Butterjoint is a comfy bar and restaurant located in North Oakland. Our welcoming and eclectic atmosphere is appropriate for almost any occasion - whether it be meeting a friend for a drink, celebrating an important event, or relaxing after work. Our menu is a mixture of familiar Pittsburgh foods (think pierogies, hamburgers, French fries) and French bistro classics (beef tartare, raclette, mussels), and seasonal classics that come and go throughout the year. We put care into our vegetarian dishes too, including making our own tempeh, falafel, and veggie patties from scratch. Menu items change frequently--usually every day--and reflect many long-standing relationships we have with farms and breweries in our region. In addition to reservations, we also have a thirty seat bar that is first come, first serve. We don’t know exactly how old the bar is, but it’s at least seventy years old (probably older) and very cozy. Our friendly bartenders are here to make something you like.

    Everything was perfect! From the cocktails to the Karaage it was top notch! Service was excellent. It was a bar atmosphere so expected to be a little bit louder where we sat anyways. Still very intimate and able to hear each other very well. Sushi was fresh and tasted amazing. We did the Nigiri plate added the Otaro and scallops. Scallops were so good. We ordered more. Brownie dessert was excellent.

    The service was excellent. The waitress was extremely friendly. It was hard to hear her due to the close quarters and loud conversations. The food was good ( not great). Everything was tasty perhaps some things were too seasoned. I think they are trying to overpower the food with flavor and it goes a little too far. Still good food but the “ richness” can make it beyond what you expect. I would go again for the shrimp, and service. Maybe put some ear plugs in.
