Brian Strauss: One of the elite pizza places in Oakland. Not better than Zachary's, but with a very nice full bar and just as kid friendly, it may edge out Zachary's in terms of the overall experience.
Ellen McGrody: Amazing pizza place! Lovely, crumbly crust, wonderful atmosphere, and great service!
Cameron Wilson: Four of us shared a large meatball appetizer and a large Telegraph deep dish pizza. Amazing value, absolutely delicious.
Kay D: Dog-friendly. Came for just a coffee and got great service do will be back for the recommended meatball sub!
John W: Great deli menu & shop. Beer garden space out back with music, dogs, fussball & pool table, and a smoker!

E Wee: Yes, ask the owner for custard--he usually only has it on hot days, but we scored on a foggy Friday, and got caramel (to die for!) and vanilla custards...
zippy: The Philly water ice and Philly gelato aka "mummers mix" - soft serve plus a fruit italian ice is the best

Benjy Weinberger: Great shakes, excellent burgers, solid fries.
Frank Kim: Excellent luxe burger with a fried portabello mushroom, got onions on it too, the garlic fries were good. I got the vanilla milkshake with orange cream add-in, was awesome.
Bommy: Mushroom burger is a slimy mess. Fries and peanut butter malt milkshake are decent.
