Plank

Finally I find a bbq that doesn't burn the meat. Ordered a smoke shack sampler plate. Big, messy, juicy, flavorful, finger locking good beef and babyback ribs and jalapeño sausages. The xsausauge too was delicious. So much so I'm going back there tonight. HoorayWill definitely be going back.

Plank is such a cute place! I don't go to the East bay often but we had a team offsite there few months ago during the heat wave and this was such a cute place!The servers were super nice and made sure we took advantage of the happy hour menu and make sure we put in our orders before the cut off time.The food itself was surprisingly good, and although it was all small bites, we just kept ordering off the HH menu and got so full! We were going to bowl after eating but the lanes were all full so we called it a night at the end, but the vibes were there! It was hot and warm that night so it was very chill and relaxing to sit there, yap and just eat and drink the evening away.

Came here for "Happy Hour" on a Monday -- all I can say is, SAVE YOUR MONEY. You're better off just getting drinks and then eating elsewhere or ordering straight from the main menu. The HH food was basic and definitely not $9 worth. The tacos reminded me of the $1 tacos from Taco Bell, the nachos had no meat in them and the sliders were $9 for 2... definitely not a "happy hour" -- also service was horrible. One of the workers who was wearing a beanie just seemed like she didn't want to be there and kept saying our server would be right with us but then kept coming back like she would take our order but then didn't... it seemed like a few other tables were also dealing with service issues too. We came on a Monday and it was not busy so not sure why it's so hard to ensure people's food get to them in a timely manner. Also Plank definitely used to validate parking earlier this year and now they don't, so just save your money and go elsewhere I give it 2 stars for location and the beautiful sunset

I was out w/my granddaughter and decided to goto Plank. We ended a fun filled day there. Crispy pork belly 4outta5 -full of flavor. The bed of slaw was unappealing (I don't like slaw tho)Pepperoni Pizza 4outta5 -Gbaby loved it! I could've used a little more meat Bruschetta 5outta5 -Absolutely delicious! Garlic Fries 3outta5 -Not enough garlic. They're garlic fries, you can never have too much garlic. Prime rib Sliders 1outta5 -I only took one bite. The slider buns were soft and sweet. The prime rib lacked flavor & was chewy. A jus on the side would go a long way. Arcade 4outta5 -Relatively nice selection of games...Overall we had a great time!

(Came for restaurant not bowling)So I heard this place wasn't good but I was hungry and it was close so came here to get food to go. I will say service wasn't great but wasn't bad either.Other than that, we SLAMMED our food. It was soooo good. Flavorful, big portion, fun options. Extremely satisfied and love that its a quick and easy place to grab a bite. Ordered: Plank Burger, Chicken Nachos, Tri Tip Dip Stack, Sweet Potato Fries, Garlic Fries.Forsuree will be back. Food was delish, I'm literally still full!

Been there a few times over the years. Located in the Jack London square area. Always loved the atmosphere. BUT yesterday was an exception. First, the inside with zero air condition was untenable. Outside at the bar was cooler, but we were not exactly the correct color, so we were ignored. Had to go to the bar to order for ourselves. Insult to injury, my credit card was hacked. Someone stole my card info in seconds. It was later that night it was used in Oakland and San Leandro in person? IDK how that works as I have the card in my hand but that's what the credit card company said. Beware!!!

Food was good! Bartenders are great but they accidentally forgot to get our food. They remade it since the one they had made got cold.Drinks are good! Got the old fashioned and the Plank Sunrise. Both were nice! This is a fun place to go for a celebration with friends.

Manager white lady with dark brown wavy hair, huge bitch. Arcade machine didnt give me my change, $50 or a receipt. She was so rude and not helpful. Service was also bad. The server was in a bad mood.

Great place! Mostly kind staff. Cool dj on the weekends! And they have good deals. Cool place to watch the game or bowl with family/friends.

Just went for bowling and a drink. Didn't get to bowl and the food was lackluster and the drinks were ok. It def gets crowded here though and where there crowd there mess.
