    Went here for a quick lunch before an appointment. It still has the green burrito signs so I ordered the 3 chicken taquitos. They didnt look like the picture at all. They were just the frozen ones you get at the grocery store on top of some lettuce and a little bit of toppings. For $8?! I had 2 and gave my daughter the 3rd one. It just tasted like crunchy tortilla chips.

    Steak green burrito. It was excellent and big!

    I've been coming to this Carl's Jr for a long long time. They always have excellent service and the lady that always seems to be working the drive when I come in a alway soooo friendly. She is such a ray of sunshine and the sweetest thing ever! I need to find out her name next time so she gets the props she deserves. I tried the green burrito stuff tonight for the first time. It was excellent! It put Taco Bell to shame! As with the rest of Carl's Jr the food is pricey for fast food, but it is quality! I got the steak green burrito and it was big! So needless to say I ordered way to much food. Also got a crunchy taco which was excellent. And the bean and cheese burrito which was really good and surprisingly big. I'll be getting the green burrito menu from now on (along with the other wonderful menu items). Parking is abundant and it is a very clean well kept restaurant. Wish more fast food joints would get it together like this place.

    Okay, I know you're all gonna laugh and roll your eyes, but this is the best Carl's Jr. I've EVER EATEN AT!!! As a matter of fact, I think it's close to the best fast food restaurant on Planet Earth!!! The burgers are always prepared to perfection, as good as any "no name family burger joint." The variety of food, in a fast food restaurant, is mind-boggling. Six + different variety of 1/2 pound burgers, are you kidding me?!!!! The french fries, around 4-6 different varieties of potatoes prep? 4 different desserts? Milkshakes with whip cream and 4 different flavors. A full Mexican Food menu, with Taquitos, Burriots, Tacos..... A SALSA BAR, with consistently stocked condiments? Are you kidding me? Fresh Pico de Gallo? Hot and spicy pepers? Lemons? Are you kidding me? This is a fast food restaurant!!!! There may be around 12 different beverages at a self-serve fountain, fairly common in places like 7-11 and those types of shops. But in a fast food restaurant, normally about 6 - 8 soft drinks. I don't think I've ever seen this high quality of a Carl's Jr Restaurant, at any other location!!!! Trust me, I've tried. (the one in Newark/Fremont sucks by the way!!!) HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! (I haven't even mentioned the breakfast menu!!!) The price is a bit high, but the result is very satisfactory!!!!

    My breakfast at this local eatery was quite pleasant. My server brought my order out to me. There's only one fastfood place that has that service. She gave me a pleasant start to my morning. Food and coffee, just what I needed. It was a carb overload. Couldn't believe they made this a combo. However, it's Alameda and prices aren't cheap, even for fastfood.

    Spicy Chicken Sandwich

    i ordered the spicy chicken since i was craving some and in and out's line was so long (i dont wanna wait) so i went here and when i get home my bread was burnt the fact that i couldn't eat it because it's too hard for me to bite (because i have braces & it sucks) i hope the one in the kitchen doesn't do this all the time because i know all the people who's working and worked here especially elaine! I know she's hands-on and very nice (i used to work here)

Hubby got a Black Garlic Fried Chicken Sandwich with Fried Chicken Thigh, Black Garlic Sauce, House Pickles & Pear Slaw on toasted brioche bun. He enjoyed it but it wasn't filling enough for him.

Fowl + Fare operates from a small storefront right next to the Shanvi Indian Grocery store on Santa Clara Ave (near Broadway). This place is either takeout or eat outside on picnic tables. I took my food to-go. I had the Citric Hot Chicken Sandwich w/ Seasoned Fries. I liked the Citric Hot Chicken Sandwich. It was spicy, but not numbing hot. The slaw sort of smoothed out the spicy heat. It's made from thigh meat, so it's moist and easy to eat. I didn't like the seasoned fries. They cut the potatoes into thin fries that don't travel well as takeout. Probably okay if you ate them right there, fresh from the kitchen. If I go back, I'm just getting a sandwich.....no fries.

    I actually haphazardly stumbled upon this place a few months back after hanging out at a brewery…read morenext door. After scoping out the vibes of the place and the menu, I told myself to make sure to give this a shot. The place is in a redeveloped corner of Alameda right next to the bay. Probably used to be Navy base grounds back in the day. But now there's a couple of blocks worth of hip warehouse-y type of buildings, mostly restaurants, beer spots, some lofts and a little retail commerce. Very happening even though the surrounding area is a ghost town. Dining area not too big, maybe a couple of rooms that can hold about 20-30 heads each. Think there's another room for a private party/overflow. Decor pretty minimalist and stark. Service on the upscale side but in my stay, matched the decor, very minimalist and stark. Efficient enough but a little terse with little emotion. But I know service personality can differ from time to time or person to person. Just my obsy for one out. Daily Crudo ($20/4*) I think this rotates daily. Our choices that day was hamachi or a house smoked sturgeon. The sturgeon really piqued my interest but then it really wouldn't be a 'crudo' anymore would it, since I relate crudos to something 'raw-ish'. So I chose the hamachi. Very pretty plating, I love symmetry and balance. The thin slices of hamachi were indeed fresh, sitting in a stealthy pool of yuzu and olive oil. There are some fresno pepper slices and microgreens that garnish and a delicious nori cracker to break and accompany the crudo. This went really well with my glass of Fume Blanc. Caeser ($17/4.5*) We split this salad as their version sounded super cool. A miso-tinged Caeser dressing, lots of rustic garlic croutons and feathery soft grated parm and a soft-boiled egg. I love properly made Caesers and this was one of the best and unique versions I've ever had. The umami punch and the diverse textures just hit with me. A tad salty for a salad, but the crunchy and refreshing lettuce was able to absorb the salt blast. Huge salad too, like ideal for splitting and ridiculously large if for 1. Beef Short Rib ($43/4*) This was on special that night, and since I wasn't feeling Steak Frites (their only other beef entree option) this kinda fell on my lap. Very heavy and hearty dish. The short rib part was impeccable, super tender, gotta be sous vide. Perfectly seasoned with braising elements completely penetrated into the meat. There was a coarse gravy/sauce that covered which was okay, may have been the braising liquid just pureed. Served atop a huge pile of some risotto that I didn't inquire about. This risotto is what made the dish especially heavy. I ate most of it and it put me in a heavy carb coma. Lol. But there was a nice serving of perfectly cooked broccolini which helped balanced out the rich beef and carb heavy risotto. Chocolate Bar ($13/4.5*) Shared this for dessert as I really couldn't take more than just a few bites after the filling entree. But was this impressive, like high end dessert quality. Whoever does the desserts here definitely has some pedigree. The precision cut bar consisted of 3 layers. A brownie layer; a Bailey's mousse; and a salted caramel layer. I was loving the texture of all the different layers playing on one another. And every flavor was distinct without being overly sweet, which hit the right chords with me. A thick ganache garnished off to the side, which was good but just seemed a bit overkill with the already chocolate dominant bar. I think a cream element would have been a better contrast instead of rich chocolate on rich chocolate. But very minor quip on an otherwise skillful dessert. I finished the last few sips of my glass of Rhone with this dessert, and it left me one happy camper. I would definitely return as their style with flavors hits an accord with me. A little French, a smidge of Japanese and a lot of California. Rounding to a fiver, as this place made me more happy than not.

We ordered the corn fritter, Trip's Triple, Butter mochi and their pour over coffee. The corn fritters with the strawberry jam were excellent. Who would of thought this combination would work. Those crunchy corn fritters with the strawberry jam made for a very tasty combination. The Trip's Triple of pork, beef and chicken with a side salad, was very tasty and tender. Using slow roasting and not being smoked meats, the natural flavors of the meats came through. Very tasty flavors, each one of them. The side salad was light but worth a kick of jalapeno peppers. So watch out! We finished with the Butter Mochi and pour over coffee for dessert. The mochi with the pineapple was light and took me back to Hawaii. I was told by Patrick, this was the executive chef's grandmother's recipe. Oh, was it really good! You all need to order this dessert as well as their pour over coffee. Smoothest coffee I've had in a long time. Parking can be difficult since it is street parking. Prices can be high depending on which entree you order.

Since moving to the neighborhood earlier this year, I have walked past TrueBurger quite a few times on my way to/from the 19th Street BART Station, and I was excited to give it a try. I was initially thinking I would get a burger, but my friend had to postpone getting together until the mid-afternoon, so I ate lunch at home and opted for a milkshake when we met a couple hours later. I had seen a special coconut shake on the menu on the TrueBurger website; I'm a big fan of most things coconut, and especially ice cream. I was eager to taste the shake...and my excitement quickly turned to disappointment when I realized it was just a vanilla shake with shredded coconut. Why is TrueBurger trying to pass this off as a coconut shake? It's far less novel, but it's perfectly acceptable to only offer vanilla and chocolate shakes. The mix-ins actually put them one step ahead of much of the competition, but misleading customers is never okay. To add insult to injury, I have tried reaching out to TrueBurger via email, and management is incredibly unresponsive. They could have easily fixed this by offering me a refund or asking me to come back in for a shake on the house. Do better, TrueBurger.
