Fodor's Expert Review Mägo

$$$$ Oakland Dinner

After several years as a leading chef in San Francisco, Mark Liberman crossed the Bay Bridge to open this deeply personal restaurant that channels his Colombian heritage in a contemporary way. There are two tasting menus available—a long and a short. Both start with an arepa course (like cornmeal pancakes) and then weave their way through a series of intricate compositions that are never overly elaborate and often lean on produce from nearby farms.
