I highly recommend getting their golden burrito, it's super flavorful and you'll enjoy every bite! The spot is cute too, definitely a nice place to go to with friends if you're fine with outdoor seating. They also have some indoor seating as well but you get a nice view of the sunset from outside.

San Francisco has lots of places to grab a sandwich. It's seems I ate at the majority of delis in…read moreSF. Sometimes it's good to try something different and a place with some interesting character and characters. I usually get deli sandwiches which have deli meats but this place has fried chicken sandwiches . So I was craving a sandwich so I headed to Crave Subs in Downtown Berkeley next to BART station. They have lots of sandwiches available on the menu. On a Summer stroll getting some sun in Downtown Berkeley I landed at Crave Subs. Inside it's like you stepped into an ice cream parlor with a comic book shop and arcade and a deli all at the same time. You will see sandwiches on the menu called the Pikachu, Ned Flanders, and Bart Simpson. You will see Chewbacca fries along with the Spider-Man fries and the vegan Sailormoon fries. I got the Captain Boom Halal Fried Chicken, Boom Boom Sauce, Cheddar Cheese and Crave Sauce on a roll. It was tasty and a bit crunchy and had lots of flavor. It's one of the best Halal chicken sandwiches I had. If you crave a fried chicken sandwich then Crave Subs is the spot. It will "cost "you an extra 50 cents if you want to "floss" with extra drip "sauce" to show off on social media and during OSL my social media feed was stuck in the" Land of OZ" If you want great fried chicken sandwich you don't need to visit KFC or meet the chicken"commanders" like the late "Colonel Sanders" just get a Captain Boom with "Halal chicken standards" or grab a Pikachu sandwich or a turkey sandwich called the "Ned Flanders "

I don't really enjoy writing negative reviews of restaurants, especially smaller businesses but…read moretoday's visit to Crave really left a bad taste in my mouth. One of my biggest pet peeves is when restaurants reduce the guality or quantity of their meal to cut costs while charging premium prices. I will say I didn't mind paying a few dollars more for their subs in the past. I went there today for the first time in a couple of years, ordered a regular size basic ruben sandwich (no add-ons) and was ok paying nearly $18 dollars for just the sandwich until they handed it to me. what I got was a small 6" sub. When did their subs shrink?? in this economy we are all struggling. I get it, things cost more but Craves' owner is not doing his patrons a service by charging them premiums while cutting back on the meals. If you're ok paying that much for a shrunken sub, more power to you. I l, however, will not be going back there.

I had an overall good experience during my recent takeout visit. We ordered the beet salad, lamb…read morewrap, salmon kabob plate, and falafel plate. The staff was friendly, and the food itself was okay. I'd give it a three out of five The only concerning part was the tabbouleh that came with the falafel plate. It had a flavor that reminded me of raw fish, which stood out even more since I also ordered the salmon kabob plate. I didn't really care for the falafels either. On the positive side, the hummus was delicious, and everything else was pretty good.Overall, it's probably a 50/50 chance that I'd give this place another try, especially since I have other solid options for this type of cuisine. Still, I'd recommend giving it a shot, everyone's taste is subjective, and your experience might be different.

Theres a few tables out front but if you get lucky enough to get a parking spot close, just bust that ho open and throw down on the trunk. Menu is halal and options are extensive. Fried Chicken Sandwiches are good as are the wings but my go to is the Beast Mode cheesesteak or the Prince Of Berkeley, can't go wrong either way. 4/5 always good especially late night Bonus: if your here late night you might as well check kingpin up the block and see if they've got hot donuts. You are welcome

I came back to IB's with friends and ordered the chili cheese fries…read more It was piping hot, salty but the chili part of it tasted good. The fries did get soft and more soggy because of the liquid in the chili and cheese, although it wasn't to the point that it was unpleasant texturally, but just wanted to note this probably isn't the best item to get if you like your fries crispy.

Had the pleasure of meeting the owner (Amir) who was so welcoming and helpful. The menu is simple and to the point. Classic Iranian cuisine with no fuss! If you need middle eastern groceries, they have a market next door. They carry a few different Palestinian products which I was quick to buy. Purchased the Al-Ard extra virgin olive oil. This place is a gem and will be my go to place for Persian food whenever I'm in the area.

If you are craving Pakistani or Bangladeshi cuisine, you must try it. It's been difficult to get our fix of top tier Bangladeshi food since moving from NYC. The biriyanis and masalas hit the right flavor profiles and taste SO good! (Note: It is a Pakistani restaurant not specifically a Bangladeshi restaurant. It's an excellent option to try if you cannot find a place you like). Be prepared for a no-frills self-service restaurant.

We came here last night and found everything to our liking--the generous appetizer of roasted Brussels sprouts (though we couldn't detect the pomegranate syrup), Maklouba and Bamia, both of which featured melt-in-your-mouth lamb. We'd give it 5 stars except that the Maklouba and Bamia seemed too heavily salted -- maybe because we're OGs and have to watch our salt intake, we don't salt our food at home.

It's very messy and hard to eat but tastes really good. The relish is sweet relish or something, I didn't like the relish. Burger: They use the good pickles. I asked for a side on the way out and I got a good amount of their amazing pickles. Burger patty is not too special, just a pre shaped patty, but it's good. Buns and toppings are good too. Very solid burger for the price. I was stuffed after eating both the burger and hotdog and could barely finish. I recommend this place highly Very good experience

I have driven by this place so many times and finally got a chance to check them out!…read moreI order: Chili Cheese Dog (4 Stars) with Onions and Mustard. They serve the grilled all beef dog on a good sized bun (grilled too), with American cheese on bun, at first I thought they forgot the cheese, but discover it was on the bottom. They lay down the dog onto the grilled cheesy bun, then add a good amount of chili, but not so much you can't see the dog, then a squeeze of mustard, then topped with sliced onions, not chopped. The chili has beans, decent flavor, but not much better than your standard canned chili. They serve with plastic knife and fork, definitely not a handheld chili dog. Good stuff! Onion Rings (4 stars) the onion rings are breaded and fried perfectly crispy. Good stuff! Until next time: Try cheese burger, grilled onions

We got the sev puri chaat and mixed veggies dosa to share. The chaat had a weird bitter taste and the brown chutney on top (which I assumed must be the mint chutney) was not good at all. Everything was soggy not one big crunchy like what you would expect in a chaat. The only thing good about the dosa was the crispy party. Coconut chutney did not taste coconuty at all. The veggies filling inside was not bad. I was surprised to see how packed it was. I do like the idea of the ordering counter and convenience of it but I will not be returning.
