    The food is for the most part edible. I'd compare it to hometown buffet for the quality. I do enjoy the breakfasts there tho.

    It's been so long since I've been to Pear Street Bistro, and while in the area recently for a few…read moreevents, I popped in with some friends on two different occasions. Love seeing this spot so lively! Both visits were for apps and sips, but I did notice they added more dishes and variety to the menu for lunch/dinner options. Friendly service, fun atmosphere, and also different rooms within the space pending what your feeling ~ the bar area for drinks/apps, the restaurant space if wanting to truly sit down and have that type of intimate environment too. The Pear Salad has always been my go-to, and happy it's still on the menu. Chopped lettuce, gorgonzola crumbles, candied walnuts, champagne vinaigrette, and pear slices. I also enjoyed the Cheese Please for sharing, which comes with toast, three different cheeses, dried cranberries, pears, candied walnuts, and olives. Can you sense the pear theme? We were heading to a play at the Pinole Community Playhouse (walkable & across the street), but check out Pear Street's fun happy hours, events, and weekly specials. Plenty of restaurant parking in the back too.

    Came here for the Cinco De Mayo event. We were a party of 9. They had a DJ…read more The food came out hot and it was delicious. They were no complaints in the area from anyone. One of our party members ordered the Rum Punch. It was overly sweet. Another ordered a drink that was not great at all, sent it back.. only to be told that they do not take back drinks, but made an exception that time. However, if the drink is made wrong or disgusting.. there shouod be understanding around that. We ordered the bottomless Mimosas. It seemed like it was difficult to get a grenadine on the side because I had to constantly ask for it. We had to talk to the manager because our waitress was not consistent with the pouring of bottomless. We lost about 30 to 45 mins of time because of it. The manager understood and granted us more time. I also did not like that fact that our finished plate sat on the table way longer than what they should have. Maybe the waiter was overwhelmed or overworked.

    This was not my choice of restaurant but I went w/ my uncle & aunt, real meat eaters !!…read moreSo the waitress stated this is a meat place & they stopped carrying veggie burgers , plus they had no vegetables ! NO VEGETABLES ?!! But I was able to get a very plain salad ( iceberg, cucumber, tomato & croutons ) a w/italian dressing plus some sautéed mushrooms & the ever reliable French fries !! ( Definitely not a place for vegans but vegetarians would be ok if they ate dairy & eggs ) I couldn't believe they discontinued the veggie burger & had no frozen California blend veggies ! I won't be going back !!!!! Plus the fries were not that great either !! They were shoestrings but some were overcooked : really hard & dry ( uneatable ) ! There was not really notable decor , but it just seemed old & outdated, not in a charming way !!

    So I never leave reviews but this time I have to. My family and I have been eating at Embers since…read moreI was 5 or 6 years old and have always liked the food. The last 4 times my parents have gone there, Embers has gotten a simple plain cheeseburger wrong. My sister always asks for "A plain cheeseburger, meat and cheese only" This time we were given a plain hamburger, no cheese or anything else. The times before were a hamburger with mayonnaise, a cheeseburger that literally had everything on it and the other time it was a plain hamburger again. I don't know if the food ticketing system has changed or what but I've heard my sister order a plain cheeseburger each time while on the phone with them and this is what happens ...

    Service was rude. Was not just me either 2-3 orders after me felt the same. After placing my order…read moreshe told me to "take your receipt" rudely. The order after me even tipped her & she didn't even say thank you. We've eaten here plenty of times before, the worker taking the order today was new to us. This location also doesn't offer the option to have pie warmed. Again plenty of times before today, the workers (not from today) would kindly warm it up in the worker's microwave.

    Ok-so I've been coming to this location since I was a little kid-so I got nostalgia on my side-this…read morewas the spot my parents would take us after an evening at the bowling alley,Lucky Lanes,which is now the Casino and I loved going here.I would also come here as a high schooler after the football games or late night parties-we would head to Nations on San Pablo Avenue for a late night burger and fries-it was the spot.Now as an aging adult I find myself still going to Nations on San Pablo Avenue when I find myself in the area,which is rare because I now live in Sacramento-well lucky for me,after a day in SF,I found myself in the area,so you know I had to stop at Nations on San Pablo Avenue Baby!!! Parking at this spot,never a problem,plenty of spots,they are a single tenant with all the parking their own-so no issues there. Walking in there,I don't even really need to look at the menu,though taking a quick glance at it before I ordered,they have added quite a few new breakfast items-that's the thing that is a a beauty of Nations-u can get breakfast or burgers at any time,so many options when you go there-that being said,I always get the burger-it's my favorite-I love it.I got the cheeseburger with extra mustard and pickles,grilled onions and jalapeños-no tomatoes($9.95) added fries($3.75) and a chocolate shake ($6.95). I added an oldie but goodie as well just for fun-a slice of banana crème pie($6.95)Just for the record,I wasn't the only one there,so other people were helping with the fries and pie. Here is the thing-this place is a messy old school grease pit-it's reliable-it will always be that-when u eat one of their burgers it will always end in a greasy mess-will have a plethora of mustard,mayo and grilled onions juice and whatever else comes from that burger all over your hands,but it's great-sounds kinda wild but it's really great and it's definitely happening and I love it. The fries are just alright-they are old school fries with reliable taste but nothing out of this world.Chocolate shakes on the other hand-they advertise them as THICK milk shakes and that isn't an understatement-you got to let these things melt for a bit or else your getting lockjaw-but they are wonderful and never miss an opportunity to order one-must have item every visit.As I've stated in previous reviews on other locations-you could never go wrong with pie from Nations and that still holds true-they are always so good and a perfect way to end a way too heavy greasy heavenly meal. In closing-if u ever find yourself near a Nations and u feel like having a throwback of a burger,one you would've enjoyed in the 80s,90s or today-go ahead and stop on by this spot and enjoy yourself like you would've 20 or 30 years ago.

    It was hot and ice cream sounded really good. On this day, we passed by Foster Freeze to get home…read moreso we decided to give it a try. This was the first time visiting a Foster Freeze for my daughter and for myself. Parking was ample. There was seating available inside and out. Upon entering, we were immediately greeted. The cashier was very friendly with a warm smile. My daughter immediately picked the cookies and crème twister from the poster on the wall. I got the same in cookie dough. A small twister with an add-in was $6.99. My daughter's order came out immediately and mine arrived a few minutes later. The twister was nothing special. The vanilla custard was thick and creamy, the add in was ugh in portion. For what we received, if I paid $3.99 I would have no gripes. I am familiar with A&W and Dairy Queen's versions where the topping is plentiful, mixed in well and every bite has the combination of flavors. At Foster Freeze's we received mostly custard with some bites of the add in. I would have preferred the topping to be mixed in like a twister. Doubt we would return. Customer service was stellar, our food selections were not bad, just not the standard I am accustomed to. Custard was yummy.

    I have noy had Fosters Freeze since 2000. 26 years later I ate here…read more California Grilled Chicken was lower back in 2000. The price of the burger now is worth the money. I enjoyed my Grilled Chicken. It wasn't hard to chew on. Fosters Freeze is perhaps the longest business pre 2000s. They been in business almost longer than Red Onion off Pinole Valley. For the price of their food is worth dinning inside. When I went on a Saturday Morning not much of a crowd but it looks like locals do come to a landmark place.
