When making a mid-day trip from San Francisco to the Capitol area you could always get a quick bite at a fast food restaurant. Why bother when there is a great restaurant that always provides good food at a fair price? Black Oak always provides this experience. Yesterday the other half enjoyed a good-sized appetizer salad with the dressing of... More

I give this place main credit for the absence of music. It can be very irritating to hear usually cheap kind of primitive music being played in such type of diners and so loudly that you can't simply listen to your own collection or concentrate on reading.

Great Breakfasts, good service, local type place which has been around for decades. Consistent quality food and service.

I remember 40 years ago when my family would trek up here from the city for a day outing and would always eat lunch here. Nothing's changed.

Still the food is passable and... More
