Once again I'm putting a bunch of restaurant reviews up:
C'era una Volta has pleasant, friendly service, but an unexciting brunch in Alameda.
In San Leandro:
El Torito offers mediocre chain restaurant food and a less than spectacular views at its Marina location.
Tito's offers competent Tex-Mex food in an interesting atmosphere.
Taqueria is the fourth taqueria to open within walking distance of my house (and the sixth Mexican restaurant!). We didn't need it and it doesn't do a particularly good job at it - but as it's always empty, it's a good place to go with the kids.
And after many visits during this world cup, I updated my review of The Englander
and in San Francisco:
The Garden Court at the Palace Hotel has the most beautiful and impressive room in town and a delicious tea service - too bad that the service is rushed and dedicated to getting you out of there fast.
BTW, I've now made a special page for all the tea rooms I review: http://www.marga.org/food/rest/tea.html
