"AnaRosas has a warm, family-friendly atmosphere that feels like home. The owner is incredibly kind and clearly puts a lot of care into cooking the food. I’ve tried the Caldo Verde, burritos, crunchy tacos, traditional tacos, chicken soup, and the burrito topped with sauce, and each dish felt special. A nice touch is that they serve a small cup of beans with the chips while you wait, which is great if you're feeling hungry. Their salsa is flavorful and has just the right kick, which I appreciate since I enjoy spicy food. They also remember what you ordered, showing they pay attention to their customers. Every time I visit, I’m reminded of why I keep coming back. My daughter loves joining me, and she always orders chicken tacos. We truly love this place!"

Joe's Pho

"I visited a pho restaurant on a Sunday afternoon and found it to be 85% full, which was a good sign that people liked this place.To start off, I ordered a cafe sua dua, which I thought would be served in one of those drip coffee tools that you see at other Vietnamese restaurants, but instead it was served in a plastic boba cup. However, I was pleasantly surprised by how it tasted. It was smooth, but a little too sweet.Next, I ordered the dac biet, which is the chef's special, and went for the large portion. The large was definitely too much for me to eat . But the pho itself was delicious. It was served with a ton of green onions, which gave it a nice freshness, and there was also a good amount of beef, more than what I'm used to at other Vietnamese restaurants. The noodles were also fresh and not clumped together.The meal cost me around $30 for a drink and a large pho, so it wasn't the cheapest option out there.Overall, I enjoyed this pho restaurant. I appreciated the portions of meat and fresh noodles. If you don't mind paying a bit more, I would definitely recommend giving this place a try."

"Reina's was pretty alright! I definitely want to return to try the BBQ mix, but i'm rarely in the East. That said, I saw Reina's on the way to the library and told myself I'd return for pupusas when I was done. Parking is trash lol. I ended up parking in the red outside of the restaurant and placed my order over the phone. I initially wanted just four pupusas two queso, two queso y loroco but three for $11 isn't a bad deal at all, so I ended up getting 6 for $22. I also ordered two plates of plantains, crema, beans and rice. Overall it was a delicious meal. I didn't eat the crema with the plantains because it's just not my thing, but the pupusas were everything I wanted everything I expected. Quesillo is so delicious. Though they're not the same I often compare pupusas to quesadillas when explaining what a pupusa is to someone who has never had it, but I always state that I strongly prefer pupusas because they're thicker and I like the cheese (quesillo) much better."

"Was running an errand and was craving some Dim sum. Could not remember the place we use to go in San Leandro so found this place on Yelp.Got the lunch special which came with soup. Pork with chili peppers over rice and Shanghai pork Xiao king bao dumplings, and meal came with tea.The soup was delicious, I asked and it was a vegetable soup, mostly cabbage in an earthy pork broth that was light and full of flavor. The pork pieces specially bigger ones where a little dry but most of them came with a thick belly fat that melted in your mouth and was actually quite good. The red chili sauce was the best part of the dish and went well with the perfectly cooked Bok Choi. The dumplings exploded in your mouth with a tangy, flavorful and very generous amount of broth. Pork inside was tender and had lots of spice. The tea was just right and I really enjoyed my lunch. They did not have shu mei which is what I really wanted along with dumplings but this was a enjoyable and service was good. I was worried because it was lunch time and there was not anyone here but several people showed up after I started eating and all local so that confirmed my experience. No frills decir bit some cookout old pictures of what I presume is Shanghai in the walls."

"Paradiso is my favorite local restaurant! The food is excellent and the drinks are expertly made. I love the diverse ways you can enjoy Paradiso depending on the restaurant's layout. You can sit at the bar and watch the game, sit by the window and people-watch, or sit at the counter in front of the pizza oven and witness the cooking magic right before your eyes. The menu offers a fantastic variety of options. My top picks are the crab and avocado salad, the ribeye steak, and the irresistible garlic fries. The burgers are a must-try as well. They also have some great vegetarian options! The clam chowder is better than anything I've had in San Francisco or anywhere else! The service is top-notch, and the atmosphere is fantastic. I highly recommend the Dungeness Crab Avocado, New England Clam Chowder, Rib Eye Steak Dinner, and Garlic Prawns. Meal type: Dinner. Price per person: $100+. Food: 5 stars. Service: 5 stars. Atmosphere: 5 stars."
