Berkeley’s Best: The May Flower By ROY LETTIERI

Tuesday February 15, 2005

The May Flower 

2156 University Ave. 

883-9788 

 

I frequent many of the restaurants in the Downtown/University Avenue area and I believe the May Flower is a top notch option but unfortunately not well known because of a very discrete store front set back a bit from the street. 

The May Flower has excellent quality ingredients, good variety on the menu, very affordable pricing and a very clean, friendly professional ambiance. You will really like the owners/staff, a Chinese immigrant couple working exceptionally hard (seven days a week, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.) to stay in America and provide their young children with an opportunity to better themselves. 

Nice story, nice people, very good restaurant that deserves some attention from local diners looking for very good quality at a very fair price. I frequent the place once or twice a week and really enjoy my meals and speaking with the couple that runs the place.
