“Brava Garden Eatery was such a treat! We felt so well taken care of by the friendly staff, and the food was absolutely delicious – The vibe was just perfect for a memorable evening out. The only downside was the wine selection, which didn't quite hit the mark, but honestly, it didn't ruin our experience at all. We left with happy bellies and big smiles.”

“A delightful Greek dining experience! The indoor and outdoor seating places offer unique takes, both very pleasant. The tsatziki appetizer was thicker than the usual sauce and quite tasty. We also had some interesting cocktails, and the lamb shank was absolutely perfectly made. Would definitely return!”
“Excellent lunch! The Chicken Marsala and Wild Boar Ragu Pasta specials were exceptional, and the Tiramisu and Cappuccinos were the perfect ending. Delatorre's never disappoints.”
“The atmosphere in this place is great, awesome beer selection, lots of TVs for sports, small game area for the kids and an overall great place for large gatherings. However, the pizza on multiple visits is just ok. We’ve tried the garlic chicken and a couple of others, maybe the appetizers are better, but so far it’s been hit or miss on the pizza choices.As our daughter gets older and goes through HS, I’m sure we’ll be back to try again.Does anyone have a recommendation as to what the best pizza or food option is at Porky’s?”
“I've been here several times and always leave happy. My husband got the Greek salad with a shrimp kebab for the first time. He loved it! I got the lamb skewer plate, again. It's been my go to! Friendly waiter and hostess. Can't wait to go back!”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“I absolutely love this restaurant. It is a very Pleasanton, but exceptionally tasty place to have a meal. In the past I've enjoyed the salmon pasta and they cook everything to perfection. It is on the main strip in Pleasanton and you can't go wrong eating here whether you are on a date or dining with your family.”
“Sichuan wontons were the bomb, definitely recommend. I'm still thinking of those wontons. Steamed dumplings were also great quality- simple but filled with flavor. Busy, but not too crowded. Service was nice and fast. All the dishes were high quality, reasonable price!”
“Food was good and they have some unique items like their chicken sandwich which is very good. Service is overwhelmed by the popularity of the place at certain times like when we came.”
Restaurants with Delivery
“Omg , best ice cream cone ever !We got pineapple/ vanilla mix , large size $4.00 , small $3.00service is e excellent , they are all young kids , friendly and polite !”
“What a gem. The crepes were *so* delicious. Both light and filling. I'm glad we saved room for ice cream. It was perfect- not too sweet. The strawberry with pine nuts was our favorite. Service was friendly. We sat outside and enjoyed the weather.”
“What a find! I had been trying a number of pizza places in town (after Papa Murphy's closed) and found some good pies, but nothing that was a keeper. I found my keeper. Ordered the Titania's Bounty and was delighted with the balance of cooked and fresh ingredients. The dough is unique and delicious. The owners are engaging and all so pleasant. They have earned my repeat business.”
“Super delicious food! Hospitable servers, and a fun environment with an Instagram picture worthy interior. They’re great representatives for Peruvian food. Makes for an awesome night in SF! Loved this placeTry their pulpo anticucho for a delicious and well portioned octopus tentacle with potatoes, or go straight Peruvian with their fresh ceviche. Honestly can’t go wrong with anything on their menu.”
“The food was so flavorful without being salty or heavy. The staff was efficient, knowledgeable, and warm. The housemade rice pudding was creamy and delicious yet light and delicately sweet. We're still full but can't wait to come again!Vegetarian options: Vegetable Plate”
“The food is outstanding . Their Chicken Tikka Masala and Butter Chicken is one of the best I have eaten in the Bay Area. Their service is so warm and kind, even a pick up experience is so graciously handled and serviced. A MUST TRY!!”
“Went with my daughter's at happy hour and had a great time. Everyone was super nice and helpful. We got lots of tips on how to throw better. We needed all the help we could get! We got some drinks and Flatbread. The Flatbread was good too. Would totally recommend. I like it better here than at Debouchery in Livermore. They have more digital games foe the axe throwing and the vibe is better too.”

“Came for brunch on a weekday and it was busy. Food and drinks were very good and would enjoy coming back again! Outdoor and indoor seating available.Parking: Limited parking directly in front of restaurant. Free parking available in plaza but limited due to the size and how busy it is.”
“Tried them last night and food was good. Got garlic fries - crispy and filling. Only complaint is that it wasn't evenly coated, some bites very garlicky, others plain. Fried chicken momo was crispy and tasted like tandoori potstickers. Chai tea and mango lasso also pass, but nothing special. Service was fast and friendly. It's a casual place and all food served on paper plates with plastic utensils. It was trippy that club disco music was playing. Good value for tasty food.”

“I ordered a small two-tier cake and mini cupcakes from SFBS for my wedding in June. Everything was delicious and beautiful! Guests raved about the various flavors. Delivery was prompt, as well, and it was easy to work with SFBS in the lead up to the wedding as we placed our order. Can't recommend them enough if you need gf wedding desserts!”

“Lively place, delicious food. One star less because the Paella skillet is very tiny and can barely fill two kids. I would rather pay more to get a decent sized dish. The food was served within minutes of ordering, so thats a plus! Drinks were great and quality of food was excellent. FYI, wait times are long to get a table without prior reservation. Highly recommend this place especially to visit on weekend nights.”
“I was first introduced to Zachary's Pizza in 1984 me and my wife have been married for close to 10 years I had to share this experience with her even after all these years the recipe the hospitality is still second to none I went to the first Zachary's Pizza in Berkeley at 9 years old it's a lovely ordeal to be able to share with my wife thank you Zachary's we're natives San Francisco California but we love the entire Bay”

Mumu Hot Pot
“Fantastic quality and service.Love it. A favorite restaurant for both my wife and I. We go for Tom Yum and spice it up with the ground thai chilis on the self service bar.Our only negative is that the wait to get a table can be long, there is no way to tell that in advance despite an electronic waiting list, and they don't take reservations. Rules it out often for us. We generally only come "off" hours.”
Outdoor Dining
“I absolutely love this restaurant. It is a very Pleasanton, but exceptionally tasty place to have a meal. In the past I've enjoyed the salmon pasta and they cook everything to perfection. It is on the main strip in Pleasanton and you can't go wrong eating here whether you are on a date or dining with your family.”
“Ordered the Mediterranean salad which was delicious and a good size that includes avocado. There are some great sauces that come with salad that I would have used on my rice had it not already been too salty.Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options such as the Mediterranean Salad whichbis delicious, hummus, pita, fries, falafel, rice, and others.”
“5x10 stars for service!!!! Not only are the drinks the BEST, the Team at the Pleasanton location are the sweetest. We regularly go tot ye Berkeley location and accidentally placed the drink order to Berkeley instead of this one. They helped out and was so kind. The seasonal strawberry drink is amazing too!”
“Amazing. I love the matcha toasted rice latte. The flavor is perfect. She whisks the matcha which makes a big difference in flavor. My sister got the hojicha latte and that was also very good. Would definitely be here all the time if I lived in the area. Service was also great.”
“Tried to go in drive thru but line was 2 blocks long . We found a parking spot and ate in.Most of our crew are from east coast and no In Out so it was a treat for most of us !!”
“Food was good and they have some unique items like their chicken sandwich which is very good. Service is overwhelmed by the popularity of the place at certain times like when we came.”
“Awesome authentic southeast Asian food. I've visited various places in southeast Asia over the last 20 years.Especially appreciate the nasi lemak, and the char kway teow. Good drinks like kopi and Milo. And it's got much better ambiance than a hawker center. :)Meat is halal.”

“This place is awesome. Very unique food. Many familiar Mexican dishes but with ingredients and flavors that are different than any version I have had. Whoever is coming up with their dishes is very creative but it all comes together in a very cohesive way. Although I am not vegetarian, I really like a lot of the stuff on the vegetarian menu. Make sure to scroll down on the online ordering, because there is a bunch of stuff that is somewhat hidden towards the bottom. The people there are really nice, and my wife loves their sangrias. One of my favorite places in downtown Pleasanton”
“We tried this place today. Ordered pani puri, masala puri, dahi puri , muntha masala and an egg puff.All the dishes are excellent. The pani puri was really good. The egg puffs was nice and flavorful reminiscent of puffs I've had back in the day. Muntha masala is a must try item from them. I havent seen this in this bay area. This reminded me of my childhood.”
“ID Cafe offers a delightful twist on South Indian breakfast classics, infusing traditional flavors with a modern touch. From their crispy dosas filled with flavorful fillings to their fluffy idlis served with an array of chutneys and sambar, each dish at ID Cafe is a treat for the taste buds. The cafe's cozy ambiance provides the perfect setting to enjoy a leisurely breakfast, whether you're dining solo or catching up with friends. The attentive staff ensures a pleasant experience, while the charming decor adds to the overall ambiance. For a taste of authentic South Indian breakfast with a contemporary flair, ID Cafe is a must-visit destination.”
“Fries and speed of service were great. We ordered sweet potato fries and they were very good, fresh and hot. The burger was ok, the bun was too dense and the patty was not freshly cooked. I'd go back.”
“This place is the greatest breakfast/brunch restaurant I’ve ever been to. I’ve eaten all over the world, mostly throughout European countries. Been to all of the best places in Vegas. This place is a work of art. Their eggs Benedict is heavenly. Their chicken lemon soup just hits all the taste buds. The French toast reminds me of what my mother used to make, but if she was an iron chef or something. Immaculate food, great service. Price is a bit high but the quality of everything justifies it pretty well. Wonderful place.”
“We went here for our anniversary.Loved the ambiance. It's small and cute.Service was exceptional. Our server had his italian accent added perfect touch to the ambiance and food that we ordered :)Yummy drinks, great food. Everything was finger licking tasty. Definitely recommend!”
“Cute place! Walked on Main Street in Pleasanton and found a cute little boba place. The staff were very nice. She explained their items as well as options I can have with my drink. I ordered a brown sugar boba with oat milk with 0% sugar and 50% ice. The drink was delicious. The boba was chewy and fresh. You don't need the added sugar because the brown sugar boba is sweet enough. I will definitely come back.”

CA NOODLE
“We'd been looking for a great noodle place in Pleasanton and it looks like we found it. Wife and I both got the chili oil pork noodles and loved them. Prices are good if you don't order on the app.”
“Hap's is really popular and for good reason. We went this past Saturday early evening and there was a line starting to form before 5pm when the restaurant opens. Luckily, we were fourth in line. We went and sat at the bar to drink and eat. The bar and bar lounge filled up very fast. The two bartenders Carlos and Eric were both really good!Besides the wine, the dinner that we had was really delicious. We started with French onion soup followed by Prime rib and a side of mashed potatoes, which was huge!All in all, we had a wonderful time and we'll be back.”

“I've never had a bad experience nor bad meal here. Oasis is the place to come eat any day of the week. Natasha is an amazing waitress who should do a training seminar around the country on how to treat guest, knowing the place that you work for and the food they serve because she was absolutely amazing with suggestions and service. Even the chef came out to great us and apologize for the wait to get our food. The ambiance is perfect for any occasion. 5 STARS ALL THE WAY. BTW, you can't go wrong with anything here as everything was fresh and delicious. Sorry no pics this time as we were hungry from Easter service.”
“The Best Vietnamese beef soup in all of San Ramon, Dublin, Pleasenton and Livermore. I drain all the soup from my #1.Parking: Over 30 parking spotsKid-friendliness: I hope the food would keep the kids in their chair. lol.Wheelchair accessibility: Roomy inside to do 360”
“Have eaten here quite a few times with good food, however, my last visit was below average. We had the trout clam chowder which was just ok, not hugely tasty and the tikka massala which was a bit bland. The flatbread/naan was a bit underdone and the truffle didn’t really go with the dish.I think it may just have been a one off because it’s usually good but prices are not cheap so I expect more every time not just most of the time.”
“My 1st time eating here and I wasn't disappointed. The waitress was AWESOME. Her recommendation of the steelhead trout was a straight win. The trout had a slight char to the skin which enhanced the flavor. The trout was well seasoned. The vegetables were cooked perfectly. The mashed potatoes were a win. Definitely a 10/10 meal.”
“Excellent wine tasting! They have great deals on bottles if you plan on taking some home, so make sure to ask - I was offered a discount for buying 2 of what I wanted, making the 2nd bottle just $7 for a 750mL dessert wine! The estate is beautiful & there is a nifty gift shop on site.”
“Whether you're looking to savor the rich flavors of carefully curated beers or indulge in a delightful culinary journey, this venue offers a perfect blend of gastronomic delights and musical entertainment.”
“Been here once in person and got take out once. Both times the KFC and raddish was absolutely perfect. Best KFC in the area. I got a rice roll one time too and it was okay (notjing special). I will go back ”
“My colleagues and I were in town for work. Short walk from the Hyatt. Perfect pub atmosphere with warm fireplaces and lots of TV's. Food was delicious and even got to meet the owners! Tom and Debbie are so sweet. Took the time to get to know us and we got to know them. As Hoosier, I had to get Debbie's famous tenderloin and it did not disappoint. They also have trivia and karaoke during the week. Perfect spot for food and entertainment. Thank you for the amazing hospitality!”
“Fantastic restaurant. The ambience here is pretty cool, it almost has a French bistro vibe, some sort of small cafe some place. The service is excellent and the food is always exceptional. Perhaps one of the most interesting and intriguing aspects is the fact that you just don't see too many Burmese restaurants around. If you're looking to try something new and delicious, this is certainly a worthwhile place to go.”
“Pasta's is very reliable in terms of service and the quality of the food and drinks. We eat there about once a month. The restaurant does offer tasting specials for items not on the menu (individual items on the special menu may also be ordered a la carte) but I would appreciate it if the regular menu could be revised from time to time.”
“What a hidden gem! 10/10 recommend. Great service and what an idea… Indian food on pizza?? I mean come on. The butter chicken pizza and the Bombay pizza were delicious. I am only here for the weekend and we are already planning on coming back.”
“Such a fun and vibrant restaurant. The outdoor seating is amazing and the live music was top tier. If you’re lucky enough to have Mario as your server you’re in for a great night. Perfect date night spot.”
“We were in the area as a team for work and went to Baci for dinner. It’s typical of this area that prices are above average and Baci is no exception. However, we really enjoyed the food and the service was particularly good. I had a the 20oz prime steak and it was cooked perfectly - yum! However, I’d skip the lobster-mac-cheese balls as they were pretty bland without the marinara sauce”
“Chianti Reserve is our favorite restaurant on Main Street! The food is always delicious and the specials of the day are outstanding. The fish dishes are always fresh and all the dishes are tastefully prepared! The managers and servers are friendly and accommodating! The atmosphere is warm and we're treated like family!”
“Great ambiance, wine & food. My friends played music on Saturday and it made it really enjoyable! Can't wait for the weather to be better and enjoy the patio.”

“Ate there for 3 nights while staying at the hotel next door. 1st two nights, sun & mon food and service were excellent. 3rd night wed different shift workers, not so ”
“Not your average Jack in The Box! Super clean, super fast! There is one employee there, his name is Jimmy, that dude hustles!! Just sitting here watching him bust his tail is so inspiring!”
“This restaurant is off the 580 freeway by Santa Rita in Pleasanton, CA. It's a quiet, tidy, and safe place to stop by McDonald's goodness. My boys love the McFlurry with Oreo cookies, and we order every time we return from a soccer game.”

“I had the cloud dish rice noodles and it was such a fun and cute experience! They bring everything out on a plate for you to put in yourselves. I love hotpot so this was really similar to that. Allowed the food to be super fresh.”
“My 1st time eating here and I wasn't disappointed. The waitress was AWESOME. Her recommendation of the steelhead trout was a straight win.

“So flavorful! I can't remember all of the dishes we tried, but one that I remember was the curry rice with tofu. Highly recommend and if I'm in the area again, I will return. Service was friendly and quick.”
“Meal was scrumptious and yummy ? sat at the counter, wait staff was prompt and super friendly! Coffee was hot and delicious ? ?☕️ everything was clean and I left full and happy. A great place with good people, I highly recommend!”
“I thought it was seaweed sushi, but it was literally a piece of pocket sushi, like a rice ball. Although it was less than the average American food, it was full and tasty. The amount was just right for me.It felt a bit expensive for the price, but it was a light and satisfying meal.”
“The flag is faded, the walls hold old farm tools and even an old lever action, and the exit sign is crooked. That's how you know it's gonna be good. For breakfast: The biscuits and gravy is done right, with a meaty, slightly spicy country gravy. The hash browns are actually crispy without being dry. The sausages are links, crispy on all sides, not just the bottom, but juicy inside. The eggs are cracked, not liquid, even if you order the scramble. The coffee has a standing offer on the table to add Irish cream liqueur to it, and has non alcoholic Irish cream at the table anyways. It was full end to end, so we had a bit of a delay on getting a coffee, but damn, this place is good. I didn't get to try the lunch yet, but this is a killer breakfast.”
“Our first time here and it was a success! My granddaughter, Margaux, enjoyed playing with the toys that didn't work and my Mom appreciated the junior size of vanilla gelato!”
“Went in here to get 6 pcs of habanero hot wings. The taste was good, but my mom was not able to enjoy it at all. She said the wings were dry, but they were ok for me. This place might be a hit or miss. I did enjoy it though.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible doors and parking spots”
“We became regular customers as the taste is always consistent and close to family food taste. We sometimes takeout if we are not feeling well as the food is very kid friendly. The manager and staff are excellent and always taking care of customers. The cleanliness of environment and staff are the reason we chose to go here. Wish they grow big and hats off to the team. The kitchen is super clean and love veg options.”
“Chicken steak is deliciousThe pork ribs are pretty good, but I feel like they were braised for a short time. I personally like a little sweetness.The frozen lemon tea is delicious and not too sweetThe boss is from ChiayiI want to try chicken rice next time!”
“The best marinated poke in all of the tri-valley. As someone born and raised in Hawaii real poke has the fish marinated in the sauce for a while and not just sprayed on and then mix together. The portion sizes are really good and the fried won ton chips or nachos as they call it adds a special touch.”

Andy & Yu's
“This is our favorite Chinese restaurant in the Bay Area. The food is well prepared, I especially like the vegetable mixture that comes with some dishes(lightly sautéed pawns with vegetables in light sauce, and home style tofu). It’s has generous amount of broccoli, bokchoy, cabbage, carrots and asparagus in the mix, cut size is right, cooked tender enough yet still remains its crispness. I don’t even know how to cook it well like this in my own kitchen…we have came to this place for at least 6 times and have tried different dishes. The food quality has been consistent, which is really important… :) the price is very reasonable, given the food quality, downtown location, parking lot in the back, and of course, something also tickles my fancy, white table linens. Of all things, I haven’t mentioned about the service… that’s also brought me to write this review today. We always felt being treated nicely and warmly at this place. Today we came for lunch, I asked my husband to order me a Yuxiang pork, and he mistakenly ordered a different dish and we didn’t notice that until the dishes came. I was initially surprised, this is not what I ordered… and the waiter quickly apologized and said they will make the dish I wanted. My husband told them that he made the mistake at ordering and we will pay for it. The waiter right away told us not to worry about it. Coming from a hospitality profession, this smooth gesture of always make your customers feel right, is a gold medal. Very nice people work at this restaurant, you can tell. The restaurant is clean, and artfully decorated. It has a nice wine bar and lovely cocktail selections. I can’t wait to go back again and try something new! In the meantime, thank you!”
“Excellent wine tasting! They have great deals on bottles if you plan on taking some home, so make sure to ask - I was offered a discount for buying 2 of what I wanted, making the 2nd bottle just $7 for a 750mL dessert wine! The estate is beautiful & there is a nifty gift shop on site.”
“The food had great flavor, but I felt there was too much rice and not enough vegetables in my bowl. I am going to them again, but I will ask for less rice and more vegetables. I want to bring my husband. I know he will love the ribeye. See you soon.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Greetings everyone! Great day today at lunch. I just had the #1 Char Meal. Its me Daniel Rita's Beauty Intoxication. Gosh I miss our meetings like how we use to have to make everything work with meetings. I saw the painting on the wall of with LindaRyan. I wonder how Ryan that is living the the Budweiser trailer is healing from that leg got cut that he is suffering. Hope to see everyone around.”
“I can happily say that this is a local fast food restaurant with the best customer service. Their staff is amazing. They control the traffic lines really well, and our overall very polite.”
“usually order mutton briyani from here. last week ordered mutton briyani, idicha chicken, paratha and mutton pirrattal. all of them were very different and taster than usual. would recommend to keep the same recipe.”
“This Starbucks is just the most quaint drive thru I have ever seen. Believe it or not, they are quicker than many of the full service walk-in at Starbucks. There is a walk-up, but no walk in and sit down.None the less, I love this spot. Highway accessible, there is a Wingstop, Taco Bell near by and a Dollar Tree. Good location.. traffic flows well over here. The staff at this Starbucks is extremely polite, and the service is quick. Never in line longer than 5-7 minutes.”
“This is one of the cleanest Panda’s I have been to. The steam tables were filled. The area around the food was spotlessly and shiny. Their floors were clean even the cooking area as I looked in. The food is fine for quick chinese.”
“Fast service and all my food was hot. The tacos are my favorite.Parking: Lots of parking as this Jack is attached to a few other stores.Kid-friendliness: It's a Jack. How much more kid friendly can you get!Wheelchair accessibility: Easy in and out.”
“Today i was helped by Daniel and personally if i was management I would highly consider giving him a raise or promotion. First of all, The food was outstanding, second Daniels customer service was outstanding. He was very friendly and even recommended various delicious items. Daniel was very professional and for that reason i will continue to be a customer.”
“This the only McDonald's that gives you order correctly when you order it without no excuses for example I like there breakfast burrito but without cheese but most McDonald's won't do that for you like this place does ?”
“The food was delicious and it was masterful. I don't understand the reviews. The customer service was exquisite and I have a wonderful experience. It was delicious and I will come again until I explode. 10/10 taco bell Dublin justified”
“I would avoid this place late night but the rest of the time it is pretty good. Late night you get a poorly run business from can’t get your order right or even get a receipt.”
“We ordered sandwich trays and charcuterie cups for my dad's celebration of life. This mom/daughter team work so hard to accommodate any situation. The food was great! Thanks so much. We will be back.”
“The food is very good. But the idea is serving in disposable wares is actually a bad idea. This is a case of good intentions but bad results. They should switch to stainless steel wares which is more eco friendly. Right now these disposable wares even if they a compostable (not sure ) will occupy spaceThey also have an issue with planning for the crowd. They are on the precipice of going down the tubes if they are not careful with crowd handling. Bay area has lots of options and no one has good experience with the service staffThe lady in the front (I believe the owner or owner spouse) must learn a thing or two about customer service. These people have to understand that they are not doing us the public any favors . That is the vibe this lady gives”

“Intimate sushi restaurant in downtown Pleasanton. The food is excellent. Serving good quality fresh fish. The staff are attentive and nice. There's a reason why they have been around for many years!”
Cheap Eats
“The service of the creative stores and staff was very kind. The best takoyaki and ice cream as snacks are really good. If you come nearby, make sure to visit. I strongly recommend it. The store is clean and quite spacious inside.”
“Service was quick and the overall vibe was good. The restroom wasn't great. Wish they maintained the cleanliness of the bathroom. May be it’s a one off situation.However the food quality and taste made up for that not so good experience overall.Kid-friendliness: They provide high chair and/ or boosters”
“Visited this restaurant on a rainy evening in November. Who doesn't love hot Chinese food in such weather, when you also have good vegetarian options available too.Garlic Eggplant appetizer was on the sweeter side and was cooked perfectly. Chow Mein was also very good. Kung Pao Tofu was lacked flavor and gravy. Was expecting an explosion in my mouth but there was none.Service was fast and every dish was served hot and fresh.”
“Pleasanton’s pride and joy is what I call this place. Great cheerful owners and a lot of bagel choices but the pork Banh Mi is the real bomb. Try it once and you will be hooked.”
“I stopped in hoping for a quick to-go order. It was my first visit, i happened to be in the area. The atmosphere is very pleasant, clean and friendly. I ordered a simple side dish of pork fried rice. It was delicious, hot and full of flavor! No soy sauce needed at all. The food tasted great, it wasn't greasy or over done. I look forward to coming in to dine and order more items. The kitchen is in full view, I like this because it helps to see they keep their place clean and the cooks looked to have handled the food properly. I felt comfortable here. Will visit again soon.”
“I've been a regular at this coffee shop for the past few years, and it has never disappointed! They consistently serve up excellent coffee that never fails to hit the spot. Their seasonal lattes are a must-try; I usually look forward to trying out the creative flavors they come up with.The ambiance is warm and cozy, perfect place to catch up with friends. However, it does tend to get crowded in the mornings, so it's best to arrive early if you want to snag a table.Overall, this coffee shop has been my go-to spot for a reason, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great cup of coffee in a welcoming atmosphere."”
“This is my go to Mexican place in Pleasanton. I had a last minute catering gig for 25 and they crushed it last year. Last time we ate there, the kids let me know it was the best burrito of all time.”
“we drive all the way from Newark CA to Pleasanton Just to eat there they have the most reasonable prices And the food is great it's a family owned business And they treat their customers right”
“Sport bar, restaurant for the working person to enjoy a meal at a reasonable price. Service is good, food good, price is good. Not a place for kids or young family. Sport Bar with not just bar food.”
“This used to be my go-to spot before I moved. Excellent Chinese restaurant, the staff are incredibly friendly and if you're picking up your food will have a nice conversation with you if you like talking. The food is above average and third decor is pretty cool.”
“Been going here for years it's simple but good food and surprisingly low priced compared to other options. One of the few places you can get a teriyaki bowl a breakfast burrito and a cheeseburger and not be disappointed by any of them.”
“I’m so upset that I’ve lived in Pleasanton for 20 months and didn’t discover this place until this morning! Very, very few places have bacon breakfast burritos and this place made the best one I have ever had!! They’re definitely going to be seeing a lot of me!They also sell salsa and it is DELICIOUS (larger amounts than what you get for a meal), so my fridge is stocked for my chips. Yay! Five stars all the way.”
“I would like some Mexican music, but damn were these tacos good! They put lots of meat in the tacos and the salsa is paired perfectly. I'm Mexican, so trust me. These are the best tacos in Pleasanton. No other Taqueria is even close.”
“Great oyster mee sua, and fantastic fried chicken. Nothing more to say about the food ?Unfortunately we went on a Sat evening and there was only one poor lady working the front. Obviously overwhelmed and doing her best with a nice attitude to it… but that was the only drawback.And it’s in an Asian food court… nuff said ?”
“We were looking for a quick stop for breakfast and coffee and this was just what we needed. We ordered both beverages and breakfast items and they were served promptly and tasted great. All the staff members were friendly and seemed upbeat. The facilities were clean, but the restrooms were closed off which was a bummer as we were traveling. Would visit again if I was in the area!”
“Whether you're looking to savor the rich flavors of carefully curated beers or indulge in a delightful culinary journey, this venue offers a perfect blend of gastronomic delights and musical entertainment.”

SOZO Sushi
“For over 25 years SOZO has been our favorite sushi place. The food is excellent and the selection is considerable. Service is with a great staff. O matter your in a table, booth or sushi bar, you get great food and a wonderful meal. Try and you will love it.Vegetarian options: Great selectionDietary restrictions: Will accommodateParking: Plenty to use”
“Fantastic restaurant. The ambience here is pretty cool, it almost has a French bistro vibe, some sort of small cafe some place. The service is excellent and the food is always exceptional. Perhaps one of the most interesting and intriguing aspects is the fact that you just don't see too many Burmese restaurants around. If you're looking to try something new and delicious, this is certainly a worthwhile place to go.”

“The food was delicious and it was masterful. I don't understand the reviews. The customer service was exquisite and I have a wonderful experience. It was delicious and I will come again until I explode. 10/10 taco bell Dublin justified”
“This is our favorite Chinese restaurant in the Bay Area. The food is well prepared, I especially like the vegetable mixture that comes with some dishes(lightly sautéed pawns with vegetables in light sauce, and home style tofu). It’s has generous amount of broccoli, bokchoy, cabbage, carrots and asparagus in the mix, cut size is right, cooked tender enough yet still remains its crispness. I don’t even know how to cook it well like this in my own kitchen…we have came to this place for at least 6 times and have tried different dishes. The food quality has been consistent, which is really important… :) the price is very reasonable, given the food quality, downtown location, parking lot in the back, and of course, something also tickles my fancy, white table linens. Of all things, I haven’t mentioned about the service… that’s also brought me to write this review today. We always felt being treated nicely and warmly at this place. Today we came for lunch, I asked my husband to order me a Yuxiang pork, and he mistakenly ordered a different dish and we didn’t notice that until the dishes came. I was initially surprised, this is not what I ordered… and the waiter quickly apologized and said they will make the dish I wanted. My husband told them that he made the mistake at ordering and we will pay for it. The waiter right away told us not to worry about it. Coming from a hospitality profession, this smooth gesture of always make your customers feel right, is a gold medal. Very nice people work at this restaurant, you can tell. The restaurant is clean, and artfully decorated. It has a nice wine bar and lovely cocktail selections. I can’t wait to go back again and try something new! In the meantime, thank you!”
“Brava Garden Eatery was such a treat! We felt so well taken care of by the friendly staff, and the food was absolutely delicious – The vibe was just perfect for a memorable evening out. The only downside was the wine selection, which didn't quite hit the mark, but honestly, it didn't ruin our experience at all. We left with happy bellies and big smiles.”
“Good for all you can eat hot pot. I like the fresh selections of ingredients and sauces. The Cara oranges was a bonus! The staff was very friendly but they don't seem to have enough servers.”

“I've eaten here a number of times, but at the window or very near. This evening at Sat away from the window is the main dining room and I literally was unable to see my food almost entirely. I recognized the noodles only because it was what I ordered, but I could see any of the other food. It was disturbing since I ordered with specific removal of items. There are always large groups, they are always as loud as possible.”
“Omg , best ice cream cone ever !We got pineapple/ vanilla mix , large size $4.00 , small $3.00service is e excellent , they are all young kids , friendly and polite !”
“What a find! I had been trying a number of pizza places in town (after Papa Murphy's closed) and found some good pies, but nothing that was a keeper. I found my keeper. Ordered the Titania's Bounty and was delighted with the balance of cooked and fresh ingredients. The dough is unique and delicious. The owners are engaging and all so pleasant. They have earned my repeat business.”
“What a gem. The crepes were *so* delicious. Both light and filling. I'm glad we saved room for ice cream. It was perfect- not too sweet. The strawberry with pine nuts was our favorite. Service was friendly. We sat outside and enjoyed the weather.”

“Amazing fried chicken, would recommend both flavors. No service to speak of since there's no option to dine in. Ambiance is also nonexistent, I only order to pick up or delivery as the part of the city it is located in is very sketch.”
“We were in the area as a team for work and went to Baci for dinner. It’s typical of this area that prices are above average and Baci is no exception. However, we really enjoyed the food and the service was particularly good. I had a the 20oz prime steak and it was cooked perfectly - yum! However, I’d skip the lobster-mac-cheese balls as they were pretty bland without the marinara sauce”
“5x10 stars for service!!!! Not only are the drinks the BEST, the Team at the Pleasanton location are the sweetest. We regularly go tot ye Berkeley location and accidentally placed the drink order to Berkeley instead of this one. They helped out and was so kind. The seasonal strawberry drink is amazing too!”

“First time trying this! I would totally come back for the Pan Fried Pork Bun! That was really good! Lots of juice inside with a crispy bottom! I also tried the porridge and the potstickers. Porridge was really watery so likely would not do that one again. Potstickers are a bit dry. The 4 stars was really for the Pan Fried Pork Buns!!! Those were really really good! Would totally give the pan fried pork buns a try next time you are in the area!”
“The food is outstanding . Their Chicken Tikka Masala and Butter Chicken is one of the best I have eaten in the Bay Area. Their service is so warm and kind, even a pick up experience is so graciously handled and serviced. A MUST TRY!!”
