Communitē Table

Was in the mood for something new in my neighborhood, so I just drove down MacArthur. Love "my" new find of Communite Table! Guess it's been here for a while, just new to me. It's a beautiful location, with a lovely menu and staff. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich. It was over the top delicious and their fries are like no other! Ended my visit with the goat cheesecake, delicious. It was a fun spot to treat myself on my day off. Will be back to try more in this gem of a place. :)

This place checks all the boxes except one: Tasty food. The service is good: friendly waitstaff who are attentive and prompt. The space is clean and bright with big windows all around. It's a small, local business owned and run by women. I just wish the food were a bit more flavorful. It's okay to have casual, homemade choices, but I find the dishes bland and uninspired.

I wish this place was open on the weekends because I am such a huge fan of their berry bread pudding. Don't let the texture fool you because it is seriously one of the best I've ever had, and I've been to New Orleans so I know delicious bread pudding. They make it in house. I probably should be taking more time to write about their food but because I am so obsessed with the bread pudding, I will keep coming back here just for that.

Healthy and delicious lunch and dinner options and a great price point. Home style cooking that leaves you feeling great. Wasn't a huge fan of the fried chicken sandwich, as it was a little too much breading and there are much better ones to be found around Oakland. Love their other options though, and great fries!

Stopped by after picking up my monthly supply of Peters Kettle Corn. I'm not sure why I always forget about this place but I will be back again soon becaise let me just say they have one of the best beet salads I have ever had. I always compare the beet salads I have out to the ones that I make at home. Nothing compares to how good the beet salad I make at home turns out. Making a beet salad at home however, is always a pain, it takes all day to roast them and then leaves my hands all stained. Well I guess there is no need now as I can stop in here and get my fix. I would have never thought to add olives to my beet salad but it is for sure a winning combination. Their goat cheesecake was also excellent.

My family came for the first time to eat dinner on my wife's birthday. We were the only table in the joint on a gloomy Thursday evening. The staff were considerate and very attentive - especially as we had two kids: an energetic 4yo and a 1yo whom we hadn't taken out to eat before. (I'd forgotten that restaurants have high chairs until we were offered one. It's been a long pandemic.) Like, my older child dropped her spoon, and as the echoes faded away, someone leaned over and asked kindly if we needed a new utensil. And they brought us an extra plate and smaller tableware, and offered to separate a portion of the soup (and cut the matzo ball into quarters!). It was lovely to feel cared for as a family.Food: we ordered from the Hanukkah menu, and were not disappointed. The brisket was tender and the fried chicken crisp, and the mashed potatoes were great with both kinds of gravy. The roasted broccoli was maybe a bit too done. The chicken soup had a deep, smoky stock and tender bits of carrot; latkes were pretty standard (but since when is that a bad thing?). My (currently) picky eater ate from both entrees and asked for seconds (plus soup), and the baby ate her share of applesauce and matzo ball gleefully. The birthday spouse enjoyed the brisket and I shared my generous portion of chicken. Since they were closing (at 7:30 - that's early!), and the littlest was falling asleep in the high chair, we ordered a selection of desserts to go. It was so much less stressful than I'd anticipated. We'll definitely be by again to pick up food to go.

First, there is a parking lot. Unheard of. We stopped in for a bite. They had the indoor area reserved for a community event but the patio was lovely. I had the fish and chips which were crazy good. Not oily. Perfect. We got some salads and cookies as well. They had some really tasty and reasonable wines by the glass. Service was friendly. We'll absolutely be back.

Hidden gem. Home style diner with eclectic and healthy oriented and delicious and varied menu. The fries are the best and don't leave without dessert. The cauliflower soup was excellent, great tuna sandwich and beer and wine choices are selective but top notch.

We really like many of the goodies here like the beet or carrot salads and the lamb burger (yum). The Hub is particularly fond of their macaroons. This 2-star review is specifically pointed at their chicken pot pie.We recently bought their frozen whole chicken pot pie and baked it in the oven per instructions. We were so looking forward to a classic pot pie full of chicken, peas, carrots, onions etc. in a creamy sauce with a crispy crust. Imagine our surprise and disappointment upon cutting it open to find this chunky greenish glop filling inside instead (see pix).Granted the crust was good and they were not stingy with the chicken pieces but this is NOT a chicken pot pie. Not a classic one anyway.I had to doctor it by making my own béchamel (white sauce) to which I also added a splash of sherry. Folded my sauce with this glop before we could eat it.Oh....and the bread pudding is drier than we like. More crème pâtissière, please.

It said there were vegetarian dishes, but salad and mac & cheese minimally qualify. Even the borscht had an overwhelming chicken stock.
