Cute menu display!
Evelyn E.

The spot is a hidden gem. It's inside a neighborhood market. I didn't want to go to Noah's Bagels & Starbucks. So I yelped for the closest Lox Bagel... and I realized I've been meaning to go here! So I finally went here to get breakfast before running errands on 7/30/19 around 10:30am. From the moment I entered, I was greeted by every worker I encountered on my way to the back. Not only is everyone so friendly. The market is so clean and organized. You don't feel overwhelmed walking in and looking around. In the back, you have the cafe area with seating and ample room. This may be a great place to get some work done quietly. Although, I've just let the cat out of the bag on that Once I took in my options from the cute display order, I rang the service bell. I ordered two Deluxe Lox Bagels and a Chai Tea with Almond Milk. My food and drink was prepared in a timely manner. Just enough time for me look at their refrigerated section... and... OH MAN! I want to come back from lunch. Their salads look so fresh! There sandwiches are huge! Options are great for the price! Definite coming back to try more take and go meals! And to support the neighborhood market! ALSO, if you are a new momma! They have a MEET-Up available! How nice is that!!! Great way to build community... how can you not want to come here!

Take 'n bake veggie pot pie; prepared at home
Ashley F.

This review would be 5 stars if I had only had the sandwich I came to TLG for. But, I decided to purchase the take-n-bake veggie pot pie and thus, this review has dropped to 3 (2.5, even) stars. Let's start with the sandwich: it was delicious! I ordered the custom grilled cheese which basically ended up being a fancy pesto chicken sammie. I got havarti cheese, country chicken, pesto, tomatoes and avocado on ciabatta bread. The only thing I will say is that the country chicken comes as a sort of chicken salad, with cranberries, celery and chicken cubes in a creamy sauce. It didn't bother me much but I could see someone being very opposed to this if they just thought country chicken meant rotisserie or baked chicken (like I did). Now the pot pie. Sigh. I got it for my fiancé but I ended up just eating it as he doesn't do anything overly creamy. That was not my issue. The packaging is very simple; the only instruction is '375' for 35 minutes'. But if you want the puff pastry to, in fact, puff, you need to remove the top and bake it separately. The taste was decent but there were SO MANY PEAS. I know that's a normal staple in pot pies but sheesh!! If you like peas, then this pot pie is for you:) All that aside, it's a cute place hidden in a market so you can peruse while you wait for your food. I would go back but I'd most likely never get anything from their take-n-bake freezer case, again.

Please look no further for your catering needs. I called the market hall to ask them for their catering services and they were not customer friendly at all. All I kept hearing was to check their website and decide. It was cold!!! On the contrary, the experience with Two Local Girls at Rocky's market, was absolutely delightful. They were warm friendly and were very good about giving recommendations and suggestions based on party size and the event. This is what I needed as opposed to the cold "check our website" treatment I got from market Hall. As for the food, every single dish was amazing. The turkey Cran sandwiches were scrumptious and they had so many wonderful options. Everyone at the event kept asking me where I had the food catered from. You cannot go wrong with the two local girls and Corinne please give them a shot and support our local business in the neighborhood. Ps: ignore the GOT theme;)

I'm in the process of moving and have been eating pretty badly did a quick search and this place came up. I got a small Kale salad and Chicken Pot pie and I'm completely satisfied and happy. I needed to eat clean and this hit the spot. I think I will add this place to my list of favorites.

Literally one of the best ham sandwiches I've ever had. 5 Yelp stars for this one
Michael C.

Amazing local coffee / sandwich shop in a market. I arrived and they were giving out free coffee today so I indulged. Amazing iced latte (not that it's hard to go wrong) and I almost feel like going back and getting another. Definitely tomorrow! I also had a ham sammy which is insane. Granted I'm a little hungover so most things would be good, but this seriously amazing. Good size too. The staff and service was brilliant with everyone being super friendly. If you're looking for a good brunch / lunch, this is the place to go.

The interior makes one feel that you are in a high end cafe with its beautiful decor. Some many items to choose from, the person taking my order was very helpful in explaining the different kinds of drinks and pastries. Ordered the Ginger Honey Jobani as a hot drink, Biscoff Milkcake, Honeycomb, and a Beef Fatayer. There were several kinds of milkcakes which would have the texture like a tres leches cake. The Honeycomb had pockets of cream cheese and was drizzles with honey. The Meat Fatayer is like an empanada. The food and drink were very tasty.

MLK Cafe was perfectly located and exactly what I needed. I've never had Eritrean food before, so I was pretty excited. I ordered the foul meseleh ($13) from the breakfast menu (available all day though I had to ask for it), which was a bean-based dish, and chai. It kind of reminded me of shakshuka in terms of spices but the beans almost tasted meaty. I liked it so much that I brought it home, and my partner said it tasted like refried beans (though he did have them cold). The crusty warm bread was perfect for dipping, and I ended up not being able to finish it. The chai was pretty milky; there was a tea bag and the spices weren't very strong. Then again, I'm used to Indian chais. I would pass on the chai. There was basically no one else there on a Friday afternoon during off-peak hours. It was dimly lit and kind of chilly because the door was left open, so it wasn't the most comfortable cafe ambiance. The wifi did work well though and I would come back to try more Eritrean and Ethiopian food.

That's what really drew us in. Very tasty breakfast, got the injera breakfast plate filled with lots of spices, tomato flavor and tang from the bread. Super addicting if you love those flavors. Very thankful to be given a side of yogurt to help cool the heat down. Definitely would order this again, but maybe add my own mix-ins like an egg or more protein since it's very carb heavy. Inside wise, you can watch two tv's playing sports, our waitress/cashier was very kind, and it appeared like many locals hanging out. Only thing is their menu prices are out of date. About $13 plus tax per plate. Hope to come back at night to see the bar open and some live music!

I will say, if you have somewhere to be *ORDER ONLINE*. I got there and was told to order from the self serve tablet (I could have done this on my phone ahead of time), but I put in my order and sat down to wait for it. At the 22 min mark, the two groups of two behind me got their food before I did, so I went up to the worker behind the bar and asked if my order was ready and I was told mine would be next. All in all- took 32 mins. So again, if you have somewhere to be- order ahead! Food was good. Could definitely tell it was made fresh to order - not only because it took some time but because my friend cauliflower came out PIPING hot. Lots of oil drippings, so if that isn't your thing, may not be for you, but I will say that it was my fav bite. This was a good restaurant- I would say 4 stars for the food alone. BUT if you're in a pinch, either order online or maybe save this spot for when you have more time. Also- I know that good quality food is pricey, this place is no exception. But you pay for what you get and the quality is better than that of fast food.

While this visit was in between the lunch and dinner rush, unfortunately I think they are understaffed because at the time we sat down there was only 1 person who was busing tables and taking orders. As a result, it took a while for them to be able to stop by our table and provide water, take our order, etc. There was quite a long wait between sitting down to ordering to actually receiving our food. By the time we had actually received our food, almost an hour had passed. While we were waiting, a few other servers eventually joined, but service was still pretty bare for us and we never received refills on water or plates to eat off of when we received our food. I understand that staffing and a backup in the kitchen are out of the staff's control, but it would've definitely helped for us to know in advance how long to expect to wait to align our expectations and arrange our plans for the day. Would advise giving customers a quick heads up/warning because that on its own would've made a big difference. As for the actual food, we ordered the mac trio with elote mac, chicken pot pie mac, and kogi short rib mac (for an extra fee). The elote mac was the best and most flavorful, the short rib mac was okay but not amazing or worth the extra money, and the chicken pot pie mac was very bland/flavorless and didn't have much chicken in it. The food didn't feel like it warranted the wait time and because of that I would not return.

This place might have become my favorite fast-casual burger joint in Oakland…read more Since my first review, I've enjoyed their food three more times -- in person once and DoorDash twice. And it's been satisfying and well worth it all three times. I recommend both dining in and delivery. You cannot go wrong with their double burger. The smashed patties are perfectly cooked and seasoned. The supporting elements are quality and executed spot-on each time: the cheese, grilled onions, and mayo. It's a perfect fast casual burger. I also recently tried the Chopped Beef burger and dang it was amazing. The hearty meat and cheese the and buttery bread texture hit hard. This will be another go-to and I recommend it. For sides I've gotten tator tots, regular fries, and season fries. All fantastic and they're generous with the portions. HOWEVER -- you've gotta get the seasoned fries. Addictive and finger-licking amazing. When dining in staff is always friendly. Area's not too busy and you'll always find parking easily down a side street. And price wise it honestly feels like a steal for me given the care and quality and pure satisfaction. Works for me though -- I'm going to keep ordering from this place. Cannot recommend this gem of a burger joint enough. Fantastic seasoning and execution, solid prices, and absolutely satisfying every time.
