Restaurants in Emeryville

“What a great surprise. The food was delicious, and the service was great. We look forward to trying the rest of the menu. I highly recommend the Loco Moco.”

“Amazing place, a bit unexpected when you drive by. Ihad great moments and made best friends. Cocktails are best in region! Try!”

“Let me tell y’all something this restaurant would not be what it is if it wasn’t for the waitress Sirena She is so welcoming soon as you walk in she greets you she fixes anything that’s wrong. She’s polite and she made me wanna come back again. She actually is the reason why I ordered extra food. I originally came in to try the chicken and waffles and grits I ordered that with regular grits and then I tasted my friends shrimp and grits and I ordered that too and steak fries to go. I don’t tip. I tipped her because her customer service was just extraordinary. I haven’t been to you guys since 2023 because I didn’t like the food but whatever cooks you have in there now they are on point so I will be back once a week. Thank you for your service. Sirena”

“rice pudding, cookies, borek,”

“Fantastic food and amazing service!!”

“Cute spot for a first date. Solid food, great staff and a mind numbing amount of beers on tap. The staff playlists are definitive deep cuts and current favorites.”

“5 stars. Amazing food from the lentil soup to dessert. Highly recommend.”

“I chose Tipsy Putt for our company party. We are a small residential construction company of 4- but even still, it was nice to be able to book a table and food in advance. It was better than I expected with the feel of a sports bar, but with mini golf and some stand up golf table games, a full arcade, a long bar and lots of seating. Service was great! We all enjoyed ourselves!”

“Great breakfast/lunch cafe, but coffee was ok.

Breakfast burrito, chai latte, and frittata on sesame bagel were phenomenal.

Value was OK.

Service was great and quick!”

“Our first visit but absolutely not our last! What delicious flavors! Everyone loved their desserts, the toppings are incredible (vegan hot fudge, vegan caramel, toasted almonds,) and we all left full and happy! Definitely stop in when you’re in the neighborhood!”

“Always enjoy our time!! The best food ever!!!!”

“😍Once I week I allow my self the indulgence of one of their amazing cookies. It's my cookie Friday treat. Soooooo good. Ya gotta try it!”

“great service and hospitality love there food will always come back .”

“Strong cider, strong playlist, staffed by legends.”

“Excellent food and customer service from the staff and owners Dave and Carol. Best red chicken curry and chili!”

“Just amazing. Pop-up street food doesn’t get better than this.”

“The pizza was everything 🥹🤤🧘🏿”

“Best diner food in the East Bay. Live music on second Friday of the month 6 to 8:30pm.”

“Located on the Bay Street Plaza in Emeryville, on the second floor next to Barnes and Nobles. Saucy Asian is a Korean fusion restaurant. It’s a trendy place and is pretty busy all the way to closing time. We came in today after shopping at the new Tokyo Central across the street for a late dinner. We ordered at 7:58pm and did not receive our food until 8:26pm which was quite long wait for what we ordered. There is some indoor seating as well as outdoor seating.

As for food we ordered:
- Saucy Asian Bowl
- Saucy Asian Fries
- Island Style Poke Bowl (combo: half tuna/half Salmon)

All the food were good, have no complaints, but have had better elsewhere. Overall, if we’re in the mood for their food, we would come back.”

“This Duetto (chicken pesto) sandwich is literally life-changing and the lattes are amazing. The lady who runs the cafe is the nicest person I have ever met and I come here everyday for lunch! Highly recommend 🥪🥙🍝☕️”

“The chicken empanada and mushroom empanada were delicious. Matcha latte was perfect. Sometimes they’re way too milky but this one has a good amount of matcha. Noel is super friendly. Great neighborhood spot.”

“Wynn Whisenhunt created a beautiful brewery with relaxing atmosphere inside and out. Go enjoy time with friends and family while enjoying really good beer. Prost! 🍻”

“super solid indian place with dishes from all over the country. everything we ordered was eaten with gusto and all leftovers consumed over next two days. vibrant scene around restaurant. highly recommended. :)”

“rode our bikes for some fresh french press... the best dark roast on the planet 🌎”

“We had dinner there tonight (3/14/24) for the first time and we will be back. Two of the most interesting and truly delicious sandwiches we have ever eaten. I can't remember what mine was called, but it had chicken (roasted perfectly), sauerkraut, cheese and other awesome stuff on a grilled rye bread that was excellent. My bride had the turkey sandwich and loved it. But the star of the show were the Tater Tots. Perfectly crisp with BBQ sauce to dip them in and then into some wonderful real bacon bits. Every tot stayed crisp from the first to the last. The meal was worth every penny and more. Get into the Alameda location and try it. You won't be sorry. PS: The only bad part for me is that we live in Seattle and won't be back down until May. But you can bet I will be eating here then.”

“Think what a great Thai restaurant should be? and Summer Summer is that!”

“Dennys and Jen Curtis as our waitress she was terrific chicken fried steak n eggs my favorite it was delicious. Jen was very pleasant her service outstanding we will be back”

“Supporting local business in Emeryville. Note that this place is on Christie opposite to FedEx, not inside the public market.

The noodles, while not the best pho in the bay area, they are decent. Both noodles they served came with delicious broth. Unlike many pho places, these didn't leave you with a dry mouth. Wish their beef can be softer and more tendered - that's the only (but critical) place to lose shine. You know - always room for improvement. Can't wait to come back and try their banh mi.”

“Chinatown can be a daunting place to dine in San Francisco due to its vast authentic cuisine which is unlike anything outside of China itself. I don’t speak or read any of the dialect, but somehow managed to order food and drink that was delicious. I’m pretty sure that we created much amusement for the other diners who were rather interested in the ‘foreigners’ selections. Hey, we’re tourists from the UK enjoying our adventures and are used to ridicule thanks to our lousy corrupt government, it was no big deal. Chinatown, great cuisine in very different surroundings. Highly recommended.”

“Una comida auténtica de los ancestros aztecas.una variación de moles”

“I always get the steak and prawn bowl with beans rice about cream and cheese because I'm simple like that which means picky. Prawns are big and seasoned so well. Always so tasty”

“Townhouse serves a standout cioppino—a deeply flavorful, tomato-based seafood stew loaded with fresh fish and shellfish. It’s one of my partner’s and my go-to dishes whenever we visit.”

“Service is quick. The grab and go salads are phenomenal. Variety of beverages in their fridge, everything from juices, seltzers, protein shakes, teas low calorie options. Be sure to check out their specials and soups. Had the chicken and vegs soup because i was under the weather and it was like a home styled chicken noodle soup (without noodles). Great low calorie option. They had a special on chicken marsala and it was soooo good.
They have a large menu to chose from for different dietary needs.
Absolutely love their green smoothie and breakfast burritos!”

“The pizza was amazing. It weighed like 3 LC pizzas. Fresh melt in your mouth gourmet pie. I could only eat 2 slices it was so filling and loaded with cheese! Mmmm!”

“this was my first time going I came for my birthday I had the best time ever the decorum,the atmosphere it was everything elegant and the meat the meat just kept coming It was great I recommend this place you will love it❤️”

“Booked Hong Kong East Ocean for my birthday dinner. I wanted to eat Salt and pepper crab. My reservation was at 8:39pm, it was very quiet on a Tuesday night. The venue reminded me to f a 90's wedding hall.. I ordered Ginger scallion crab because it was the only non spicy option besides steam crab;which was delicious and I ordered a beef and bell peppers dish w/steM rice.”

“Last night my husband, son and I went for dinner and, hands-down, it was fantastic! The restaurant is stylish and modern, the staff is super friendly and knowledgable and the food is delicious. You MUST try this place!”

“Such a great little store. The guy working here is a delight, and I got a decently sized pastrami sandwich for around $8-9. Soft and toasted bread with lots of pastrami, really nice pickles on the side. The guy also gave me free snacks. This genuinely made my entire day, trust that I will be returning”

“Best breakfast burrito I've ever had.”

“great food & great service!”

“Outdoor seating, yummy food, loved the collards.”

“thank you katsu sora Trinoma. maraming salamat din sa nag assist samin na si Claire. sobrang attentive and friendly.”

“Best tacos in Napa by far !”

“My wife and I visited this spot yesterday to enjoy their Happy Hour. The place is small, but perfect. They have outside seating as well. We sat at the bar. We were immediately greeted warmly.

We ordered the Summer drink and the Peach one (Both found on the menu). We ordered the Original burger with fried egg and avocado. It was delicious. The burger was big, flavorful and everything was cooked how I needed it to be (We shared the burger and small fries. It was enough for 2). We ordered more drinks: Chocolate martini (Not on the menu, but ask for it...so delicious), we had tequila shots and my wife had a Mezcal drink prepared by the bartender (Not on the menu, but it was tasty).

The bartender was funny, accomodating and amazing. So amazing that I did not even know he was the owner!! Lol.. his name is Mike. He such a cool down to earth dude. Like very personable.

I definitely reccomend this spot!”

“Good coffees, responsive customer service, reasonable prices compared to most online coffee sellers”

“Love this Starbucks!! One of my favorites. Staff is so nice and always friendly.”

“Really nice place. The food is really good and nice big portions. The servers are really friendly and the cook (Nayeli) is amazing and super accommodating with our order.”

“La mejor comida peruana!!!! Delicioso sazón y excelente lugar Sus alfajores, una delicia 😋!”

“The overall experience was amazing, but the uniqueness of each individual flavor really made it an exceptional experience. I first tried this in March but now want to see if April's flavors have any hidden delights.”

“He's currently open summer hours, Monday thru Saturday, 10am to 5pm. Shortens hours and maybe closed Saturdays during winter when days are shorter. Friendly service, great dogs. ?? CASH ONLY.”

“Looks like it’s the best Five Guys I’ve been to in the US: guy who cleans really makes his best to keep the place clean (it’s so hard when people are messy with peanuts), small place and feels safe, welcoming stuff, wheelchair accessible . Gave me a feel like I’m in Five Guys in Europe, not in the US.”

“lemon and chocolate chocolate chip are the bomb my 1st time. I will definitely be going again”

“Perfect the best burger 🍔 I’ve had in awhile real burger yes yes I could of kissed the cook hell he owner for building this place keep up the awesome work thanks and those garlic fries were freaking amazing 😻 and the drinks 🥤👍🏾👍🏾✌🏾✌🏾🔥🔥🔥🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾💪🏾😘💯”

“We got the classic menu with wagyu beef, short rib, cuttlefish, black tiger shrimp, and quail eggs. Very high quality ingredients and tasty, especially the shrimp and short rib. Be careful with the sichuan broth - it’s quite spicy.”

“Fantastic place! Chris was so kind, he was knowledgeable and keen on learning more, great conversationalist and created a comfortable atmosphere. Can't wait to visit again!”

“Healthy & freshly pressed juices, cold brew/nitro coffee, nut mylks & Super power elixirs!!”

“I was rushed and had very little time. I was greeted and my lunch was taken. And quickly prepared, great service excellent food and a got to my appointment on time. 👍🏻”

“Just as I remember it without the Hauf Brau, but still good super clean and friendly. I have to come here and get the Chinese food which is what I used to always get.”

“This spot is definitely your old school neighborhood bar where everyone knows each other. I was there for a bday celebration.... it was cool for a random eveing. They had kareoke and one pool table. Cocktails seemed to ok for the crowd; no quality wine selections for me so it was a dry night. Overall the music made it was enjoyable.”

“Beth is a GENIUS! Our cake (Almond sponge with fresh summer berries) was simple and elegant but so freakin tasty. A highlight of our wedding that I did not expect <3”

“Consistent, kind, and delicious. Been working on the street they're parked on for a long while and the thing I'll miss most about this job ending is grabbing a top notch burrito whenever I want.Only recently tried a breakfast burrito and it was so good.Currently eating a carne asada burrito with just beans and salsa and I could not be happier.Support these good folks!”

“Love their ramen, meat is tender and flavorful as well as their broths. Love them in WC and so happy they're in Emeryville now! Ask for the house made hot paste. So good!”

“Inside was clean, I got the beef mini meal and replaced the macaroni salad with rice, the food cane with rice, bbq beef, and vegetables (cabbage and broccoli) the food was so good that I picked out the broccoli and ate it on its own, and I hate broccoli, so that shows how good it was”

“I love their Spicy Pork Burrito. One of the best burritos I have had in the Bay Area. Pineapple Agua Fresca was so good and I could say it was freshly squeezed! I will be a regular customer and recommend this place strongly!”

“Great “mini” burger but mini is a misnomer”

“This place has been around since I was a young kid at Emery Middle School in 2003. Good times. I used to always come here with friends and eat food, it’s really good! Having returned to the Bay Area recently, I wanted to see if the place was the same as when I used to come there mind you the economy was better in the 2000s. Their food is really good and the tacos I had with carne asada were amazing! The horchata as well. I recommend this place. California has the best Mexican food! Truly”

“Romantic atmosphere. I am happy to check in here.”

“We love stopping at Dipped for a sweet treat! Their caramel apples are always fresh, tasty, and perfectly made. The staff is polite and friendly, which makes each visit easy and enjoyable.

It’s become a fun stop for my kids on the way home — they get excited every time. Great local dessert spot if you’re in the Bay Street area!”

“Excellent curry tikka masala tho I was looking for something more like coconut chicken I guess. Maybe he has that. They have all the spices down. The onion naan was served hot from the tandoor and is fluffy and joyous, saving some for later.”

“the gyros are great, next time i will try the chickpea gyro...go ...eat. enjoy”

“This was my first time at this location. I didn't know that it was here until I left a nearby business. I would say that I enjoy Togo's sandwiches the most since they quality and quantity is excellent. I enjoy seeing my sandwich prepared in front of me that way I can request more or less vegetables. The staff is friendly and helpful if you have any questions.”

“I Am Now Having 2 Ice Cream Flavors Of My Choice. Chocolate Chip & Chocolate Fudge.”

“A great place to take a (mini) break.”

“We placed the orders online and picked ithem up in the store. When the scheduled pickup time arrrived, the app told me the orders were ready. But when we got there, the food was not ready, and we ended up waiting for about 10 min. The timing could definitely use some improvement.

I ordered the salad bowl, the portion was generous, and the ingredients were freash.”

“ordered it online and the pickup process was so convenient and easy and it was kept hot in their high tech little pickup storage locker!! it was actually so delicious especially for the price i was so surprised and elated!! love little caesar!!!!!! thank you for the yummy pizza!!!!!!❤️❤️❤️”

“The young man (#006) who served me on 9/9/25 was unusually polite, considerate and extremely helpful. It was quite unexpected. Subway food is not very different one store from another. Differences among stores are mostly location and customer service. The latter is usually either ok or subpar at Subway. Some stores charge extra for toasting and won't allow the use of gift card, can hardly speak English, and sometimes are downright rude. How refreshing to be served by this wonderful young man who patiently responded to my requests, always with a smile. I regret not getting his name, he is tall, a big guy, young and so friendly. Thank you.”

“Great potential. Pastrami was amazing and the pour over was solid!

It had just opened when I went, the flow in the kitchen was a work in progress with having to do so many pour overs at once. I would have just gotten a drip coffee or americano if they had that option.

Seating is minimal and the decor was also a work in progress with minimal seating.

A much needed addition to the neighborhood and tremendous potential with the talent that the owner has. I look forward to seeing it grow and improve.”

“if you happened to be in the area for some shopping or whatever, they are a great vegan option in the market area. we got some tortas and ate them to fast to even get a picture. the taco flight sounded too good to pass up Updated from previous review on 2026-01-26”

“Got the chicken katsu curry with brown rice. The portion size was big, I couldn't finish the rice. The curry was good and had a good kick at spice level 2. Chicken katsu was cooked perfectly. Friendly staff.”
