They use cornmeal for the crust and it tastes freshly made! It's fluffy and crunchy at the same time. Reminds me of sourdough. They offer a variety of the single slices. I tried the veggie spinach with artichoke. This place is worth visiting. Next time I'll try something new because the pizza was this good I trust other items will be as well.

I used Havana Catering for the first time for my baby shower this past weekend and had a really…read moregreat experience. I had heard of them before because a friend used them for their wedding, and since I plan events for a living, I've worked with a lot of caterers. For my own event though, price mattered a lot, but I still wanted really good food. After reaching out to a bunch of places, I went with Havana because I had tried their food before and their pricing was very reasonable. We ordered full trays of adobo chicken, lechon roasted pork, crispy tofu, paella, sofrito rice, black beans, corn, poblano mac and cheese, and plantains. I did bring in one dish from another restaurant, Jamaican oxtail, just because I know my guests are big foodies. The biggest hits from Havana were definitely the poblano mac and cheese, lechon, and the paella. Honestly, the mac and cheese was the standout. Everyone kept going back for it and I wish I had ordered an extra tray. What really stood out to me though was the delivery experience. The driver called me ahead of time, brought everything in, and set it all up. He opened the trays with gloves, added sauces, arranged everything nicely, and even put out utensils and labels. I've had plenty of catering deliveries before and this was easily one of the best. He was just genuinely kind and went above and beyond, and it made a big difference. Overall, everything went smoothly, the food was great, and I would definitely order from them again.

I honestly wasn't expecting much, but the reviews seemed somewhat promising. I ordered through…read moretheir online website and it was very straightforward. You actually pay for your order when you get to the store, which I would be worried for them if people place orders and don't show up. I ended up ordering Basil Eggplant with Chicken and Prawns, as well as Deluxe Chow Fun. The bag was fairly compact when I picked it up - two plastic containers of the dishes. When I opened up the container, they were overfilling! I'd say very generous portions for the price. -Basil Eggplant with Chicken and Prawns: I don't feel like this is a really traditional Chinese dish, maybe a bit more Thai, but it was delicious! I also wasn't expecting the sauce to be as red as it was. This dish had a lot of basil which I liked, and a lot of flavor. There was a good amount of protein. -Deluxe Chow Fun: Pretty good, the noodles were soft and bouncy, good amount of flavor, and also lots of protein. Service during pickup was friendly. When I was there, it seemed like the restaurant is popular, with both diners and people coming in to pickup their to-go orders. This is a very solid place for Chinese food!

Bf ordered the lemongrass thai fried rice, he liked it said it was balanced not too powerful, light but flavorful. I was a bit confused trying to figure out what kind of fried rice it was bc not traditional thai fried rice. Had some yellow curry and raisins and cashews and beef. It wasnt bad. I ordered the pad thai chicken. It was okay, not the best but okay, something in the flavor was a little off but not too much. Overall this is a small city Martinez so understandable. Prices were cheaper than south bay.

Sadly they were out of tater tots today - we love their tater tots so we were sad about that but their fries were good. The owner was going around checking on things and thanking all the tables, which was nice. We've been here often and never met her before.

Vic's has been on my "To-try" list for a long time. Ever since they opened several years ago, I…read morehave heard nothing but praises from different people, including my friend and fellow Elite David A. For his birthday this year, our friend Sarah and I decided to treat him to dinner here on 07/03/2024. Sarah and I arrived simultaneously at 5:30pm. Since the temperature was 105F, we had zero interest in sitting outside. Upon entering, we were immediately greeted by the staff, and they seated us at a table near the entrance. The interior was cozy, and the vibe was a mix of coffee shop, old school tavern, and neighborhood bistro. Not sure if that's what they were going for, but it definitely worked. Once David arrived, our server came by to take our drink and appetizer order. For appetizer, we shared an order of Four Cheese Garlic Bread. If you like bread and cheese, make sure you get this. Half a dozen slices of perfectly toasted buttered ciabatta bread topped with several types of melted cheese. Very delicious. For entrée, I had the Chicken Parm Pasta, while Sarah and David had the Chopped Cobb and Pollo Provencal respectively. My dish was a good size piece of double battered chicken breast served on top of a bed of garlic pasta and spinach, topped with marinara sauce and melted cheeses. What I liked the most was when you take away the sauce, cheeses, and breading, I could really taste the chicken. I tried a piece of the Pollo Provencal and it was excellent as well. Service we received was exceptional. The staff were welcoming, friendly, and attentive. Our server checked on us several times during the meal and she took care of our requests with great efficiency. Based on this experience, their high rating is well justified in my opinion. The food, service, and atmosphere are top-notch for a small neighborhood restaurant. I know Martinez is a bit far for some, but it's definitely worth a visit when and if you are in the area. 5 stars. BONUS MATERIAL: - Small private parking lot on site. - Split check option available.

It's a smallish place, seats less than 40 I think, unless there a hidden room I didn't see. The decor feels like you stepped back to the late 80s. The food was excellent, I was not expecting it. We ordered soup and a couple of different dim sum from their menu. I was kinda expecting some microwaved stuff. To my surprised, it was freshly steamed. Food was great and I learned the owner was a chef in a dim sum restaurant in the south bay before and makes it all himself. I can't rate any of the other things on the menu, haven't tried it. But it does look like your classic American Chinese foods (sweet & sour, broccoli beef, fried rice, fried noodles). They are very nice and we will be back to try some other stuff.

Hmm.. unfortunately the food is no longer what it used to be…read more We tried the daily express lunch special expecting it to be cooked fresh to order, but it was clearly pre-cooked and simply reheated (or sat under a hot lamp) when served. The food arrived lukewarm and lacked freshness (I could've just went to a fast food joint), which was very disappointing. Overall, the quality has noticeably declined, and we will not be returning.
