Wow! I found myself in Vallejo for the first time ever. The early-afternoon craving for food came…read moreon me. Google Maps showed that Five Star Chicken was just 400 feet away. I saw on the door that they served Halal fried chicken. Ordered the lightly spiced parm bowl. Chucks of crispy fried chicken, crinkle fries, Cole slaw, pickles, and lettuce all in a bowl. The combo was dusted with a magic blend of spices. It was the perfect find for me! On top of that, the angel who works the counter shared with me the history of the owners and what he learned from working in a multicultural workplace. Loved the chicken, the flavors, and the warmth the beautiful counter man shared!

Good food. Great service. Ok ambiance. If you like fried,…read morebreaded chicken breasts/ strips then this is your place. Chicken sandwiches with slaw you can get it mild spicy or hot. Fry's are pretty good nice and crispy. They also have some good lemonades and punch drinks. The staff is very nice, and the place looks nice, and it's cleanly maintained. But, there nothing else in the area. They do have a TV.

we visited Manny's back when they were on Spring Rd. and obviously followed them to the waterfront…read more Manny's is a pleasant and welcoming place to eat and drink. The help are freindly and accomadating, the bartenders make a good drink. We love the scallops dish and the steak salad and a few other items on the menu. the Bar area is where I like to sit for all the fun but my wife likes to sit in the booths to look out into the waterfront and Mare Island...I do too, it is a wonderful view. Just a couple of things I wish for...someone always manning the front to greet us hungry folks and lets get some pictures, paintings and other artifacts of ol'Vallejo, Mare Island, the Waterfront and Bovines.

Amanda,helped make our experience at Manny's Steakhouse great!! Awesome service!!!…read more The steak are superb. I've been to the best and what I can say is their filets seemed like prime meat. You know, melt in your mouth filets. All the food my wife and I had was awesome. High quality with a nice ambience. Best of all, reasonably price!!!

One of the best fruit salads I ever had in my life, I had it at Provisions…read more Decided to visit for brunch, and wow was I surprised. The place is busy, which is always a good sign. You can be seated inside or outside. Apparently, they have specials that change frequently. I had a burrata & fruit stone salad, simple perfection. So heavenly! Don't get me wrong the chicken and waffles were delicious but the salad was divine. Go! You will not regret it.

Food was tasty but portions were shockingly small. The Korean Bowl was served with barely any rice…read moreand half the plate was dried out Julienned carrots. The other plate, Churro waffles with a side of bacon and eggs were also chintzy . The server asked us if we wanted one or two eggs, we ordered two and definitely got one. The establishment takes pride in paying their staff a living wage but have allowed their food portions to dwindle. For making living wages, the staff is dry, generally annoyed with their job and lacks menu knowledge. Left feeling hoodwinked. Won't be returning.

We had the chilaquiles, breakfast burrito, breakfast skillet & churro waffles. All was SO SO yummy!…read moreThe service was also great. You can tell they are passionate about what they do. Will absolutely come back here to try the rest of the menu.

Brunch with friends is always enjoyable. This time we met at Joy of Eating cafe. The location of…read morethe cafe is easy to miss even though it's located on the street. There is a dedicated parking lot, tight but can hold a decent amount of cars. There is street parking as well, not metered - that is where I parked. The hostess was extremely friendly and attentive, checking in on us several times after ordering to notify of the food's ETA as well as refilling drinks and seeing if we needed anything. The dining area has approximately ten booths in total and became quite crowded around 12:30p. Our meals arrived at different times, items to eat meal arrived sparsely as well. We ordered around 11:30a, there were two other parties present. We were able to order based on our dietary needs/wants as the menu offered quite a diverse array. The crab omelette (known as The California Omelette on the menu) is 1/4 lb of fresh crab served either hot or cold enclosed in three eggs along with avocado and Monterey Jack cheese. For $26.35 the omelette left much to be desired, especially in flavor and seasoning. Nothing complimented or even enhanced the presence of the crab in any way. The remaining party at the table said they enjoy their meal - including a blueberry waffle, toast and eggs with bacon and a double cheeseburger with fries. If you are looking for an inexpensive place to gather, this cafe is certainly an option to consider. It was easy to speak and hear each other with ample privacy and not a lot of traffic - if any.

It was saddening to say the least!

Food: I was in Vallejo for a nail appointment and looking for some good food. I placed an order…read moreonline using the app and set a pick up time. I arrived and the food was hot and ready. I ordered the oxtails, rice and gravy and collard greens. The oxtails were mid. The were a little tight and light skinned meaning they needed to brown a little more. There was not enough gravy for the rice. The collard greens were mid also. Ambiance: The restaurant was nothing special but lets face it -- we dont go to black soul food restaurants for ambiance. We go for good food and Noonies disappointed for food. Service: The service was cool. Nothing special but a pleasant interaction. Parking: Decent parking in front of the building. Overall: It's cool! Not for me but might hit the spot for me. Also, I got my food shortly after they opened and perhaps some of the food was not fully cooked to its best. That said, again, not for me!

Don't be fooled though, this place knows what they're doing. Nice cashier who even gave us recommendations since it was our first time there. My sons burger was juicy and BOMB (which i was shocked bc usually ppl put less effort into kids orders I feel like) and my steak burrito was heavy, they're not greedy when it comes to portion sizes. We left with our bellies full and will for sure be stopping by next time we're in town. Ps. They were out of Chilaquiles when we went, must be popular on the menu. We'll be getting that next time! :)

I'm writing another review because I just can't say enough about how wonderful David and Kat and…read moreeveryone at Hopulent are. The food is always delicious with a rotating seasonal menu. The best fries I've ever had anywhere. Fantastic drinks including an amazing bloody mary. Indoor and outdoor seating and a beautiful multilevel patio area. And the cleanest, most pristine bathroom I have ever seen, that bathroom is spotless. Kat remembers our kids names, even between long stretches where we haven't come in for dinner in a minute. David and Kat promised our daughter they would make her a special Very Berry Mac and Cheese for her birthday. Something off menu, made to order just for our 5 year old, and just asked us to call the day before so they could be sure to have the berries. She felt so special and loved by these wonderful people who went out of their way to be kind to a neighborhood kid. AND Kat surprised us with mini berry cupcakes at the end of the meal. This is service you don't get anywhere else. AND the food is the best in Vallejo. If you haven't gone there yet, you are missing out on a true hidden gem.

Loved the outdoor seating! I was like enjoying the afternoon in someone's backyard…read more Food was fresh, made to order so it took some time. We had the Ban Mi, spicy chicken sandwich, fish & chips & the Jalapeño & bacon mac n cheese. Mac n cheese was FAB! Chicken sando was two thumbs up. The other two were good but really not worth mentioning. Service by the lady who worked the register was great! The gal who brought out our food was meh. I guess we were really turned off when we asked for extra napkins and she said something to the effect of "if I have time, I'm really busy and there are other people I have to help!" Well, excuse us! She did come down with a very small handful of paper towels. Meh. If I were in the area again, I'd go back but it's probably not a place I'd need to visit again.
