Geoff Davis to open 'Uncle's' steakhouse in former Wood Tavern space

Geoff Davis, acclaimed chef of Burdell, is taking over the former Wood Tavern space in Rockridge, Oakland, for a casual steakhouse called 'Uncle's'. This is a major development for the East Bay dining scene, turning a notable closure into a promising new opening. The concept is expected to be more approachable than Burdell.
