, which was a nice gesture.Before leaving, however, the waitress made an odd and offensive comment, asking if I was a Capricorn. When I said yes, she replied, "Oh, yes, I get it. I'm the same way; us Capricorns are different." My friends and I found the comment perplexing. To top it off, they sang "Happy Birthday" with a candle on a plate, awkwardly referring to me as "Capricorn." The whole interaction was bizarre. Additionally, the bill was incorrect twice before being resolved.On a positive note, the restaurant has a nice ambiance, and the busboys were friendly and attentive. I also appreciated the manager's efforts to address the situation. However, based on my experience, I don't plan to return.That said, I always encourage others to try places for themselves--you may have a better experience. If you decide to visit, I recommend going earlier in the evening to avoid issues with limited drink availability. Best of luck to this business.

*******BLACK OWNED BUSINESS ALERT*******I made an unplanned trip to Pierre Pierre to celebrate a birthday. It was a late reservation that we got to early. They were not ready for us but we were able to pull up to the bar and chill. I am just going to say the service there is like no other, I promise. Fuqn Awesome Service. First it is always great to be in a place that's for us by us!! The DJ was doing his thang, folks were out looking good and having a good time. It's a vibe. The drinks were decent. I really enjoyed the Pierre Pierre Side Car. It was purple. Cute. The food was good. A couple of dishes were sent back by the birthday girl but what I had was flavorful. Listen, I always say go try for yourself. My review is to get you in the door. This place is definitely on the list for a go to place in the Town, and this is coming from someone from the City. Bon Appetite!

Ok so I had been seeing the Tik Tok's regarding this hot new spot in Oakland so I decided to come check it out! Made a reservation and upon arriving we waited! We waited for about 30 minutes and finally was seated! I'll say the theme of the night was waited! After getting our table we again waited about ten minutes before our waiter came and took our drink and order! Since we were picking up on the waiting vibe we made sure we knew what we wanted by the time he came. We went with the flight of wings, deviled eggs, I had the ribeye and my wife ordered the lamb chops! I ordered a club soda with lime. And once again we waited! Our waiter told me the bar was backed up and that's why I waited again for my drink! It was just a club soda!!The appetizers came out rather quickly. The wings were decent I couldn't really differentiate between two of the flavors the actually tasted similar the crack wings and another kind! Tasted like sweet chili. The wings were ok, I'd give em a 6 outta 10. Now the deviled eggs on the other hand they were pretty darn good. I do recommend 8 outta 10.The ribeye was really good nice crust cook to my preferred temperature! I did not taste the lamb chops but my wife said they were really good also! For dessert we shared the Bischoff crust peanut butter cheesecake. The only complaint I had about it was it could've been left to sit out for a little before serving to soften up that crust but otherwise that thing was OFF THE HOOK!! Now I'm reading the reviews one thing that came up in a lot of them was the wait! If you come here you may experience the regular restaurant wait times as we watched some tables around us get there food quickly but others appeared to have to wait like us! But wait time aside I enjoyed the experience other than the Warriors playing like crap as I waited for everything at the restaurant!!
