Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Alameda

The food was delicious and eating outside across from Lake Merritt is a pleasure! The avocado toast (with a generous serving of green salad) was beautifully prepared, as was the pastrami benedict that my partner ate (unlike many we've had, it was not drowned in hollandaise sauce but simply topped with it). My only reservation was about the eggs on the avo toast. I asked the server to make sure the yolks were "not runny." She wrote down and repeated the instruction. But when they arrived, they were totally runny. She offered to get me a scrambled egg instead - which arrived perfectly prepared. But then I was charged for it. I think if the kitchen makes an error they need to make good on it, without additional charge. Other than that, it was a wonderful meal.

For us had brunch there today and everyone really enjoyed their meals. The French toast was delicious, the grilled cheese bacon sandwich was great and the way rancheros was very good. Great service and good coffee! We’ll go back!

I really like this place. Very efficient waiter and great good. The lunch specials are very good value.

I would like to thank Sergio for his assistance, which made our experience very enjoyable.
