Fettuccini Alfredo with chicken.
Lisa S.

Jay,the owner, has made this spot cozy, welcoming, and the food was outstanding! The Chicken Fettuccini Alfredo which he makes from scratch was the best that I've had in a very long time. Allow time for him to make it because I promise it is worth the wait. We will be trying everything on the menu and introducing this restaurant to family and friends. The food, service and ambience were that good! Thanks Jay!

My 1st visit to Red Apple Kitchen for a casual birthday get together w/a family of 6. The restaurant looks like it can seat about 25. There is a kiosk for ordering so you can easily order without looking up at the board if you have limited visibility. It was pretty much a 1 man show & he handled everything beautifully. Orders: Chicken Wings for appetizer w/a side of salad. This was a well seasoned appetizer but my piece had a bit too much salt. Other than that the chicken had a crispy coat of seasoning with a side of ranch dressing. Pizza's Mama's Favorite Pizza-arugula, spinach, white sauce w/added maple bacon was undeniably fresh. The 1st bite was tell tale of how thoughtfully curated the chef was. The ingredients so fresh, it's like having your personal chef in your own kitchen. Garlic Chicken Pizza-creamy white sauce with bite size chicken that you can see & taste. The garlic added that beautiful aromatic aurora that made it just as delightful as the Mama's Favorite Pizza. The owner, chef, waiter & clerk was so friendly, & welcoming that visiting Red Apple Kitchen was like being invited to a friend's home.

Big city combo

I almost want to gate keep how good this place is, but I want more people to come by and support a local business! Love their big city combo! Their dough is cooked to perfection! It's so soft and has this amazing almost sour dough like flavor. All the toppings taste so fresh and feels very welcoming every time I come in to pick up a pizza!

The menu in question

Since the menu images aren't even of their actual food, it's difficult to make a choice when coming here, especially since the images of the food are incredibly unappetizing AI images. I'm wondering if the person who used the AI image generator when designing this menu used a prompt like, "make a menu from the perspective of an extraterrestrial who only has cursory familiarity with what human food should look like". In fact, the signage was so unappetizing, that I just left the shop. I've had a pepperoni pizza from here once before, and it was OK, but this new direction makes me hesitant to try anything else from this establishment.

Bacon arugula pizza.

Buffalo wings with French fries and ranch dressing
Stacy M.

ALL I can say was wow this pizza dough was so fluffy and airy . Also buffalo chicken wings was great .Amazing service and chef Jay is so nice love this place. This location is off washington Blvd San leandro so convenient and inside is a vibe and wonderful plants every where

Menu with images

Good food and good service. The man who greeted me was very friendly. They had a decent dish selection but I just went with a personal pizza with pepperoni, Canadian bacon, and mushrooms. The food tasted great and was fresh. Only thing I don't like is how the menu images are obviously made with AI. When people are looking for food they want to see REAL pictures of REAL food, taken by REAL people. I have no agency in the creative direction of this company but I definitely recommend changing the menu images to actual photos of the food because it tastes great.

10/10 for Red Apple ! One man runs the whole place and it shows. Everything was great. I forgot to take photos of the wings but highly recommend it! Will come back. Service was absolutely great! Ambiance is very modern and great place to hang out.

Horrible and wrong pizza
Eric L.

I'm updating my review from 5 stars to 1 star. It seems there's been a change in ownership, and the service quality has plummeted. The staff is unprofessional and unreliable. My wife's pickup order was delayed by over an hour past the scheduled time, and they refused to issue her a refund. Despite her repeated attempts to cancel in person and through the app, the staff kept lying to the third-party app, claiming the food was ready when it clearly wasn't. Only one staff member was working, appeared to be under the influence, and random people seemed to be hanging out in the back room that didn't appear to be staff. The food quality was equally appalling (see pictures). Needless to say, I won't be returning. Update - I received a refund finally through the app but won't be coming here again.

Big City Combo
Dianah R.

Our new favorite neighborhood pizza joint. I love that that have affordable small pizzas, so when the family all wants sometjing different, we can order what we want! They have some interesting special pizzas too. I reallly loved their Red Apple Pizza with apples, caramelized onion, arugula and white sauce!

Chicken Alfredo - Regular

Living in the neighborhood I like to always try new food places. This ONE did not disappoint.. GREAT FOOD!! GREAT SERVICE FROM JAY (owner) I had the Chicken Alfredo and lemon pepper wings And let me just say!!! I'LL BE BACK!! Portion to pasta is good for two people, the price amazing for the amount you get. Wings!! Perfect flavor and rub.. FOUND MY NEW SPOT

Half veggie/half pepperoni
Laura E.

Friend and I enjoyed catching up at Red Apple Kitchen this afternoon over pizza outside! Restaurant a bit hidden so we most likely wouldn't have heard of it if not for Yelp. We shared a 10 inch build your own half veggie and half pepperoni. Very tasty and not expensive at all. So easy to order on the kiosk. Some of the tables outside were dirty but they were cleaned quickly when I told the person working at the counter. He was so nice and quick to take care of our needs. The pizza was brought out quickly! Though my friend didn't bring her dogs this time, we liked that outdoor seating is available. We don't come to San Leandro often but would come back if in the area.

Any chance someone can post a current menu and prices? Was thinking of going but all the clear menu pics and pricing is from before the owner change and website is no longer. Thanks! (I like to look at my options before going).

Hi Alice, thanks for your inquiry. Our website is active and the link is available on our Yelp page (www.RedAppleSanLeandro.com). There you will see more details regarding our menu.… 

Are they still opened?? I've been calling for a couple of weeks and can't get through, and they aren't open when I drive by. Hoping they're just on vacation!

Thanks for your patience Janelle, GOOD NEWS.... The restaurant has re-opened looking better than ever! The menu has also been given a delicious upgrade. Along with great Pizza you can get a delicious selection of Pasta, Salads and new Chicken Wing… 

Does anyone know if Red Apple is open during the SIP? Just want to verify in case we can support them during this pandemic (and also eat great pizza)!

Yes they just re-opened yesterday 5/15.

The QR ordering system was down the day that we were there so they were taking orders at the bar.

Walked in on a Saturday night with no reservations around 6:30 and was seated right away for a…read moreparty of two. We ordered the brussel sprouts, Venetian aracini, summer special with swordfish, and rigatoni bolognese. The brussel sprouts were tossed and coated in parmesan cheese. The pieces were crispy without feeling heavy and paired nicely with the chili aioli. The aracinis were delectable. The filling was creamy, but the tomatoes provided freshness to the dish. The swordfish is plated on top of basil pesto risotto. Never had swordfish before, but this had my tastebuds dancing. The piece of fish was decently sized, marinated and moist, although the risotto can get a bit heavy. The pasta was cooked to al dente, and there were chunks of meat throughout the dish. Solid plate of pasta. Came out already topped with parmesan cheese. Some of their menu items are a part of a pre fixe menu for $55 thats offered in the afternoons Monday-Friday such as the salmon, short rib, and chicken piccata options. There is a bar area located deep in the restaurant. The servers were attentive and checked up on us and refilled our water several times.

She just wanted him to note that the kitchen did not allow them to filter out the sand. He exploded and said all clams would be sandy and suggested she was ignorant. FYI, I have linguine and clams at many restaurants and have never had that much sand in it. He obviously does not know how to speak to customers and also has a problem with women. Criticism is met with anger and denial. Beware: if you express any dissatisfaction with your meal, you might be confronted by the owner, who will try to intimidate you, argue with you for way too long and tell you that you are wrong. Even though a manager came by to apologize with gift cards encouraging us to give them another try, we will never go back. This will be our last $300 lunch at Paradiso.
