Californian-Filipino breakfast classics with a modern twist
"Alameda has plenty of old-school breakfast joints serving basic egg plates, which makes Neptune’s a nice change of pace. They’re doing breakfast classics with a Californian-Filipino spin. That means you’ll find big bacon and tater tot-stuffed breakfast burritos, fantastic longanisa and fried chicken silogs, and benedicts with kale. The major caveat is that their breezy dining room and back patio are only open for dine-in Monday to Friday. During the prime Saturday and Sunday brunch days, they do takeout." - julia chen 1, lani conway

"This East Bay-based pop-up is home to some of the crispiest, most caramelized smashburgers in the Bay. The meaty knockouts are super thin, sandwiched between soft potato rolls and topped with everything from classic grilled onions and pickles to jalapeños and bean sprouts. Devouring the phở-inspired burger before losing your voice screaming “HOT TO GO” at Chappell Roan should be high on your to-do list. " - julia chen 1
"Smish Smash makes some of the best burgers in the Bay, with crispy, caramelized beef patties sandwiched between soft potato rolls. The roving pop-up (they’re primarily in the East Bay) also serves creative specials—like an topped with yuzu kosho and ponzu aioli, or the phở-inspired with jalapeño and bean sprouts. Spin around ten times, throw a dart at the menu, and it'll always land on something great—but get the Signature with two beef patties, house sauce, cheese, pickles, and grilled onions when in doubt. Check their for specials and where to order. " - Julia Chen
"I learned that the Neptune will require proof of vaccination for entry to all performances beginning Thursday, August 12; attendees who are not fully vaccinated, including children under 12, may instead provide verification of a negative COVID test taken within 72 hours, and patrons and employees must wear masks inside except while actively eating or drinking, regardless of vaccination status." - Gabe Guarente
