Take out is all good. Excellent service. Fresh food. Seating is sometimes limited on weekends.
Friendly, chilled a far cry from the city. Enjoyed my visit, and i will come back.
Nice inside interior,the waiters are really friendly and welcoming, when you walk in a waiter gives you a menu and leads you to a table the wait time isn't too long and the food is delicious and good size portions overall 10/10 š
The plates were delish. Gotta try that pancake soufflĆ© or it wasnāt real!
Great food and vibes 100% worth the wait
Whatās up with the Betteās To Go staff? Even before Bette retired thereās an older lady working the counter who has a perpetual frown and sour attitude to match. A striking contrast to the very friendly wait staff at the diner next door
Food consistently delicious , staff always friendly to all⦠love love love ..
Very old fashion diner, the Asian salad I got was not even fresh. Service was cold and plain too, just like the food. It is something I would consider āgoodā if it is in the middle of a rural area.
Some people just donāt know how to run a business.
This is a To-Go lunch spot adjacent to the Oceanview Diner. It's basically an entire separate restaurant with a different kitchen. I work on Fourth Street, and this my go-to place for lunch. I used to do Market Hall, but the food here is better and the prices are better, pretty reasonable for the bay. You can get a satisfying meal for ~$10 and a good snack for $5. They do a few things really well. All the prepared dishes from the glass case I've tried have been great. Some staples include lentils & feta, chicken salad, potato salad, and there's always a daily special that's been tasty every time I've tried it. You can also combo the mixed greens salad (+ tomatoes, pickled red onion, and dressing) with one of the prepared dishes, which makes for a light and fresh lunch. The middle eastern combo (hummus, greens, pita, dolmas, veggies) is a lot of food and a good deal; the empanadas are great for a snack, and you get some fresh homemade chimichurri with them. The "burrito" is kind of funny (you get two little burritos) but it's cheap and tasty. Tuna toast is a good snack as well. Last but not least, the baked goods are bomb. As I understand it, they have a few different bakers who come in and contribute to the pastry case. All the cookies and cakes I've had have been delicious. The lemon pistachio shortbread, brown sugar shortbread, lemon cake all transport me to a childhood I didn't know I had. All in all, the output of this place is truly impressive. There are so many different little elements to the lunch offerings, and everything appears to be homemade, even the pickles! I don't know how they manage it and run a full-on diner next door, but I'm grateful for it. It's got a locals-only vibe and can be pretty hectic at the lunch rush, but that shouldn't deter you. Also, you don't necessarily have to take it "to-go"; there's two high tops inside and some seating out front.

Got a black and white cookie- it was inedible. Betteās are usually good. Icing was poorly made.
Excellent sandwiches. I don't need to remind anyone of that. However, their coffee is TERRIBLE. It literally tastes like burnt toast, it's grainy, and it's served so hot you have to wait a half hour to drink it.This place is perfect as long as you bring your own coffee.
Best pizza Iāve ever had
They open early...Nice friendly staffGreat treats
Apathetic and slow service--actually, borderline unfriendly and I am not a difficult customer. I have worked in the service industry. When I did, I made a point of greeting customers with warmth and friendliness. I just wanted a breakfast sandwich, did not make any special requests. I didn't mind the long waiting around for a single sandwich as much as I minded the bad attitude of the person who took my order. The sandwich was AH-MAZING. Seriously...sssssooooo delicious. So kudos to the chef. Would have been 5 stars if not for the surly service.
