The pork was very tender with a nice flavor, not a barbecue sauce style, but top-notch. The fries were nice and crispy, may be a little underseasoned, but I managed to eat them all. Plenty of outdoor seating that is shared with the adjacent taphouse.

The beers are really really good. We had the Chocolate Moustache and Cherry Sour 9/10. The food was…read morea disaster. Fries are middle school cafeteria esque with nasty cold oil aftertaste and no seasoning. The pork banh Mi is dominated by some odd bottom of the barrel dregs oil. We also didn't even order that we ordered the pulled pork sandwich. The meatball sandwich has potential but the bread used is not a great option it's too soggy. 1/10. We would give them a second chance due to the booze, they were also super busy due to the World Cup.

A Staple in Our Office!…read more Today, we had an impromptu all-hands meeting, and I needed to put in a rush order for 15 sandwiches at 10 AM. The team at Sandwich Board went above and beyond, having everything ready 15 minutes early, even during their busy lunch rush! As if that wasn't enough, they generously included potato salad and mac salad on the house! The sandwiches were not only delicious but also loved by everyone, including our team members from out of town. A huge thank you to Sandwich Board for their amazing service and mouthwatering food. They truly deserve 5 stars all around!

I've lived in alameda my whole life and these two ladies have been sweet and kind the few times…read moreI've gone here. My recent experience was nothing but unpleasant for my father. We come and my dad is trying to communicate what he wanted on his sandwich, and everyone is particular about everything so before you quick jump to "it's just a sandwich" we pay for good service and we tip good and i'm writing this in hopes this doesn't happen to anyone else in the board. My dad wanted everything on his sandwich as well as lite mustard and etc and the lady who makes the sandwiches wasn't listening and kept trying to say she got it and she's working on it. I've worked in food service for years and it is important to hear what a customer is asking for because after all, it's their food. We got home, no tomatoes, sandwich was missing stuff, my boyfriend's sandwich was missing stuff. It was disappointing. My father was very upset. I think they could be more friendly as well as being more adapting to certain people who are just communicating a specific need or want in their purchase. We will be calling later in hopes to remove or change this review. Thank you.

Alameda has such great burger places. Try the blueberry burger. It will surprise you…read more They have fries covered in gravy or sauce, just so decadent and amazing. Like a few indoor stools to sit on, but plenty of seating in the park let outside. Solid burger for sure.

I ordered a full Texas Queso fries like I've done every time I've gone to Lucky 13 next door. Great…read moredish, highly recommend! After tax AND TIP I paid $21. Which is fine with me, but then I asked for a side of jalapeños and they wanted to charge me $1.11 for a small ketchup cup size container. Like, max there are 5-6 jalapeños in there. Really? $21 and I can't get some jalapeños for my fries? Next time I'll skip the TIP and get my jalapeños. Crazy.

They're very generous with their meat portions too. Their pizza is amazing!! Reminds me of when our older Italian neighbor would make me pizza as a kid. The owners are always very warm and welcoming and they also sell a small selection of Italian grocery products too. It's more of a grab and go spot as there's only one small table outside with two chairs-there is a dog leash hitch though that's handy! Great place to stop by for your sandwich or Italian fix!

Had the chicken parmesan on garlic pretzel bread -- and it was absolutely elite. Hearty, rich, and…read moreabsolutely delicious. The flavors and seasoning were spot on for all the components. Great texture. Yet despite the heartiness, you can really taste the quality of the ingredients (they source their ingredients from Italy). I've enjoyed talking to the wife (co-owner with her husband). She's really friendly and passionate about the food she serves. She told me her husband is from Italy, and you can really feel the pride in the food. Pro tips: It's best to call in early to order ahead! You can pay at pickup. Why? Because they often sell out early! Once the bread runs out, you're out of luck (and there will be a sign on the front door saying so). There can also be a very long wait time if there are a lot of orders. Lastly, check their IG everyday for the sandwich they're promoting that day based on their available ingredients! Seriously can't wait to return and try the meatball sandwich.

Excellent food - a definite must try! We were in the area and my daughter highly recommended this…read moreplace. I ordered the Charred Lemon Garlic Fried Chicken Sandwich. It includes a Fried Chicken Thigh, Charred Lemon Pepper Sauce, House Pickles, Pear Slaw & Black Garlic Sauce on soft Brioche bun - very flavorful sandwich. I savored every bite! 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. So note, if you're 220 lbs or so, or if you have a bigger appetite, you might want to order a second sandwich or get the Fowl Fry Combo instead. Sandwiches run about $17 - totally worth it though. Savor every bite, and you won't be sorry!

A great chicken sandwich awaits you at Fowl + Fare in Alameda!…read more I finally had a chance to try this place! 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.

Banh mi is a little pricey but it was very good. What attracted me here was the smoothies. At home…read moremy mom would make similar smoothies using parsley and mint, so I was drawn to that homey aspect. I don't like my smoothies sweet and prefer them grassy or even sour/ bitter. I spoke in Vietnamese to the ladies and workers and they were very sweet; she let me know which smoothie was sweet and which was bitter when I picked it up. The banh mi here is probably one of the best in Alameda. I'm a little sad that I hadn't tried it sooner, as I am let down by most of the banh mi shops in the area. Great place to try and visit. Seating is limited here. Pickup and eat elsewhere is mostly advised.

This place is hella good! There's a reason why my Vietnamese recommended this spot to me, he claims…read moreits the closest to Saigon banh mi you can find in the bay. We came here on a Saturday late afternoon and there were a handful of folks here ordering/dining in. It's a small spot with limited seating, so its mostly for takeout imo. We got 2 banh mi: one cold cut combo and another for lemongrass chicken. We also got a smoothie to go. The banh mi's are legit, I would order extra pate next time. Love how the banh mi are super thick with tons of meat, veggies, and good amount of pate. The bread is fresh and the portions are generous. Would love to come back here again and try more items and include extra pate per my friend's suggestion. There are only street parking available here. We had no issues finding one close to the spot on a Saturday afternoon.

Cholita linda is one of my favorite places to get delicious fish tacos Baja style. Everytime I…read morefinish my tacos, I instantly start regretting not ordering more. Their fish tacos are perfectly battered, crispy, covered in a bed of cabbage cilantro, crema, & their salsa. a slice of lime to add a lil Zest & wow, I could eat 5 of them after a good workout day. We usually order rice & beans, yucca frita, and occasionally an agua fresca. This time we ordered a strawberry & lemonade, super yum & perfect amount of tart & sweet. The yucca frita was crispy with savory sauce to pair with it. The rice and beans are simple but also so consistently deliciously cooked. The white rice is the best restaurant rice I ever had, I wish I could make it like This at home lolol. Overall, the food here has always been delicious. We order here frequently for the last few years and will continue to do so. Service is always positive, seamless and straightforward. The alameda location has seating inside, perfect for small groups or solo dining too. Overall great vibe, love this place!

As I walked into maybe get a little snack, they had fresh juice that was in their machines, looping around! I love the vibrant colors and feel of this restaurant, and the music matched it perfectly!! I forget what this drink was actually called, but it was something mixed with passionfruit, and it quench my thirst perfectly!! There were a number of items on the menu that looked delicious, but honestly with the drink I was satisfied!! I will definitely be back to try a taco or some sort of appetizer! And I will definitely get the drink again!! Hee
