This is the non-take out, catering only location. There is no restaurant. You have to go to the San Francisco location to eat the food.

UPDATE: this was my number one spot to eat, and toward the start of Shelter in Place they shut their unique Oakland area and chose to keep their as of late opened SF area all things being equal. I know I'm in good company to say that that was so disillusioning, I actually contemplate it constantly... the selling out!! Indeed I'm angry. Doesn't the SF tech swarm get enough!? ?Where do I by any chance beginning... Reem's is my #1. Every one of my companions realize I'm generally down for Reem's! Reem's for eternity!!! From the Pali Cali wrap to the manoushe, the kanefe to the halawa latte, I've given everything a shot the menu to some degree once, which makes the occasional contributions substantially more invigorating! It's in every case new, exceptional and delectable. Additionally professional tip: you can purchase their AMAZING pita bread to-go 3/$5! I generally get some for home and a tub of labneh!

We stopped there on the way to the airport and had a quick dinner. I will definitely go back one day when I have more time to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. The food is delicious and service is fast and efficient. We had mana'ish ( plural for manouche) with different toppings and the baba ghanoush. Everything had a slightly different twist from the flavors I'm used to, but it was all delicious.

middle eastern food, awesome. The place has an awesome feel to it. Kinda of like a place in Houston that I enjoyed.

I wish you a great times my sis ?

It's been awhile since I've been back to Scheherazade. The restaurant was being renovated for about 2 months due to a change in ownership. I was pleasantly surprised to see familiar faces on my most recent visit. It seems like the new owner decided to keep the best staff members on hand, an excellent move. I love what they've done to the interior, a massive improvement from the per-existing decor. Everything seems to be new and improved here, 10/10 will return.

Where do I even start... Reem’s is my #1. All my friends know I’m always down for Reem’s! Reem’s forever!!! From the Pali Cali wrap to the manoushe, the kanefe to the halawa latte, I’ve tried everything on the menu at least once, which makes the seasonal offerings that much more exciting! It’s always fresh, unique and tasty. Also pro tip: you can buy their AMAZING pita bread to-go 3/$5! I always buy some for home and a tub of labneh!

I was driving home from the City and asked Google to help me find the restaurant and I ended up on an extensive tour of the Fruitvale neighborhood of Oakland. Some of the dead ends I turned down are intimidating. Finally I found the right block and a parking space. The Fruitvale BART station is bright and it was a sunny day. I found Seem's California or Seem's Bakery. It is very cool with indoor and outdoor seating. I approached the counter to order and since it was after the lunch hour some items were sold out. I found the food familiar and unfamiliar. Alas, I cannot eat dairy/cheese. So I ended up with a flat bread with loads of thyme. I should have added tomatoes or something. It was underwhelming.
