The most tender brisket I may have had anywhere. 🥰🥰
Stay Gold Deli/BBQ in Oakland is a true standout — they’re creating sandwiches you simply can’t find anywhere else in the city. Every bite feels bold, inventive, and perfectly balanced, with smoky BBQ flavors layered on top of fresh, quality ingredients. Their attention to detail shows in every sandwich, from the perfectly toasted bread to the unique sauces and house-pickled additions. The menu pushes creativity without losing that comforting, down-to-earth deli feel. If...read full review
It's just the best barbecue and sandwich deli in Oakland. No frills, just delicious. Get a beer, see a show, play some chess, get your pinball fix. Get the brisket. Get the specials, they're always good. Get the tuna, it's off the hook. You're welcome.

Stay Gold Deli is a restaurant that offers a variety of options, focusing on BBQ dishes. The pulled pork sandwich and brisket are popular, known for their tenderness and flavor. The deli also serves other sandwiches, including a Reuben, Cubano, PoBoy, and Italian on a Hoagie. For those wanting something other than BBQ, there is a full deli menu. The outdoor seating area on the back patio features picnic tables and umbrellas, creating a comfortable space to relax. Customers enjoy the 90's rock vibe and the atmosphere, with live music events occasionally hosted, which may have a door charge. The indoor seating area is noted to be less inviting by some. The salad and PoBoys have received positive feedback, while the brussels sprouts were not as impressive. The restaurant also has a well-stocked bar and offers karaoke, making it a fun spot for grown folks to unwind. However, the mac and cheese was described as just okay.
