El Mono | Fresh Flavors of Peru
Looking for a good Mexican spot, this is it. The Super Suizo is on point, and some spots stay open for late night cravings after a night out on the town. Definitely don't want to miss this spot!

Looking for a brunch spot in the town, portal gets pretty busy on the weekends with lines out the door. You have beautiful views of Lake Merritt, great drinks and delicious food! Highly recommend to go with friends, on a date or solo!
Portal · Oakland, California
Fairly new sandwich shop, serving a variety of delicious sandwiches. Grab a quick sandwich, chips and drink and head up a couple of blocks to Lake Merritt. My favorite sandwich is the Hot Boy, definitely don't want to skip on this place.
Brother's Deli & Co · Oakland, California
Looking for a quick bite to eat, they serve pizza and beer. It is a little bit on the pricer side, you get great service, refreshing beer and delicious pizza. They are across the street from a laundry mat, so if you're in the area stop by!
