    Delicious chicken ta plate.  Absolutely one of the best dishes I've had!
    Inverleith F.

    I certainly do not come here often enough because they are adding new restaurant offerings all the time. For lunch today, Deb 7, 2025, I had the chicken ta plate from TamTam. The chicken! So many goodies on top including crunchy onions, red chilies and the variety of flavors and textures in the bowl was unbelievable! The rice is nice and sticky, the pickled daikon and carrots add a nice tartness and crispness to the bowl. The added sweet fish sauce just puts the flavors over the top. I poured some over the bowl and then dipped everything just for extra tang. My mistake for not checking the bag as my utensils were missing so pro tip is to look in the bag before running out. The crew delivered it right to me and were very friendly. I wish they had a soda fountain because I just didn't want to get on the app again to get a can beverage. They do offer water from a jug. There is more indoor seating now and new covered seating outside. I was able to park in the small lot as well. Can't wait to come back to try something new.

    Latin Ninja

    The Latin Ninja was OK. The quality of the salmon used was ok but the amount and flavors were yummy. It was about $20. My friend enjoyed her Taco bowl but thought the one at La Chamba in Moraga is better. The best thing about Local Kitchens is the variety and I'd want to try more. The best part of our experience was the worker we met-- Dave Stash! He was so awesome and enthusiastic, he really made our day.

    The Broke Chick Tam
    Alex M.

    I ordered the Broke Chick Tam from Tam Tam Rice, and it's been one of the tastiest menu items I've tried so far at Local Kitchens. There were so many flavors and textures to keep it interesting, yet everything paired so well together - no boring chicken and rice here! The chicken was very flavorful on its own, but the sweet fish sauce brought it to the next level. The pork and egg quiche was a unique touch, and I loved the pickled vegetables (I wish there were more!). The Persian cucumber and tomatoes almost had a Mediterranean flavor profile and seemed a little out-of-place, but they were refreshing. The overall rice to protein ratio was a bit high, but I liked how the rice soaked up the sauce and absorbed all the flavors. I'd definitely order the chicken rice plate again.

    I stopped by LK @ Lafayette, and discovered they remodeled the place. They added more seating inside in the form of bar space. They also improved the tables outside on the patio. The inside has the upgraded water and condiment station. I ordered: - The Meltburger - Fries - Tempura Shrimp Local Kitchens in Lafayette still has the best food! LK @ Lafayette was the first Local Kitchens location. It was also the place where we had a Yelp Elite Event, where I was introduced to the LK brand. Since then, I have been to every location in the SF Bay Area, plus Davis and Roseville. I always order on the LK App, and I always pickup my own food.

    This is the second Local Kitchen location that I've dined at. The purpose of the visit to this location was to support the launch of the S.O.B (Sweet Onion Burger) by a favorite chef of mine, Alvin Cailan (owner of Eggslut and Amboy in SoCal). The location was very busy but full of life with a DJ and various activities happening around the parking lot. I was given a ticket to claim one burger. The staff at the restaurant was very friendly. I received my burger right off the grill and was impressed! The simplicity of the burger made with ground beef and sweet onions pressed together, combined with a slice of cheddar cheese, sauce and soft buns tasted very delicious! I did get to meet my favorite chef and complemented his creation. I'll definitely be back for the burger and support other Local Kitchen locations. I need to try the other food vendors working with the kitchen too.

    I am here a lot! This place is so wonderful as it allows your whole family to pick different things while all being delicious! Mexican, Mediterranean, sushi, burgers, pizza, etc. They have it all! The service is generally quick and you can help yourself to water and utensils. Pretty easy to use their online app to order ahead of time too.

    Mush-o-roni
    WC N.

    As promised, we returned to try the next culinary adventure. This time we went with the classics: pizza and fries. But not just any piece of pie- the "mush-o-roni" delivered a symphony of savory deliciousness. (Did not need to drive into Oakland to get it) Next was the woozy fries- they will make your tastebuds swoon. Another happy dance for the party in my tummy Did I mention the friendly fast service? - well now I did

    One can order here on the kiosk

    Tam Tam Broken Rice has been a go to - seriously favorite! The plate itself is filled with the delicious broken rice, the tender chicken, the chard, pickled radish and carrots and the tofu squares! It's a delicious combination of a dish for one person split it to two meals and it's perfect. Could be eaten dine in or take out! They have out door seating and parking! The price point for a meal without add ins is affordable.

    Tomato soup
    Skipp E.

    Amazing. Super easy ordering system. Fast service and the foot was outstanding I got the impossible melt burger (double patty) and it was great. It wasn't messy and didn't fall apart. Everything about it satisfied me The garlic fries were good as was the tomato soup. Last we got the fried chicken sandwich. Very good as well. So many dodging options so I have many reasons to come back. Service was good and the guy up front was as friendly and chipper as can be.

    Chicken and bacon Mac and cheese from The Melt
    Cynthia L.

    First off, I actually quite enjoy this idea of multiple businesses inherently sharing one location. Not only does it make traveling to get certain foods easier, you can also enjoy a variety. Not much service to be had as it's a fast food style joint. Basically you go in and order on a tablet, then your name shows up on their giant tv to the left of the entrance. Wait for your meal, and then you're good to go. That said, while there's a lot of space in the building, not a lot of waiting space unless you feel like standing. There are benches outside though that are good for a good weather day. Now, onto food. I'm glad Melt is here as well as Humphry Slocombe. That said, for this round, I got some lumpia from the lumpia company there. Then I got a chicken and bacon Mac and cheese from the melt. Fair warning, the mac and cheese normally has garlic and a whole lot of it to the point I feel it's border inedible. So I removed it and it's soooooo much better. The lumpia itself was good and yet a disappointment. They're not fresh made lumpias. Rather they're frozen ones. We got an order of 8 and two of them had fillings explode out of it. When I pulled the filling out, it was very "tube-like" which told me this was frozen. Also, there's quite a bit of empty room in the lumpia so more filling would be nice. My boyfriend got a chicken tikka masala from Curry Up Now in which it's pretty good. That said, fair warning that the spice builds. It starts off mild and then works up to medium spice. Overall, probably would come again for the Melt or other brands. But probably will pass on the lumpia for a good while. The frozen mini egg rolls from i-Tea in Moraga are better

    See all

    Tam Tam Rice was excellent! Great blending of flavors. The variety of different foods was artful.
