This spot is incredible and so unique! Who would've thought to put blueberries in a burger! I removed the blue cheese because I'm not a fan but it was super delicious the bacon is super crispy and I love the seasoning on the burger! The fries are fresh but a little too oily other than that it was good! The service is quick and the cashier bring the food out to you, keep in mind they only have outdoor seating but it's nice since the weather has been great! There's little shops near it so you can walk around and explore. I would definitely come back!

Bacon blueberry bleu cheese burger
Charlie A.

I think this place has the best burger in Alameda! The bacon blueberry bleu cheese burger is smackalackin! Standing taller than your face, you're gonna need to unlock your jawbone to take a proper bite of this beast. Sweet and savory, hitting all your senses. Chill and grab a drink next door while you wait for your food, there's even a patio in the back if weather is nice. Kick it, snatch a brewski and smack that triple B burger and be fat and happy. YOLO!

Came here since it's around the corner from the airport. Saw the yelp reviews and thought why not try it since it has a high ratings. Came in and saw the menu straight from the wall. Can't miss it, it's just that big screen. Just when I ordered the crispy hot dog from this dude. He chuckled and says "you came here to order just that?" I replied "yah, why not!! I want to eat a crispy hot dog." Then he said, "you looked at the menu and you don't want to try anything else?" So I asked him "alright! What do you recommend?" As he pointed out that it was on Food Network "Diners, Drive in and Dive" and that I should try it!!" So I told him go ahead and put those ones on my order: Nashville Hot Good Ol' Boy chicken Sandwich and Blueberry Bacon Blue Cheese Burger. Then when I got home I didn't see my Crispy Hot Dog that I originally ordered. Since I didn't get my hot dog that's the outcome of my scoring. Atleast I didn't give it a lower score. I didn't even wanted the burger nor the sandwich. I was craving a hot dog. Oh well! Maybe next time again which I doubt it. My party did like what I ordered. They said it was good. The place has outdoor seating.

Classic Cheeseburger
Steve D.

1303 Park St Alameda, CA 94501 On Sunday evening, around 7pm, I went to the popular "Scolari's Good Eats" to grab a Cheeseburger and Fries to go. In short, the food is good, service is good, but the prices are high. But you get to say you enjoyed the food at a famous local restaurant. 1303 Park Street is where you order. From there you have the choice of: - Takeout - Eat outside in a parklet - Go next door and eat in the bar, that has a patio. If you choose to eat there, they give you a number and they will bring you your food. But be aware, this isn't fast food. I had to wait 15-20 mins for my order. From the menu on the wall, I ordered: - Classic Cheeseburger w/ everything, $17.50 - Parmesan Truffle Fries, full order, $14 Gave the friendly server a 15% tip, total= $40.12 (incl tax) The Classic Cheeseburger is excellent. It's well balanced and delicious. Don't let that tall stack of lettuce concern you. You're not getting served a "salad burger." You will taste the medium rare meat patty and creamy cheese coating. The pickles and onions got my attention. The Parm Truffle Fries were a bit soggy and semi-crispy. Their dark color suggests they were "twice fried." Twice fried french fries are super crispy if they're plain. But they can get soggy quickly if you add toppings. My fries were tasty, but not very crispy. Overall, a good experience. https://www.scolarisgoodeats.com/ Next time, I will probably get plain fries and try the chicken sandwich.

Pepperoni pizza slice, Nashville hot good ol' boy, garlic scampi fries
Brandy G.

First time ever coming here, it was recommended by one of my friends. This is an order at the front, wait for the food situation with some picnic tables in front of the business. What a lot of people do is order food from here and get a drink from next door. The service was a little slow and they weren't that busy, so that was a little confusing. Overall, the atmosphere is pretty chill and just hang out with some friends vibes. We all felt the price was relatively high and not really matching with quality. The hot chicken sandwich was barely even hot but the chicken itself was pretty crispy which we liked. The chicken was kind of small for how big of a bun they give you. Plus the flavor wasn't all there, the thing that saved this sandwich from being bad was the jalapeños but if those weren't there it's pretty meh. The pizza slice was pretty good! I live for a good crust and this one fell a little short with the taste. My favorite thing was the fries, they come with chili flakes which were delicious but it seems like the toppings were small for how many fries there were. More garlic and chili flakes please! Overall I think I would find myself back here if I'm in the area but I don't think I would ever seek this place out. It was honestly just too expensive, pizza slice was $9 when usually pizza slice are max $6? I don't know, just seems like too high for quality of items. Parking was not a problem this night and Alameda street parking after 6pm is free!

Coconut shrimp, peanut butter, and jelly specialty sandwich
Heather H.

We enjoyed two different burgers and a specialty sandwich which included coconut shrimp along with peanut butter and jelly. All our dishes were very fresh, flavorful, and large in portion. I would certainly come back here again.

Garlic scampi fries (half and full order), blueberry bacon blue cheese burger, B.A.T Sandwich
Helen A.

4.5/5 I've been to Scolari's for years and this place has good quality burgers! It definitely hits the spot. My go to here is the blueberry bacon blue cheese burger. My friend didn't enjoy it as much as me, so if you're not into the sweet/savory flavor combination then I wouldn't order this. The fries are crispy, I believe they are twice fried, and the garlic scampi is loaded with fresh garlic. They don't have seating inside and it's a walk up and order place. However, you can grab your burger and enjoy it next door at Lucky 13 with a beer or they have outdoor seating available. The outdoor seating doesn't have heaters, so I recommend going on a sunny day if you want to enjoy sitting outside.

Garlic Fries
Cameron C.

Even after several years, this burger joint is one of the BEST. Their beyond burgers are exceptional, almost better than their beef patties. My favorite is the blueberry burger! Highly recommend stopping by whenever in Alameda.

Classic Cheeseburger, Fries (fried once), Alameda Soda Rootbeer

Drawn to this place based on the yelp reviews and was not disappointed! You can smell the fresh patties walking up to the door. The staff is welcoming and informative. There is only outdoor seating, perfect for a sunny day. Definitely worth the trip.

Menu for food truck
Veronica L.

Triple B burger with blue cheese, bacon, and blueberries was definitely a huge burger with unique components. It took a long time to get from their food truck at Almanac but it was good and I liked the sweet and savory combination. Their fries looked pretty cooked through so decided to skip that.

Chicken sandwich
Dominic D.

Favorite burger in town and worth every bite. Service is quick and ambiance is great because you can grab a local beer to enjoy as well. Their food truck can be found at local breweries as well.

This review is purely on the service.. The lady on Friday night is dishonest and scummy. I luckily ended up seeing this separate transaction of 6.83 on my card as I was still in the area. I went to ask about it and she said it was the tip I left, which I didn't remember leaving but I said oh well my mistake. I ended up calling my bank later because I had a gut feeling, and my bank said this transaction happens 13 minutes after my initial transaction so it clearly wasn't me who put in the tip and had to be the lady (who again lied to my face). I won't be coming back here purely on dishonest service. I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else.

The strawberry bacon blue cheese burgers is simply amazing!!

What is the current menu? Last time I went it changed but don't remember the changes.

Unfortunately, I failed to take a picture of the menu when I was there. However, I did have Fish Tacos that were absolutely delicious. When I looked at the other menus that were posted, I couldn't find them anywhere.… Read more

Do they have GF buns? And no, lettuce is not a bun. :) Thanks!

Nope. They will do lettuce and the lettuce is a nice butter but no buns and nothing else here is gf sadly.

Do they serve the Impossible burger?

Yes !

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

This is my favorite hummus republic spot! They have a craft soda machine too (but the diet cola has…read morebeen out of service for a while ) The staff here are very friendly and make sure that you get the value for your money with their serving sizes. I love this location and restaurant because I know I will always be taken care of. The chicken is always well prepared, tender, and juicy. The hummus options are delicious. The street mix is a must. And don't be afraid to get some of grandma's hot sauce The spot is good for people that like to select the things that go into their salads and pitas. Tons of options and combinations of flavors. I would recommend the spot for somebody looking to fill up on a meal to those that are looking for healthier alternatives. If you're in downtown Alameda, definitely give this a shot. Check their hours and days of the week they are open - I've defiantly show up to a closed spot and had to come back the next day!

This place has been around for awhile and comes highly recommended by locals. A friend and I went…read morehere on a Monday afternoon. The staff was cordial and friendly, and the chicken-themed decor, charming. Now it IS a chicken joint, the go-to chicken spot for my full carnivore friend. He loves them for their chicken, their inexpensive menu and their large portions. I'm mostly pescatarian, though I do sometimes cheat with bacon. (I always feel SO guilty afterwards too!) I ordered the honey mustard salad with bacon and no chicken. My friend ordered the chicken Mac n cheese and tater tots. The bill came up to $30, and the portions were good on on the salad, GREAT on the tater tots and decent on the chicken mac. I can't speak personally on the chicken but my friend says it's amazing. I tasted some of his Mac n cheese with no chicken, and it was really good and flavorful, nice and cheesy. I tasted his tater tots. They were plentiful, well-seasoned and fried to golden perfection, with a nice crunch. I ate all of my salad. My friend couldn't finish his chicken Mac or his tater tots and was happy to be able to take them to go for another meal. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this place.

I have been coming here over the years and never had any issues…read more However tonight the following happened: The friendly staff took our order : two sandwiches and an order of fries. About 10 minutes later the server brought what looked like our food to the only other table at the restaurant. The pair sitting there brought it back to the server as it wasn't what they ordered. Our server apologetically just handed us the food that another pair had inspected and returned (they said they didn't touch it). No napkins, fries, or ketchup for the fries. I went to the counter and asked for napkins and fries and politely asked about our fries. They apologized and said it would come right out. My sandwich bread turned out to be fairly burned, and it tasted burned. Towards the end of finishing our sandwiches (about 20 minutes after I ordered and 10 minutes after I asked about the fries), I asked if my fries could be to-go. The friendly server was again apologetic and said they would check on it. A minute later they came out with a box of fries and apologized they they had been forgotten about in the kitchen. They were no longer hot. I was disappointed with my most recent trip.

We originally…read moreplanned to go to another pizza place, but the wait was long and they closed early for a Saturday, so we ended up here--and we're so glad we did. Everything from the service to the overall vibe was great. The drinks were well balanced, not too sweet or too strong. The garlic cheese bread was honestly one of the best we've had--crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, with the perfect amount of cheese and garlic. Their ranch was really good too, probably house made. We also ordered the Old School Detroit-style pizza and it was cooked perfectly with crispy edges and super flavorful sauce. Definitely coming back.

We specifically asked about the heater and were told they'd "send someone to turn it on." Later, when our waiter said he didn't know how, I went back to the hostess, and she immediately said, "Oh, they aren't working." So why not just say that from the start? They clearly already knew the three outdoor heaters were out of gas. It's winter -- something guests should be told upfront. We asked if we could sit inside and were told no because they had "only one waiter." Yet I saw at least four different servers working. We stayed only because we had already ordered -- we're not shady like that -- but honestly, transparency would've saved everyone the trouble. Food: *Caesar salad was cut oddly and overpriced. *Pesto pizza tasted more like spinach -- one of the least flavorful "pesto" pizzas I've had. *Two dirty water cups. *Asked for ice twice and never got it. *Sodas only came after asking twice. Other issues: *One bathroom stall was completely out of toilet paper. *The lock on the handicap stall didn't work. The only standout was The All Star pizza -- that one was actually very good. Overall, not worth the visit. Better communication, working heaters, and basic attention to service and facilities would've made a huge difference.
