    Cheerful spot with colorful wall art and huge picture windows.

    Cheerful service, light and airy dining room. Next time you are at Kaiser Oakland and start feeling a bit peckish, excuse yourself and drive over to Richmond!

    Tenders, onion rings, water = $7

    Kind staff - comfort food and variety of salads...well stocked. Grateful. Grill cheese sandwiches when you or your family really need one.

This is a no frills (and no tip!) experience Nothing is going to really wow you here, but if you just want to go somewhere and get a good meal, this place will do work and be very budget friendly. At one point in the summer, my wife and I were coming here every week until we exhausted their menu selections. Hours are very narrow. Only lunch time on Wed-Sun (Closed Mon and Tue). It's an older couple (?) running the restaurant, with one person holding down the kitchen, and the other person rotating between the register and the back of the house. There's a sign that says they have milk tea and soy milk available, but we've never had milk tea there. They've only had hot soy milk. It comes unsweetened, so add your own sugar. We've tried so many things here, but I would say the overall sentiment is the dishes are decent but very comforting (at least for me). The one standout is their clay pot rice dishes. They get a pretty good crust on it. Overall, a really good value for lunch and I haven't found anything quite like Grand Cafe in the East Bay.

Finding it wasn't intuitive to me, but I assume the locals in the Marina area are familiar with the navigational challenges. I was planning to take a late afternoon walk around Marina Bay, so I decided to give this place a try for lunch since their menu was right up my alley. It consisted mostly of salads and sandwiches. They described themselves as 'artisan' because they use locally sourced ingredients to make some enticing creations like the fried buttermilk chicken sandwich and the artisan chopped salad. I went for the basic $15.25 BLAT (Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato & Avocado) Sandwich served on toasted brioche bread slathered in chipotle mayo (Photo 7). It worked for me as I sat in their large dining area. I'd likely return now that I know how to get here. FOOD - 4 stars...solid sammie with fresh ingredients though the brioche was a bit overtoasted AMBIANCE - 4 stars...spacious when I was here SERVICE - 3.5 stars...cordial TOTAL - 4 stars...plenty of salads and sammies to try for lunch...worth noting they're open for dinner on Fridays RELATED - Exploring Richmond?

The hours are 11-1 on Tuesday through Thursday and only during the regular school semesters. It's fine dining at about 1/3 the price.

    A friend suggested this restaurant as a way to experience fine-dining options at an affordable…read moreprice and as a foodie on a budget, I had to oblige. Located at the heart of Contra Costa College campus, a community college in San Pablo, this establishment allows culinary students to practice their skills through an assortment of appetizers, entrees, desserts, and beverages. It also allows them to get serving experience in an upscale environment. Because everyone is still learning, the menu prices reflect that. Note that per their current policies, the restaurant is currently only open for dining Tuesday-Thursday and the menu rotates season to season. We parked in the community lot, which charges $4 per car. The restaurant is a short walk away. Upon entering, we were greeted by a lovely display of all their current desserts by the door. I saw "Asian-inspired cake" and knew I had to try it. Because the prices were so alluring, especially for our hungry stomachs, we each opted to order a bread bowl, appetizer, drink, entree, and dessert to try. This is definitely a lot of food, so it might be better to not over order unless you're in a big group! But you know, life is short so no regrets. Drinks - I ordered a blueberry nojito, which is one of their bestsellers. It was divine - the blueberry mint flavor was mixed with some kind of sparking beverage and looked as good as it tasted. The lavender lemonade was just OK (I don't enjoy floral flavors as much as the avg person). Bread bowl came with 6 small breads that were fluffy and soft. They can fill you up so be aware! Appetizers - Corn croquettes and a Mediterranean-style salad. Both delicious - I loved the corn cakes in particular! Cooked perfectly with just the right amount of flavor. The salad was really refreshing - I wish there were more of it. Can't go wrong with cucumber, onion, and tomato. Entrees - I got the spaghetti with mussels and my friend got the salmon cakes. Both tasted great, though my spaghetti was a tad salty (I like my food a little saltier so it wasn't a problem). Not remarkable but the portions are generous. Desserts - This was probably the biggest disappointment as the Asian-style cake didn't feature the light spongy cake that I'm used to. They nailed the frosting, but the fruit could have been cut better. I liked the Oreo cake a lot more (better taste and presentation), though if I were to come back I would probably order a dessert other than cake. Service - Everyone was friendly, and though there was a mix-up between the entree and desserts (they took longer to cook the entrees and thus brought our desserts out first), it wasn't a big deal and as mentioned earlier, everyone's still learning. Overall, for the price and quality, I enjoyed dining here and would definitely come back even though it's a ways from where I live. Love the idea of supporting chefs in the making and sharing their culinary treats with the community for an affordable price. The campus was also really nice and scenic - maybe next time I'll opt to dine outside! Note that there is a service charge for using a credit card so cash is best!
