Awesome Italian food... Hard place to describe other than overwhelming.
Lots of hot chicks working there.

The drive up there is awesome, twistys through the redwoods.
After dinner go across the street to Henflings for good live music.

Burgers, Cheese Steaks, Pizza, Beer, Its a nice "Dive"
Yes, there are usually girls there
The cost ranges, its not that expensive

2) Vitos Cafe
Stevenson Ave, Newark (right off 880)
Mostly Italian food
Some of the servers are cute!
The cost can range, but again not that expensive

De Ming's Asian Cuisine
105 Town And Country Dr
Danville, CA 94526
(925) 820-8887
$10-15 average

I can't stand bad chinese food (or any bad food for that matter, being a former restaurant owner!), so I only go to great Chinese restaurants.

This place makes the best Honey-walnut prawns, and their dishes are very unique.

WARNING: Service sucks here! Only the Maitress Di and the tall male server are cool, the ***** server with the glasses is a damn jail warden!

They suck major ***. So we as in my family decides to open a restaurant, similar to Le Chevals but way classier called CAm Ranh Bay which is now sold due to a kitchen fire, but the wannabe fake thugs of the owner's family come around my family and start f-ing with, us telling us our restaurant will ruin them and take away their customers....oh wait isn't our restaurant in Downtown SAn Mateo and yours by the Federal building in Oakland? Yeah it is! what fools. Plus their food is only ok, seriously, not biased (bcs I don't have a restaurant anymore)

My favourite food is sashimi & japanese food. I've been to many great Japanese restaurants, and this place has the best sushi & sashimi for the value.

Mr. Kim the sushimaster is a badass.

It is owned and operated by Koreans, and they also have a full Korean menu.
