“Tio's Mediterranean Grill is amazing! The music, food and customer service was above excellent. The owner is so accommodating and attentive to all customers. We will be returning soon and recommending to friends and family. Please give this restaurant a try, you will love it. Please support this local business. Thank you so much to the owner for letting us review your establishment. We wish you many blessings and more success. Thank you again.”
“Hands down, the best pizza in the area! While there’s not much seating, many people opt for takeout. However, I prefer to eat here and enjoy it fresh out of the oven whenever possible. They have a great selection of beer, including some German options. The menu is simple, focusing on the quality of their pies!”
“The broth is satisfying, flavorful, and has just the right amount of numbing spice. I highly recommend the beef bone broth soup base with either medium or spicy heat. The Szechuan spicy base is good, too!
You can choose from various meats, seafood, veggies, and noodles. Pick whichever ingredients you want as long as it meets the minimum 0.8 lbs (they charge you by weight)”
“Tequila Bar & Grill in San Leandro is an excellent spot if you’re looking for authentic Mexican food in the Bay Area. The chilaquiles, tacos, and burritos stand out for their genuine flavor, and the arrachera is especially worth trying, whether as a main dish or as an addition to the chilaquiles. The sauces that come with the dishes enhance the overall experience. Plus, the cocktails are interesting, and the service is always top-notch. This restaurant offers a great selection of tequilas and is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates Mexican cuisine. I visit this place whenever I can, knowing that whatever I order will be delicious. They’ll be opening a new location in Dublin soon, which is great news for fans of this kind of food!”

“I ordered here last week for my whole family. They made their meat so soft compared to other restaurants. Also, they have excellent customers service. They all are very nice and friendly. I only tried Grill Porks and Shrimps Vermicelli. I’ll definitely come to try noodle soup next time. I highly recommend this restaurant. ❤️🥰🍲🍛🥢🍴”
“Small, clean, and friendly staff. I have only had the chicken sandwich and Turkey Burger. ( Can't eat fatty foods) Both were delicious and tender. Definitely one of my top spots to eat for a sandwich since I have dietary restrictions. Looking forward to trying the veggie burger my next trip.
Vegetarian options: Has a veggie burger that looks delicious.
Dietary restrictions: I can't eat fatty foods, So I look for good chicken, veggie, and turkey burgers. This place is a top choice in San Leandro for me.
Parking: Mixed parking. Metered and timed parking.
Kid-friendliness: Family friendly
Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchairs should have no trouble. Keep in mind that this is a "small" spot to eat and no automatic door.”
“Just went on Wednesday as I was passing through. I didn’t realize that they were open do to the farmers market being right there as well. Went inside and it was beautiful. The staff was friendly and attentive. I ordered the shrimp po boy and it was very good. I will definitely be back.”
Online Reservation Available
“I was jonesing for a plate lunch and this did really fit the bill. The pretty enormous amount of kalua pork had just the right amount of salt, and was smoky. There was not too much cabbage, which was a nice change from places that mix in a lot of cabbage to lower costs. I was actually wanting a bit more cabbage. The steamed veg was about 2 bites of broccoli.
I also ordered the malasadas and, while they aren't Leonard's quality, definitely scratched that itch. They were put in the box hot and the clerk wisely punched a good sized hole in it to let the steam out. They're about the size of lime and decently fluffy inside, a bit of crispness outside, cooked the right amount.
Will definitely come again!”

“Great place with delicious food and a nice interior. There weren’t many people (lunchtime), and only a few tables were occupied. We had a reservation, but for some reason, we still had to wait about 20 minutes while our table sat empty—kind of strange. Other than that, everything was great!”
“Entrance is on the parking lot side, not the street side.
Lots of parking and seating. Great for groups and families.
We’ve been here on two occasions and had the mandu, chives and jalapeño pancake, tofu soup, bulgogi, and spicy pork.
Staff were very kind and hard working.”
“They have an entirely vegetarian menu that has a large variety of dishes that they will make completely vegan. I ordered bean rolls and a vermicelli plate. All of it was good. I was able to dine with my husband, who isn't a vegetarian, and he liked his food too. So this place is a good place to take friends who aren't vegan or vegetarian. The staff members are incredibly friendly and helpful.”

“Def the best pizza I have EVER had. Went here with my brother on our bikes with 50$ and 3 fat slices WERE LIKE 21 DOLLARS. If anyone asks me my fav pizza place im sayin dis place bruh.”
“Great food ! Wings are definitely meh if you’re expecting Korean fried chicken level wings. This is not a Korean fried chicken place. Also had a bibimbap bowl - highly recommend it. Problem is place is a bit pricey - if your a hearty eater like me expect to pay 40$+ (per person)”
Takeout Restaurants
“We got the Ceylon black tea with cream and mango passion fruit tea. They do samples on Friday and Saturday and offered us fish balls. Every time we go it’s very friendly service and I prefer it over others in the area because it’s pretty quick and quiet, without the big crowds.”
“I have lived into this neighborhood for almost 8 years. Today I was craving one of those hot dog buns and happen to find this place thru google. Gave it a try. Absolutely no regrets. Chinese donut sticks so fresh and crispy and still with the right fluff in the middle. Good sesame balls. Good egg and ham sandwich. I got 2 sesame balls. 2 pork buns. 1 egg and ham bun. 1 Chinese donut. 4 hot dog buns. And it was only $17.50! What a deal. I will definitely be back again.”
“Family run business, the son seems to be taking over with the Father monitoring and taking orders.
Legit good hole in the wall.
The door slams with any wind outside, so be aware of that.
Caldos / soups are served daily
Monster burrito 🌯 didn't hit the spot, it bombed the spot! =) will be back!
4 out of 5. It's good, because they make it right, it takes time to make it right without more employees. Just saying.
Parking: Right next to a local liquor store to buy your cervesa. 32oz in the restaurant are 10.00 - 20.00 each.”
“I kept wondering if Mrs Craig Vanessa was really an expert trader like they say, that she is not a scammer like the others, then I contacted her and I was shocked and amazed that with just $1,500 I invested, Mrs. Craig Vanessa helped me managed my account and after 7 Days of trading, I made my first withdrawal of $16,700. I'm here to testify the good work of her after she made a good profit for me in my investment. She's reachable via WhatsApp with the number on her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa”

“Perfect spot for some comfort food! The owner is amazing - kind and friendly, and so welcoming. I got the fish sandwich and I know I'll be dreaming of it and craving it incessantly. Prices are fair; for me, I ended up having 2 meals out of it. Beautifully decorated, the food is cooked to order. If you're debating it, just go for it - you're bound to find something you'll love!
Parking: A few street parking spots, but a Safeway parking lot adjacent to the restaurant.”
“great environment to come have a drink. & to meet some great people.. Plus the bartenders are wonderful...”
“Clean inside, fast friendly customer service and the food was plated perfectly and very delicious my coworker loves his sope he said it was crispy just like he likes it and I asked him is it better than the other place you like and he said yes I was so blown away by his response that I had to make a review for this place enjoy”

“FORGET L&L, ONO or Ohana. These guys way better. Better treatment and Service is great . Service kicks the rating up for this small kine place. No stink eyes here. Thank you to David for respecting the disabled. Greatly appreciate the Aloha in service there. 🙏ALOHA VIBES HEA.

“This is In n Out is a solid example of what you expect from the chain: clean bathrooms, solid food, cheap prices, friendly service.
It does stand out in that it's the only In n Out I've been to with its own security guard. It also has signs in the parking lot about not leaving your valuables in the car. We ate inside the dining room and parked our car where we could watch it.”
“I’m a vegetarian, so I can’t speak about the Q (the men in my house cried when the last wing was grabbed), but this banana pudding is so off the hook I want to cry!! So rich and creamy! I’ve eaten 1/2 of the very generous serving and I’m stuffed. I’m gunna power through it though, because I know if I save it, one of these boys will eat it!”
“We had the Halo-Halo, Tortatalong, Beef Pata, and Vegetable Lumpia—each dish was piping hot and ready in just 20 minutes. The flavors brought us right back to the Philippines! Every bite was rich, authentic, and perfectly seasoned. Whether you're craving a taste of home or want to experience the best of Filipino cuisine, Pistahan is a must-visit. We can't recommend it enough, and we can't wait to go back!”
“insanely good indian food. This has been my favorite restaurant since around 2021, and I have never stopped coming here. They have the best tikka masala i've ever had. I reccomend getting it with paneer because sometime the chicken can be a little bit dry. Their garlic naan is also super good.”
“Why is it so hard to get a waffle cone in the San Leandro Location? Today i went looking foward to nice waffle cone with some butter pecan ice cream and there was no one else in the store but me and 2 workers and the guy helping me who did not even speak till i did said they dont have any waffle cones. I asked him if he could make some and he said no he cant. Why?? u are not doing anything else? Annoying!! This is like the 5th or 6th time I have come here and they dont have waffle cones! i used to work on the BR in San Francisco years ago and it takes a whole minute to make a waffle cone. Today it was in the morning but no matter what time it is, it seems like a struggle or an issue for your employees to make a waffle cone that is on the menu”
“No frills great drinks and snacks. I really love this place's design and set up, feels old school in all the right ways. The milk shakes are great, and I love the little egg puffs. Guys working the counter were all hard work and friendly. Seems like a spot for a lot of young people to get an affordable bite. They have a lot of fun arcade and board games to try out too”
“I live in walking distance and I absolutely love this place. The food is excellent, you can smell it down the street to draw you in lol. It's a small corner restaurant with a lovely Spanish culture atmosphere. Super cool owner and staff. Love love this place??
Parking: They also hold events for those who are interested in doing large group events.
Kid-friendliness: Spacey, kid high chairs for the small children.”
“Pizza is made fresh ! No grease at the bottom. absolute delicious pizza. Support this pizza parlor instead of the corpo pizza companies A BONUS pizza by the slice”

“Had a wonderful time cider tasting! Right next to the Oyster Bay disc golf course, this cidery has an awesome atmosphere. Got to meet Cathy who was so sweet and showed me which ciders were the sweeter ones. Surprisingly, the Dry Hopped cider topped my list! I'll be back for sure”
“My old pal Limney Gilbert got kicked in the mouth by one of Bucktoothed Mary's horses a month ago, and he's had his mouth wired shut since then. This morning they cut the wires! He asked me to bring him a ham sandwich and chips from the Joaquin Deli because he's been drinking all his meals from a straw, and he's ready to chew! It's my first time at the Joaquin Deli and I'll tell you what...it's clean, the ingredients are fresh as can be and the prices are right where they should be! The workers put the customers first, and not because the boss told them too, they do it as if they owned the place! Very refreshing in today's world! 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆”
“I have been eating their veggie quesadilla for years and I am a carnivore however my entire family is OBSESSED with it it’s so good ! Make sure to get a side of beans and rice and don’t forget their spicy sacude so you can dip it in !
Vegetarian options: Veggie quesadillas”
“I did a surprise blind door dash delivery from Texas to my grieving family across town where you are locally and they were appreciative, happy and said it was delicious “it made our morning” and “never thought i would be drinking a lavender tea”If we every make it that way I will come try for myself. 🤜🏼🤛🏼 thanks”
“I KNOW THIS IS A BURGER SPOT BUT TRY THE FRICKIN CHICKEN ITS SO GOOD! Great prices and a lot of overwhelmingly delicious food. I ordered a double thinking it'd be your typical In N Out sizes but no I had to save half for later it was so big OH MY GAWD it was. 10/10 eat here again”
“Menu selections are varied and excellent. The minestrone is a very good specialty. Portions are generous. Steaks are excellent and generous in portion size. Breakfast and egg dishes are always consistent. Service is cheerful. Salads are great especially with an Elio’s Greek style dressing..”

“Gave Dave’s hot chicken a try after a long time and didn’t expect it to be up to par compared to when the location first opened but they beat all expectations.Our host made it feel like we’ve known her for a while, was really nice and accommodating.The food was fresh ,hot and didn’t take no longer then 10 minutes even though they were pretty busy. Our Host, Leslie, recommended to try the chicken with honey and it’s a MUST TRY !”

“Food was good as usual! I don’t think the waitress want to wait on me as I had to ask for chips&salsa and to bring my water while I wait for my food. When she finally brought me the food , no silverware and napkins. I went to staging area and tore off some brown paper”
“I love the broth!!!! I can tell that you must have braised the broth forever since the broth was so good. I was busy each time my husband wanted to take me so I asked him to buy to go. OMG a I opened the door coming home to smell Pho all over my home. It felt as if I was at the restaurant. The aroma was pho-Ing good!!! The meat was pho-tastic.and I love the huge volume of onions and fresh tasking ginger in every bite. If you love pho or if you love noodles or if you love food, then you must visit this Pho Thin Ha Noi - pho-ing good.”
