    Sheppard Pie - Lamb
    Tom U.

    A unique food shop in the Bay Area. Walking into the store, you have a sense of personality to it. The owner of this shop reflects the friendly atmosphere of it. The cook too. I got two pies from there, you can get it either frozen or cooked. This place has the most unique pie flavors and classics of course. I found the curry the most unique, and fresh. There is both indoor eating and outdoor eating, and parking wasn't an issue when I was there. I would recommend this place. Love the food, and friendly staff.

    My client said he'd buy me lunch if i promise to drop him off at his stylist after our appointment. According to Yelp, this restaurant is along the way and i like pot pies so we stopped here for lunch. We ended up getting the Tuesday Lunch Special of Swedish meatballs & noodles for $12.50. I wanted the pies but my client placed the order & paid before i made up my mind. Oh well, now i have a reason to come back

    Cute little pie shop and deli, hidden in an industrial building in Hayward, with plenty of savory options for lunch last week. Got the classic american chicken pot pie, and it was served hot (50 cents extra for heated pies vs frozen) and ready in less than 10 minutes. It was delicious, filled with large chunks of white meat free range chicken and potatoes, as well as bits of carrots and peas, the pie crust baked just right with a nice buttery flavor... a perfectly satisfying meal. A welcoming atmosphere where the staff felt like family. The space is bigger than it looks, including indoor seating and a fish tank with various fish I heard the worker, possibly the owner, telling stories about to a customer. There's even an additional room full of tables and seating and lovely decor and artwork on the walls. Hours are limited (only open till 3pm), but the steady flow of customers on a Thursday afternoon, many of which were seemingly regulars, tells me that this place must be doing something good that has people coming back for more.

    I finally stopped by to try this pot pie shop near my workplace. I found them while searching for local eats and was really intrigued by all the different flavors they make into pot pies, since I've only really tried the classic chicken pot pie. Unfortunately, they were pretty much out of most of the flavors but I ended up getting a ready to eat bavarian roast pork pot pie. The lady at the counter explained most are sold out right now due to timing of the farmers markers they sell at and the holidays. But you can always call in to check what flavors they have! The bavarian roast pork pot pie I got was 5" and was about $12 total. I believe they charge a small fee to heat up the pot pie for you, as you can buy frozen ones as well. The pot pie was nicely baked upon pulling it out of the bag (I ordered togo). The top was crispy and perfectly golden. After removing a part of the top, I was really surprised to find that the inside was loaded with toppings! Huge chunks of pork as well as carrots, peas, and potatoes. They really didn't skimp out even though the pot pie is only 5" and I'm super thrilled about that. I thought the pot pie had good flavor and the filling was cooked well. The only things I would say is it probably could have used more salt and the dough on the bottom and sides were a bit soggy. I think it's par for the course but I would have liked it a bit more crispy so that it could hold up to the filling better. The store has a seating area if you want to dine in and staff are super nice. They have a TV display showing what's available so you choose what you want. I'd definitely go back to try more unique flavors!

    classic American chicken pot pie

    Found this hidden gem on a drive one day going to work and I knew I had to make time to stop by. I was very excited to try the various pies given the range of flavors and options! I decided to go with the classic American chicken pot pie, because I figured you can't go wrong with a classic for a first try. And it definitely held up to my expectations! The crust was flakey, buttery, and so savory and the chucks of chicken were hearty and plentiful! Paired with the peas, carrots and melt in your mouth potatoes. It definitely hit the spot on a gloomy day! I ate it in the store so there's an additional $0.50 charge for that but they also have plenty of frozen pies as well! It's a cute little shop ran by some of the nicest staff and the sweetest owner who is often seen at the register. If you have the chance, make sure to stop by to find your favorite pie! It may be hard to locate because it's in a very industrial area and on the corner of a warehouse type building, but once you find it you'll be glad you did!

    The extensive, complete menu

    Came here for a quick lunch at the recommendation of a friend and was blown away! If you like pot pies, this is truly a pot pie paradise, one you won't soon forget. Tip: They are only open until 3 p.m. most days and popular items tend to sell out quickly so I would swing by earlier if there's a specific menu item you wanted to try. I wanted the lamb shepherd's pie and the lobster seafood pie, but they were both sold out so I settled for a traditional chicken pot pie with a side of soup. The menu items are of a decent size; I was full after both pie and soup (and I tend to have a heartier appetite than most). The service was friendly and relatively quick, and while I didn't opt to eat in, there are plenty of small tables for those who want a dine-in experience (probably not good for large groups though). Best of all, the menu is extensive with a list of pies galore - and so many interesting flavors and combinations to choose from (including Kobe beef, chicken masala, and much more). I'm definitely coming back again when I next have a craving for pot pie!

    I wanted to love this chicken pot pie more but it was dryer than my liking. Would love to go back and try other flavors such as their bulgogi!

    Thai chicken curry pot pie

    What a GEM! And a hidden one at that. Celebrated Thanksgiving a bit early with #ThankYouThursday and decided to check out pot pie paradise after seeing the great reviews on Yelp. I'm not normally a pot pie type of person, but with the cold weather, it was definitely the way to go. Pot Pie Paradise is nestled in an industrial part of Hayward so it's a bit of a drive through back roads to get there. They've got a decent parking lot and when I stopped by after lunch time, it wasn't too busy. They have a really helpful menu that shows all the options they have for pies, sandwiches, and other lunch choices. It's also updated to show which pies they're sold out of. I wanted to try the bulgogi beef but unfortunately they were sold out that day. Instead, I went for the Thai chicken curry. The Thai chicken curry pot pie ($10) had noodles, green beans, chicken, and carrots in it. It was delicious! I don't usually have noodles with thai chicken curry but it worked here. It's a pretty good portion for lunch and can maybe even be shared with two people. Though for me, I ended up just having the rest later for dinner. The service was great and the staff was very helpful. I loved reading the newspaper articles they have posted around the shop as I waited. They've got lots of seating inside if you prefer to dine in but I opted to take it to-go. Such a great local business! I'll definitely be back to try other pot pie options.

    Lamp Shepard's Pie, delicious, recommended
    Jay P.

    Yum, we came here for Pi Day and were surprised to find so much variety. I'm a big fan of savory and they had so many non-traditional savory pies we couldn't try them all even though we bought six! A sweet lady owns this and she'll make your day better just with her kind and humble attitude, her effort and hard work apparent in each pot pie you buy. They taste "homemade" in a very good way without all the preservatives and unknowns from store bought frozen pot pies. The mini Pies are $8 and the larger ones are $32. We bought these minis: -2 Classic American Chicken: Kids loved it, would repeat, taste much better than any frozen grocery store one. -Country Style Pot Roast: Wife loved this one, nice big pieces of beef with potatoes, carrots, green beans, and onions. -Lamb Shepherd Pie: I loved this one, lamb was excellent and the potatoes came out perfect with a nice char layer on top. -Creole Gumbo: Would have just liked the gumbo by itself, it had a lot of Okra but it needed to be washed and dried more to minimize the slime. -Pork Chile Verde: Surprisingly spicy, only I could eat this and it was too hot for the kids or wife. Note the heating instructions are for thawed pies, our seemed thawed but where still frozen and took longer to heat than the 25 minutes at 365 on the packaging.

    Delicious Lemon Caper - Chicken pie.
    Grazie E.

    For a long time I avoided this place after ordering a weak sandwich.. But obviously this place is known for their pies, so I finally gave-in to try a pice today because I wanted something comforting. Unfortunately their menu does not offer much of a description nor pictures of the food items... I wasn't enthused about ordering the Lemon Caper-Chicken but now I may order it again soon! It comes with rice, kale and zucchini! Idk the amount of calories but I am satisfied. I would be careful about any possible aluminum sticking to your pie on the sides of the crust... I noticed a speck on my pie and picked it off. Other than that, I plan to be back again. Menus should be more descriptive so the food items sell itself on display. Picture visuals help too!

Clams present with chunks of potatoes. This was decent 3.25/5 Service pleasant and no nonsense. I'd return for the soft-shelled crab burger and clam chowder and make small mods at home. 4 tables for dine-in but most orders were for take out. Private lot parking.

The vibe is awesome, they have a great bar area with a couple of TVs playing sports, and the music was definitely bumping. The staff was incredibly nice and super attentive to our table the entire night. Food-wise, this spot doesn't miss a beat. One of the best surprises was that they offer fresh crawfish, which is pretty rare to find at most seafood boil places. Everything we ordered was packed with flavor, and the garlic fries were amazingly good. Honestly, this boil spot isn't lacking a single thing. Whatever they are doing, they need to keep it up! This has easily jumped to the top of my list as one of my absolute favorite seafood boil spots.

My party arrived around 6:38 PM and added our name to the waitlist for dinner. While waiting, it became increasingly clear that more than half of the dining room had already finished their meals. Many tables appeared to be staying simply to watch the soccer match on the TVs. I completely understand wanting to enjoy the game, but at the same time there were 4-5 parties waiting for tables, with groups of various sizes. This raises an important question: at what point does management step in to balance hospitality with serving waiting guests? While no one should be rushed through their meal, when tables have clearly finished dining and a long wait is building, there should be some effort to manage table turnover during peak dinner hours. After waiting about 45 minutes with no indication that seating would happen anytime soon, we decided to leave and eat elsewhere. Ironically, we didn't receive the text that our table was ready until 8:07 PM--nearly an hour and a half after we first checked in. The food may be great, but based on this experience, the waitlist management left a lot to be desired. I hope Backyard Bayou reviews how they handle busy nights and finds a better balance between accommodating guests who want to linger and serving the many customers waiting to dine.

The Elite Council loves "conversion…read morestories"--when a reviewer admits they weren't a fan of a specific type of food until a particular restaurant completely changed their mind. That narrative builds massive trust with readers. For The Crabby Crab on Jarvis Ave in Newark, your discovery of their unique seafood boil mixed with Mexican fusion (like birria and tacos) is a fantastic insider tip for the community. Here is how we can polish your first-time experience into an Elite-style 5-star review: The Elite Upgrade Title Idea: Completely converted me to seafood boils! The Mexican fusion is incredible! I will easily give this place a full 5 stars. To be completely honest, I was never a big seafood boil person--until I ate here. This was my first time trying it, and OMG, the flavors completely blew me away. What makes this spot truly special is that it isn't just your standard boil; they do a fantastic Mexican fusion concept. Here is the breakdown of what makes it a must-visit: The Seafood Boil: The seasoning and sauces are absolutely spot-on. They pack an incredible depth of flavor that completely changed my perspective on seafood boils. The Mexican Fusion: Beyond the seafood, they serve up top-tier Mexican dishes. The birria is rich and flavorful, and the tacos are excellent. Having the option to mix classic boil flavors with great Mexican street food is a game-changer. Overall Impression: The food is phenomenal, the concept is unique, and the execution is perfect. I absolutely love this place now and can't wait to come back. Whether you are a lifelong seafood boil fan or a skeptic like I was, you need to check this place out!

From the moment we arrived, the hospitality felt a bit inconsistent. Our server wasn't very friendly, which made the experience feel a little off from the start. That said, the inside of the restaurant was really nice--clean, with a cool atmosphere and plenty of TVs. Unfortunately, the soda machine seemed like it needed maintenance, as the drinks came out flat or had a strange taste. As for the food, the garlic noodles were definitely a highlight--delicious and flavorful. However, the seafood boil was disappointing. It lacked seasoning, and everything seemed to be sitting in oil rather than a well-balanced sauce. For a group of 15 ordering crab, king crab legs, and shrimp, we expected much more flavor and quality for the price. Overall, we really wanted to love this place, but the experience didn't quite meet our expectations for such a special occasion.
