Burdell is a Soul Food restaurant in the Temescal neighborhood of Oakland from James Beard Finalist, Chef Geoff Davis.
Named for and inspired by his maternal grandmother, Burdell, the restaurant reflects her love for well-set tables, entertaining guests, shared meals, and laughter. Burdell is centered on nostalgia, family recipes, thoughtful and sustainable sourcing, and the forgotten impact of Black farming, ranching, fishing, foraging, and culture on American cuisine and hospitality.
The menu highlights farmers and artisans harvesting and creating excellent products around us. Paired with the food is a robust list of wine and beverages from producers around the World-focusing on wines that are farmed and crafted with care and sustainable practices.

OpenTable美食編輯: Fine dining vet and James Beard finalist Geoff Davis returns to his roots with this totally fresh take on California soul food. Expect iconic dishes like barbecue shrimp and boiled peanuts alongside heirloom tomato salads and slow-simmered collards. The retro design and vintage plates make every meal here feel like Sunday supper with family—no wonder Food & Wine named Burdell its 2024 restaurant of the year.
Our friend, Intu-on Kornnawong, is coming to do our first grandma series of 2025 on Sunday, March 16th!
Chef Intu-on Kornnawong’s Isaan Thai-California cuisine is both a journey and a destination. Born in Udon Thani, she grew up savoring her parents’ incredible dishes—her dad’s Larb Ped, her mom’s Nam Prik—before bringing those flavors to life in San Francisco. She honed her skills in top Thai kitchens, trained under Michelin-starred chefs, and found inspiration in California’s bounty while working with Jeremy Fox at Rustic Canyon. After helping launch Night + Market #3 and Jo’s Modern Thai, she’s now crafting her own concept, blending Thai drinking food with bold flavors and nostalgic bites from home. On the Menu:
Kanom Krok (Coconut Cake)
Namtok Plamuak (Squid Salad)
Khor Moo Yang (Grilled Pork Jowl) or Mok Pla (Steamed Cod)
Pandan Coconut Pudding
There is a strict 90-minute turn time for all party sizes to be able to accommodate everyone. Please note per person price is inclusive of taxes and 20% service charge. See you!

For parties of 7-9, your group will partake in our market-driven, multicourse Family Dinner Menu, instead of our regular a la carte menu. The price per person varies depending on what's on the menu for the week. Menu substitutions to this menu are politely declined. Kindly include any dietary restrictions on your reservation when booking so we can prepare appropriately for your visit (not all dietary restrictions may be accommodated).
We do charge a cancellation fee person of $90 per person for no-shows and late cancellations as we hold the physical space in our small restaurant in anticipation of your larger party. As with everything, we charge a 20% service charge that supports livable wages for all staff as well as healthcare.
