OurStory

Spinning Bones is a California rotisserie restaurant that specializes in roasted meats with bold flavors. The focus of the menu is slow roasted meats: poultry, pork and beef, rotating on spits over high heat, and basting in their own natural juices. The rest of the menu is comprised of shareable appetizers, vegetarian side dishes, and healthier salads with vegan dressings. The principle of the menu is straight-forward: quality products that are prepared minimally and cooked thoughtfully.

It’s a casual neighborhood restaurant in Alameda, open five days a week for sit-down dining and take-out, with brunch on weekends and large party catering. At heart it’s meant to be a common area — a place for people from Alameda and across the Bay Area to come together for conversation and camaraderie over great food and drink.
