Best restaurants near me in Castro Valley, CA

I loved the gluten-free, caraway crackers, which are very crisp and thin with great flavor. We were impressed with the mushroom and hemp seed paté with rice crackers. The short ribs were the best part of the meal for me. I don’t remember last time, but this time the galangal pork strips seemed a bit dry. Maybe too lean. I only had a little bit of the pork belly, the leaner part. It seemed overdone this time around, or maybe I should’ve had a fattier piece. I remember loving the pork belly last time, so I would try those again. The small plates are really unique and fun. I’ll come back to keep trying things! This was our 3rd visit.

Very nice experience! We were seated pretty quickly and our server/bartender did an excellent job keeping up with our orders and even though he had two jobs (maybe they were short that night), he was as attentive and friendly as he could be, and the margaritas were excellent!

We have been going to this restaurant for years and we are never disappointed, the staff is amazing and the food is wonderful!!!

The food here is always amazing! I neglected to consider that it is during the holidays, so they were a lot busier than I expected. Therefore, I think our waitress may have been a little overwhelmed, so she didn't check in on us as timely as I would have liked. The temperature in the restaurant was also a little too warm for me. I would always recommend this restaurant because of the amazing food!

This place is a gem, nothing but great things can be said about this place. I almost hate to tell people how good it is, because I would like it all for myself. Must try!!!
