Authentic Burmese food (I've been to Burma... it really is!) Try the tea leaf salad; like nothing you've ever had. Also don't miss the samusa soup or the rainbow salad.

Soul food from the south, all vegan and all amazing. My carnivore friends are happy to go there. Low key local atmosphere, not touristy.

Cool old waterfront bar with aged slanting bar inside, nice outside area. Name refers to the first and last bar sailors hit between voyages. Also known as "Jack London's Rendezvous" and was the inspiration for scenes from the Oakland writer's "Call of the Wild" among others.
