Voted best pizza in America by Yelp. No reservations. They only make one flavor a day. Just go and pick up a pizza. Sometimes they have live music playing. This is delectable thin crust pizza. The Cheeseboard Bakery next door has the largest cheese counter just about anywhere. Go and sample cheeses from around the world, and enjoy some fresh baked goodies.

Fantastic Chicago style deep dish pizza. Don't get the thin crust pizza here, go for the deep dish! Zachary's has such a devoted following that their fans create art about Zachary's that the restaurant displays on their walls. Zachary's is collective owned and they have several locations throughout the area, including Rockridge, Grand Avenue, Berkeley, Pleasant Hill and Pleasanton.

My favorite bakery in the Bay Area. And it's because of one sole reason: they figured out how to bake a croissant, bacon and an egg all in one! It's a modern wonder of the world and you just need to try it.

My go-to Mediterranean food in Alameda. I always get the Tahina Bowl, but the Cali Bowl is excellent too. The bowls have so much variety. Mouthwatering, fresh, and nutritious too. They make the food SO fast. Order and it's ready in 10 minutes or less. Just pull up curb side on Buena Vista Avenue, hop out, grab your food, and go!

Enjoy a wide sand beach in the heart of the San Francisco Bay Area. Sweeping views of the San Francisco skyline, kiteboarders, and California's famous sunsets. What's not to love? Since it's San Francisco Bay, the waves are very small and the water level is shallow almost a football field out of shore, so it's a very family-friendly beach.

The very best way to enter San Francisco for sightseeing! The ferry offers 360 degree views of the bay and a front row seat to the San Francisco skyline. Ride under the Bay Bridge, soak in the sun and stiff breeze, or enjoy the ride inside. There's even a bar on the boat. It's a very relaxing and stress free ride. You'll arrive at the Ferry Building with all the amazing food stands and businesses it boasts.
