LocoL (Finally) Opens

LocoL, Daniel Patterson and Roy Choi's new fast food restaurant with a cause, will open in Oakland on Wednesday. Their mission is to provide healthy, affordable, and delicious food to underserved communities. This will be the second location (the first opened in Watts), and the next location is slated to open later this year in the Tenderloin. // Open daily, 7am-8pm, 2214 Broadway St. (Oakland), welocol.com



Bellota Opens

Bellota is Spanish for acorn, which is what delicious Iberican pigs dine on and also happens to be the new Spanish restaurant from Absinthe Group.

Ozumo Launches Spring Menu

Ozumo has launched a new spring menu, and it's delicious.
