“Taco Bell here has done some renovation and has hired better people. Ignore all the low star reviews, this Taco Bell has clearly gotten better as of 6/26/24 and the interior is now modern and clean

Vegetarian options: Great delicious options. I'm not even vegetarian, and I will still get a spicy potato taco or a cheesy been and rice burrito

Dietary restrictions: They offer clear labeling of sodium content and calorie count. There are clear options for people on a diet. And it's all delicious

Parking: Not too many spots, but there is usually a spot or 2 empty

Wheelchair accessibility: You can go right in. No stairs“

“Sooooooooooooooooooo delicious“

“Went midweek last week for lunch, first time. The falafel wrap was just outstanding. Big, moist, crunchy enough, savory. The gyro wrap was tasty but overall should have been better. The gyro meat was grey, skimpy portion, and it was chopped into cubes so the sandwich did not hold together enough to eat without it falling apart. The pitas are just right. Great easy-on-the-wallet addition to Montclair and we'll definitely go again for the falafel and to explore the rest of the menu.“

“Hands down best Gyro I’ve had since visiting Denmark. The seasoned fries paired with their ranch and smokey barbecue sauces were divine. The atmosphere is very friendly and the dine-in aesthetic was quaint. HIGHLY recommend OakTown Kabobs with my boy Farzad.“

“Food was delicious I never wrote reviews before but had to share my experience only thing I didn’t notice was if they had bell peppers to add on or jalapeños then would been 100 percent perfect. Service was good friendly guy in the front food came out fast and hot ❤️“

“Went on a little date with my lady to this place. We saw it on Bay Areas Check Please. The fried chicken sammich caught our eyes. Went on at about 2,….maybe? Was busy but was seated fairly quickly. We check out the menu while in line so knew what we were gettin. Noah, I believe, was the waiter fella(the reason I didn’t give that fifth star was cause after he took our order, we didn’t see him again). He was food came out not soon after we ordered. Hella quick. I got the chicken(breast/wing) and waffle with sweet potato butter. FIRE!!!. My lady got the chicken sandwich. MORE FIRE! To wash it down I got the brown sugar lemonade. JOHN BLAZE FIRE!!! Also there was a live dj spinnin on the 1’s and 2’s. Kind of a neo soulish vibe. Overall, it’s a dope spot. Nah’mean?!?! Forgot to mention that we shared the shrimp ‘n grits. My lady loved it. Once I dabbed a bit of Chrystal’s hot sauce on it, it became……FIRE!“

“After walking the ever so steep San Francisco Hills in this area on the way to China Town, I stumbled upon a quaint little food shop with a tiny little woman by the name of Jasmin.

Entering you are greeted so warmly and kindly.

Her restaurant is not so big. The menu is big and obvious with all the ingredients posted. She serves beer and the theme of the place is very nice.

After taking the order, she quickly hopped over to her cooking area and whipped out the order as quickly and efficiently as it could be. When I got there, a few people trailed right after me and she served them just as well she had her system down.

If you're in the area, I would highly suggest dropping by and picking up a quick bite at Jasmins. ?“

“If your on your lunch break then call your order in ... hole in the wall with great food .. make sure to ask for salt and pepper for your frys. If even remotely close and want a burger and fries this is your spot fries were so fresh darn near burnt my mouth which is soooo much different the. The room temp fries often served at drive thrus“

“Please Go here for their sandwiches!! Hands down one of theee BEST banh mi I’ve ever had anywhere in the US! Prices are super affordable and the amount of food you get is an awesome value! This family does a really great job, please support this local business! This is an order and take-out kind of business, don’t go with expectations of table service, but do expect to get a really great loaded banh mi at a really good price!“

“The food and service at Slider Buns is fantastic! The staff is super welcoming and friendly and efficient and there is a super affordable lunch special available ($12 for a burger, fries, and drink) weekdays. Great comfort food (burgers, fried food, etc.)“

“Leuk tentje waar we heerlijk hebben gegeten. Met veel vegan opties was het even kiezen! Als aanrader hebben we beide een homemade juice op. Ananas en meloen en die smaakte beide verrukkelijk! De nacho's en guacamole waren ook erg lekker en alles werd mooi opgediend! Aanrader als je in SF bent! Updated from previous review on 2025-07-17“

“Definitely San Francisco Bay areas. Best burgers, amazing fish and chips very favorable, savory kebabs and great tasting Gyros.“

“Dude. It's In-n-Out. What more can I say? Just Do It!“

“The best Vietnamese food in the Bay Area! Prices are excellent. Get the Number 5 to sample everything. I would come here at least one a week if I lived nearby! Order to go if you don’t want to sit in the tiny 10-person space. The food is worth it!“

“It was a drive thru, so take the atmosphere rating w a grain of salt. As a vegetarian, I don't come here often, but I drive through the tunnel several times a day and there is only so long one can resist the scrumptious smell of fried onions and all of the animal style goodness.
So, I joined the long line and grabbed a grilled cheese animal style, along with some fries and a drink.
The guy taking my order was patient, friendly, and thorough. The person taking my money was cheerful and smiling. The person giving me the food double checked to make sure I was being given the correct order and was friendly and kind.
The grilled cheese and all of the toppings is hit the spot. The fries were on the salty side, and the drink had the perfect balance of beverage and ice.
If you eat meat, your experience will likely be better, since there are so many additional options.
Go on the earlier side or risk getting in line directly out of the tunnel (stay in the farthest right lane).
Enjoy!“

“Fantastic steak burrito, best bang for your buck in downtown Oakland!“

“Really good chicken! We bought The G Meal plus some sides which was enough for 2 people. The chicken was crispy and delicious. However, their fries were soft and their mac and cheese quite firm and a little cold when we got it. Their Texas Toast was okay, but not sure I understood the idea of ​​having it with chicken.“

“Inspired this new business by accident while looking for food. It is authentic Korean street food. The Korean hot dog was crunchy and delicious, we order the 2 half mozzarella and half sausage and it was perfect. My friend had the ttetbokki and it was creamy and spicy. This will be our go to spot for Korean hot dog.“

“Fantastic lunch spot! Healthy and tasty at the same time, with many different fresh veggies. They also have many interesting kombucha flavors which is a unique experience. Comfortable and nicely decorated interior. Service was nice and helpful too. Would come back.“

“The food, drinks, staff and atmosphere was excellent. This is my nephews favorite spot. Thanks Kelly for our family outing today.“

“Great food and great prices. You will have to wait but for the amount of food you’re getting, it’s a good deal. They also know how to season their food.
My favorites are the burgers, chicken tenders, and Philly Cheesesteak (with everything on it). And their fries are often fresh and crispy!

Ask for extra BBQ sauce, it’s made in house

—— Update 2 years later

Still my go to spot. They don’t sell their BBQ sauce anymore but God do I miss it. They also have added chicken and waffles to the menu!“

“This place was recommended to me by my sister, who loves Boba. Wow! Just WOW! It is my first time getting Boba here, and I like it compared to others. Their Boba is cook to perfection 👌.

I got strawberry macha with Boba, and it's absolutely the best strawberry macha out these. SO YUMMY. You can taste the freshness. Thank you.

This is one of those small businesses that we need to support.

Thanks 😊 for serving goodness 😍“

“The food and staff was excellent and the portions were large. Would recommend to anyone in the area. Just maybe mark a few parking spaces with their name.“

“Best fast casual Japanese food in the city! Ever since visiting Japan at the beginning of last year, I haven’t been able to find any casual Japanese food I really like in California until this place. I got the custom bowl with eel, imitation crab, and teriyaki tofu for protein and a mixed base of salad and rice. It was super satisfying for dinner on a rainy day, and I felt full but not heavy. The portion size was just right, and the ingredients were fresh and yummy.“

“Ok.. I just hit the jackpot with this Cafe'. I have been craving a hot pastrami sandwich for the longest time thinking the only place to satisfy my craving will be in New York until I gave Sweet Joanna’s a try. I was lucky to be there when one of the owners, Mr. Zaro, took my order and confidently assured me that their sandwiches are the best. He was not lying. I got the best looking layered sandwich of pastrami, cheese, pastrami, avocado, pastrami lettuce and tomatoes on a warm Dutch crunch. I had to take a photo of this master piece to post here. I was in heaven when I took the first bite. The bread, the cheese and pastrami were heated first, explained Mr. Zaro, then the other fixings were added. That way you get an amazing crunchy bread with warm pastrami, melted cheese and the fresh veggies. This place will be my first stop when I am in San Francisco. It is clean with friendly staff and a great service.“

“Decent food good price. Friendly.“

“Very good food and drinks 🥤“

“Heathly food. The Shawarma wrap it's my favorite. I love it!!!“

“Good selection with a lot of options and they don't disappoint. It was my son's 1st time and he loved it‼️“

“Great food and good costumer service“

“Chicken Tikka Masala (in a bowl, with white rice instead of brown) - The chicken could have stayed on the grill for an extra minute or two. The Tikka Masala curry was phenomenal - had the right spices, perfect amount of tomato sauce, and quite strong! The curry was contrasted with a white yogurt raita, which contrasted quite well with the umami-ness and the curry. Love the mints and cilantro, made it look very refreshing. The marinated and pickled cucumbers, I felt, had hints of sesame oil.

The pickled cabbages were a great addition to its refreshing dish. Overall, it was a great balance of the strong flavors of the curry and yogurt, and keeping the refreshing profile of the dish.

*I have had this multiple times. The pickling of the cabbage can be inconsistent. The white rice can sometimes be too soggy. The curry was pretty consistent throughout.

FINAL REMARKS: Would come here again for the aforementioned dish.“

“Great little spot with a nice interior, and space to eat there if you'd like. Staff is also super nice. Their tofu banh mi is great, and the portion sizes are plentiful -- I'm definitely full here, which often isn't the case at other banh mi places“

“I just discovered this GEM 💎✨
I was looking for a salad around Fruitvale and Ben’s Fast Food popped up in my search, it almost seemed to good to be true: healthy, balanced, fresh food and affordable??!!
Between the chicken mixed bowl and a cup of the dark chocolate cashew pudding I paid $14.22 with taxes. A few minutes after putting my order I got the notification that my food was ready for pick up. Parking was easy and my order was perfect: fresh, pickled, and steamed veggies, grains, tender and flavorful chicken and a creamy lemon thyme dressing. The pudding is decadent!
I will definitely be coming back!!
To Ben’s Fast Food: I only wish you gave an option to tip, I felt awful not tipping. Unless the employees make over $25 hr, please enable tips at check out 🙏🏾“

“I have heard about this restaurant from friends so I went to try it, it is a sit-eat-and-go place I have tried the Persian burger and it taste good it looks like a kafta kabab taste. As a Lebanese and food lover I was impressed with the hummus the taste was good but the Tabboule didn’t meet my expectations because you shouldn’t have cucumber and lettuce as also it needs more lemon juice.
It was a nice experience, and I would go again if got the chance.“

“I grew up in Omaha. I have a point. That is where the Ruben Sandwich was born. I moved away over 40 years ago and I have had mixed results finding a good Ruben Sandwich until I ordered one at the Red Onion. It was perfect. We will be going here more and more. Great food and friendly service.“

“I had the Chicken Mix Bowl with the smokey chipotle sauce and it was AMAZING. I am allergic to dairy, gluten, and soy so being able to not worry about that with my meal was so nice. I also have ARFID (avoidant restrictive food intake disorder) and have a really hard with certain textures, usually chicken is really hard for me to eat but I had no issues with this chicken!! The texture was consistent all the way through, pulled apart really easily, and was just overall amazing. The portions are really good and the food is very flavorful. I'm really happy with my meal. Thank you guys for the amazing food. I highly recommend this place!!“

“When you're in the mood for an old fashioned burger, this is the place to go. Classic burger with tons of flavor and I need to give credit to the man on the grill. He takes his time preparing the burger so you never get never get a sloppy burger, just quality and love that go into these burgers.“

“Always some of the best hot dogs that I know of. I usually get the hot link and/or the big quarter pound hot dog with all the trimmings, i.e., chopped onions and tomatoes, mustard, ketchup, relish, and occasionally jalapeno peppers. The employees are always very kind, courteous, and professional. I definitely recommend Caspers Hot Dogs if you like great hot dogs.

Parking: There is ample parking on the restaurant parking lot. I never have a problem parking there.“

“One of the best if not the best taco truck. From the flavors to the hefty plates pick anything off the menu and you will not be mad.Steak and prawn taco: must tryChicken and prawn tacos: must tryDrink: changes daily! Some days sweeter than others but always good.If you can it is best to go early because selling out is what they do and they do it fast.“

“Came here 3 days ago to try the food since I've constantly drove by and wanted to have a taste. I am super disappointed in my experience. The Hot dogs were like rubber and could tell they had been cooked hours before. There was barely any meat in the chili. I also was charged $147 instead of $14.70 by the manager Pat and she refused to refund me. I will never return or recommend anyone to go here.“

“Was walking by and decided to stop in- best fried chicken sandwiches in San Francisco! So good I had to stop by again later in the day, and somehow the sandwich had gotten even better! Do yourself a favor and stop in here. Good food, prices, and the service by Harry was superb!“

“The food was amazing, we tried the cheeseburger, the double cheeseburger and the chicken burger. Everything was perfectly prepared, you can see they make your order fresh every time and it is just delicious. Would recommend. 10/10. The prices are also justified.“

“Love the chocolate flan, I get it every time I am here“

“Ordered online and received the food immediately after arriving. I asked for a holder, and they took a box with a little bit of ketchup packets and emptied it and placed my drinks and food inside. The food itself was amazing, large portions, plenty of flavor. 10/10 would recommend.“

“The service at the Togo’s in Emeryville is truly outstanding. Whenever I go in and Michelle and Portia are there, they greet me with big smiles and make me feel right at home. Their service is fast and friendly, and no matter how my day is going, I leave there with a smile. Thank you Michelle and Portia for your great service!!“

“We stopped by the Carl's Jr on Marina Village Pkwy for a quick meal with the family. I'm a fan of their chicken sandwiches and really like how Carl's Jr makes it very consistent across their chain. The kids loved the chicken tenders and yummy fries. It was a good meal, and we appreciated how the workers made sure our order was perfect. Emily walked around the dining area with her drive-thru mic, and multi-tasked by taking care of everyone. She was very friendly and her smile was contagious. Thank you Carl's Jr Marina Village :)“

“This is My Daughter’s Favorite Restaurant.. We Go There Often. The Service is Quick and The Staff Is Friendly..“

“Good lamb burger. Quality of food is very good. BRING BACK THE DOOGH (yogurt drink). Falafel is not good on the Mediterranean Plate, a few crumbs instead of a proper falafel ball. Also bring the eggplant back. Should go back to the old menu items.“

“I absolutely love this place! I had the best fish sandwich I've had in a long time. I was just driving by when I noticed this restaurant, so I decided to stop and order their fish sandwich with a meal. They give you a bag full of fries, and everything was delicious. The sandwich was great, the fish was tasty, and the sauce was perfect—no complaints whatsoever.

I'm planning to go back very soon to try everything on the menu. I still need to sample their milkshakes and ice cream, but I didn't have a chance on this visit. Overall, the food I had was stunning. The fries were fresh, hot, and crispy, and I really appreciate how generous they are with the portion. I can't wait to go back!“
