union street french café - (Near Pasadena, CA)

Celine El Khouri For me, this is the best Arab/levantine food in the bay. As a Lebanese vegan, i felt emotional because of how good this food was and how many delicious vegan options there were. I haven’t had Kuftah in a long time, and the fact i got to taste a vegan version that tasted identical to the kuftah i grew up eating in Lebanon was so incredible. All the food was incredible. Everyone there was also so sweet and welcoming, service was fast, and the place is beautiful. Cant wait to go back for more.

Adam Sandoval You can’t be blamed for not knowing this place serves great Mexican food as all the signage says “Sunshine Station” with the tagline “best darn dogs in the state”. Branding aside, you will find AMAZING taqueria food here. We ordered Al pastor, and chile verde burritos. The Al pastor was top tier, however, the chile verde was one of the best I have ever had. You could taste that the tomatillo sauce was cooked in house, not store bought and the pork was fresh. Salsa bar was fresh and stocked with all the staples. Pico de gallo was firm, and the sauces all had tremendous flavor and respectable heat. All of this and The price is right. Big draw back is that there are no tables, all bar style stools, so not ideal seating for a group. If they put some tables outside with umbrellas, I think that would put this place on top. There a few things that they could do to improve the experience but the food is already excellent. Service was great with the cashier even giving me some background on the recipe of the chile verde. Show Sergio’s some love and the food will love you back.

Melanie D It was so delicious, I forgot to take a photo, haha. I got the Caprese Panini and all parts of the sandwich were spectacular. The mozzarella was cut thick and the tomatoes and basil were so fresh. The sourdough bread they use is also perfectly tangy with a nice softness. Irene, the owner, was there that day and was very kind and attentive. I dont come to the area very often, but I will make an effort to come more often now that Caffe Soleil opened! The shop beautifully decorated, but it is small. I recommend coming on a clear and mild day to enjoy their cute outdoor seating or planning to order takeout.

Jessica Ferrell We stayed at Bahia for five days, and enjoying every single service. The dockside has an offer. We brunch with Patrick who absolutely nailed every point of service. And while the avocado toast with added smoked salmon is insanely ridiculous expensive, it is also amazingly good and totally worth it. No regrets. We had dinner with Ethan, who made sure that even when a questionable shrimp roll was delivered he corrected the situation immediately. The pool restaurant was closed one of the days that we were there, and we did take out from dockside, while they were not super ready for the system to go into place. It seemed… Mara made every effort to ensure that our order was exactly what we needed The thing about dioxide is, it’s an absolutely fantastic on-site restaurant option that serves three meals a day. Is it expensive? Yes. But you also have a stunning view of the dock exceptional service and fantastic food. So is it worth it? Absolutely. We liked it so much. We bought a $40 T-shirt with the name on it from the gift shop. If you find yourself at the resort and you’re thinking, oh gosh, I’m really hungry, just go to dockside. Problem solved.

Sara Rexx The food was absolutely delicious. We got garlic chicken Mac salad and potato salad. I would recommend this place to anyone and will definitely be coming back here again.

Nat Rod First time here and thoroughly impressed. We were served by Steven and he was very friendly and informative. We got the Birria Burger 9/10 comes with consome but it was a little difficult to dip because the size of the burger. A good problem I suppose. Seasonal Nutella Smore French Toast 9/10. For coffee we got the Abuelita Chocolate Mocha 10/10 and Mazapan Latte 9/10 wish it had a bit more Mazapan. Large portions and great overall for the price. The ambiance was great and we were seated very quickly. Clean place and friendly staff. We are excited to come back and would recommend
