exact one I went to bro. my older bro got me onto looking at Yelp where ever I'm at for a place to eat. I've done it several times and all successes. I was in Oakland for my brothers concert one time. after that, was hungry Yelped and with like over 500 good reviews we went to a place called Shan Dong Mandarin Restaurant in the center of Oaklands chinatown for some chinese. highly recommend that one as well
Pacific Catch was a successful Yelp
also Slow Hand BBQ in Pleasant Hill was my latest yelp few weeks back. good brisket, pulled pork, mac n cheese and like 50 beer choices

I've been meaning to eat at Ike's back when they had one store, glad they are expanding throughout the Bay. Didn't know they open one in Cupertino and Santa Clara. Will be trying it out soon.

In sac:
Im always on a mission to find the best burrito. Nothing has beat Taqueria Rincon Alteno (imo) in Natomas, right by Sleep Train. A close second is Gordido Burrito on Sac State campus.
Local burger place I love is Burgess Brothers Burgers on Sutterville in Sac by the city college. Kinda pricey, but goooood.
And of course Luigi's pizza on Stockton Blvd.

Al pastor is where it's at for me when it comes to burritos. All the other meats can kick rocks. That said Taqueria Guadalajara in SF so far has the best Al pastor to me. Still need to go to La Corneta and Papalote.

Bills is good. I usually get the Tri-Tip steak and eggs. I do prefer Flames steak over bills though.

A lot of people swear by Bill's, but every time I go, I end up disappointed. Food is bland.
There's a place off Saratoga called Bill of Fare. Really good. Keep it on the low though, place already gets bonkers sometimes.
