What a menu & the goods were better than the description! Rare! Outstanding discovery for our first of many future visits! Spinach Salad, with a citrus but not too sweet dressing, fruit, top sirloin, volume and hearty! New favorite place! We took a table in the bar(loud); next time dining room).

We had a fantastic dining experience! A big thank you to Jessica, Naseer, and our wonderful waitress for their warm hospitality. The food was absolutely delicious, and the customer service was outstanding from start to finish. I truly appreciated the friendly atmosphere and attention to detail can’t wait to come back!

We drove an hour and a half to eat here, and it was absolutely worth it! We tried the Dino ribs, beef ribs, hot wings, and a cheeseburger with bacon, and everything was outstanding. The ribs were tender and full of flavor, the wings had just the right amount of heat, and the burger was juicy with the bacon adding the perfect touch.

On top of the amazing food, the service was excellent — friendly, attentive, and welcoming from start to finish. It’s rare to find a place that gets both food and service so right, but this spot really delivered. We’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to friends!

Amazing breakfast in the heart of Castro Valley. All menu items are cooked to perfection and are served throughout the day. I recommend this family friendly establishment.

Great place for breakfast & kid friendly too!! (Review was from years ago)

I went just recently for my birthday & despite having made a reservation they called saying they might not have a table inside for us. I specifically wanted an indoor table for easibility for a handicap member of our party. This caused unnecessary stress when I should have been relaxing getting ready to enjoy my birthday lunch celebration. A nice touch that I've seen other restaurants/places do is ask if anyone is celebrating anything. My son happened to see on the kids menu a complementary ice cream scoop for him but it would have been nice since it was my actual birthday that day. Lastly the host that seated us was awesome (I'd give him 5 stars) but I wish I could say the same for the server (2 stars). A few members of my party said the server seemed like she hates her job. When asking for an additional chair for someone we were waiting on she gave the impression that we were inconveniencing her which was disappointing.

The food, host person, & atmosphere are all worth going back!!

The food was good, the service was decent a little mix up on the orders and at the time there was one server. It was still a good experience.

I had been craving for smoked meat and came across this amazing Halal place in Castro Valley. Ordered brisket sandwiches and they were just amazingly great. I would highly recommend this in place. The owner himself came and checked on us. The staff and service was also excellent.

Great service. I got the burger. It had no sauce so I thought it was dry, but our kind server got us some ketchup mayo

Good food, fast and friendly service. Will visit again next time I am in the area.

Excellent breakfast and bloody Mary's. They are always so kind there too! It's a staple for a reason. 🩷

The service was great, the food arrived quickly, exactly as ordered.
Price is fair especially considering how good the food was and the server was right there to make sure you have everything you need and top off the coffee before you run out.

Just discovered this place! Love the food and the service here. Incredible value for price as well. Definitely coming again!
