The place has a casual, welcoming atmosphere and the staff were friendly and attentive. Great spot for tasty kabobs and a relaxed dining experience 👍“

“Town Fare is excellent. Just ate here at their last Sunday brunch which happens monthly. It was buffet style. Chicken and waffles, shrimp and grits were superlative. The location in the Oakland Museum is super stylish and classic. This restaurant needs to be supported.“

“First time having caspers since I was a kid. I live in Texas now but came to Cali to visit family. I ordered the chilli cheese dog but instead of tomatoes I added jalapenos. It was so wonderful!! This business has been around for years as I am now 31. Very much a staple in the Oakland Bay area community. If your ever flying into oak airport stop by this local historical spot for an amazing hot dog“

“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!!“

“I've been coming here for over 30 years! Love their baby burritos and the best hot sauce ever!“

“So GOOD I came back twice in one week! Joshua and Kay make you feel like family with their warm, personalized service. The basa is absolutely delicious, and everything is fresh and flavorful. Don't let the outside appearance fool you ... this place is a hidden gem. If you love great seafood, Joshua's Gulfport Seafood is a must-try!“

“The best fried chicken and waffles in the Bay Area!!! When you come to Oakland go to West Oakland to this store. You will not be disappointed.. They also serve banana pudding and peach cobbler, potato salad and macaroni salad. Everything is delicious, take my word for it!!!???“

“This has got to be one of the best burgers I've ever had in my life!!! Their pastrami burger is 🔥🔥🔥 a must have!!! And they have the best fries as well!! They also give you a very large amount of fries FRESH!“

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

“I've only ever ordered the food by delivery. The food is better than Panda Express. Also the portion size is huge and for a good price too. If you are looking for fast food Chinese food this is the place to get it 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“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!“

“East Oakland hood staple for dry fried ribs, chow mein, sweet & sour, and everything Chinese food. It's an old school hole in the wall. Mom and Pops owned joint. Food is always good, affordable, and on point.
They have Combo meals for a nice and fair price.“

“when I'm not in the mood to cook the first thing I think about is going to them.“

“pizza deliciosa, riquísima ensalada y lugar muy agradable. muy recomendado 🤩👏🏻👏🏻😋“

“buen y rapido serv y muy rica la comida“

“I love this place. This particular location the food is always fresh and always made correctly. Today I tried ordering through the app and it kept giving me an error message so I decided to use my QR code inside because I was using my points for a free small frosty. Something was wrong with the system and they were not able to scan my QR code, which also explains error message. Fortunately Raquel said she would honor the coupon and give me the frosty. I was so very grateful and the exact right thing for her to do in the situation. Thank You Raquel for making my experience so pleasant!! Wendy's for the WIN for hiring good people, honoring their coupons and delivering a great meal/ experience!! Thank you Wendy's on International in Oakland!!“

“One Of My Favorite Spots To Eat At �“

“Get to the drive thru window

“I didn’t like the way the nugs looked so I’m cooking a fresh batch. Pull around and I’ll bring them out in 3-4 minutes”

Appreciate this guys dedication to the nug game 🫡“

“The Coupon code for buy one Western Cheeseburgers get one for $2 didn’t give me the rewards points and when I tried to make my purchase through the App the app froze during the payment process, so I had to come in person to pick up my order.“

“Great food new fried pickles“

“Oh my God the barbecue was hot juicy and finger licking Good right off the grill you can't ask for nothing no better than that and tasty.
I'm just trying to figure out where I can find him at all the time because he has different places he goes to, I just happened to slip up on him. I was out taking care of business and the barbecue smells so good I had to wait around and get some. The hour wait was worth waiting for believe me.
So someone tell me or give me information on where his spits at.“

“Kids and I love stopping by for a sweet treat. Mario always gives us the best recommendations for the shakes. He is always nice, ready to answer kids' million questions. Inside is always clean, looks really cool, and love how they embrace the hyphy culture. Drive-through is pretty awesome, too.“

“Not your average Panda Express franchise location, something about it hits different. Great staff and quick service. Even when it's busy they will get to you very quickly. Get the white rice people! Try something other then fried rice or chow mein!“

“first time trying the Chicken sandwich it was good 👍👍👍👍“

“This location is the best pizza service in Oakland. I used to do Domino’s but their app switched me to a location south of the lake which doesn’t abide by corporate policy to leave the order at the door if indicated by the customer in the app. Whereas this location abides by corporate policy and indeed follows customers’ instructions if they want their orders left at their doors. And the food is 1000% better too. For the same price you get twice as much food as Domino’s and it’s not loaded with salt.“

“Amazing donuts and other pastries! They also serve asian cuisine. The Thai Iced Tea is awesome as well. The staff is equally impressive, very nice. Same name as other shops in Oakland, but that is the only thing similar. You have to go to the one on San Pablo!!!“

“Happy Chicken Finger Day Everyone“

“The lady was very rude. My friend is kind of disabled and he has a hard time grabbing stuff, so when he was trying to get his food from her, she made it more difficult for him to grab it from her, we were hoping that she would have some consideration for him and help him but she didn't, and that is sad.“

“Me recuerda el sabor de mi México. Super recomendado los tacos y tortas de pastor y asada 👌“

“We had a fine experience at Wendy’s.

The parking lot seemed clean when we arrived, and the staff were polite and quick to help. The line moved fast, making it a convenient stop.

We only ordered drinks during this visit, so I can’t speak much about the food, but the ordering process was smooth and there were no issues.

Overall, it was a quick and easy visit.“

“These are the best Pupusas for miles. They are crispy, wholesome and packed with stuffing. I have to get their Salvadorian Tamale as well. It is different from the Mexican variety as in the masa is really smooth, not grainy. Also these are cooked in a banana leaf. It's worth the trip, even though parking in the lot outside can be a bit problematic.“

“Great team here always friendly and helpful. The restaurant is always clean and the food fast and fresh.

The only downside is that it's in the middle of one of the worst homeless encampments around so there's always sketchy people wandering through looking for handouts or dogging through garbage out front.

Not McDonald's fault but Oakland needs to do better!“

“Although I mostly cook and eat at home, there's something very nostalgic and comforting about eating at Micky D's. You always know what you're going to get! I always order from my app now and have gotten lots of my favorites free!“

“Ordered their famous bowls, cheese curds and a chili cheese coney. Everything was hot and tasty, except the famous bowls could've had a few more pieces of chicken. They only gave about 5 small pieces of chicken in both of the bowls we ordered. If you want more gravy and chicken and corn, ask for it ahead of time. They gave a decent amount of mashed potatoes, that was very good.
Also, the melted cheese from the coney dog spilled out of the container and on almost all of the contents in the bag. They could've given me a bigger bag or maybe 2? Then I think the cheese wouldn't have spilled out. I do enjoy their chili cheese dogs more than the red and yellow W. We will be back because their food quality was great.“

“The food tastes great and at a good price! :)“

“Every time my family and I come here we have a great experience. The food is good and the staff is friendly! Today in particular we had a little mix up on our bowl toppings but the manager Griselda was very nice about it and fixed it for us! Will definitely come back to this location. They’re awesome!!! 😁“

“The reason I'm giving it to stars is not because of the food being special, it's because it is notit gets 5 stars because it does exactly what it's supposed to do. Late night the drive thru is open for those of us who starve at 3am“

“This McDonald's is in Eastmont mall parking lot. You have the police station, social security, in home care services, you can get your blood taken there and it's a bus transit station. Good staffing and different ethics staff that works there.“

“The staff was friendly, respectful, and made me feel welcomed right away. They were patient while taking my order and made sure everything was correct.

The service was quick but didn’t feel rushed, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. It definitely made the visit better overall. Always appreciate when a place has solid customer service like that.“

“There are lots of great taco trucks in this area. This one is on par with the rest. I’d say overall food taste is average but they get an extra star for variety and the green salsa is a bit different. I usually try the same thing my first time eating at any truck. 2 pastor and 2 asada. I think there Birria may be good, that’s next on my list.“

“Food was good they need to leArn better sanitation skills when come off break you wash your hands before returning to the line and dealing with customers food“
