"Everything we ate was delicious! The stuffed falafel were a wonderful take on one of my favorite dishes. All the different salads and hummus were fantastic. We ended our meal with a delightful dessert that was impossible to resist.We also got to meet the owner and had a wonderful chat with her during our visit. The rest of the staff was equally charming."

"Ordered nigiri combo to go and when I went to pickup the order, I was surprised with smallness of the package. Taste of nigiri and rolls were very good but their sizes are tiny and disappointing."

"Coffee was good but breakfast sandos at this location are bad. The tiniest quarter slick of bacon on my Turkey Bacon Egg White Sandwich. Barely 1/4 my bun. Same with the Bacon Cheddar Brioche. Like some kind of bacon shortage of both pork and turkey varieties. So little you could barely taste it. Like if hint water had a bacon flavor. Also the buns were rubbery. The bread of the egg and Egg Cheese was hard like it was microwaved 3 times. Maybe because the dasher was so late they reheated it over and over? Very odd because it's not that bad at the Alameda location."

"Came in hearing that Burma Superstar was super popular in the area so wanted to try it myself. I got the Superstar fries because it was the cheapest thing on the menu and the description sounded pretty delicious, describing it as a spicy, savoury, umamibomb with a condiment called balachaung. Once I started eating though, it tasted horrendous. I tossed most of it. I laterlearned after looking online that balachaung is made with shrimp, and I do not eat seafood. It would have been greatly helpfulif the description explained what balachaung was, especially for people with allergies."

"Local hidden Diamond bakery located at inner Berkeley, next to the Fairmont hotel. We ordered croissant, scones and some more. Very tasty and special, especially the walnut scone, unlike the others , it’s not too sweet but the favor of the nuts is highly enhanced, the unique taste made it outstanding among other bakeries!"

"I really do enjoy this place but they've become kind of stingy with the injera and the portions. Not enjoy Injera for my meal. Hopefully this is only temporary because the flavors are amazing."
