Creekwood, a California-Italian restaurant that has brought new flavors to South Berkeley for almost six months, opened Nov. 20 after about six years of preparation, as first reported by Berkeleyside. Located on Sacramento Street, Creekwood has a 1,700-square-foot floor plan and can seat 50 guests indoors and another 20 outdoors on the patio, according to a press release.
“We wanted to be a neighborhood restaurant and have a casual, but nice place,” said Greg Poulios, the owner, who is also the current director of catering and dining at the International House on campus. Poulios and his business partner and childhood friend, Mark Louie, started working on the restaurant about six years ago, according to Poulios.
