Looking to bring a taste of Napa dining to the island of Alameda, these restauranteurs leased a space in the up-and-coming 'Alameda Point' neighborhood - i.e. the old Naval base. The newly renovated storehouse building provided an all concrete and steel palate. We wanted to honor the bones of the structure while adding warmth and comfort in all the right places. Walnut, leather and indoor plants soften the industrial feel. A laser-cut stainless steel bartop gives a nod to the nautical and mechanical history abound. A forthcoming outdoor dining area, also designed by Drafting Cafe, will open in Spring of 2024.
