This little sub shop is one of the bedrock businesses in Glen Park Village. It's on Diamond across from the BART station, by all the nail salons. These folks are friendly, accommodating, and they serve the best subs around at prices you thought were long gone. I stick to the subs-- good, fresh, traditional fillings, sloppy mayo, and your choice of the trimmings, all on a big toasted soft roll. What's not to like? Certainly can't beat the price! A big veggie sub is a flat $5 bucks. Most everything else is in that price range, too. (more...)

Watching the little neighborhood of Glen Park expand its culinary horizons is a bit like watching children grow up. Each new individual, whether a baby or restaurant, brings forth uniqueness and charm. Just within the past few years, Glen Park has given birth to a gourmet pizzeria, a specialty foods market, and a wonderful little bistro called Le P'Tit Laurent, located on the corner of Chenery and Diamond.

My husband and I were very surprised to find this hidden gem of a restaurant in our neighborhood. Olivia's Brunch & Fine Dining is located at 3771 Mission Street, just up the hill on Mission, between Richland and Park. Look for it amid several Mexican and Nicaraguan restaurants and bakeries. The bars on the window didn't make the place look very inviting, but nevertheless, we decided to go in and check out the menu. (more...)

The new Giovanni’s restaurant is a wonderful updated version of the old neighborhood classic on Mission at Crescent. Owners Marcella and Ricardo Perez opened the restaurant after Mama and Papa (the original owners) retired after 16 years. They have completely updated the menu, adding a range of soups, salads, sandwiches, and pasta to complement the pizza. They have also updated the interior of the restaurant, renovating it from top to bottom. (more...)

If you look on the internet, many people call this the best Salvadorean restaurant in the City. However, this restaurant first got my attention due to the missing letters in the sign. What does La Santaneca mean anyway? Apparently it's someone from Santa Ana. (more...)

When you're in the mood for Thai food, be sure to check out Zabb Cuisine. It’s my new favorite place in the neighborhood! The owners are Ben and Add, a husband and wife team who just celebrated the restaurant’s one year anniversary on January 9th.They are offering specials to anyone joining in the celebration. My husband and I have strolled over for a meal several times throughout the past year, and the food has been consistently good.
