"As one of the East Bay’s premier practitioners of the art of plant-based faux meat, the Butcher’s Son has built up a huge following for its lineup of “meaty” sandwiches — takes on everything from a classic chopped cheese to a Reuben to chicken parm, all made with faux meat products developed and produced in-house. There are some gluten-free dishes available on the menu, and the weekend brunch is also popular with diners." - Dianne de Guzman
