Loved relaxed atmosphere but appreciated cleanliness not typically seen in oakland restaurants, esp. Pitt. We were seated in 3 or 4 minutes. Our waitress was cheerful and professional. We got a half-pound burger, delicious shrimp and garlic bread sandwich, a big fish sandwich, and TWO HUGE fish tacos for under 8 bucks. Incredible serving sizes for the price, had to take the second taco home. The waitress simply proclaimed, ""that's how we do things at the Union Grill, huge servings of great food at a great price!"" Some folks aren't used to the oakland atmosphere, you have to roll with it if waitstaff is busy... such is life. great for college kids and casual dining. For the complainers, we don't really want your type around our great restaurants anyway! PLEASE DO stay away. P.S. it should be common place to say thank you, even for water... way to be professional.
Pros: Friendly service, Great value
Cons: Parking can be tough
