“We are new to the Bay Area and went to this restaurant for the first time . Their service and food was excellent! I am North Indian and not easy to please with North Indian food but I have not had such mind blowing chole kulche and sarson ka saag , makke di roti in the US . Definitely recommend . Our server, Sabi,was awesome, brought complementary French fries for my son and gajar ka halwa for us. Very hospitable, felt like we were in India. Would go back soon.Vegetarian options: We were told that the kitchen is separated into veg and non veg sections and they do not mix things up which is great!”
“I came here on a reservation as this restaurant is incredibly small. There are only 2 tables that can hold a group of 4 each, maybe 2-3 tables that can seat 2 people, and a couple seats at the chefs counter. I heard the server quote a wait time of 1.5 hours to a group who had come in without a reservation looking for a table of 4, so make sure you make a reservation! After ordering, it takes quite a long time for the chefs to make your sushi, I think we waited around 30 minutes? But that's because everything was cut and made fresh. Make sure you have good company to chat with or else the wait will bore you!For a group of 3, we got 2 nigiri combos, 1 sashimi combo, 1 spicy salmon maki roll, 1 negi hama hosomaki roll.1. Nigiri combo - 8/10. This was a great value for for only $25! You can pick 7 nigiris as well as a chef's choice maki roll. I really enjoyed the Kanpachi, Kurodai, and Ika because they torched the top for some smokey flavor. Our maki roll of the day was the salmon & shiso hosomaki which had a hint of perilla leaf flavor! For the amount paid, it was definitely worth it!2. Spicy salmon maki roll - 9/10. This isn't your standard spicy salmon roll where they mince the salmon with some spice. These are strips of whole salmon so you really get to taste the meaty parts of the salmon. It was my favorite dish of the night!3. Negi hama hosomaki roll - 6/10. We all didn't think much of it. It was pretty bland and I thought that the rice in the roll overpowered the fish. It is a pretty light fish in the first place, so you won't be able to taste it much.Overall a great choice if you want some cheap and beautifully presented sushi! The menu is relatively simple and small”
“We ordered a variety of their recommended dishes including a noodle soup and goat dish. My favorite is still their chicken tikka masala with garlic naan. The tikka masala is a bit thicker in consistency and their naan is slightly sweet, which adds a nice twist.”
“Love this place! Try to come once a week to get their lemon chicken and chili beef! Toothpick lamb is good too if you like more fatty pieces of meat, if not opt with the ”
“Given my initial review (5/10/22), Casa Del Toro remains notably on my regular rotation of exemplary dining venues. I was yet again reminded during my recent Cinco de Mayo commemoration visit at Casa Del Toro of their EAGER flexibility in accommodating my dining proclivities since I espouse a quasi-WholeFoodPlantBased lifestyle. Upon placing my brunch order, I queried the wait staff about menu item accommodation which she couldn't readily address whereupon she summoned Mr. Maravilla. Upon repeating my accommodation request to Mr. Maravilla, I don't believe he even paused before he responded affirmatively/unconditionally! Such unequivocal commitment to ensuring noteworthy personalized customer satisfaction assures my continued patronage! And YES, we were predictably optimally sated with the exceptional menu items/food/drinks!”

“Most definitely best Italian food I’ve had very authentic the service is wonderful the stuffed mushrooms are amazing that’s my go to as appetizers I have always tried their specials of the day their seafood all is very fresh They have a very wide wine selection definitely recommended 100%”
“I was traveling for work and decided to try this Famous Dave’s since I haven’t been to one in a while. I ended up showing up an hour before closing(had no idea they closed at 8pm on Wednesday) However my bartender Brittney let me know as I saw it fairly empty. Service was great as not many ppl there. No complaints on that part. Food came out fairly quick to my surprise (big thumbs up) Staff was very knowledgeable as they had answers to my questions. My service was great thank you Brittney!!! Drinks were good. Definitely recommend will be coming back at earlier time next time I am in the area.Dietary restrictions: Definitely easy to keep on Keto friendly as I choose meat entree’s only delish”
“The little spot was full of surprises. I came here to meet up a friend and everything here was great! The staff were so friendly and made sure we were ok and even helped up with our food. I orders the pork bulgogi and also the sausage stew. FYI pork bulgogi is a little spicy so if you get it expect a little heat. It was very good though. As for the sausage stew. You might want to share this one with a friend because it is a lot. Perfect for those cold days or if you have a pretty bad hang over. This place definitely reminds me of my grandmas cooking when I was little. I'm so glad I came in to try it. I'll be back when I'm in the area.”

“Best Indian Restaurant in Hayward. Food is so delicious and taste amazing. We tried Briyani, Garlic Naan, Noodles, MoMo(Dumplings), butter chicken and everything was amazingly delicious.”

“Found this taco spot on a business trip. I'm glad I gave a chance ! The food amazing and the customer service is beyond amazing. This is a family owner business that just started. I felt like I was treat as if I was part of there family. Try the tacos and super fries. You won't be disappointed.”
“I found this place by chance while looking for Cajun style shrimp. The place is small and cozy. The flavors were there, the sauce is just a bit lighter and on the oily side than my regular place, but still tasty. The garlic noodles are also very good. My husband asked for chicken wings and they were decent, but nothing special. My biggest complaint is that I was trying to place my order over the phone for take out and the phone was not in service. I know these days you can place orders online, but I was driving so doing the call would have been much easier for me. & If you don't take phone orders that's fine, but then you shouldn't list the number as an option. The prices were fair, the service in person seems to be great so I plan on coming back and trying other things on their menu.”
“Love the paintings on the wall. Service may take a while depending on how busy they get. Recommend calling ahead if you don't want to wait. Huaraches is a must! Tacos and burritos never ”
“All their desserts are delicious but i always make sure to go Saturdays for that strawberry shortcake cupcake ? its soo good and the filling inside really tastes like the ice cream i would eat growing up.”

“I absolutely love this spot .. IV been to a few and this is by far the best .. Aside from the outdoor seating not regularly cleaned..I love going to this Posh ..”
“The best quesadillas I have eaten in the USA and even better than the ones I have tried in Mexico. The service is excellent and the food is unmatched, spectacular.”
“Amazing burger, amazing tastes, the best cheese burger I have ever had in Falafel flame Hayward mission blvd. I strongly recommend this area for everyone Best of luck Hashmatullah faqiri”
“Wanted to give this local coffee shop a try. Located on a very busy street, it was nice that they had a small parking lot located next door. Once inside, the coffee shop is pretty small and gives off homey vibes. It took sometime for them to get to us but you can tell the coffee is made with care. Ordered the Mexican hot chocolate mocha. 10/10. It wasn't too sweet or too coffee tasting. It was a perfect balance. I will be coming back to get it again!”

“One of our favorite spots in Hayward for a quick and delicious bite whether in passing or planning to stay a while. Awesomely friendly staff and owners. If you haven’t been yet, please do yourself a favor.”
“I love this place! The guy always behind the counter is super friendly & helpful. And his wife definitely knows how to bake. I’ve never had anything but yummy here. Especially the cream puffs! They also bake their own Persian bread, which is incredibly hard to find in the East Bay. Highly recommend don’t listen to crazy bitter customers =)”
“Absolutely the best bbq Ive ever had in my life. Period.I come from a region known for tri tip and I was blown away by how good this one is and how it easily beat what Ive known to be really good tri tip.I hate potato salad, but the potato salad here changed my mind. I love it.You can taste all the seasoning in all the food here. Mind blowing.I will be making this my go-to spot for myself, family, and friends for years to come.Fyi this is a typical bbq smokehouse, so make sure you come early as everything runs out and the place closes when all is out (as you do when the food is this good).Also amazing owner and family, made me feel like I was hanging out with friends at the cookout.”
“Great Thai in the East bay! I have a go-to delivery Thai place closer to my house but I wanted to give a new place a try. Chai Thai has a great menu, from appetizers to curries to noddles. I ordered Pad Thai with pork, side of fried eggs and an order or chive cakes (gui chai). The food arrived ready to eat and all was delicious. The Pad Thai had great flavor. I love when you get a nice portion of each of the ingredients; meat to tofu to eggs to green onion to sprouts. Each bite had everything. Can't wait to order again from Chai Thai!”
“Good food. If you’re looking for ambiance or full attention from a waiter or hostess, you’re not gonna get it. I am impressed with the one man show. Our waters were refilled and our food did take some time, but that’s not his fault. Good food takes time. This is a no frill type place. If you enjoy talking to your date or your friends, let’s just say this place won’t rush you out. My ribeye is very good, it was a thick cut with marble and $38 is an unheard of price these days. My hubby raves about his rack of lamb many times. We didn’t order much but we definitely got food coma. Didn’t get a chance to order dessert. Credit card machine didn’t work so luckily we had cash.”
Outdoor Dining
“This place is in an old strip mall shopping center. It used be a salvadorian restaurant before and they were ok. This place is much better. The food tastes pretty good . The burritos are huge and the tacos are regular sized tortillas( not street taco sized) and they were loaded with meat. Customer service was good. There's really not much seating her but it's OK I always take it to go. They have good salsas and sliced cucumbers. They also have pickled onions with habeneros (which are delicious) and slice pickled jalapeños. I think this will be my new go to spot for Mexican food.Parking: Lots of parking here”
“Cozy and comfy atmosphere amazing Cherry Danish and vanilla latte. The breakfast panini is also another favorite of mine. Love this place and definitely recommend visiting!”
“You can go inside or out because they have tables and chairs outside. Good beers. Live music on the weekends. Smoking OK. My friends and I had a very good time outside listening to the music. No food, but you can bring your own.”
“The best mexican food I've ever had and the nicest customer service. As someone who eats vegetarian try their veggie burrito. Just a bunch of dad's working here trying to feed people like a family. Highly recommend their churros too and horchata. My fiance also loves their chicken tacos and the chicken super burrito.Vegetarian options: Veggie burrito, tacos, churros, quesdillas”
“My first time ordering pizza from this restaurant. OMG!! The best by far for any pizza place around! We also had desserts which were also yummy! Will definitely be going back soon.”
“I had breakfast with my family here today and the service was really good, food was warm and on time. I'm definitely coming back as a costumer I recommend this place. Waiting time wasn't as long specially because the place was full and I still got seated and served as I expected.”
“Probably one of the cleanest and nicest interiors of any Mexican restaurant I've been to. There's plenty of parking on the street and the parking lot attached to it has several spots as well. The indoors has quite a bit of seating and the service and food are unbelievable. I called in my order and the pick up process was as smooth as can be. We were so hungry we didn't even take pics! We ordered a super shrimp burrito wet and it definitely lived up to the name. I will say, being from New Orleans, I've never found anywhere that has large jumbo quality shrimp like in the south. I can't knock them for it but it did seem the burrito was heavy on all the other toppings and the shrimp was very small and relatively scarce. Overall the burrito was amazing, but I am still holding out for a place that has large jumbo sized shrimp rather than the smaller ones in the Bay Area. The other order was a Carne Asada burrito wet, and from what I heard it was delicious and was rated a 7/10. I'm glad I came across this place and I definitely plan to try them again in the future. Give them a shot!”
“Finally got a chance to stop by as it is a little bit off the beaten path. Ordered a 4 piece wings (Korean spicy), fries, and bulgogi kimbap. Wings were saucy and good. Fries were thin and crispy. The bulgogi kimbap was fresh and tasty. I actually drove back on the way home for another order of the kimbap. Nothing survived long enough for a photo.”
“Was in the neighborhood & got hungry. Was heading 2 Sonic's & Seen Amy's grill & decided 2 give it a try. I ordered a breakfast sausage sandwich & blueberry waffles. I just finished the food now & it was great! ? would def recommend & will be back again! Thank you! #HazyJavi on all music apps!”

“The tacos are fire, burrito is amazing. Best i've ever had anywhere. Service is quick and fast and the workers there very polite and nice. Outside scenery is awesome, they have their own seating area if you wanna order sit and eat and enjoy. Nothing about this place disappoints. 10/10 would come again a thousand times”
“Just tried two delicious pot pies from Pot Pie Paradise & Deli. The flavor in the crust to the flavor in the pie both compliment each other. They are reasonably priced allowing me to try many more as there are over 30 choices from beef, pork, chicken, turkey, lamb, seafood and vegan just to name a few. The pot pie desserts look amazing as well. I can't wait to visit again.”
“I love Nick the Greek, this location is newer and very clean - it's also right across from Chabot and next to a boba spot which means lots of foot traffic sometimes. I highly recommend coming here because they never fail to pack the bowls with so much food, the service is also great as they're kind and friendly! If you're a newcomer, I recommend getting the combo beef/lamb bowl and maybe get some fries or hummus with pita on the side! It's a very filling meal as it comes with rice and many vegetables in the bowl - which I love! I'm really getting a good amount of food for the price. Parking is ample, there is a lot of seating and it is perfect to bring large groups. Highly recommend coming here!”
“I'm a regular customer at Teaspoon, overtime getting to know the crew, they started to get to know me and even memorized my order. every time is a warm welcome with a smile and sometimes my drink is ready before I walk in, overall they make my day and it is a blessing to be their customer.”
“Food is great’ ! Fast service. The Chili is very good. I had the la Ensenada sandwich and it was absolutely amazing!! Will definitely return!! I rate this a 10 out of 5 :)”
“Best food ever. I come here as often as I can and bring a new person so they can get addicted as well . Fish BOMB, lamb BOMB, short ribs BOMB. not super greasy either. Perfect stuff you can tell it's high quality”
“My husband and I love to eat here. Everything is very tasty. The only thing I do want to say is that I ordered the Risotto with prawns and it was delicious but my only complaint is that I only received 4 prawns in my plate. For the price we paid, I feel It was not worth it. I think there should’ve been more prawns in it. Other than that, the service is great and the restaurant is very nice.”
“Literally just burning gas looking for a place to eat, before I noticed this East Bay eats sign. I go in and sift through the menus of DIFFERENT kitchens. Yes different kitchens. I come upon Sacred Pig, a BBQ spot. Low and behold the food was good. I ordered a 3 meat combo, chicken, ribs, and pork belly. Sides were mac&cheese, and potatoe salad. The ribs were in my opinion cooked perfectly. The pork belly delicious. The potato salad was a hit. An what can I say about that yard bird, off the grill so yum yum. Definitely made it into my top 5 BBQ spots. Now I have to buy an energy drink because I'm losing this 1v2 against Itis, and Sandman.”
Online Reservation Available
“I only ordered takeout from here, and those small encounters with staff have been pleasant. They are friendly and welcoming. The food is delicious. I appreciate the pickled vegetables they add, which brings brightness to a sometimes heavy meal (I tend to go for something especially cheesy). Highly recommend!”
“Most definitely best Italian food I’ve had very authentic the service is wonderful the stuffed mushrooms are amazing that’s my go to as appetizers I have always tried their specials of the day their seafood all is very fresh They have a very wide wine selection definitely recommended 100%”
“One of my favorite places to eat I have been here many times with my family. My family says that I am obsessed with this food from here. I think it's true, but I also think that you should also try this food because it's really good I think it's one of the best places in the bay area for this kind of food. I think it's great.”
“if you're looking for a good chinese food place this is perfect, great service, great vibe the server is always making sure we are good the bad reviews must be super old i was very impressed i recommend this spot to everyone who looking for some fire chinese food ! i showed my parents this place and now they go by themself without me lol.”

“My favorite restaurant in Hayward! So good and such nice staff. Food is always delicious and they are super fast! The prices are great and you get a great portion. I recommend it to everyone!”
“Service was terrific. It was fairly quiet for Saturday lunch, and the perfect place for sit down meal with 3 generations of family. The building is old, and it was reminiscent of my favorite childhood Chinese restaurant in Belmont, Hong Kong Restaurant (aka Hong Kong House of Feast). Great River is the only restaurant I've visited since that makes an amazing Twice Cooked Pork. As mentioned by others, the Hot and Sour Soup is delicious, as was their Mongolian Beef. Pot Stickers were good, I like them a bit more pan-fried but that's me. BBQ pork fried rice was delicious, but I wanted it to be just a bit more eggy. The family loved their Walnut Prawns, but that's never a dish I've enjoyed so can't speak first-hand! I look forward to trying the foil-wrapped chicken recommended by another Yelper!! Price and Portions were well-worth it.”
“Came here with some friends right before their happy hour ended but Gina was so nice and decided to honor it for us anyhow! She also brought us soooo many bonchons (note you do have to order an entree for bonchons) We ordered a lot of food which did take some time to trickle out but we understand as Gina seems to be the only server that night. Korean pancake - 4.5/5 I loved this one cause it was thick and very crispy. My friend did say she prefers the pancake at Sisters House tho because it's thinner there Tofu soup - 3.5/5 it was a lil underwhelming and not salty enough and I feel it was missing a little depth of flavor. My friend and I both prefer the tofu soup at Sisters House BBQ Pork Sizzling Platter - wasn't very well charred. I don't usually get sizzling platters but the ones at Sisters House is better The fried chicken - 4.5/5 very good! I liked the crispiness of the chicken and inside was juicy. You do have to pay extra $2 for flavoring or for it to be crispy so keep that in mind. We did dip this into our tteokbokki/sausage sauce which Gina recommended Tteokbokki/sausage skewers - 3/5 I thought it was just okay for the price of what it was lol. I don't love the sausage but the tteokbokki did have a nice lil crisp to it on the outside but with that familiar chew once you get to the center”
“Like a blast from the past! Terrific St.Louis ribs, smoked to perfection. Try the Red Sauce it's like nothing I have ever had down in the Southern U.S., and adds a unique taste to the meat. Ruby my server was as pleasant as my meal was. And the restaurant itself was clean and organized and tastefully non updated. Sit at the counter to get the real feel here. I will be back on my next business trip here in Hayward. ❤”
“It was yummy, like always. It's quite unfortunate that they closed their restaurant in San Francisco's Stonestown Galleria. The endless Toscana soup and bread sticks are always a winner. Their drinks are delicious.”
“We love ordering the Honey Walnut Prawns party platter alongside the Fried Rice combination party size.It feeds a good amount of people and our guests really enjoy it as well.”
“I came here for lunch for 2 and it was great! All the fish was really fresh and tasty. The service was fast, though maybe because I was 1 of 4 parties there that weekday. My wife just wanted to order a bunch of lion king rolls, but said that something tasted not quite like her favorite lion king rolls, but other than that, we thought it was all great!”
“No frills restaurant with friendly staff. We arrive right at opening so we expected it to take some time for them to set up. Ordered the triple combo and Food was hot and fresh. Thank ”
“After we ordered within 5 to 10 minutes all 3 were ready. The nice lady put soup on our mini cup. That was a good customer service, but the wonton soup did not taste good at all. Next time I won't order that. Combination Fried Rice was good and not oily. The fried rice here is better than Asian Delight, Yummy Restaurant & Little Namking. Also their honey walnut prawns is very tasty, soft and has the sweet sauce on it. It's perfectly cooked and not hard. So far they have the best walnut shrimp out of all the Asian restaurants I went to. Little namking walnut prawns is very hard and it was so hard that we couldn't even eat it and it didn't had any flavors to it. Also combination fried rice had a decent portion wish they put more and walnut shrimp had 11 pieces only. Great experience here today and my family that moved out of Hayward use to visit this restaurant a lot. The wings is good here but salty.”
“Just found out about this Dim Sum place near Hesperian. It's a great place to grab lunch or hang out with family and friends. Kind staff, but the wait time for serving is hit or miss.”
“My family ordered 4 small trays and 4 large trays for a reception of 40 people. The food was excellent and flavorful, presentation was great. There was plenty left over for everyone to take home a plate or 2. The owner Eddie was helpful and accommodating. We would highly recommend and use their offerings again.”
“I was craving sushi so I came to naked fish. I ordered two rolls, a philadelphia roll (you know a familiar favorite, it was excellent) and a Jackson roll (super duper delicious). They were both so good and fresh! I had to order a third which was the iron Man roll. Excellent excellent excellent. Service is spectacular. Super nice people, super chill atmosphere. Nice contemporary art. feels like a homie place. I will be back soon to try out the kitchen foods!”
24 Hour Restaurants
“I work late so me and my husband were on the hunt for something that wasn't fast food. It's Friday night so we were expecting it to be busy around this time but right when we walked in, we were greeted warmly by our server Amanda and escorted to a table. She was funny, sweet and attentive! She always knew when to check on us! Our food was good, I got the cheese crusted sourdough burger with onion rings. The burger could use just a bit more seasoning on the patty itself, but I liked the spicy honest mustard. My husband got fish & chips. He said the batter was a bit sweet, but he liked it with the zesty cocktail sauce that tasted like it had a bit of pepper or wasabi to it. Very different! Overall, a very good experience! Thank you again Amanda! You were doing awesome tonight, not just with me, but with all your customer!”
“Of all the Jack In The Boxes located between S. Hayward and San Leandro, their food and service is, by far, the best! It's always clean -- even the bathrooms; cashiers are both prompt and friendly!”
“Very quiet, very peaceful, very fresh and delicious food,definitely no nonsense, and definitely no foolish actions, and behavior,, tolerated and/or accepted, either.I like that.???”
“Order the #29 Grilled Sourdough Swiss. For some odd reason this specific location makes it best. The bread is toasted correctly, unlike the other locations nearby. The sandwich includes two eggs, bacon, American & Swiss cheese, ham, and sourdough bread toasted to perfection.This, a coffee, and a tiny brick of deep fried potato truly hits the spot.”
“I generally rate McDonald's as 5-stars because you know what to expect a McDonald's always delivers. Not saying it's great food or awesome service. My chief complaint about this particular McDonalds is that it is not all that conveniently located.”

“A very nondescript spot with heavy construction in front of the restaurant but oh am I glad I ate here!! The Kalbi was absolutely delicious!!! And I ate every single piece and wanted more! But alas I was too stuffed and can now only reminisce on how good my lunch was today.....”

“My husband recommended this place, and it was amazing. Literally the best churros that I have ever had. We went to him on Tuesday at 12pm, and his Text number works. +1 (510) 472-4895”
“The homemade ice cream is by far the best I have ever had. It’s like your eating fruit that’s been iced. Then the Tortas…yum… and top it off with one of those ‘gazpachos’ (fruit cotail like no other) with that lemon salt and Chile stuff… Heck Yeah I recommend!”
“driving down Main Street yesterday looking for a Dunkin' Donuts and see this cute little shop very well lit inviting. the Portuguese sweet breads are out of this world the custard tarts are to die for this place is a gem.”
“everything is absolutely perfect, to the drinks, to the people, and to the environment. People here are so lovely, especially this one lady who is always in a good mood. My fav drink is probably the banana shake. GO HERE!!!”
“I came across this place while I was door dashing. The menu was unique and the sandwiches sounded good. I got the Tom & Jerry on a Dutch Crunch roll. It came exactly how I ordered it and tasted amazing. There is plenty of sauce on it which I love. The bread was nice and soft too! I wish there was one closer to my house. I'd probably eat here more often. Definitely gonna order again.”
“Their Chole bhature are the best in the whole Bay Area. Try it once and you can tell the difference. I have ordered it many times and will continue to do so but I have tried their other food items which were just ok. Their naans needs improvement. Not sure what happened but when I took them home and tried to eat them, they were basically stretchy and unchewable. I hope they fix this problem. When eaten in the store, they are very good.”
“been coming here since thr late 70s some of the women have been working here for a ver long time. all the newer employees at both Hayward locations are always very friendly and the dog ate always on point. Rarely go to the Kaspers. it cant hold a candle to Caspers. always go with th CASPERSWheelchair accessibility: two large tables set aside for wheelchair access and a ramp to the door”
“My favorite is the Chile verde with rice and beans plus an over easy egg. They have two different hot sauces one is mild and the other one hot so glad Rosy's opened up but there's times where they are busy and that definitely a good sign. My grandson loves the pancakes and waffles plus the breakfast sausage???”
“My favorite little breakfast spot , service is good , price is very affordable definitely will keep coming back. If you enjoy eggs and bacon or just brekky in general check this spot out I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. - Food god”
“As we continued our cake tasting adventures we discoved this bakery and met with the owner: Jorge Flores who has been at this location for 18 years with 16 employees! An amazing cake artist who also studied with the REAL Cake Boss; Buddy Valastro! Jorge's cake was moist with a real "killer" buttercream. We bought pastries, (try the bread pudding...yummmm) AND special ordered my Birthday Cake from him which will be in the shape of my Westie Dog. I will post it in May when I get it. The display cases were fully stocked on a Monday with heavy foot traffic, this is a true landmark that merits our support with a kind, gentle, talented owner who cares about his product and staff. There no cake he cannot create”
“Everything is fine except for the girl who is serving today..Smiles do not cost nor are they an obligation, but good treatment is courtesy. (You need a little)Even so, my daughter really likes it and I will do my best to spend a good time with her.”
“The little spot was full of surprises. I came here to meet up a friend and everything here was great! The staff were so friendly and made sure we were ok and even helped up with our food. I orders the pork bulgogi and also the sausage stew. FYI pork bulgogi is a little spicy so if you get it expect a little heat. It was very good though. As for the sausage stew. You might want to share this one with a friend because it is a lot. Perfect for those cold days or if you have a pretty bad hang over. This place definitely reminds me of my grandmas cooking when I was little. I'm so glad I came in to try it. I'll be back when I'm in the area.”
“Amazing and wonderful place to have a meal. I made it special by celebrating my best friend's birthday here and we feasted like kings on a variety of different dishes from pupusas to chicharron botana and I highly advise you try the Atole de elote = OUT of this world creamy, light and so very tasty! I took one home because one was not enough!! Love this place, best drinks as well with a full bar on site!”
“This place is amazing and has a rich history. The food is incredible, and Ignacio, our host, was fantastic. When it comes to Mexican cuisine, it can be challenging to find authentic flavors and quality ingredients, but this place nails it. Their carnitas are delicious, and their secret salsa is smoky and flavorful. If you're looking for an authentic Mexican dining experience, this is the place to go. We enjoyed a la carte nopales and carnitas with a traditional Mexican coke. I forgot to take a picture, but trust me the presentation was great, and their prices are a bargain for the area and the quality of their food and service.”
“This is a good place to eat the food is fresh the teriyaki chicken is delicious. We ordered our food on the way by the time we arrived our food was ready.The service was also very good, I enjoyed the salad. We ate there at the restaurant, the entire meal was great.”
“Great portions, great quality, fast service, reasonable prices. It's my favorite sushi place in the area. Go have a feast!Parking: Plenty of street parking but also nearby free parking lot”
“I came here for lunch for 2 and it was great! All the fish was really fresh and tasty. The service was fast, though maybe because I was 1 of 4 parties there that weekday. My wife just wanted to order a bunch of lion king rolls, but said that something tasted not quite like her favorite lion king rolls, but other than that, we thought it was all great!”
“The food has a true Sinaloan flavor and style, the service is quite good although a little limited to the demand it usually has. The place is presentable but small, its style of music and atmosphere is 100% Sinaloan. It is currently undergoing some renovations which does not give a good view of the place. The prices are below average when seafood costs less than 30 dollars per person.Parking: In front of the restaurant”

“Let me start with, IGNORE ALL THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS!!! THEY WOULDN'T KNOW AUTHENTIC MEXICAN FOOD IF IT BIT THEM....THEY NEED TO TAKE THEIR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE TO TACO BELL,WHAT THEY CONSIDER REAL MEXIN FOOD!!! BUT seriously though, this is hands down the Best and ONLY Authentic Mexican food in the bay area!!! I moved here (to Bay area) in 2017 from TEXAS where I was born and raised and have searched high and low for an even remotely good Mexican restaurant....in my opinion,all the others are watered down versions!! The chili rellenos were awesome!!! The rice was great and the beans were fantastic!!!! A little pricey,yes but WELL WORTH IT!! There is a reason this restaurant has been here for so many years!!! Do yourself a favor and try this place out,despite the negative reviews..... you'll be glad you did!!!As for me.... I'm headed over there now to snag me some chili rellenos....? Ohhhh and the salsa?!?!?!....... Do yourself a favor and order extra!!!”
“We go to this location every now and then as it is conveniently located for us and we try not to do a lot of fast food. The dining room seems to be always clean. The customer service is usually good as most of the workers are friendly. There is a medium-sized parking lot so there is always free onsite parkingParking: Plenty of parking, around 20-30 spots”
“It is what you expect. If you like Carl's, you'll like what you get here. I love coming by to get my favorite burgers. The staff was quick as usual. The prices are getting a little too high. I almost spent $20 on a medium meal.This is not exclusive to Carl's. We're seeing this across a bunch of other fast food chains.”
“My wife and I meet with our bookkeeper for lunch, we ordered the coconut for drink and chicken katsu. The person helping us ordered was very helpful explaining options and helped with completing the orderFood was fresh and coconut ? deliciousI would definitely recommend this location”
“The proteins with Vega and macaroni are so good. I love meats combo that really helped my body healthy. I have so much respect to workers doing their job, and doing fantastic work on this meal.”
“Tasty. Very nice service staff. The spicy chicken tenders are the bestVegetarian options: Lots of options possible.Kid-friendliness: Lots of kid friendly items.Parking: Lots of parkingWheelchair accessibility: First floor easy acessDietary restrictions: Easily able to modify anything.”
“I like Wendy's the burgers are fresh fries are decent. What I really wanted to try was the new orange frosty ?. Being I like orange Sherbet thought maybe the frosty would taste similar.Yes the frosty is good its like the old 50-50 bars.? Orange on the outside and vanilla on the inside a great combination.The frosty is good. I liked it could use a tad more orange flavor but what the hell it was good anyway.”
“This location has restored my faith in good quality food and service being served at a Carls Jr. I still won’t go to any others though!! The food is always fresh and the staff is always friendly and polite. One thing I appreciate is that they always have house dressing which is far better than buttermilk ranch. I have eaten here more times in the past year than I have at any other location in 10 years easy.Thank you so much for not only being a great Carls Jr but a great local restaurant in general.”
“I like their Belgian waffles the food is always hot, and you don't have to wait very long. They have a kids menu.Kid-friendliness: Servers are really nice and they have a kid"s menu.”
“Food at El Polo Loco is outstanding! I never had any problem with there food the only thing is there wait time when there really busy especially in the drive thru and that's understandable . But overall in the end the food makes up for it .? ? And to all the employees that makes that happen .A great big Thank You and keep up the great work your in my top 3 of places eat .?”
“I have a question. Can you tell me why the Burger King on e12th in Oakland doesn't have a value MENU? VERY BASIC MENU. NOTHING NEW. EVERYTHING ON THE MENU is about half the price here as compared to the Oakland East 12th street location. All single items start AT ABOUT 3 DOLLARS there's like 3 items to choose from. Is it because of the homeless people nearby? To keep them at bay?”
“I have come here many times, for the kfc love the original recipe 8 piece thighs bucket hella good with large Mac and cheese ! Service is excellent, restaurant is nice n clean and prices are decent. Entire staff does a great job! Don't pay attention to those haters leaving bad reviews.”
“I've been coming here for years and the food is always good and consistent. Service and prices are good. My favorites are the bacon ultimate cheeseburger on sourdough bread, the extreme sausage sandwich and Jack's spicy chicken sandwich! I also like the fact they have a big menu a variety of food to choose from.”
“The food is good when the order is correct but when it's wrong they are very nice about fixing it unlike some locations I have been toParking: Parking wouldn't be an issue if I wasn't in a big flatbed tow truck”
“My first exposure to Nigerian food! The beef suya was really tender and the spice on it was heavenly. I think it's going to take me several visits to master eating egusi with fufu, but that was very tasty too. The Suup! -- soursop soda is delicious and refreshing. The employees here are really friendly and helpful, and it has a great relaxed atmosphere.”
“Deciitontet this new spot out. They have lots of options online menu and 2 kiosk to order yourself inside. They also have catering options. I tried the pizza samosa which were good and spicy. Not pizza flavored they have a nice Indian taste but spicy so not really for kids but delicious. Smaller than most Samosas about the size of pizza rolls. The lamb gyro was tasty and I enjoyed it. No fat on the meat it was thinly sliced had lots of meat. They serve drinks, smoothies,juices,bowls,salads,soups, sandwichws,gyro, really everything. The juice was refreshing and all natural veggies and fruit. No sweeteners unless upon request. I was also gifted a tiny chocolate pudding to try. It was really delicious and fresh my daughter enjoy it. I'd try something different next time lots of choices.”
“Everything is good there, food is really good service and atmosphereWe love that placeParking: Parking is good there are it's a shopping center you can find parking everywhere sometimes I find parking I'm front or on the side of the restaurantKid-friendliness: It's good for the kids also you can write on the booth wich is cool or you can write something anywhere you find a spot to write something”

“It’s a small restaurant with only 4 to 5 tables. The interior feels old but very clean and cute. The server is a cute Japanese grandma and the chef is a cute Japanese grandpa. Food presentation is humble, it makes you wonder is this gonna be good at first, but after you take a bite, you know it’s good quality. My friend and I ordered the sashimi dinner plate and two sushi rolls, all very tasty and priced reasonably. Really likes the food the vibe here and will definitely come back.”
“Solid Mexican food truck in the industrial area of Hayward! I recommend their burritos and the tacos, especially the shrimp tacos if you're a fan of seafood. They're really friendly, and get your order ready quickly. Great place to stop by for a lunch break.”
“Hector and his staff are awesome food is great service is great we go here once a week for lunch and it's always great,every dish we order never disapoints, they have a full bar and they whip up some great drinks and cold beers, I recommend visiting here and enjoying some great food and drinks along with great service...”
“We ended up here tonight after a bad experience at Chuck E Cheese in the center next door. The service was quick and the food very tasty. We decided to order more for the folks at home.”
“This is a small little bakery and ice cream shop with focus on ube. There is no seating but it's cute inside.Ube cookies and cream milk shake was awesome and it's so pretty. Ice cream version on its own was also good. They let us sample the flavors too and ube was just the best one.We got strawberry lychee cupcake and ube cupcake. They were a tad too sweet for us.Flan cheesecake was great. Flan was also a bit too sweet but that's expected.”
“Just recently discovered this place, dropped by a couple times after my weekend workout. The lady at the counter is super sweet, always thrown in a donut with the sandwich. Think I'll be a regular from now on :)”
“Oh my!!! What a great find!! Delicious and authentic food. Good portions and competitive prices. Call ahead to make sure they have what you want to eat. They sell out fast.Parking: This is a food truck in a parking lot.Kid-friendliness: Low key no fuss atmosphere. Only three tables available when we were there. And kids were happy.”
“We love this place! It's a great location and it has a great outdoor garden/bar patio. In the summer/spring it's fun to go and see the bands play in the patio. Great place to met friends for a drink and some laughs. Drink prices are on the cheaper end.”
“Haven't been at this Asia Delight for a while, but the food was fresh, hot and very TASTY!!! Had the sweet and sour pork, salt & pepper fish with chow mein, but also added spicy and sweet chicken wings that were AMAZING!!! ? Highly recommend trying them! ❤️”
“the services was great the first time the second they mess up my order and was refunded with no questions asked I'm happy to have customer service like that.”
“I was pretty impressed with the quality of the food and the freshness. Tasted very delicious, my whole family was satisfied and everyone went for seconds and some thirds. If your in Hayward and you want to eat some tasty Chinese food, then go to China ”
“The only fast food hot dog place that sends out coupons in the mail haha and they chili dogs are not bad add mustard packets oh and add cheese to all of them, game changer”
“If you’re looking for the most BANG for your BUCK then THIS IS THE SPOT!Variety, taste, and service 5/5I want to keep this place all to myself but they deserve the business !”
“I have been passing by this place for a few months and kept saying to myself that I would stop in and try it out. Finally, I had some extra time on my way home, so I stopped in and ordered some food. Very old fashioned establishment that reminded me of a Foster's Freeze. They have plenty of options for food and desserts. I went with the quarter pound bacon cheeseburger and spicy fries. The food came out piping hot and delicious! The price was a little more than I was expecting as the burger, fries, and a drink ran me about $20! I should've grabbed pics of the menu since most of the featured ones are pretty old. I saw a few people eating these ice cream cones that had a mountain of soft serve coming out the top! Definitely need to try one next time. The burger and toppings were super fresh and well cooked. I would've liked my bun toasted a little more. The bacon had a great texture and tasted amazing, not that floppy, thin, tasteless stuff that some burger joints use. The spicy fries were potato wedges with a sort of cajun seasoning that gave them a very slight spice. They were crispy but also pillowy and delicious!Plenty of parking behind the restaurant. I will definitely be back again, but more so as a treat to myself.”
“This is my second time at this restaurant and the customer service is always great. The food just as good too! Parking is not too bad especially being downtown Hayward. I definitely recommend this restaurant!”
“So new owners and much friendlier people working there and the pizza is amazing took me back the the east coast, crust was crispy the sauce is on point. They are doing a great job so far…I can say “ I take back my old review from the last time I went….Horrible customer service guy in back with really bad haircut is really rude with no people skills whatsoever. However the lady in there is very nice but always look over worked and tired poor thing”
“Make sure to come and dine in at Toto’s Grill in Hayward! It definitely bring satisfaction to your cravings. When we miss filo food this place is the real deal. Can’t fault it from decors to little details, every food they serve is exquisite to our taste! Highly recommended *****”
“Fiji Sweets & Snacks opened where Donutland once was. Small shelf area. Didn't see any made in house sweets. Ordered lamb curry to go. Ready in 10ish minutes. Store had the usual rice, grains, condiments, cooking oils, teas, snacks, house made snacks. Menu of food to go in corner had no prices..not too legible. Buys: curry lamb(10.99) -didn't taste curry per se. Liquid tasted like a chili. Burning localized in mouth. Mix of tender & semi tender lamb pieces bone-in. A piece had bone marrow. Bongo baked cheese puffs (3.99) -made in Fiji. Baked puffs were melt in mouth. Cheese just a sprinkling of cheese powder, neglible taste. Lots of artificial chemicals Fried green peas (2.50) -made in house of peas, vegetable oil, salt, spices, chili. Slight burning sensation. 4.5 stars: small space. Doesn't look organized.”
“Food is good and price is very reasonable. Food are always made as you order it... always fresh. Staff are very friendly and service is very good. Ambiance is okay, lots of space and clean.”
“Got catered lunch from here.Pros: Really good naan, fresh rice and delicious tofu korma.Cons: The cauliflower could have had a little more flavor and their mango pudding is not the best.”
“Realized I forgot to take photos of the food because I was enjoying every bite! It was my first time here and we had a large group of 16. Staff was friendly and accommodating for us. Food came out fast and each dish was told to us as it came out so we knew what we were eating. Portions were good I especially loved the green beans and the salt and pepper pork chop. I didn't even have to ask for more water as they came around multiple times throughout the dinner. For dessert they even brought out mango pudding which was a nice surprise. Would definitely come back to try dim sum.”
“Just went by to get a bite , been there one time since the reopening , giving them another chance, since service sucked and beer was warm, used to be a regular. This time around it was a lot better. Maybe because there was hardly anyone there? Food was good ,service was great. The beer still needs to be colder. It's getting better I'll go back. I live close by. Overall check it out if you haven't been it's a cool spot to hang out and have a beer and movies right across the street.”
“This place is still open n it is great! Food is good n tasty! Don't know why it is listed closed.... But it is alive n open! ..lol... Don't judge a book by His it's color...it is good!Buffet style dining.. located (used to be a tacobell back then) between a mini strip mall and gas station on Tennyson rd.”
“Normally we enjoy and recommend Five Guys but today they fell short of our expectations. Ordered a plain cheese burger for K and got home to find they had wiped mustard and ketchup off meat and sent it with is as plain. Food service need to be careful with that practice if people are allergic-law suit waiting to happen. K went without lunch rather go back for a new burger.”
“I have already visited this place several times and I always have a good impression.... the food is delivered quickly and so are the drinks... the lady who served me was super friendly... and super attentive! Thank you.. ??Kid-friendliness: I love that they have a children's menu ”
“I was going to eat here Sunday April 7th but they were closed. Then I saw a sign that said they were going to be closed for a week. Today Tuesday April 16, 2024, now over a week since I saw that sign, it was still closed. This time there was a sign that said something to the effect to all our loyal customers, after 20 years it has come to an end. I didn't get out of my car and I was not that close so I didn't read everything. But from what I thought I saw and read on the sign on their door, I guess this place is closed. I think I didn't want to get out of my car and read it carefully, because I want to think it is not closing. Then as I was on Hesperian driving away, there was a banner on the side of restaurant facing Hesperian and it was advertising a buffet during lunch so I was not sure if they had buffets during lunch as I had not dined there for lunch and I don't remember seeing it when I went for dinner a few weeks ago. The drawing of the food on the sign looked like Asian Food. I am bummed, it was my go to sushi place, so I will miss it. Well I came back again today to read the sign .”
“Definitely going to go back here again sushi’s are fresh and taste so good! My wife and my daughter enjoyed it the last time we went there for lunch. They have variety of sushi on their menu and the staff are really friendly. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ -donpinoytv”
“My significant other and I love getting pizza here. The owners are all family and they are very kind, great prices and they make some of the best pizza we've ever had. We come at least 3-4 times a week for a pizza.”
“Quick bite for lunch, ordered chicken and shrimp combo, the shrimp was very fresh, perfectly cooked, the staffs were very nice and quick service. Price was reasonable!”
“My bf and I wanted to get lunch together and we were in the mood for some burgers. We always seen this spot but never got a chance to try it out. We were able to find parking in the free parking lot located one the rear side of the building. We were greeted right away and were shown the menu and all food options they had.. decision decisions! My bf always relies on me to pick out his food because he always says I have great taste in food! So I decided to order him the Monster Burger and I ordered myself Beyond Burger(vegan). I absolutely knew my bf would love his burger since that man can eat! I wanted to try something new something I never get so I wanted to try out their vegan burger. With an order of sweet potato fries! My absolute favorite type of fries!! My bf ate all food and was very impressed and very satisfied with my choice of food I picked out for him! I absolutely fell in love with my vegan burger, couldn't believe I could hardly tell it was not a real meat! I felt very light after my burger and didn't feel that heavy feeling on my stomach! Definitely wouldn't mind coming back for round two!!”
“Subway never fails to make a good sandwich. I have been coming to this location for a few years. This location is always very clean and well maintained. The workers offer a fast and friendly service. They never fail at making a good sandwiches.”
“This taco truck is amazing. Everything you can expect from a taco truck. Some things this one does better than the others are their homemade tortillas and also the assortment of salsas. All the items come with a good amount of meat. The only slightly bad thing is the price. Tacos are a bit pricey compared to the others, but in the end, it's still worth it. I would recommend coming here.”
“After a long day of real estate hustle, I recommended to my coworkers United Mexican restaurant, craving something hearty to combat our jet lag. And let me tell you, it was a culinary oasis!From the moment we stepped in, the aroma of spices greeted us warmly. We dove into a feast fit for weary travelers: menudo, sopa de 7 mares, caldo de res, and Agua chiles rojos con mango. Each dish was a symphony of flavors, transporting us back to the vibrant streets of Mexico.What truly impressed us was the swift service. Despite our hunger-induced haste, the staff ensured our orders arrived promptly, allowing us to refuel efficiently.And let's not forget the pièce de résistance: the micheladas. Each sip was a refreshing burst of flavor, perfectly complementing our meal.As if the culinary experience wasn't enough, the restaurant had added some delightful backdrops, catering to the Instagram-savvy crowd. These picturesque spots added a touch of charm, enticing patrons to capture their dining moments for social media.In essence, United Mexican restaurant not only satisfied our cravings but also exceeded our expectations. It's a gem worth revisiting, especially for those seeking authentic Mexican fare with a side of aesthetic delight.”
“Carmen's has some of the best BBQ in the Bay Area. They have their own take on BBQ, so it might not be to everyone's liking. The brisket is very tasty, but you get chopped up pieces rather than the long strips of beef more typically found. They're hot sauce is hotter than most, and is my favorite. The greens are fantastic. The service is always kind and helpful.”
“This is a little power house of a restaurant. Excellent food traditional wise seems they specialize in Mexican seafood dishes we had the shrimp, tender and fresh. The dining area is small and comfy not real fancy but nicely done. You never know from looking at the outside that the inside food is definitely special and well prepared on large plates.Parking: Not much parking. Parking is tight. I think you can use the spots next door once that business es closes.”
“The store is very clean and there is a wide variety of food and vegetables, the prices are a little high.I didn't like the dough for tortillas, it's not corn, it's flour with water”
“My friend who's not Hispanic recommend it I hesitate because most non Hispanic can't tell the good taste of Mexican food. I was marvelous that the food was good and the taste was just right. The salsa with chips was just perfect. we ordered a molcajete combination which was delicious. My friends ordered fajitas and they both changed it the chicken for something else. Overall I'll be back :)”
“I come here for Taco Tuesdays and the tacos are pretty good. I normally get grilled chicken and carnitas. Carnitas is good and very oily lol but good No bad experience as of yet.”
“Overall the food was very good. Not crazy about the Miso soup, or sauce for the Katsu Chicken that was my only disappointment. The Sushi, was great. Next time we will order only Sushi. My favorite was the California Crunch, we ordered The Lion King this was also very yummy as well, The Deluxe California was my son's favorite ( Didn't care for it too much, California Roll ( this was ok but needs sesame seeds and a sauce to bring it up) we also ordered two Katsu Chicken, I didn't care for the sauce, that was disappointing considering how good the chicken was. We also ordered Sprite as our drinks (tasted like the syrup was almost out)My son didn't care for the ginger slices, he said they tasted different, they were ok, but not what we are accustomed too. Can't complain, it was our first time their. We will return, but only for Sushi.”
“I had the chicken parmesan. Sauce was a little thin but tasted pretty good. It was served with some penne pasta and vegetables that were both cooked just right. It seemed a little overpriced, but what isn't these days? Dinner and a glass of wine were just under 40 per person.”
“This may very well be the best Indian food in the entire Bay Area. Strongly recommend any of their kormas, it is by a very wide margin the tastiest korma I've had at countless Indian restaurants. It's totally worth it to order for delivery as well, and the prices are quite reasonable. Naan is very fresh and the cook they put on their meats is textbook. Do yourself a favor and give them a try, you won't regret it.”
“For the last several years, we have been going here in this branch, which is in Hayward close to target. I love going here because it's just pretty small compared to the other one of their competitor and I can still get everything that I need at the same time. The fact that I love doing my groceries at Island pacific and since they are inside the store. It's all a one stop shop, I always love their selections. The only thing I am disappointed is when you try to call them for advance orders no one is even answering the calls, but nonetheless, I still recommend them.”
“It's very delicious, the place is nice, only sometimes you have to wait a long time for a table... but it's worth the wait... I love margaritas. And it is a family place..”
“Kritika was so sweet and professional and gave the best customer service !! We really loved the garlic knots she recommended and a vegetarian pizza! She brought me marinera also ans was very fast and efficient! Definitely had amazing service thanks to Kritika !!!!Kid-friendliness: Yes”
“I went to them with a request to rent their party halls. The owners are very accommodating and they work with you to help you hold the event. Their catering menu offers many varieties and there is something for everyone. Again even with menu selections they offer you ideas based on the kind of group you have. I am really looking forward to our event at Mughal Restaurant party halls.I highly recommend this business.”
“I'm in town for one evening and very fortunate to find this restaurant. If managed correctly, customers can count on an outstanding meal. The food and atmosphere were A+. Only disappointment was the service. The cashier was in full conversation with another employee and made the line wait almost 6 minutes for her to address me. Was not greeted at all. Very odd and uncomfortable.”
“We were in from Minnesota December 10/17, staying at the fairfield Inn. Went over late and had the Mtveggiemore pizza with the artichoke and we added sausage. Seriously the best pizza we ever had. Omg! The best. Ever! From anywhere.. and we've had alot of pizzas in alot of different places. And the young man working was so pleasant, kind, funny. And very busy and us being tourists was very patient when we had no idea what we wanted. He suggested we try the one we got.”
“I went to this location on 10/29/2023 for a late lunch. This was my first time at this location. Round Table is my favorite pizza chain so I was glad that this location opened. I was craving pizza today and wanted to go somewhere with a salad bar, so I decided on Round Table today. I'm actually closer to another pizza chain but I prefer RoundTable. I went there and it took a few minutes for someone to come to the register to greet me. I did not think much of it because I remembered that there were Sunday football games going on and maybe other games, so I was sure they were swamped with orders. I appreciate people that work in restaurants and retail, it's not an easy job and plus they have to work on the days when others are out having fun. I think sometimes that is taken for granted, so I much appreciate the people working so that I can have a good dining experience. This location seems like it's more conducive for take out as it is very small inside so there are only a few tables. It feels more like a quick eat location. So if you want more ambiance and that medieval looking interior with booths/tables that are farther away from where they take your order, this location is not like that. But having mentioned that, you can still eat inside but it may not be as comfortable as it would at other locations. If you just quickly want to eat your food, it will be fine. I sat right underneath their flatscreen and I thought it was a bit loud, but I didn't say anything. It was nice to be able to look through the window. I was the only one dining in and I did notice they had a steady flow of customers picking up their orders, so they were busy. The cashier was polite and friendly. She made an order suggestion that gave me more value for my money and I appreciated that. I'm not sure what her name was but going off my receipt it was Mariella. I noticed she was polite to all the customers that came in. I enjoyed my pizza and my salad. I didn't feel like I broke the bank by choosing to have lunch here, which was good. I was able to get another meal out of it since I couldn't finish my pizza and with everything being so expensive, I appreciate that. I would definitely order from this location again.”
“The staff lacks maturity and were unable to assume responsibility for charging for 3 additional children. the staff went as far as reporting that I went the register and ordered several cards. I never went to the register until into was time to pay because the host brought the cards directly to me. They went as far as Giving me specific times that they said I was there at the register. ONE person arrived on time. so why would I make additional requests prior to tue arrival of my guest. Management, both named Jocelyn need to be reprimanded for the reporting they reviewed cameras and that it resulted in me being untruthful. I will be making a statement to cooperate to discuss the lack of honesty and poor quality of leadership those two possess.”
“If you want to skip the line, sit at the bar and Christina will take care of you on a Tuesday evening. The food and drinks came out on time, even after a power outage, and the experience is always different depending on who's serving.This was an unexpected outcome, but the food and service was phenomenal compared to other times!I recommend visiting between 4pm-7pm for best services!”

“I used to eat here all the time when I was a kid and I remembered it as a great place for a good burger. I’ve heard this place changed ownership and wanted to see if it’s still good as I remember. I got the Double Bulky Bacon Cheeseburger, with Fries and a butterscotch milkshake. I have to say the burger did not let me down. It was a pretty good size burger the meat was still juicy inside and it was a bit messy with their burger sauce but it added good flavor. It had shredded lettuce, tomato, and pickles as well. The fries were shoestring that was lightly seasoned with salt and they were still a little soft not too crispy which I like with those fries. If you like them crispy ask for them to be well done. The butterscotch milkshake was nice and thick, just wish it had more butterscotch flavor. Overall I really enjoyed everything and as far as price wise with all the price hikes everywhere else, it’s still a good deal for its price.”

“Great food and the best staff. No matter what time you go they are always friendly and care for you. The Al pastor wet burrito is literally the greatest thing of all time, especially with all the salsas they have available. This place is bomb.”
“Thank you Donut Factory! Great donuts and great service. Ordered via DoorDash and they were out of a particular item I ordered and wrote me a nice note apologizing and including a ton of extra items! Much appreciated”
“I've picked up their cinnamon bread from the local grocery and it is AMAZING! I fell in live at first sight, and taste! I've literally eaten almost a whole loaf by accident. Lol. It's so delectable and will melt in your mouth. It doesn't have an aftertaste like many packaged pastries and is fresh. I look forward to trying their other products. Do yourself a favor: if you see anything "Sweet Paradise", go ahead and buy it!!!”
“As someone from Asia, they have one of the best green curry and Pad See Ew in the Bay Area.(By no following the cult of adding bamboo shoot in the green curry??)”

“I love this place! The guy always behind the counter is super friendly & helpful. And his wife definitely knows how to bake. I’ve never had anything but yummy here. Especially the cream puffs! They also bake their own Persian bread, which is incredibly hard to find in the East Bay. Highly recommend don’t listen to crazy bitter customers =)”

“I found this place by chance while looking for Cajun style shrimp. The place is small and cozy. The flavors were there, the sauce is just a bit lighter and on the oily side than my regular place, but still tasty. The garlic noodles are also very good. My husband asked for chicken wings and they were decent, but nothing special. My biggest complaint is that I was trying to place my order over the phone for take out and the phone was not in service. I know these days you can place orders online, but I was driving so doing the call would have been much easier for me. & If you don't take phone orders that's fine, but then you shouldn't list the number as an option. The prices were fair, the service in person seems to be great so I plan on coming back and trying other things on their menu.”
“I had breakfast with my family here today and the service was really good, food was warm and on time. I'm definitely coming back as a costumer I recommend this place. Waiting time wasn't as long specially because the place was full and I still got seated and served as I expected.”
“I work late so me and my husband were on the hunt for something that wasn't fast food. It's Friday night so we were expecting it to be busy around this time but right when we walked in, we were greeted warmly by our server Amanda and escorted to a table. She was funny, sweet and attentive! She always knew when to check on us! Our food was good, I got the cheese crusted sourdough burger with onion rings. The burger could use just a bit more seasoning on the patty itself, but I liked the spicy honest mustard. My husband got fish & chips. He said the batter was a bit sweet, but he liked it with the zesty cocktail sauce that tasted like it had a bit of pepper or wasabi to it. Very different! Overall, a very good experience! Thank you again Amanda! You were doing awesome tonight, not just with me, but with all your customer!”
“Amazing and wonderful place to have a meal. I made it special by celebrating my best friend's birthday here and we feasted like kings on a variety of different dishes from pupusas to chicharron botana and I highly advise you try the Atole de elote = OUT of this world creamy, light and so very tasty! I took one home because one was not enough!! Love this place, best drinks as well with a full bar on site!”
“Found this taco spot on a business trip. I'm glad I gave a chance ! The food amazing and the customer service is beyond amazing. This is a family owner business that just started. I felt like I was treat as if I was part of there family. Try the tacos and super fries. You won't be disappointed.”
“I absolutely love this spot .. IV been to a few and this is by far the best .. Aside from the outdoor seating not regularly cleaned..I love going to this Posh ..”
“This is a takeout place offering 'Gourmet burgers'. I found the burgers to be, well, OK. A step up from the normal big name fast foods but nothing out of the ordinary. Gourmet, is not the word that came to mind, however, the veggies were fresh and the burger was cooked to specification. The fries were good. Took a bit to get the order. My uncle got a burger and a hot dog. Same reaction to the burger but said the Hot Dog was really great. All in all, for two meals we paid about 40 bucks, that's about average, maybe high average, for two.”
“Food at El Polo Loco is outstanding! I never had any problem with there food the only thing is there wait time when there really busy especially in the drive thru and that's understandable .

“Still great pizza when they're not stupid busy or short -staffed. Love the slices when it's just 2 of us because they are huge, filled with flavor and toppings, and cooked perfectly and not mushy in the middle like the normal sizes can be. Updated menu attached!”

“It was my first time coming to this Hayward location and the food was amazing! My chicken bowl and 3 crunchy tacos were fresh and delicious. The service was fast and the restaurant was very clean. The only thing I will say is that I dislike their garbage holes as they are shaped as a very small square.Don’t let the negative reviews throw you off. I’m not sure why other customers said the food was cold and old haha.”
“Best Indian Restaurant in Hayward. Food is so delicious and taste amazing. We tried Briyani, Garlic Naan, Noodles, MoMo(Dumplings), butter chicken and everything was amazingly delicious.”
