Southie
Southie is the more casual sister restaurant to the wildly popular Wood Tavern next door. Southie, named after the Boston neighborhood, bills itself as having an "East Coast mentality, West Coast sensibility. The specialty here is all things sandwiches, but not just your typical deli fare. At Southie, you're likely to find sandwiches like a Shaved Porchetta sandwich with Fennel, Avocado and Olive Puree and a Mustard Vinaigrette, or the "Spicy Hog" Pulled Pork sandwich with Pickled Jalapeños, Slaw, and Lime Aioli. There is also a small selection of soups and salads, along with desserts like Bacon Infused Chocolate Pudding. In the evenings, Southie switches from 'wiches to small plates like Fried Baby Artichokes, Sauteed Mussels with Chorizo, Ahi Tuna Panzanella Salad, and larger plates like Roasted Flat Iron Steak, Fresh Tagliatelle Carbonara, and of course a few of their signature sandwiches. Southie also has a selection of wines on tap and bottled beers.

Already an institution in the East Bay, Bakesale Betty has local families, hipsters, and sweet teeth forming a line out the door for delicious baked goods. Everything tastes great, but the words you'll hear coming from the lips of everybody waiting are "fried chicken sandwich." The unbelievably filling sandwich is piled high with delicious fried chicken covered with a faintly spicy, not at all soggy jalapeno coleslaw. Other favorites are the carrot cake cupcakes, the strawberry shortcake, and the bake-at-home chicken pot pies. The staff, including Betty, the eponymous owner (you can spot her by the blue wig), are all friendly and more than willing to make recommendations to newcomers. Don't let a long line put you off- they usually move fast, and people waiting to order get free cookies and lemonade. No seating inside can be a problem, but outside are stools and ironing boards serving as makeshift tables. Stop by and see what all the fuss is about.
All meats cooked in house
