Best veggie burger in San Leandro hands down! Veggie burgers are pretty predictable these days, with a few common veggie patties out there - Blue Dish uses the Beyond Patty, but I must say, they dress it up with fresh, thoughtfully-arranged produce and a delightful melted cheese skirt. They cook it nicely, and sandwich it between a tasty soft bun. I ordered the side of fries, and the seasoning was nice. I will definitely return!

I came across this spot by chance because I had to grab lunch for co-workers and they choose this place. I honestly never heard of it even though I lived less than 10 minutes away for practically my whole life. The food is so good! I love the Lamb Shawarma Wrap (really hard to get a good one around here!) and the fries are done perfectly. One time we ordered DoorDash but we didn't see any option to get a side of fries. They were so nice, they just added a serving for us with no extra charge. Since they, they had loyal customers. Wish there were open on weekends too!

First time here, the service was awesome! Super friendly. My shawarma wrap with lamb was good, sat in the outdoor seating. A little sunny but good enough. A great spot to eat if you are shopping nearby at marina square.

Blue Dish Cafe offers healthy and flavorful takeout options with sandwiches, salads, wraps, burgers, burritos, and plates. We decided to order the Mediterranean Chicken Shawarma wrap, Falafal wrap, and a Chicken Shawarma plate all without dairy. We were notified by the staff that they were all out of Falafel, so we got another Chicken Shawarma wrap and I think it was just meant to be. All of the ingredients were fresh and just worked well together. They used a grilled tortilla instead of pita or flat bread, which we liked. It was filled with a lot of meat, along with grilled onion, tomato, and cucumber. We had the option of either fries or side salad, but we decided on fries after reading the reviews, and they were tasty and nicely fried. The Chicken Shawarma plate came with rice, cucumber and tomatoes, hummus, baba ganoush, and pita, but this dish was on the pricier side for the portions. This didn't have the same punch of flavors like the wraps, but it was a healthier alternative and I liked that they paid attention to our food allergies. Overall, I'm glad we tried this place and got to support a local business. The staff were really nice and sincere. You can order on their site and delivery is available on GrubHub and DoorDash.

This is my go to salad joint in San Leandro! I been ordering from door dash since Covid started and the kitchen staff DD makes salad like no other! Gives me extra bread and fries on the side all the time! Bomb! Great customer service as well.

I love this spot for lunch. I work nearby and they make the food really quick when you order online via their webpage or in person. I had their gyro before and was delicious.

I've been eating here for over 10 years, good family owned establishment. Healthy alternative to fast food restaurants, it's a bit out of the way but you can call ahead or order online and the food is prepared fresh and the recipes are delicious. I always recomend the steak and shrimp burrito. Their burgers are also better than other chain establishements in the area and their prices are cheaper. Blue Dish Cafe has never failed especially during covid. I'd give more than 5 stars if I could.

Just finished my chicken plate ordered thru DoorDash. Presentation was exactly what was pictured. Portions on small side, there were fatty mushy pieces I had to spit some out. I do love that they give you yogurt sauce. I always ask for them at other restaurants but they never give it. Pita bread was warm, fluffy, and chewy I ate it all with the hummus. Pictured with jalapeño added myself.
Great food. Fast service. Very clean. Parking. The falafel was bomb, even thought I was expecting a flatbread and instead it's made with a flour tortilla. Or maybe I ordered wrong. Good fries. The eggplant salad was amazing. Fresh, flavorful, and hearty.

Picked up food for three people, owner was super nice, COVID safety operation was very efficient. Mediterranean dishes were tasty and I had to try the cheeseburger which was a definite favorite. Glad I have family in the Dro so I can hit this place up again soon.
