“Great variety of Mediterranean and greek, Turkish , Lebanese and European food”
“One of the best Indian restaurant in San Ramon. Best part is the interior with Authentic food and home made drinks. Bar includes the vibe of India Liquor served with complimentary snacks. Raj and Mohan are very friendly Servers. One of the restaurants who serve the food with Robots. Love it 😍”
“Here visiting from Illinois and the hotel staff recommended this place we ordered the cup pepperoni pizza and it is so filling and delicious!”
“Been getting to go here since the old Pleasanton location. The food has always been great and the taste has been the exact same since the old location. While the dine-in area might be a slight downgrade from the old Pleasanton location, I would definitely recommend this place to someone hoping to grab some good Sichuan food in the East Bay.”

“K-Bob is such a cute little shop! We walked in and Peter was so accommodating and friendly with menu recommendations and suggestions. We got our food pretty quickly and enjoyed the K-pop music that was playing at just the right volume. My husband enjoyed his beef rolls. I was a little surprised to receive my ramen in a microwave cup, but it was pretty tasty, if a bit spicier than I typically choose. There were lots of customers coming in and out but it wasn't too crowded or cramped. I was a little disappointed to see that they don't recycle their soda cans. Overall a very pleasant impromptu meal.”
“Delicious. Fresh. Unique. These are words i would describe the food at World Wraps. I had the basil beef wrap in a rice paper wrap and it was by far my favorite thing I've eaten in San Ramon. The staff were very helpful and extremely friendly. Thank you Diego for helping with my order, it is much appreciated!”

“Randomly stopped in on my way home from work, the guy behind the bar was super nice. I ordered an Italian sausage smash burger, if was great. Also ordered some fries which were crispy and fresh. No complaints, I don't drink but the bar seemed to be full of regulars. I'll definitely be back!”
“Great authentic bengali food presented In a home style and cozy manner. owners r very friendly. Their Illish macher jhol is to die for. I have been there 10+ time and their food makes me happy all the time.”
“I am Chinese but I am not new to India food. Among all India buffet in the Tri-Valley area, I would give Pakka Local the highest ranking with their authenticity, taste, ambiance, and variety.
Their Dragon Chicken has a very different flavor than the tandoori style and a must-try. The masala dosa is my other favorite. For $25 lunch buffet over the weekend, we even have finger millet ragi sangati, mango lassi, and shrimp curry. I cannot think of another buffet place that offers that many high quality authentic food options.
For every dish that I am not aware of, I have been using Claude AI to learn more background of the dish and the appropriate way to appreciate the dish. Well done Pakka Local!
Improvement proposal: Can we have a fish dish (preferably fillet without bone) for buffet? I think Dragon Fish would hit the spot.”

“This place was pretty good, with fresh ingredients and a nice variety of vegetables, including plenty of vegetarian options. There was a good range of choices, which made it easy for everyone to find something they enjoyed.
The service was good overall, although it did take longer than expected for our food to arrive after we placed our order. It was also a little confusing figuring out which order belonged to whom. It would be helpful if the orders were clearly marked with names or table numbers to make things easier.
The ambiance was one of the highlights. The restaurant has a great modern-industrial design that gives the space a stylish but relaxed feel. They also offer outdoor seating, which is a nice option when you want to enjoy your meal outside.
Overall, we had a good experience and appreciated the fresh ingredients, variety of options, and atmosphere.”
“Wonderful Food & Excellent Service
I had a wonderful experience at Khaki in San Ramon, The food was delicious, fresh, and beautifully prepared. Every dish we tried was full of flavor specially paneer pinwheel , lamb burrah kabab and there chilli cheese one of thebest in bay area and also the service was excellent. The staff was friendly, attentive, and welcoming, which made the whole dining experience even more enjoyable.Overall, Khaki is a great place to enjoy a delicious meal with wonderful hospitality. I highly recommend it and look forward to coming back again.”
“The service was very good, but the restaurant is a little bit understaffed. The restaurant was very clean. Restaurant was mostly quiet.
I recommend the katsu curry, it was very savory and comforting! The sushi was good (forgot to take a picture of the sushi). Also had tempera and fried squid.
The price was reasonable.
Would come back here again for sure! 🥰”
“While more expensive than most, everything here is quite a big step above any other Thai restaurant in the SF Bay area. Especially the TomKaiGai, quite simply the best I've ever had.”
“I ordered mochi donuts from Bober Tea for our hospital's National Donut Day event (serving over 500 employees) and it was a huge success!
Everything was well-organized, delicious, and ready on time.
We truly appreciate your reliability and professionalism and will absolutely continue to order mochi donuts from them.”

“The three meals were delicious. However, I did order GF angel hair pasta with my meal, but a different type of pasta was used. I took a gluten pill before eating it, so I had no problem, but some people who are not helped with the special pill would have become terribly sick. My allergy to gluten is moderate, but two acquaintances of mine absolutely cannot tolerate any gluten. If GF angel hair was not available, then someone should have called me because risotto would have been fine.”
“Everything on the menu is great. Friendly staff, they feel like family when you're there. Been here dozen times and consistently amazed. I didn't like Hot and Sour soup before I tried it here. I always make sure to get it when I'm here, as I try it at other places and nothing compares. Other favorites are honey walnut shrimp, chow main (combo but really any choice is good choice), and beef with black pepper sauce. My Grandpa would always get sweet sour fish fillet, which was tasty but not my first choice. Try this place next time you head out in search of a great Chinese Restaurant. I wish I could make it out there more often, so if you're nearby, you're in luck!”
“I got the rose milk tea (which is great by itself) and the fried tofu (spicy). Both items were 10/10. I was pleasantly surprised how crispy, tasty and spicy the tofu was. You can get it mildly spicy or very very spicy. I am glad to have T4 so close to where I live. The folks working behind the counter are super nice and hard-working.
If you are the parent of a teen or a high-schooler, you will most likely find your kid in here lol - this is so popular with the San ramonioan kidlets & teenlets alike!”
“Excellent Buffet in the Tri-Valley Area This is one of the best buffets I’ve tried in the Tri-Valley. It offers a great variety of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, catering to diverse tastes. The food is fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. While the buffet is slightly more expensive than others in the area, the quality and variety make it well worth the price. One unique highlight is the inclusion of fresh sugarcane juice as part of the buffet—an uncommon and refreshing addition that really sets this place apart. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy a premium buffet experience with a wide selection of dishes.”

“I rarely visit Carl's Jr., but I was looking for something different and possibly a little less expensive. As a doordasher, I was frequently grabbing something at the McDonald's drive-thru late at night.
I was greeted and helped by Cristobal. He was professional, courteous, and helpful. I bought the BYOB (build your own bag). For the amount you pay- you get a LOT of food! (At least I feel this way).
Everything was carefully packed in the bag, and because I ordered my hamburger in a lettuce wrap- it was tucked halfway around the cutest little wrap featuring the famous Chicken Star ⭐. It was cute enough to make me smile ☺. To me, it's the simple things that count.
I was there for maybe about 30 min while I ate. The restaurant was deserted, but I noticed that he kept busy, even with little to no customers. The entire restaurant visible to customers, was spotlessly clean!!
I will definitely be back to try some of their other unique offers! : )”
“My fiancé & I decided to try something new on a random Saturday morning. We were pleasantly surprised to find Katy’s Korner was clearly a staple of the community & for good reason. The food was top notch, the service was exceptional. The quality of kindness in each & every employee we interacted with was just what we were looking for. I highly recommend this place.”

“The ice cream flavors are unique and unusual in some cases. I had peanut butter brittle with caramel and fudge – it was delicious! My daughter had strawberry, balsamic vinegar, and black pepper. It was quite unusual, but she said it was really good. Give it a try.”
“The lemon potatoes are so simple yet delicious. The chicken skewers are always cooked perfectly. The seasonal watermelon salad is SO good, my only suggestion would be to add pistachios or something for crunch. I stop here for lunch quite a bit and the food and friendly service are always consistent. Ordering ahead and picking up is also super easy on their app, though when I’ve walked in they’ve been fast without sacrificing yummy.”
“Our family has known Peni, Sherry,there kids and grandkids for over 12 yrs now. Once I saw and smelled the bbq over 12 yrs ago I gravitated towards it and have been a huge fan since. Their island q is the best on the mainland and I recommend trying it all since I don’t have a favorite. You can see the passion and love that this family puts towards sharing a little bit of their heritage through their food with all of us. I highly recommend giving it a try and definitely passing the word to others. Spend some time and say hi and you might also have friends for life. Mahalo 🤙”
“Sandwicheez has become my favorite lunch spot! They have great selection of sandwiches with very reasonable price! I love their sourdough bread and all the ingredients (the works) that goes in their sandwiches, always very fresh and super tasty! At Sandwicheez you also get the friendliest service that you can ask for! I highly recommend this place!”

“I've been craving a man'ousheh for a while, and I made the perfect choice! Bad morning bakery made my good morning 😂 The zaatar and cheese man'ousheh was so perfectly made, the dough was very soft, the owners and staff are so clean and friendly ❤ We even tried the chicken shawerma wrap and I definitely suggest everyone tries it too. Now I'll be waiting for next Saturday to taste my childhood food again. 😋”
“My #1 favorit neighbor restaurant. Good food, good service and reasonable price
Perfect place for family and friends together without cooking stresses. The chefs are amazing and flexible. We 6 friends did our own special orders. The turnout was so delicious!!!
Highly recommend.”
“I saw a sign for gourmet ice cream and I obviously had to stop in. This place beyond exceeded my expectations! I got the saffron pistachio ice cream and it is one of the most delicious ice creams I've ever had. Perfect balance of sweet and mild and I can see myself craving this. The people there were so nice and friendly as well. 1000% recommend!”
“The chicken was awesome and brilliant .I got 2 ranches .3 drums that were really tasty and in point. I was hungry .I like there krunchy chicken .il go back for sure asap .Good place for gas and snacks .San Ramon Ca .Open space to work my car and eat .It was not crowded at all .”
“Super impressed by the hospitality offered by an 8 th grader. Food is delicious. Who makes the food maters as much as the ingredients. I would say both are well balanced here. Feeling the warmth of the host is not something you experience at every restaurant. Sitting arrangement is limited because its an upcoming place. Barring that there is nothing you may not like about the place.”
“I met friends (who had never experienced Thai food before) at House of Basil for lunch. I ordered for us, because I'm a big fan of Thai food, and selected Satay, Green Curry with Chicken, Rendang Beef, and of course, some Pad Thai. Everything was delicious! I highly recommend this restaurant, and will definitely return when I'm back in the area!”
“Stopped by on a work trip. Ordered two sushi roles, a bowl of miso soup, and a large Sapporo beer. The food was excellent, service was very friendly, and I walked away happy. If you enjoy sushi in a relaxed atmosphere, this is the place to go.”
“I bought a fruit cup at the Earth Bar in LAX because the fruit looked like there was a possibility that every piece might actually be ripe. I was pleasantly surprised to discover every piece was indeed ripe-kiwi, mango, pineapiple, and grapes. This is a first for me in mass-marketed fruit cups.”

“This restaurant offers a wide variety of delicious dishes and has an incredibly friendly staff. The food is absolutely fantastic, especially the dosa and filter coffee.
I had the pleasure of interacting with Mr. Hardeep, Gurdeep, Siddhu, and Shivangi, who were all incredibly helpful and accommodating. They made sure that I had a wonderful experience.
Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant. It’s a must-visit, especially if you’re in San Ramon. Don’t miss out on trying their amazing food!”
“Absolutely delicious! We had the Mango Bingsoo and it was so refreshing. The shaved ice was incredibly soft and fluffy, the mango was fresh, and I loved that the condensed milk was served on the side so we could add just the right amount of sweetness. The portion was huge and perfect for sharing. Such a fun dessert experience, especially on a warm day.”
“Let me tell ya the chocolate waffle with salted cheese changed my life forever. When I picked up my order, I met the owner and he was really sweet and welcoming. We had a short convo but my experience with the food and atmosphere made my day. I’m def coming back. I’m literally trying to stop myself from going back now and getting another waffle and I’m not even done with the one I just got lol. 10/10”
“As the PTA President for Live Oak Elementary, I’ve had the pleasure of working closely with the owners of Baskin-Robbins San Ramon, Ranga and Anusha, and they have been nothing short of amazing. They have generously sponsored our school events and are always so supportive of our community. Both of them are kind, professional, and truly wonderful to work with. The store is always clean, welcoming, and well-run, and the customer service is consistently excellent. You can feel the care and pride they put into their business. We are so grateful to have such a thoughtful and community-minded local business in San Ramon.”
“I'd like to give a shout out to not only this location but to so many locations who have to suffer thru rude, angry customers. It's a cup of coffee people. If you have to wait you have to wait like everyone else. If you're asked to wear a mask put it on inside. They have had supply chain struggles, supply shortages, staff shortages, and yet most of the time you're greeted with a smile. I know this is great coffee and with all the stress we've been under it's hard to remember but everyone is stressed. The sugar cookie flavoring over the Holidays made me less stressed!”
“Philz Coffee never disappoints. Once again, they did an outstanding job—my coffee was perfectly crafted and absolutely delicious. The flavor was rich, smooth, and just the way I like it. You can really taste the care they put into every cup. It’s consistently great, and that’s why I keep coming back. Delicious as always”

“Best McDonald's you will find in the ENTIRE East Bay! It's clean, it's fully equipped with proper employees, fully stocked with all needs and necessities, and even their employees seem happier than most other McDonald's employees! I do a lot of traveling around the Bay and out of all the fast food places I have been, this is one of the best. Prices are a little steep, but it's the area and plus it should be. Best location I've been to! Kudos guys! Keep up the good work!”
“What an experience at Shish Grill. This review is longtime overdue. One of the best Lebanese and Mediterranean restaurants in California. I used to come here for work all the time but now I moved here with family and it’s our favorite restaurant. Love their Mansaf, Maklouba, Hummus, Tabouli and Knafeh.
Chef Nancy is amazing. It feels home when I come here. Atmosphere inside and outside patio are amazing.
Will be back!
Thank you Chef Nancy!”
“This location is simply superior - it’s the best chipotle in town!
From the staff to the management and quality of the food - absolutely superb. I am blessed to live close to this location, been coming everyday for almost a week and I’m not getting tired of it…. They put extra love in their burritos… and the manager always has a smile on his face makes me want to come back every time!”
“Tami(k/c)a at the San Ramon Taco Bell is the kind of person every brand hopes the customer will meet first.
She is always helpful, always kind, and always clear in the way she communicates. There is a steadiness to her that turns a quick stop for food into something warmer and more human. She listens, she explains, she makes things feel handled, and she does it all with the kind of grace that cannot be trained from a manual alone.
A brand is not strengthened only by its signs, its menu, or its marketing. It is strengthened by people like Tamika, people who make the experience feel cared for. She represents Taco Bell in the best possible way: with patience, kindness, professionalism, and a genuine sense of welcome.
She is exactly the kind of person who makes customers want to come back.”

“Absolutely delicious home-style desi food! Uma’s Kitchen has become one of our favorites. Everything tastes fresh, flavorful, and genuinely homemade, and the food is always super clean and well prepared.
I especially love the weekly menus and the occasional weekend feasts, which give us something new to look forward to. The flavors are excellent, and they can adjust the spice level to your preference, which is a big plus.
If you’re looking for tasty, comforting, home-style Indian food in the San Ramon area, definitely give Uma’s Kitchen a try. Highly recommended!”
“We ordered the daal bhaati churma and the combo thali. They were both absolutely delicious and filling. We were very delighted to have visited the restaurant. The daal bhati churma was absolutely delicious. It’s super filling as well. And the malai kofta and daal makhani was just too good. Malai kofta was just top notch everything was just so good. This is one restaurant I would definitely recommend. Good ambience music and everything.”
“Visited your location at Fremont Farmers Market today. Delicious drinks and your employee Matthew is a delight! We will see you again.”
“We did takeout and were super impressed with the quality of the food! We ended up trying the soy chorizo, cactus, shrimp, chicken, and fish tacos. All the tacos were fresh and flavorful but the star was truly the fish taco. The sauces also pair really nicely with the tacos but I do wish they were a bit spicier.
If you’re looking to dine in, the interior is decorated super cute and they have outdoor seating as well. For families with small babies, they also have a really nice high chair available. If you are looking for a fun spot with incredible food, you definitely need to check this place out!”
“Alora Social in San Ramon is such a fun spot for a night out! The atmosphere is vibrant and inviting, making it perfect for date night, a celebration, or an evening with friends.
The food is excellent and beautifully presented. Definitely don’t skip the hummus platter—it’s fresh, creamy, and served with warm, fluffy bread and delicious accompaniments. Everything we ordered was flavorful and well prepared.
The cocktails are another highlight. They have a great selection of creative, handcrafted drinks that pair perfectly with the food.
For an extra special experience, I highly recommend visiting on a Saturday evening when they have live belly dancing. It adds such a fun and energetic element to the night and really makes the experience memorable.
One tip: make a reservation, especially for Saturday nights and weekends. They can get very busy!
Great food, fantastic cocktails, welcoming service, and a lively atmosphere make Alora Social one of my favorite spots in San Ramon. Definitely worth a visit!”
“I ALMOST gave it a 5 stars, but the birria was not as crispy or flavorful as I would have liked. The fries could also be crispier, especially in the Cali burrito. But overall, the carne asada burrito and fish taco were really spot on. I’m from San Diego and LA, so I have high standards for Mexican food. We don’t have a place like this in the tri-valley, so I’m glad it’s here! Will definitely be back, and likely during late nights!”
“Very good food with good service. Definitely, recommend for a visit”
