“Excellent Chile Rellanos and margaritas Vibe is right! Staff is great! Definitely a place to be !”
“Thank you Lucas! Top notch service. I appreciate you continuously making sure we had everything we needed. You are attentive to our needs, concerned about how we enjoyed our food, and that the temperature in the room was comfortable. Thank you! In addition, thank you Sonia for helping us check out while we were in a business meeting. Very kind and thoughtful!”
“The staff is friendly. Food is really good. My favorite is the SAMOSA. Yummy. Will go again. Try it out!”
“My dad was craving shrimp fried rice so I was searching in a place in Vallejo for take out and thought I’d try 88 baobao’s. I called in and it was easy to place an order. I ordered shrimp fried rice, sauteed green beans, popcorn chicken, and a side of cucumbers. My order was ready in 10-15 mins for pick up. Service was quick. This was my first time ordering from this location, I didn’t even order any baos sio mai or dumplings but I tried them at other locations. They have indoor seating and the food has huge portions to serve lots of people and last for multiple meals. Located in the Gateway Plaza across from Vallejo Costco, so there’s plenty of parking. Located next to Ulta and quickly.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“Food was fantastic. They did a great job draining pasta. They accommodated our food restrictions by modifying things as needed. Our server was tentative and flexible. Definitely would recommend it as one of the better Olive Gardens.”
“Came here for lunch on a Saturday afternoon, no wait. Great value for the price, lots of meat and appetizer options. Service was attentive in refilling our banchans and taking our next meat orders. I like their banchans, brisket, galbi and mini sesame balls.
The tables on the sides have the exhaust. We sat in the middle section and those didn’t have the exhaust. Also the stalls in the women’s bathroom are tight; barely any room to close the door. And the floor in the bathroom was super sticky.”

“Absolutely AMAZING hole in the wall ran by a sweet family. Stumbled upon this gem on our drive home and it did not disappoint. Everything was incredibly flavorful! We had the Phơ Tái, Kang Panang (red curry), Fried rice and Crispy Egg rolls. It was so good we forgot to feed the phone before digging in. Would definitely make the drive back.”
“Excelente servicio y por supuesto la comida es verdaderamente deliciosa viajamos por una hr de San Francisco a Vallejo pero valió la pena el marisco es muy fresco y riquísimo todooooo!! los platillos mexicanos como el Molcajete es muy rico. Al principio ellos ponen chips crujientes frescos y salsa en tu mesa y tienen una barra de diferentes salsas las cuales puedes disfrutar con tus chips, el ambiente te hace sentir como en casa ellos son muy amables y al final te llevan unos ricos churros con crema de cortesía. Volveríamos una y muchas veces más a este lugar.”
“We had a great meal from a food truck, Rumi Kabob. What an oasis in a gas station in Vallejo! We had the lamb plate, lamb gyro, and a combo of lamb and beef. All were good, especially the gyro, the servings were big, and the bonus hummus was great too. We have plenty of leftovers to eat tomorrow. We didn’t eat there, we brought our food home, so the atmosphere was somewhat irrelevant. It’s a food truck. We were so happy to find it!”
“Great spot! When I shared I was not feeling a particular dish - customer service was awesome!”

“Went here a couple of times, coffee shop is located inside a beautiful historic building. I got a matcha latte and it was overly sweet for my taste and the pastries were definitely not made same-day, but it's one of the only coffee shops in the area — would still suggest a visit for the vibes, and maybe try their specialty coffee drinks!! Located super close to Touro University, good for studying or getting work done.”
“A nice quick bit of food to satisfy. Went for a large pho with belly pork. It was massive, too much to eat really. Pork was fabulous with good crunch with the fat. It's a nice quick eat place. No frills.”

“The name is 3 star ⭐️ but it’s definitely a 5 star especially when it comes to the food , very fresh made with care. Service and staff are nice and attentive, and the restaurant is very clean. To start I have the hot tea ,then garlic chicken, I prefer it crispy crunchy, or fried hard, chicken and shrimp noodle, and my fav green spicy green bean.”
“Tony created an unforgettable moment in time for my entire family with the Loki Gator birthday cake that he custom made for my sister-in-law. Tony is professional with his beautiful website, clear communication, and makes you feel like family in his warm hospitality. This was the first cake I ever had made by Tony, and it exceeded my expectations. The cake tastes as good as it looks. Upon tasting my first bite I was immediately transported back in time to my childhood remembering the rich unique textures and flavors of a cake from long ago. The entire process of ordering the cake, submitting payment, and picking up the finished product went so smoothly. I simply sent Tony a picture of what I wanted, which was a random image my brother had text to me of a Loki Gator. Tony made fantasy a reality. Tony's Cakes has become our household standard. I will be returning for more "GLORIOUS" cakes as Loki would say! ***Anybody leaving negative reviews about Tony's Cakes probably didn't want to pay, failed to follow the clear instructions on the website contract, or is looking for someone to blame for their errors. Tony did everything his website and contract said he would do. When I arrived at the store all the staff made sure all of my needs were met while I was there, and Tony helped me figure out my Zelle payment, even more he helped us get the cake in the car all by himself. He really didn't have to do any of those things but he did. My only regret is that I should have thanked him more than I did in person, because I was distracted with getting the cake home safe. Dreams do come true at Tony's Cakes! If he did it for my family he can do it for yours too!”
“Best case of mistaken identity ever!
I walked in mistaking it for Vallejo Brewing Company right after they closed for the night, but the menu was so enticing I had to come back during business hours!
The red beans and rice with Cajun shrimp is an INSTANT comfort food go-to, and not to start drama, but a certain barbecue place on the block could learn a thing or two about making amazing cornbread from this chef! The perfect, fresh baked, sweet and buttery portion of cornbread I've had since my mom's recipe.
The $7 cocktail special was also amazing, not too powerful but not so watered down you couldn't feel it!
The gal working the counter was sweet as can be both times I've been in as well.
I can't wait to bring everyone I know here!”
“I spontaneously pulled into this place after driving by their sign and I’m so glad I did. Really great burrito. They make it to order and I waited for what felt like less than 2 minutes. It’s huge and filled with a delicious mix of ingredients. I briefly interacted with a few of the employees and got kind, welcome vibes from them. Would recommend!”
“I frickin loved this place!!!
Cannot wait to play here again.
Only thing that slightly sucked was the bar and beverage cart situation at the time we went.
There was no bar, the also had something going on with the beverage carts.
We didn't see the cart until the 17th hole.
Other than that, this place was awesome.
The right amount of challenging and the right amount of easy for a decent golfer such as myself.

“Excellent food. I give it a 20 out of 10. A hidden treasure. this place is on the TOP of my favorite places to eat. Very reasonably priced. excellent service. Everyone needs to try this family owned restaurant at least once, you'll be hooked if you enjoyed delicious food..”
“They expanded thier restaurant and offer night entertainment by way of open mic karaoke etc(mainly Mexican and El Salvadorian music) and possibly dancing not sure but usually when music is playing, alcohol is flowing and good food is served then A GOOD TIME is usually present.”
“I used to come here regularly but the food has gone downhill and I won't be back. The poppyseed chicken was one of my favorites but I could barely eat it this last time. The ambrosia was basically a pile of marshmallows with tiny bits of fruit.”
“So good! Very glad we found this place. The food is good and not overpriced and is always presented beautifully.We don’t like to park too close to the street so we always use the lot behind the restaurant. The specials always a good deal too.”

“The service was Amazing. We ordered a ton of food. And Gaby provided great service. She was making the food, helping her team, and answering questions all at the same time. Ensuring that our experience was great. This location just doesn’t accept the coupons. Thank you Gaby!!!”

“We had a graduation celebration here and the staff and manager couldn't have been nicer in assisting us to make it a great day! They held our cake for us while we were at the ceremony, they didn't blink when we showed up an hour earlier than planned! The manager, Markell (sorry if I am spelling it wrong) couldn't have been nicer or more helpful!! THANK YOU! Food was good - we ordered a bunch of different things: Pizza, wings, fries, garlic parmesan twists, etc.. RT pizza is always good, so that was a given! But we also enjoyed the different wing flavors, the garlic parmesan twist, fries, etc. Beer on tap, one of those cool soda machines where you select your soda and add flavor... We had LOTS of food - plenty for everyone - for what I consider a very reasonable price! Facilities are very pleasant! A sports bar kind of vibe with lots of screens, clean, cool. Plenty of room. I recommend this restaurant for groups, for a bite, or to catch a game.”

“This is the best one pho I’ve had in California. Pho is probably my favorite food ever and I’m always looking for a spot. The broth had so much depth I actually felt like the Sriracha took away from it. The noodles are fresh and so tender. My husband orders the bun plates and those don’t disappoint either. Now I’m always looking for excuses to be in Vallejo. Their service is awesome too. Friendly and quick. Restroom is clean. Nothing but good things to say. But seriously the pho is incredible”

“I am an Ube Fanatic. And obviously a had to try a whole bunch off their menu. Honestly. The ube truffle was AAAAAHHHHMAAZING. I got the ube pop tart too, but I won't be trying that until the morning. My husband got the ube BREAD PUDDING (like whaaaat) and it was delicious. The workers are also something to rave about! They gave us wonderful service. Thank you!”
“Great place for breakfast. I had a 3 egg breakfast. Boring toast, but it's a diner, and the breakfast was perfectly cooked. My buddy had a burger, really substantial, and the fries were fantastic. Skin on, cooked to perfection. Decent portions, prompt friendly service, reasonable pricing. Will be back.”

“Wow was wondering if Scotty’s Restaurant was still there. Haven’t been there in over 40 years. My step dad Greg Davis had relatives that worked at Scotty’s back then. I’d stop there with my uncle Jimmy Nolan sometimes as well in his semi truck. I was just a kid. I’ll be up in Vallejo next week delivering a load to Mare Island. If I can find a place to park my truck and trailer legally, I’ll stop in for breakfast.”
“Highly highly recommend Bag O’ Crab. We went for dinner tonight, Valentine’s day at 6pm and sat immediately. The food was so good Cooked perfectly with great flavor. Unlike other places, they know how to season food and cook with flavor. Large portions… Combo #2 1lb of snow crab legs and 1lb of head on shrimp w/corn on cob/potatoes and sausage $46. We got 2 whole crab clusters and roughly 15-18 large head on shrimp. So much food we brought home leftovers. You ant go wrong at this place.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“WOW. Amazing food and the people are really nice. We got the loaded chicken burrito (chicken, slaw, fries wrapped in a grilled tortilla) and mozzarella sticks. If you like a good cheese pull, the moz sticks will bring you joy. Amazing by themselves, but the sauces added an extra level of flavor. Favorites were spicy garlic honey, chipotle aioli, and spicy lemon pepper, but the buffalo and green habanero were delicious too. Also asked for a side of house pickles and those did not disappoint.”
“This food truck is located in a parking space of an old closes furniture store across Walmart Vallejo. They have tacos, burritos, tortas, quesadillas, sopes, ceviches. Meats include: Asada/Steak, Pastor/ Spicy Pork, Carnitas/ Fried Pork, Pollo/Chicken Cabeza/Head, Buche/Stomach, Tripa/Tripe, Lengua/ Tongue.
They also have drinks available. I tried their regular carnitas burrito and regular tripa burrito on a late afternoon weekend. It's not the best comparable to others I have tried but affordable. Too much beans in my opinion. Will come back again to try others. This business accepts Cash only. Tables and chairs available.”
“Sunshine Smoothies & Coffee is a bright spot in my hectic day. I love having my morning coffee while looking over the Napa River or a fresh smoothie/fresh squeezed juice when I don’t have time to grab breakfast at home. The owner, Carlos, is a gem. He always brightens my day and reminds me what is important in life. If you have not had the chance to experience this fantastic Vallejo treasure, make sure you do today!!”

“As a retired S.F. Bay Area NIGHT CLUB ENTERTAINER who knows Bars & Cocktail Lounges, AFTER HOURS in Vallejo, CA. is a GREAT place to meet friends, share good drinks, and Good Conversations. .. .. ..The owners Mike & Wes are also class guys, who treasure their devoted customers .. .. I visit often !! !! .. ..Sincerely, Frank Lombardo, aka "The Bay Area's FRANK Sinatra & DEAN Martin" from 1970-2010Benicia, California 94510 .. .. ..”
“I recently tried empanadas for the first time from this bakeshop, and I also purchased their Mango Nirvana cake. The cake was absolutely perfect, and the empanadas were delicious. The bakeshop has a spacious sitting area, and the staff provided quick and efficient service.”
“This taco truck is located at Broadway St Vallejo next to a small bar, smog shop, and tire center. The best and only spot to eat while waiting for your vehicle at the next door businesses. Limited street parking, people come and go, tables and chair with shades available. They have generous portion and reasonably priced mexican taco burrito nacho quesadilla torta, drinks like soda and bottled water are also available. I had the taco chicharones and the super nachos. The taco is good, the super nachos has beans cheese tomato sour cream and my choice of meat carne asada steak.
Overall I recommend this place if you like to try casual food truck.”
“So very delicious. I got a plate with Ribs, coleslaw and Hush puppies. I am going to be thinking about The Flavor of the ribs until I go back again. Also Looking forward to trying other side dishes next time. The staff was great and checked I had everything before I left.”
“The place is very beautiful and laid back. The oxtails were very delicious along with the fried plantains. Customer service is real good. would recommend this place to everyone.”
Cheap Eats
“First time eating here this morning as we were passing through town and found this place on Yelp. Our breakfast was great! I loved the crab omelette and the bacon fried rice. My wife’s breakfast was very good also. She usually doesn’t like restaurants scrabbled eggs but these were excellent and so was her French toast. Staff were very friendly too! I just wish this place was in our hometown!”
“Looking for something special for my son after some medical stuff, saw the reviews and decided to take a chance! Great little hole in the wall place, amazing food (definitely filled us up!) Chicken burrito, wet ground beef burrito and sope y enchilada. Chips and salsa with a Pina colada to top it all off. Price was WAY less than I expected ??”

“Food is delicious. Their bahn mi sandwiches have quality flavor and are packed generously with meat and veggies. When I ordered it, they did communicate to me it would take long about 25 mins. However I did end up waiting about 35-40 mins. Order ahead of time if you're in a rush. I noticed other people were waiting a while for their food as well. There was only one person taking orders and delivering food. They are family owned and ran. I hope they can hire more people to make it run more efficiently.I do like how they have tofu bahn mi as an option! Most bahn mi places don't offer that.The seats seem scattered. However there is various options for seating which is good for large groups. I would come back, but probably order ahead of time!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Hidden Gem for Authentic Mexican Flavor!
Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5)
Epale Taqueria & Seafood absolutely exceeded my expectations! From the moment I walked in, the welcoming vibe and delicious smells set the tone for a great meal.
Food: Everything was bursting with flavor! The tacos were perfectly seasoned, and the tortillas tasted fresh and homemade. The shrimp and fish tacos were especially amazing—crispy, juicy, and full of authentic taste. Don’t skip the house-made salsas either—they really elevate every bite.
Service: The staff was friendly, fast, and genuinely cared about our experience. They checked in regularly and offered great menu suggestions. It felt like we were being hosted by family.
Atmosphere: Laid-back but vibrant. Clean, colorful, and full of energy without being too loud. It’s a great spot whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or sitting down for a full meal.
Final Verdict: Epale is the kind of taqueria you want to keep coming back to. Fresh food, bold flavors, and outstanding service—definitely one of the best Mexican spots around. Highly recommend”
“I came on recommendations of a friend and cannot speak highly enough about the food and people. The restaurant is clean and welcoming, and when we came with a large party, all of our food came out quickly, piping hot, and delicious. I enjoyed my dinner immensely and I am surely going back.”

“I’ve been a customer at angry chickz since it’s opening. The food and service is always amazing! All the employees are always very kind and compassionate especially considering some of the mistreatment they face from other customers. I’ve never had a bad experience at angry chickz. The food is always great! I personally love the hangry fix! I also love the heat levels, my personal favorite is X-hot I think it’s amazing how the employees take time explaining just how hot the food is! It helps ensure everyone eats happy as long as you listen to the warning they give. Overall angry chickz is an amazing restaurant with top tier food and employees!”
“It was my very first visit. I didn't know what in the world to order, so the gentleman who took my order hooked me up. Even gave it to me for free since it was my first time. I went back recently. Honestly, to hell with Starbucks lol, Dutch bros taste better, has better prices, and better customer service hands down!”

“I bought a salad and forgot to redeem my rewards for a soda along with the order. When I picked up the salad, I told the cashier that I wanted to exchange my rewards at the register for a soda now and the cashier told me that I can't do it because I have to place a new order of at least $5? I don't understand why the app doesn't tell me that I have to place another order to be able to redeem the reward? I'm not satisfied with this situation. I don't know if it's like this in all Chipotle restaurants.”
“I must say I would have never thought a restaurant like this could exist in Vallejo but yet they are going over 12 years strong. Kudos to you and kudos for making Vallejo a destination for fine cuisine”
