Flores Emeryville

Our daughter has introduced us to several nice restaurants in Oakland. This restaurant, on the third floor of Bay St shopping center, is another one of her excellent recommendations. It was cold yesterday in Oakland so we ate inside the restaurant, though the tables outside would be nice on a warmer day. The restaurant has high ceilings and well spaced tables with comfortable chairs so conversations can be held without raising your voice. The menu is small but adequate and includes vegetarian and gluten free items so we all found something to enjoy. We started with guacamole and chips and a nice margarita made with mezcal and Cointreau, then I had tacos with carne asados and sides of rice and black beans. The 3 tacos were very good. Others had chicken tacos, a two vegan bowls. All were delicious.
