   The best experience I’ve had ever eating food ❤️ the team takes great care in what they do, and every dish was so well played in terms of a sensory journey.

   As expected, impeccable, friendly service. Beverage program (cocktails/wine) was outstanding. The food was quite good, but flavors and textures felt somewhat repetitive over the courses, and never really blew us away. With a final check of over $1000 for two, the creativity of the menu didn't feel quite up to the par of the bill or of other coursed places in the area. While Mago (across the street) doesn't have the same level of polish (obviously) or as robust beverage pairing, I feel like it outshines Commis when it comes to inventive, interesting cuisine. It was nice to knock this off the list, but if I do come back, it'll be for the bar menu.

   Superbly done on every level. From cocktails to Prix Fixe, all flavors are original, balanced, and pair wonderfully with wine. I cannot wait to go back.

   Overall a quiet (3.5-point) disappointing food experience (Feb 2025 menu). Service was good, no complaint. Servers were nice enough to help me pack my unfinished dishes. Had the full tasting menu and portion overall as same shared feeling with other reviews. First four courses are fine (three small bites, raw fish appetizer, caviar and daikan radish, and slow poached egg yolk with bread). But the main courses of the Feb 2025 menu was unsatisfactory. The steamed sole was accompanied with tasteless/no flavor beautifully green veggie sauce - which in my opinion could be cooked with shrimp sauce to add up the ocean/seafood flavor/feel to the sole fish. Scallop and its ham flavor sauce are good; but not sure what the foam-ish food on the left side was trying to convey. The sausage was creative and acceptable;but the duck piece had skin with thick layer of fat not cooked well (tastes like eating fat directly, disgusting) and there were a lot of meat fascia not removed (hard to chew; the worst medium /medium rare kind of meat I had).What was the purpose of having the warmed prune?If a plate cleanser, then it’s better be cold. If to add flavor,plz make it a jam-hard to chew.Rice pot and sweets are fine(especially like the last three small bites). Except for jasmine ice cream (I like the ice cream itself), the chef could possibly consider remove the either the bitter grapefruit skin taste jelly on the top or the sour pomelo meat on the side - because with all together, this desert has too many flavors (sweet, bitter and sour all together, tasting weirdly like biting the pomelo without peeling). If I have to go again, I would pick the short bar table menu - includes majority of the acceptable or tasty appetizers but not that many unpredictable main courses. Overall, unlikely to go again because the performance of the menu was unstable to me. Sincerely (no offense) recommend the chef to take time to job shadow/learn Beijing/Cantonese roasted duck or French duck cooking skills.

   Great restaurant and good value for a Michelin 2 star. The Sommelier (Andrew) is particularly good

   Three chefs having a celebration dinner together- exceptional experience. We all enjoyed all aspects. Wine pairings were amazing and paid homage to the food in unexpected ways.

   My wife and I are regulars at Commis, and every visit is a treat. The food is always outstanding, and the service is top-notch. A special highlight for us is the incredible wine selection, expertly curated by Andrew, the wine director. His pairings elevate every meal, making each visit even more memorable. Commis never disappoints, truly one of the best dining experiences in Oakland!
