"After the recent closure of Doña Tomás, Dona Savitsky has opened Doña at 3770 Piedmont Avenue in Oakland, serving Doña Tomás’ most popular dishes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and featuring a full bar; she warns that hours may vary as they ramp up in December and urges patrons to check their Instagram before visiting." - Eve Batey
"Doña Tomás has set an official closing date of Sunday, November 24; after that, owner Doña Savitsky plans to open a new, similar business called Doña on Piedmont Avenue with a goal of opening mid-December." - Caleb Pershan
"Planned to open at 3770 Piedmont Avenue in mid-September, Doña will be a 90-seat, laid-back Mexican restaurant related in concept to Doña Tomás (Savitsky is dropping the 'Tomás' as a nod to her former partner) and is being opened with Doña Tomás manager Andee Brown. It will feature counter service all day, every day; a weekday breakfast menu with pastries; a larger bar and accompanying bar-food menu; continued weekend brunch; and a 30–50-seat patio for outdoor dining. Doña will occupy about 4,300 square feet on the ground floor of the subdivided former Chow space." - Ellen Fort
"Temescal’s Doña Tomás is extending its special prix-fixe menu on weekdays through spring." - Janelle Bitker
"I observed that Doña Tomás will donate 10 percent of all proceeds from lunch and dinner sales on Tuesday, November 20 (and will continue to do so on the following two Tuesdays, November 27 and December 3) to Grant Kerber’s GoFundMe page, which will then go to the North Valley Community Foundation to aid fire victims." - Janelle Bitker
