Welcome to our beautifully restored Victorian with a contemporary twist. Neumanali opened fifteen years ago and quickly became a neighborhood favorite.

We are open for indoor dining. Patio seating is available. We are not requiring masks for those who have been vaccinated, however, we appreciate your adherence to the state masking requirements for those not vaccinated.

The menu features both fresh and seasonal entrees in addition to a selection of fun and unusual small plates. Perennial favorites are the pan-seared day boat scallops, grilled ribeye and pan seared pork chop. The wine list is a bit eclectic and features smaller, more difficult to find winery selections. Lush garden dining is available now.

    The food was, as always, great. Flavorful and prepared to perfection. Somehow the front of the house is managed with only one person, who did a great job. The pace of the meal was just right for us - not overly relaxed but not too rushed. This is my favorite place for a special event in the Hayward/Fremont/Union City area.

    I had high expectations based on positive reviews I read before dining at Neumanali. Despite the consistently similar negative reviews OVER MULTIPLE YEARS regarding the 'host-server-busser' one person show, I kept an open mind. Unfortunately, the reviews were accurate. While efficient, he was snappy, curt, charmless and worst of all we felt that we were rushed in making our choices from the moment we entered the restaurant. I'll spare you the details; suffice it to say, that our special anniversary celebration, which was not even acknowledged, will be remembered in a not so pleasant way. Prices were reasonable for the wine bottle (Samuel Robert Pinot Noir, 2022), warm goat cheese salad, lamb chops, scallops, cheese cake and sundae. I was not happy with the overly sweet potatoes under 4 tiny scallops and the salad that needs more than one, bigger warm goat cheese. My husband enjoyed the tender lamb chops but did not like the chewy, roasted potatoes. Desserts were ordinary.
