A family of four is going to spend $100 in here. Is it because of Oakland's onerous anti-business climate? No, this is in Emeryville. Is it their high labor costs? No, there are only 5 people (lol of course) working on Saturday. High quality ingredients? In n out uses similar quality stuff and their prices are still reasonable. The food is good but not that great. They don't even melt the cheese, and then don't care if you order for here. They thrust a bag at you: here's your food, sucker, now get out. It's greed, pure and simple. Greed will kill our civilization. Go somewhere else.

My wife and I tried A+ Burger last Friday for dinner. I'd read good reviews, so we gave it a try…read more Wife decided on the fish burger and I went straight for the A+ burger! The fish burger was crispy yet juicy and savory. The bun was soft, but not bready. Not a fillet-o-fish sandwich, but it stood on its own and the portion was enormous! What can I add about the A+ burger that has not already been said? It's the complete burger...and the fried eggplant is its secret weapon! Thankfully I was hungry when I ordered it because by the time I took my last bite, I was extremely full, yet satisfied! And I MUST add that the service here is exemplary! Courteous does not begin to explain how nice the order taking experience was for me as a customer. It was nice, accommodating, and genuine. I love this level of service. Washed down a side a French fried bean with a cold Coke. What a meal!

Quick service. I didn't eat outside but there's a few tables there. Nonetheless, I ate my food and it was good. The garlic fries weren't oily or soggy. The burger was massive, though I would suggest not playing the piece of lettuce on the bottom. The shake was good too. I'll be back soon to try out other menu items.

The box even had a personal hand written thank you from the business. That made me feel like the owner truly appreciates his customers and puts an effort into his meals. It shows. No complaints food was delish. The chicken was tasty not super dry and all the veggies were crunchy and fresh. This is for sure one of my go to places from now on. In addition, it's not extremely overpriced for the portion you get. Doesn't break the bank and I feel better knowing I had a pretty damn healthy meal. Thank you Ben!

Morning arrives gently at the Emeryville McDonald's, not with drama but with permission. There is…read moreno line, no anxious choreography of cars jockeying for position, no sense that one has arrived late to one's own life. The parking lot is clean in a way that feels intentional, as if someone cared enough to reset the space overnight. The sun reflects off the windows without accusation. You pull in and feel, briefly, that things might be in order. Inside, the employees smile, and not the trained, defensive smile of obligation, but the open kind that risks sincerity. Juanita greets me as though my arrival matters, asks how my morning is going so far, and waits for the answer. This alone feels almost excessive. Her delight is unguarded, and in it there is a quiet suggestion that work does not have to erase the person doing it. Conversation flows easily, a few seconds of shared presence that asks for nothing more than attention. The space itself hums with brightness. Not sterile, not overproduced, but clean and awake. Tables wiped, floors swept, the air carrying the faint promise of coffee and something savory. It feels like a place prepared for people, not merely for transactions. In a small way, this matters. Then there is the steak egg and cheese bagel sandwich, which deserves more reverence than it usually receives. It arrives warm, substantial, almost improbably generous. The bagel is soft but grounded, the steak rich without being aggressive, the egg folded neatly like a quiet affirmation. Melted cheese binds everything together with a patience that feels practiced. Eating it is not hurried. It invites attention. It rewards it. There is something quietly Eucharistic about the act, though no one announces it as such. Ordinary food, taken seriously, becomes more than fuel. It becomes a moment of gratitude disguised as breakfast. You sit, you eat, you are sustained. Nothing mystical is forced upon you, yet something is given. The sandwich does not transcend its ingredients, but it gathers them into something whole. This McDonald's does not pretend to be salvation. It offers something smaller and more attainable: a morning that works. A place where light fills the room, where people speak kindly, where food tastes like care rather than compromise. You leave unburdened, not because your problems have vanished, but because for a short while the world did not resist you. Driving away, the day feels possible. Not perfect. Possible. And sometimes that is more than enough.

We also had the IPA which (1) was surprisingly light considering the 9% ABV and (2) complemented the meal well. The service was great! And all the staff we came across was super friendly.
