“Great place for tapioca drinks! The blended/slushy honeydew with boba (which were tender) was flavorful. Their cinnamon roll was delicious AND the staff was friendly. We also got some lotto tickets since they also sold them (cash only). Would definitely come back again to try other drinks and snacks ??“
“Gran Milan is a must-visit destination for anyone craving a taste of Italy. With its delectable pastries, expertly brewed coffee, and warm hospitality, it's sure to leave a lasting impression on even the most discerning food lovers. Buon appetito!“
“This place is vibing! Delicious coffee, energetic atmosphere and also good space for connecting to internet and getting work done.I compare coffee shops based on the decaf oatmilk latte. It was dense, strong and flavorful.A great gem in East Bay. The staff were also very kind, friendly and cheerful.They also have some mixed tastes that I haven’t tried and would like to give it a shot next time!“
“Kicked it at Kaleidoscope Coffee in Point Richmond! It's not your typical coffee shop – during the day, it's a cozy spot for coffee and ice cream, and at night, it turns into a lively hangout with performances.Their menu is full of local goodies like Tara's Organic Ice Cream and Wrecking Ball Coffee. I tried their unique creations like beet hummus and indulged in Revolution Muffins and Bakin’ Vegan pastries – all delicious!The atmosphere is buzzing with energy and community spirit. Kaleidoscope Coffee is definitely a must-visit if you're in the area!“
“This is a fantastic venue for private parties or just hanging out and relaxing. The burgers are great! The MAC & Cheese is so good. A variety of assorted adult beverages menu changes weekly all items are tasty! Service is so friendly I recommend Hopulent, Vallejo CA a great end of week & weekend hangout. Good food, good friends good fun!“
“My wife and I are from a small town south of Houston and let me tell you this place is the real deal. The food is amazing and the service is excellent. Thank you Momo’s for the great experience see you Saturday.Parking: Easy parkingKid-friendliness: Plenty of options for the kids“
“Nice, quiet ambiance. There was only one waitress on duty. She answered the phones, seated guests, took orders, served food, and helped a lost insta cart driver trying to pick up at the wrong restaurant. She did all this with a smile and great, friendly customer service. The joy omlet was very tasty with large portions. The homemade bread was served hot and fresh with a dollip of melting butter on top, delicious! The hot chocolate with whipped cream, sprinkles, and chocolate syrup was a special sweet treat. The potatoes had a nice flavor. The waitress recommended a special hot sauce for the potatoes which was really good. Everything was great. The bathroom was clean and in order. There is plenty of free parking in the side parking lot or on the street. Will be back. Highly recommend to anyone, especially breakfast lovers.“
“We absolutely love Cafe9ine and the owner Merceda! We have become regulars and pick up lunch on a weekly basis. The ingredients are always fresh, flavorful, and filling. The service is fast and friendly. Recently, Merceda catered a family gathering and the food was a hit! We ordered extra food but NOTHING was left at the end... Everyone grabbed any leftovers, and people commented on how tasty everything was. We cannot recommend this place more!“
“I love this place but I ordered 2 lattes and 2 bagels and all my food was done in 5 minutes besides the pumpkin pie latte , I waited a total of 25 minutes just for the pumpkin pie latte and then it tasted like a normal latte with no pumpkin flavor. Not sure what happened but going to give them a second chance because their team was super positive and full of smilesEdit for reply: I appreciate the offer but I’m okay on the free drink , the issue wasn’t that my food and one drink was handed out early , the issue was that the ingredients in the drink that I ordered were not prepared so my self and multiple customers that ordered the same drink waited 25 minutes. The best way to fix this is to be honest and tell the customers that the ingredients for the item they ordered are not prepared and offer a different item as a substitute instead of not communicating the issue to the customer and having them wait for 25 minutes . Thank you and I appreciate your response and I hope sharing my experience can help you improve the experience for your future customers ❤️P.S the chia latte needs to be improved as well. I see multiple complaints about the chai from your customers and I also agree that it is the worse chai I have had, with that being said I would highly recommend changing your recipe or just removing it from your menu to make sure you keep your future customers happy.“
“Guys, these Spicy Fries are UN-BEELIEVABLE!!An extra on the sides menu - wow, these are some VERY special spicy fries - glazed and sweet and spicy and crunchy and perfect! And they are unique to this place! But I have a feeling this kind of special chefs recipe will be imitated elsewhere very soon.R&R is also an excellent place, very simple, great local cozy diner style place, you could bring the whole family, my kids loved it, their tortilla omelette, and their homemade corned beef hash breakfasts were amazing - kids keep begging me to come back. But the real star were these fries, wow. And it's very clear that the family running this business is highly invested in everything there. Great spirit, very attentive, warm service, great place - R&R, Rivera & Ruiz, you've made our family's favorite local Richmond breakfast and lunch (brunch) spot, we'll be back, often I'm sure (craving those fries already!).“
“Met up with a former colleague for lunch this afternoon. Cafe Teatro is a fairly simple straight forward operation. Coffee drinks, Italian sodas, sandwiches, assorted muffins and pastries.I got the pesto chicken sandwich on sourdough. It was fresh, tasty, and reasonably priced.Restrooms are on the second floor by the library entrance. There's a brightly colored patio area with umbrellas and artwork. This is a great place to meet up with friends, or just hangout and enjoy a snack and a book.“
“This review is for the dinner service, which is lovely, full of charm, and has a serious appreciation for food as art. Each dish was incredibly flavorful, curated, and came with fresh ingredients. Overall, the dishes had quality ingredients that were thoughtfully put together, and well worth the value. The vibe and ambiance was fit for both a playful date and an evening with friends. The person behind the counter was also very kind and took his time to suggest wine pairings and dishes. So grateful for this place -- it definitely is a spot for good dining in Berkeley.“
“Wonderful place to have a cozy lunch with a friend, or a peaceful cup of tea and a snack on a rainy day, or a celebratory brunch with mimosas .The Cafe at the Inn has plants, flowers at every table, and multiple spacious airy rooms so you can choose which type of ambiance you want.The service is friendly and attentive- but not too attentive-and very fast. Order at the counter and then sit at a table to wait for your food, but it doesn't seem like one of those places. I wouldn't shy away from taking a date there because of that.Parking: Free parking spaces behind Inn“
“Just an absolutely awesome restaurant with amazing, high quality food and actually gives you enough portion size.Kinda cliche but Abe’s Cafe has literally brightened my time at Berkeley lol especially these past semesters where it has gotten pretty tough and miserable. Thank you Abe’s Cafe for always making my day better every time I go!“
“I have been here twice now. Both times have been good. Came here with some of my coworkers. I ordered the mazapan drink. I usually always order my drinks iced but tried the hot mazapan. IMO it tastes better hot. I also tried the concha and I liked that it was soft and fresh. The second time I came was with my little sister. She ordered the strawberry lemonade and she really liked it. I ordered the pecan tres leches cupcake and it was not the best.... But everything else that I have tried has been good.“
“I had the best avocado toast and a delicious coffee while sitting at a table on the sidewalk in front of the kitchenette. Everything was glorious. I also bought a loaf of banana bread to bring home, which I expect will hit the senses in a just-as-amazing way.“
“Panera Bread in Pinole is a fantastic spot for a quick, delicious meal. The atmosphere is welcoming and cozy, with plenty of seating options for both individuals and groups. The staff is always friendly and efficient, making sure that your order is taken accurately and delivered promptly.The menu at Panera Bread offers a wide variety of options, from hearty sandwiches and soups to fresh salads and pastries. I particularly love their broccoli cheddar soup and turkey avocado BLT sandwich - both are always flavorful and satisfying. The bakery section is also a must-try, with a tempting selection of breads, pastries, and cookies that are perfect for a sweet treat.Overall, I highly recommend Panera Bread in Pinole for a tasty and convenient dining experience. Whether you're looking for a quick lunch on the go or a cozy spot to relax with a cup of coffee, this location has it all. I will definitely be returning to try more of their delicious offerings.“
“I’m really happy to find this place. Quiet, inexpensive, good food and coffee, super friendly owner, and decent wifi. I work remotely and like to get out of the house. This will be definitely my regular spot to do my morning emails and have breakfast.“
“My daughter tried the frozen boba and loved it. She will be back to try more boba and other items on the menu. She brought me the butter cookie that's shaped like a sea shell, sorry forgot the name of them lol but it was so freaking fresh!!!“
“We just discovered this fantastic lunch place in Vallejo! It's been there for years, but it's sort of hidden from view. We had a great lunch, and it was so reasonably priced. I had the special salad -- poached salmon, avocado, and 2 side salads (both delicious), and my husband had a HUGE fried chicken sandwich! It was one of the best he's had. The service as very friendly and prompt. We will definitely be back!!“
“It's a little shed in a parking lot with seating nearby. I can't get over the horchata latte, treat yourself. The baked goods from Acme are exceptional as expected. Can't believe I didn't know this place before. For a drive-up, we didn't feel rushed.“
“I hate to say it but we order from this café often via DoorDash. To be honest, when it comes to a dirty chai latte, this café has it on lock! I will also say that, since they've changed l ownership, the food has improved dramatically! Keep up the great work!I haven't been in the location lately to see what the ambience is like but when I was there a couple of months ago it was very casual yet, cozy. This staff was inviting, although the area itself has his ups and downs.“
“This was a wonderful business for ordering my kid's birthday cake. I live in Monterey and she lives in Berkeley. I contacted the Lavender Bakery and explained the situation. They were great about the exact design I wanted, the size (for 50 people), and the perfect icing color. I heard that the cake was a HUGE success and that the birthday girl was thrilled.Thank you, Lavender Bakery!“
“This place is absolutely fantastic! I'm a bagel enthusiast and have tried many around town, but this spot stands out among the rest. We sampled a variety of their offerings, including the Tuna Melt with Cheddar, Chicken Wrap with Tahini Sauce, Turkey Ham, Swiss on Croissant, and Grilled Chicken Breast with Mozzarella—each one was a flawless addition to our day.We grabbed two for a quick bite on our day trip, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice because all four of them were incredibly delicious. The taste, saltiness, and freshness, along with the aromatic blend of the meats and veggies, were spot on. Everything about the experience was just right.We loved it so much that we came back for another visit, and I think my partner might have already snuck in for more. The combination of flavors, quality, and overall experience has made this our go-to spot. We're both smitten with this place and can't wait to indulge in more of their delightful creations!“
“Support small businesses like this one! Got a medium-well cheeseburger and some chili cheese fries. Food was ready within 10 minutes of placing my online order and was hot and delicious! Will definitely eat from here again the next time I'm in the neighborhood.“
“Definitely a great hidden gem!! Food was delicious and filling, seating was plenty, service was friendly and quick, and there's even some games to play outdoors. Parking lot probably fills up as the night goes on but it's convenient. Had so much fun with my friend here. We talked for hours the ambiance overall was so chill and fun. Burger was so good and I couldn't even finish I was so full. Definitely can't wait til they open back up again! Assuming they're waiting for better weather, I would.“
“Great brunch place! The Lama Special is great: two eggs, two pancakes (with butter and maple syrup), bacon and some fruit (price: $15 + taxes). It was very tasty, and the pancakes were especially soft. The food was ready very quickly! Even though the kitchen is open, the place does not smell thickly of food.“
“Hidden gem. Hours are hard to catch cuz open only during lunch for 2 hrs. Looks classy inside. Serves as a laboratory since all run by students in the culinary program. Price is unbeatable. They state the plates are small but in fact same size as fancy places. Could try couple different dishes due to pricing. They also encourage you to order and try multiple dishes so students have practice cooking the dishes. The food is also good btw. You can't beat a $8 entree of salmon with mash potatoes. AND the salmon is size of your fist so it actually isn't small. Under $40 for two people which included drinks, dessert, and soup.“
“Absolutely thrilled they took over the cafe. Huge breakfast sandwiches, and simple deli sandwiches. You can have any sandwich on a bagel, giant croissant or regular toast. Tons of random snacks, donuts, boba tea and slushies. And I'm addicted to their Vietnamese iced coffee. The family who run it are so friendly and warm, and live locally as well. Good little small business to support!Kid-friendliness: Lots of the kids stop by on their way to school or the high schoolers for lunch. They sell instant ramen, snacks candy and beverages.Wheelchair accessibility: No steps to enter, could wheel to a table. But the cafe is in a historic building so the door and counter are standard and not modern. But service would be accommodating.“
“Straight fire. What an awesome little spot.I spent a couple hours here waiting for my mom.The vibes were good, and great portion sizes for super reasonable prices. Everything looked well presented and fresh. The interior was clean. The service was friendly. Thank you! ?“
“Good food. The younger girl spilled the smoothie all over the cup. Didn’t wipe it. And then tried to have me carry it. I almost ruined my outfit. I won’t be back for a while. Girl with the ponytail with highlights. Then they forget my raspberry bar. And when I TURN AROUND ALMOST 15 MINS AWAY TO GET IT, the young boy says “Did you forget your bar?” Like no. YOU guys forgot it. Never handed it to me. Nothing. They need to do better. Seriously.“
“A great find! Fresh ingredients, perfect preparation, generous portions, authentic French savory and dessert crepes. Varied salads and espresso drinks offered as well.I enjoyed the Saint Malo (savory ham, cheese, egg) which is prepared in the traditional French style with edges folded over. Delicious, classic and filling!My companion had a custom vegetarian savory crepe. Many offerings for vegetarians.Our only disappointment was not having room to share Crepe Suzette for dessert, but we will be back!The ambiance was casual, colorful and comfortable for dining in. The restaurant is in a pleasant walkable section of Dolsno with other fun places nearby for strolling.The staff (owners?) couldn’t have been more friendly. The chef even seemed not to mind my poor but well-intentioned French.“
“Recently stopped by The Grind in Vallejo and was blown away by the exceptional service and delicious food! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making our visit truly enjoyable. I opted for their sandwich, and it was absolutely fantastic - fresh bread and flavorful ingredients made for a perfect bite. My colleague thoroughly enjoyed their breakfast burrito as well. With such a positive experience, I can't wait to return and try more of their menu offerings. If you're in Vallejo, don't miss out on The Grind - you won't be disappointed!“
“Todo fresco, las botanas están ricas y tienes que ser paciente porque aquí ay Línea haha. Pero vas a ver que esperando para tu botana era la mejor decisión en todo tu día :) todo esta rico. Van en un día caliente, la nieve y mangonadas son los mejores.“
“Marc and team catered our wedding at the Brazilian Room, and we were extremely happy with both the planning process and the food/support on the day itself. The Arlington team are clearly pros at working in the Brazilian room - and had everything set up quickly and efficiently day-of - even though we had a shorter evening slot. The food was very good (especially the grilled salmon and pesto pasta) - everyone went back for seconds and we got many compliments! Marc was transparent and easy to work with throughout, and we thought pricing was reasonable compared to other vendors we looked at. Would highly recommend!!“
“Went there with my dad and son over Winter break. We went on a Friday afternoon/evening. We went for the gaming experience first and the cafe experience second. I was very surprised when we got there how crowded it was with just cafe go'ers. We had to wait about 20 minutes for a table to open up that would fit the three of us. I don't know if that's typical. However they are not far from Cal so I would I imagine they get a lot of campus traffic when school is in session.The game selection was outstanding. Lots of different sections with different kinds of games. Party games, puzzle games, strategy games, you name it. Really enjoyed that. If you want access to the game library it's $8/person. If you're just there for the cafe you don't have to pay the library fee. Love all the decor as well. It all tied well into the gaming theme.Most of the staff was super friendly. However at one point I was trying to point out an issue in the bathroom and tried to get a couple of the staff members attention from the end of the galley. They looked up from their phones but didn't walk down to the end of the galley to hear me. I had to walk all the way around to the register to really get them to pay attention. That was mildly disappointing in terms of the quality of their service. Other than that everyone else I interacted with was terrific.Good menu with decent selection and variety. Tried two of the pizzas and a sandwich. Everything tasted very good. Would have liked to have seen a few more snack options.Parking: Your only real option here is paid street parking. After 6:00 p.m. the meters turn off. I think there are some parking garages in the area, but I think it would be a decent walk to them. If you're staying late to play games, it might be slightly uncomfortable to walk to one of the garages in the dark.Kid-friendliness: Great place to bring your kids! They can enjoy snacks and sodas on the menu. There are lots of kid friendly games that are suitable to all ranges of kid ages and play styles.“
“This is a delicious bistro which serves sophisticated foods over the counter. There is usually plenty of seating, and the staff is really friendly. Their menu is much richer than the size of the place suggests, because they have a thriving catering business in the back. I especially like their soups and crab sandwiches.“
“This is the only coffee shop in Albany that’s open before 8am. For that reason, I really appreciate them and will come back. Don’t expect a craft latte here , however. The milk is over frothed, temperature brought up too high, and there’s simply too many choices on the menu for anything to be perfected here. However, for a quick coffee before an early morning job this place hits the spot. The service was friendly and they opened right on time. A great little neighborhood coffee spot.“
“Decent breakfast fare. The biscuits and gravy was pretty basic. My wife says her meal (corned beef hash) was "Okay, nothing special." The interior decor has a retro vibe decorated with sports memorabilia and such. The place was clean and lively. The wait to be seated was brief and we didn't wait too long to be served. Cool little spot serving breakfast, lunch and dinner.“
“My friends raved about the breakfast burrito, so that’s what I got for a Sunday brunch. We had a group of 10 and there was one table that could fit us but we did need to borrow chairs to squeeze us in. Indoor and outdoor seating available. They call out your name for drinks once it’s ready, but they’ll bring your food to your table (they’ll give you a number). You order and pay first, then get seated. There’s free parking available. Credit cards only. The burrito is naturally vegetarian but you can pay extra to add meat. I had a matcha latte as well (extra charge for almond or oat milk) which was decent. The burrito is small but dense; I particularly enjoyed the green sauce that came in the side (this is what made the burrito stand out).“
“Found this place by accident. Everyone here, both employees and park visitors alike, is friendly towards both humans and dogs. The club was quite delicious, and Copper just gave compliments (a la belch) to the chef of his hot dog! And the view is quite picturesque.“
“This is our favorite non-fancy bougie breakfast and coffee place in Berkeley. I always get the croissant breakfast sandwich with orange juice. They also serve THE avocado toast (the one that prevents us millennials from buying property) and their iced coffees are delicious too.“
“When I arrived I was in a surly mood due to my girlfriend ushering me out of the house in my dirty work clothes, telling me I had a long day ahead of me. Suddenly we detoured to get some breakfast. I was a little unprepared. No shower, work clothes, etc…well I decided to forget my embarrassment, and I asked for a coffee milk shake. They knew what I was craving. It was the best shake I’ve had in my life and I kept thinking about it all day. I live in Pescadero, a good hour and a half away maybe two, but….I can’t forget how perfectly creamy, ice cold, and served with all of it there, not skipping….the long spoon,..you know what I mean. The rest of my breakfast was excellent except they don’t serve the bacon crispy so be sure to ask for it if that’s how to take it. Service was spot on. Thank you to the staff they made my day a lot better.“
“Ayal and the catering team were a dream to work with for our event at UC Berkeley. The order was exactly as ordered, on time for both deliveries, and a pleasure to work with, even in the last minutes of getting final numbers together. Highly recommend catering for any event!“
“Hizcafe provides a truly enchanting experience, combining a picturesque setting with a diverse and flavorful menu. Nestled by the bay, the outdoor seating offers breathtaking water views, creating a serene ambiance for patrons to enjoy.The star of the culinary show at Hizcafe is undoubtedly the extensive selection of empanadas. With over ten varieties to choose from, including options like beef, chicken, chorizo, ham with cheese, and even breakfast, the menu caters to a wide range of tastes. The addition of unique offerings like apple and mushroom empanadas adds a delightful twist to the traditional options.The coffee selection at Hizcafe is equally impressive, featuring classic delights such as cappuccino, latte, Americano, and espresso. For those who prefer a colder indulgence, there are iced coffee and ice teas to complement the warm, inviting atmosphere. The latte Macchiato and hot chocolate add an extra layer of indulgence to the beverage options.Beyond empanadas and coffee, Hizcafe goes the extra mile with a selection of tasty sandwiches, providing a well-rounded culinary experience. Whether you're in the mood for a quick bite or a leisurely meal, the combination of delectable food and stunning views makes Hizcafe an ideal destination for a relaxing and enjoyable experience.“
