Cafe Colucci

I thought the food was awesome at Cafe Colucci at the Oakland/Berkeley border but the service left much to be desired.

Thus, my never returning to this lovely African eatery (west, I believe). I loved the raw beef minced and tossed in warm clarified spiced butter...like a twist on carpacio with some "umph" to it!

I also really enjoyed sitting outside with one of my best buds, Star, and sharing a great meal together. He had a salad that looked awesome and was too "hot" for my palate, but boy did I keep eying it the whole time he ate (lol).

I'd say give it a try...it could have been a simple miss on the service...but the food was really good!
