    Cool, nutrition info
    Steve D.

    Chester's Fried Chicken (CFC) is good, low priced fried chicken sold at a gas station in East Oakland. It's not as salty as KKC, and not as pricey as KFC. Today I ordered an 8-pc Chicken only and Potato Wedges. The chicken is ok. It doesn't have alot of flavoring or seasoning. But my chicken was moist and hot. The chicken isn't crispy or crunchy. The potato wedges were fresh and crisp. Nutritional info and ingredients shown on box. Ketchup, hot sauce, and napkins included.

    All of the sides and some of the chicken sits under heat lamps.

    The chicken was just average and the macaroni and cheese was horrible I would never recommend this restaurant to anyone.

    one of my go to spots in alameda for the almond breading.. chicken tenders were ginormous the last…read moretime i came

    I have been here twice and it's been pretty run of the mill. I would say the chicken they use for…read morethe sandwiches...and probably the strips....and probably the salad, is actually really good. It was hot and thick and juicy when it came out. The fries were decent, but likely just some standard frozen fries. The ranch was also really good, but $.50 each small sized cup. My biggest gripe was the service and the state of the restaurant. In the booth we sat in there was an electrical outlet is hanging out of the wall and the booths are in need of cleaning. We had to use the bathroom, and the soap was out. The staff member brought a new one, but didn't know how to install it so it just sat on top of paper towels. Not a huge deal but bruh, figure it out. The guy was nice enough, but just sat and watched his phone when no one was at counter. There was also another guy, maybe from the kitchen (?) hanging out behind the counter sometimes as well. All while tables needed wiping, the bus tub was FULL with dishes, or either of them could have tried to get the soap installed. If there was no one at counter or food to cook it was stand around and stare at our phones. It's just sad Just a subpar experience for as much as food costs these days. Train the staff to stay busy and know how to bus tables and clean. And if you ever order the BLT chicken sandwich make sure to ask for no BBQ sauce. Yuk.

    Came here on a Sunday night. Loved the fact that they don't close too early…read more We ordered the Pad Thai with beef, Garlic Noodles with duck, and Thai tea. The Pad Thai was good overall. It had a nice sweet and savory flavor. The tamarind sauce was not too sweet and the noodles were cooked nicely. The vegetables had a nice crunchy texture. The dish came with tofu which was firm and nicely seasoned. The beef was a bit chewy, but still enjoyable. Great to have the lime wedge to neutralize the flavors. The Garlic Noodles were very good. Loved the chew of the noodles. The garlic sauce was very tasty. The vegetables were cooked wonderfully and had a nice crunchy texture. The duck was delicious. The garlic sauce paired well with the duck meat. Loved that the duck skin added to the umami flavor. It was a very enjoyable dish. The Thai tea was sweet and quite refreshing. Great start to our meal and great way to wash down our dinner. Service was excellent. Our server was very friendly and helpful during our dining experience. She made sure we had a pleasant visit. Our food was served on time with little wait. Ambiance was nice. Loved the decor of the place. Nice to see the outline of Thailand on the wall of the restaurant. The place was well maintained and clean. Nice and quiet setting with some other patrons. Very enjoyable experience here. Would love to visit again and try other dishes. Thank you very much.

    This is my new favorite restaurant on the Island! I kept telling my friends that it wasn't Thai…read morecuz it tastes different than the usual Thai places that are all over Alameda. But the owner confirmed it was "authentic" Thai food lol. Their Hainan chicken and rice is next level! Savory with a hint of ginger. I could and sometimes do eat it every day. When I'm feeling naughty I order the chicken and crispy pork belly combo! If I had to pick one thing to eat on Park St that would be it! The beef salad is my other fave. It's citrus and spicy and has a good portion of yummy steak with light greens. Hella bomb! Mango sticky rice is so good! I don't really like mango but they recommended it and I was not disappointed. Service is super helpful and friendly. If you like Thai but want to try more authentic dishes then the standard Pad Thai, try something off the beaten path. You won't be disappointed!

We ordered the Korean-flavored wings and pork fried rice. The wings were generously coated in sauce and packed with flavor, while the fried rice had plenty of pork, egg, and green onion throughout. Everything tasted good and the portions were satisfying. Service was okay--nothing bad, but nothing particularly memorable either. The biggest challenge was finding parking, so give yourself a little extra time. Overall, the food made it a solid stop, and I would return to try more of the menu.

    The garlic noodles with shrimp are great. Aside from the fact it's reasonably priced, especially…read moreconsidering where the establishment stands, the sauce they use for the dish is very flavorful. Even better, the vanilla ice cream they serve from the case in front was arguably one of the best I've ever had. What became most salient to me from my dining experiences with this place was the service. The people behind the counter are consistently courteous, and willing to make clarifications about the food when needed. There was, at one point in recent memory, a woman working here who was absolutely the sweetest. Her warm, gentle demeanor made the place seem all the more inviting. Personally, if the food were to ever become a reason to cease my patronage (which I doubt it will), I would still come here, for the sole purpose of keeping such good staff in their jobs

Downside is that I felt like everything was too salty so I did struggle finishing my bowl. I'd hope they tone down the saltiness in the near future!

    I was so bummed to find out my favorite fast casual spot in downtown Alameda has closed its doors…read morefor good! I was in the area looking to grab a bite before heading to Southie to catch the Hawks manhandle the Niners. As usual, the restaurant that I always look to forward to visiting is Hummus Republic. Once I found some parking around the corner, I was happily skipping down the block towards the entrance, until... The place was dark, and no one was inside. I had to do a double take to make sure it wasn't one of the scheduled closed days. Sure enough, it was not. There was also no signage on the window or any mention of a vacation or emergency. It was just... closed. As I looked inside, I noticed some furniture and decor had already been removed, so I knew it was beyond the point of no return. In any event, it is indeed a dark time for me, as I frequented Hummus Republic quite often. Yes, I know it is a chain, but the nearest one that I know of now is all the way in Livermore near the outlets. Honestly, it's not completely a shock though, as this particular location was often empty, and I also heard that rent is quite high. There are also alternative Mediterranean shops in the vicinity, such as Tahina and Q's, but none of them combine the level of freshness, convenience and overall value as Hummus Republic. Although it's a lazy comparison used a zillion times before, just think of Hummus Republic as the Chipotle of Mediterranean fare. Depending on who you get serving you, portions can range from large to absolutely gargantuan. It's no exaggeration when I say that a single bowl serving is pretty much enough for both lunch and dinner. Coming from a pig like yours truly, that is saying a lot! Sadly, this exact address also seems to have a high turnover rate, as I have seen a myriad of various businesses sprout up there in recent years. Hopefully the next tenant will provide something to fill the inevitable void. RIP Hummus Republic! You will be sorely missed! The only thing that improved my mood after witnessing this sad news was watching the Hawks absolutely mollywhop the Niners. :‑D
