TallBoy - A Neighborhood Joint

"This bar came on the scene in 2019 with a goal to cater to late-night appetites. Wings are the main game here, though there are a couple of other options like a burger. Food is served until last call every night of the week, open as late as anywhere between midnight and 3 a.m. depending on the day." - Missy Frederick

"A self-proclaimed “martini dive bar,” Tallboy is one of Oakland’s newest and hottest late-night spots. While its designation as a dive bar is certainly up for debate, its martini-centric drinks pair perfectly with its menu centered around “amped up” vegan hot dogs. Chefs from the James Beard Award-nominated Lion Dance Café offer zhuzhed-up vegan dogs topped with a wild assortment of toppings. The Lion Dancing Dog comes loaded with sambal mayo, crushed peanuts, fried shallots, cilantro, soy sauce-pickled jalapenos, and lime, while the Cheese in the Trap is topped with spicy kimchi, gochujang aioli, scallions, sesame, crisp noodles, and American cheese. The kitchen stays open until 11:30 p.m. on the weekends." - Lena Park
