Others may have ridden its coattails, but this "bustling" tapas bar is "still rocking" Rockridge "after all these years" thanks to a "rotating" roster of "scrumptious small plates" with a French-Med bent, "old-world wines" and "artisanal cocktails" mixed by "black-belt bartenders"; while there are "eternal waits" to "rendezvous" on the "covered terrace", "walk-ins" can also "party like a grown-up" at the bar or "squeeze in" at one of the "long communal tables."

Michael Wild's "grand old dame" of Oakland "never goes out of style", turning out monthly "regional menus" of "sublime" "sustainable" Cal-Med fare ("any duck dish" will do ya) that's "comfort food for foodies"; boasting "impressive wines", "fair prices" and "professional", "pampering" service in a "quiet, houselike setting", it's HQ for "special occasions" and "open-air lunches" on the deck.

Striking a "balance" of "neighborhoody but not too casual", this "patrician" Presidio Heights haunt and its larger, "more alive" Rockridge brother present a Cal-Med menu that "gets the taste buds moving"; they're "reliable" for a "civilized dinner" or "business lunch", and though they "seem pricier than they need to be" to some, the nightly "happy-hour" specials are a "screaming deal"; N.B. the bar is set to be converted into a new branch of the owner's Marzano.

"Quality ingredients make all the difference" in the "addictive" burgers, "real milkshakes" and fries "cut fresh each morning" at this "cheap and cheerful", "family-owned" chain ("SoCal's gift to NorCal") with a "cult" following; despite "limited" choices, you can "mix things up" by "learning the secret menu" ("get it 'animal-style'"), and though constant "crowds" mean "you're not always in 'n' out" in a jiffy, the "energetic" "kids" behind the counter are always "polite" and "efficient."

"The price is right" at these Italian eateries, a "safe bet" for "generous portions" of "decent" dishes; "relatively quick" service and "lots of menu options" mean it's "about as kid-friendly as it gets" gush boosters with bambini, but the less impressed note "nothing pops" at this "IHOP for pasta", pouting it's "pedestrian" at best.

"If God were to order a pizza" it would be one of the "zantastic" pies at this East Bay "legend" claim converts who call the trio's deep-dish "gut-busters" a "religious experience" thanks to the "buttery, rich crust", "wonderful chunky-tomato sauce" and "fresh" toppings "heaped high"; since it's "always mobbed", mere mortals may want to "call ahead for takeout" or "pick up a half-baked" pie.

"Space rules" at Oakland's "excellent" "cosmic" museum, a "universe" of scientific "amusement" that's "worth the trip over the Bay Bridge"; its three telescopes make it the "place to be during meteor showers", so go ahead and "view the wonders of the sky" – just keep in mind that, like voyaging to the Red Planet, it's "tricky getting here"; N.B. while a film in the giant dome cinema costs extra, general admission includes one planetarium show.

"Quiet and intimate" midweek, "boisterous and exciting" on weekends, this "modern", midpriced Mission supper club and lounge (with an Oakland sib) is an "upscale place to chill"; the "cool" crowd digs that "it's more done up" than the "casual SoMa" spots nearby, plus "DJs ranging from local no-names to global headliners" and eclectic small plates show that it "tries hard."

The "diverse crowd" of "uptown hipsters and downtown office workers" keeps things "hopping" at this Oaklander where options include getting down on the sizable "dance floor", trying the "stellar" "selection of Belgian beers" and sampling "tasty" snacks ("pommes frites and desserts available until midnight"); just plan on "noisy" weekends (there's a $10 cover Friday–Saturday nights).

"The art deco decor is divine" at this "gorgeous" landmark "Oakland showplace" that has "all the charm of a theater from the 1930s", where live music and dance mix it up with the occasional "retro black-and-white movie" – when "the organ plays before and during the break" – and a bar "offers the basics"; N.B. it's home to the Oakland East Bay Symphony.

"Finally", there are "two world-class jazz supper clubs in the Bay Area" sigh fans of the "legendary" Oakland original and its "swanky", "acoustically brilliant" younger sister in the Western Addition; cognoscenti "nosh on the freshest sushi" first, as dining in the restaurant means reserved seating in the "packed" club; sure, it adds up to an "expensive" experience, but those not jonesing for Japanese can just "go for the music" suggest some, because "everything else is secondary."
