Suggestions for Dining and Drinking near Grand Lake, Oakland

Tina D. • July 3, 2015Great cocktails, goddess salad, meatballs and Tribune pizza are favs.

Brian S. • December 5, 2019Excellent burger! Homemade bun, homemade mayo. Cooked perfectly. I love it when you get salad AND fries standard for $17.

Claudia R. • January 20, 2011The Banger sausage croisant is bomb.

Kathleen • April 6, 2013The mushroom tibs are delicious. A great place to go with vegetarian friends.

Teresa P. • July 21, 2011The cheeseburger was moist and tasty. Piano bar and singing are lots of fun.

Brian S. • November 21, 2019Killer new spot with a full bar. Still has the complicated two person seating system where it takes 5 mins just to figure out how long you’re going to wait for a table. My secret ingredient is pesto!

Shanti B. • September 12, 2013The tavern burger is delicious! Lots of unusual extras available. We also got the plum and peach bread pudding which was perfect! Great for hanging out and chatting

Matt K. • June 1, 2012You must try the lumberjack. It's so freaking good!

Jacques T. • September 25, 2010A must have is the prime rib dinner served Fridays & Saturdays!

Sabrina S. • July 21, 2015Fresh delicious sushi and great service! Definitely will come back! My female friends will love this place for sure too :-)

Dominica B. • May 3, 2013Best deals in town . You get a ton of food at a great price. I highly recommend any of the chow meins and the beef and broccoli.

Tanya L. • January 28, 2012Fast service. Homemade food. Lovely back patio. Best oatmeal pancakes.

Trucy • August 7, 2015It's rare to see Vietnamese restaurants offer authentic desserts (if any at all). Try the creamy tapioca, coconut milk and cassava chè (soup/pudding) that's aromatic and not too sweet.

Jennifer M. • March 18, 2023Cute little spot for brunch! Very friendly staff and a good vibe overall. They have an outdoor patio that is dog-friendly and they have heat lamps for chillier days.

Martha H. • November 10, 2014Still partially under construction but in the meantime the cafe offers a refreshing selection of housemade baked goods (do I hear gluten free brownie with salted caramel?).

Trent • February 2, 2012Coconut shrimp is real good

Dimitri T. • August 12, 2010Great sandwiches and place is VERY clean!

Byron W. • February 12, 2016Fruits, vegetables, and meats are way fresher than some other low-cost grocery stores that shan't be named. Def recommend.
