The best food I had while in Oakland "bar" none. I'm just shocked that I found a place with legitimate Gluten Free options. Still shocked. Fish Tacos better than San Diego. Best grilled Brussels ever. Evening bartender works his butt off. You better tip this guy.

Best fries I’ve had in Oakland. Everyone keeps talking about their brunch, which is just fine, but I’d rather come on a slower afternoon to sit on the patio with a heaping basket of fries & a beer. Not that I have anything against their brunch, but it’s first come first serve so it gets really busy, and the food is good but just didn’t live up to the hype. The service is always 10/10 though! They rotate their tap menu with lots of local & domestic brews, including some gluten free & kombucha, and the patio vibes are really nice especially if you’re facing the lake. The happy hour is pretty early from 3-5pm but they also have a good deal for tacos on Tuesdays.
