It’s no secret that San Francisco is a foodie’s dream destination, but Oakland should also definitely be on your restaurant radar. In the past few years, the culinary scene has really taken off, with artisan bakeries, organic eateries, and craft cocktail bars popping up on seemingly every corner. So whether you’re eager to challenge your palette or simply craving the comforts of home, order at your convenience with UberEATS and customize every aspect of your meal.

Here are five Oakland restaurants you can order through UberEATS that do not disappoint:

Barcote Ethiopian Restaurant

Can’t afford a trip to Ethiopia? Oakland has the next best thing. While Barcote Ethiopian Restaurant is relatively new to the food scene, it’s already a local favorite. Co-owner and cook Fikrte Tequame, who hails from Addis Ababa, practices both traditional and modern cooking styles. Whet your appetite with their vegetarian samosa with whole lentils, garlic, jalapeño, and onion filled in phyllo-dough before moving on to their sautéed shrimp tips sprinkled with fresh garlic.

Hot Italian

North Beach might be home to some of San Francisco’s most famous pizzerias but don’t underestimate Oakland’s Hot Italian. Instead of sticking to classic Italian recipes, owners Andrea Lepore and Fabrizio Cercatore take a more modern approach that appeals to Oakland’s urban lifestyle. Whether you’re ordering in for two or catering to a group of your best pals, the dishes here are meant to be shared. Kick off your night with their piatto di salumi e formaggi meat and cheese plate before chowing down on a large pie.

Mac Khai

This small, family-run joint serves up some of Oakland’s finest Vietnamese and Asian Fusion cuisine. If you’re missing the exotic flavors of Southeast Asia, Mac Khai will quickly become your new home away from home. Warm up with their spicy beef noodle soup, served with green onion, cilantro, and bean sprouts. Many of their larger dishes (like their garlic noodles) are customizable via UberEATS when you order. Just select your choice of protein via the app and you’re all set. As a bonus, they’re also open until 11pm.

Calavera

You don’t have to go all the way to the Mission District to indulge in authentic Mexican fare. Oakland has a handful of top-rated Mexican joints including Calavera. Split an order of carnitas tacos with braised beef shank, Spanish white onion, and salsa verde de aguacate before digging into your entrees. You’ll also find a fair share of Mexican staples with a new twist, like the cochinita pibil tacos, which is baby pig with sour orange marinade and Mayan axiote rub.

The Octopus Literary Salon

Oakland has no shortage of vegan and gluten-free-friendly sandwich shops, but The Octopus Literary Salon has a special secret sauce that keeps people coming back for more. Start off with their Thai-style cold tofu salad with shredded cabbage, carrots, peppers, herbs, peanuts, and red curry peanut dressing. For something a bit more tart, opt for their apple brie sandwich served on a baguette. As the name might suggest, the space also hosts various literary events throughout the year but if you can’t swing by in person, order via UberEATS.
