We used to call the one in Emeryville "Ho Burgers" because even during the day, the working girls would hang out in front...













BTW... that's not mayo on that burger...

Ugh time and time again I've been sorely disappointed with the service at the sushi house.. whether it's take-out or sit-down, doesn't matter. Maybe I've been blacklisted or something lol. There are three other sushi places in Alameda that are much much better:

Kai's on Park St.

Kamakura on Santa Clara Ave.

And that new spot that replaced the Sapporo Sushi Boat place on Webster St.

I totally agree on sushi house, ever since they moved to the new location, it hasn't been the same. I go to a place in morgan hill "Ichiban Sushi" it's my new favorite.

I'd also like to add Steve's Cheesesteaks in santa clara. It rivals cheesesteak shop and i liked it better than amato's.

The taqueria down Industrial from you guys. GOOD EATS. I forgot what the hell it's called. It used to be a taco truck location until they just straight up built a restaurant there. Also, you can try out the new chicken wings spot next door to Circuit City called "Wings". I went there once to meet up with a buddy and I stumbled upon a Scion meet. I passed it a bunch of times thinking it was a shoe store or something. In that same center, there's a Hawaiian plate lunch place next to the Starbucks. There's also Straw Hat Pizza right on the corner when you turn into the street to Gruppe S from Industrial. It's one of the better chain pizza joints I've eaten at, well, at least this location. Then there's some hoagies/cheesesteak place in the center where the Burger King is on Industrial and Mission. I had friends who I hang out with around that area, so I was aware of a few places. LOL.

Speaking of that area, anyone tried Country Waffle or whatever the heck that is in the area where Target is?

This is my favorite thread on I-Club. I'm such a foodie. Haha.

la luna isn't too bad, although my friends and i don't usually wind up that far down in the mission. limon is also a nice place, and i think it's because the bombay ice cream place is right next door -- MMMM i always have a hard time picking out just one flavor between cardamom rose, masala tea, saffron rose, etc. etc.

the last supper club is also great too. there are so many other good eats in the mission, but i always get a craving for ice cream when i head out there lol
