“So happy to find a delicious and friendly restaurant that doesn’t close in the afternoon in my neighborhood. We have been there several times in the past couple months and I’m still trying new things on the menu. My husband tried the ribs which he said were the best he’s ever had and half the serving went home with him. It was huge! Desserts are exceptional especially the flan. I’m still exploring their vegetarian options but so far my favorite is their version of chili relleno. Come and relax and enjoy the food and friendly atmosphere!“

“I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. I am a business owner a few doors down and I wandered in with a friend after work one night about a month ago. We were met with such incredible warmth from the staff and the environment itself, even without a reservation. We sat at the bar and were greeted by Josh, only to find out later that he is the owner. He made excellent recommendations on everything from our drinks to dessert. The bar didn’t feel isolated from the rest of the restaurant and guests, but rather was lively hub frequented by kitchen and serving staff and warmed by a smoldering wood fire. The coziest. We swooned for the poke appetizer, complete with house-made toasted, but not crisp, blue corn tortillas. The pork shoulder tacos—also to die for. I have to say though, that the star on the sidelines was the beans. I honestly didn’t know I could feel this way about beans…but I digress. Josh bounced around from table to table all night, never letting a single ball drop, making every guest feel like *his* guest. A pot de crème sealed the evening in perfect bliss. I’m back a month later with the same friend, eating different and somehow even more incredible entrees: ribeye, halibut and a rhubarb crisp for dessert. I scarcely ever take the time to write a review as I prefer to vote with my $ and my feet, but I simply couldn’t eat here again without taking the time to sing it’s praises. Eat here.“

“I’ve recently cut out all dairy and pretty much all meat, although I will make an exception for special occasions and eat meat seldomly. anyway the options here are delicious if you’re a vegan! Their menu is full of tasty choices. U couldn’t be happier with my recent door dash orders“

“The food inside is delicious and healthy portions. The service here is great too!“

“It was our first time and the service was amazing. Our dinner was more than excellent, the grilled pork chops with sweet potato puree best ever tasted. Great selection in red wine and great atmosphere! Owners were there and were very welcoming and down to earth! 100% recommended“

“Outstanding restaurant, we have dined at Wood Tavern more times than I can recollect . We we rather disappointed recently when we called to make reservations for 4 for lunch on 2/25/2022 and were informed they only take reservations for 5 or more. Is this true ? If so they should so state on their web site.“

“Best breakfast ever. I come from Sacramento just for their breakfast. Their service is great. They are quick with seating and serving no matter how busy they are. Their orange juice is the best I’ve ever had. I get their bacon breakfast burrito and eggs Benedict. Highly recommend any time you come to San Fran. Also. Parking isn’t crazy. Lots of walkable things to do after eating as well. ☺️“

“I always have a good time great food💕“

“Loved my birthday dinner tonight! Portions small for the prices in our opinion. A scallops main dish with 3 scallops is small. Drinks were amazing, decor fabulous and great service. My son had to go eat more food afterwards as he was still hungry. Bigger portions would be good. Loved everything else! Great choices, appetizers, main dishes and creative drinks were delicious. Kind of surprised knowing they knew it was my birthday that they didn't offer me a birthday "something" to make it special. For these prices I would expect something.“

“This is my favorite restaurant in Oakland! The food is amazing and so are the cocktails. The vive is is unreal!!!“

“The Lounge is truly an exceptional spot and has quickly become one of our regular go-to places. The atmosphere is welcoming, the drinks are consistently excellent, and the overall experience is always first-class.

What truly sets this bar apart, however, is the outstanding service—especially from Jennifer C. behind the bar. She is an absolute professional and a rockstar at what she does. On our most recent visit, the bar was completely packed, yet Jennifer handled the crowd with remarkable efficiency, composure, and attention to detail. Despite the volume, she ensured every drink was prepared promptly and with the same high level of quality and consistency.

It’s rare to find a place that combines great ambiance, excellent drinks, and genuinely exceptional service. The Lounge delivers on all fronts, and we always look forward to coming back. Highly recommended.“

“Treated my parents to a lovely dinner from Kiana for their 50 th wedding anniversary!!! Everything was delicious!“

“Their food is some of the best I’ve had in quite some time. We stumbled upon this corner restaurant by accident and had zero regrets. Our favorites are the chicken and waffle burrito and their French toast. Their French toast is the best I’ve ever had, soft and flavorful. You must check this place out!“

“We had such a great night at Burdell. The food was delicious - comforting and satisfying, but still thoughtful and really well done. We especially loved the pork strip steak, ham salad and cornbread. Great cocktails, super friendly service, and just an all-around fun dinner. Definitely a place we’ll come back to.“

“Even on an incredibly busy night, this place reminded me why I keep coming back. They were completely full—so full that they had even removed the bar stools to accommodate more guests.

Eric wasn’t there, but the manager recognized me, as did Thomas, Eric’s fellow bartender. They remembered that I love sitting at the bar and said, “Don’t worry, we know you like to sit at the bar.” They actually brought out a bar stool with a backrest just for me. That kind of personal hospitality is rare.

And the food! The vegetarian version prepared by Michael Tuck was phenomenally tasty—creative, flavorful, and absolutely memorable. Tomatoes on the Rock was an amazing version of gazpacho, with tiny tomatoes exploding with flavor in the mouth.

Thomas carried on the amazing tradition of hospitality that Eric has always provided. Great food is important, but being remembered and genuinely taken care of is what turns a restaurant into a place you want to return to again and again.

Phenomenal food, exceptional hospitality, and a team that truly understands how to make a guest feel special.“

“I love Zs cafe. Its like going to Cheers. The staff is warm and friendly. The food is great and so are the cocktails. Big shout out to Pia who makes the best drinks in town! The owner of Zs, Medhi has created a little piece of heaven in Oaklad.“

“Had the Italian style sandwich here..... Really solid sandwich. What really got me though is the cook gave me this fantastic in-house made habanero sauce then I just ended up dunking over every bite I was absolutely in love with it. Really cool to sit at the counter and watch them cook, chef was such a friendly dude and the server as well! Really enjoyed the vibe of just hanging out and eating my meal“
