“The station is decently clean relative to other BART stations I’ve been at. I also like that there’s a section that provides protection from the rain although if it’s a particularly windy rain then you’re screwed. In my month and a half of living here the trains have always been on time and run frequently during rush hours. The best part about the station though is the views of SF and the sunrise/sunset.”

“Stu Flashman has been an excellent adviser and staunch ally in our efforts to help protect open space and parks in Martinez. He has given unstintingly of his time and expertise over the last five years. His extensive knowledge and decades of experience have been critical to the success of our referendum, our initiative and the several complex legal issues in which he has represented us. He has been tireless in his support, giving us sage counsel and representing us before our City Council and in court on numerous occasions. In the face of our status as novices, he has been endlessly patient in helping us craft the best possible strategies and responses, resulting in our being able to stand up to strong opposition, and achieve positive results for our community. We could not have succeeded without his help, and we are very grateful for his working with us. Our group’s goals were to oppose our City Council’s conversion of a major parcel from open space to housing, and to put into law protections for all open space in Martinez in the future. Our efforts included: (1) a referendum to force a public vote on the City Council’s conversion of open space to market-rate housing, (2) an initiative to require that future such conversions get voter approval, and, (3) numerous legal actions including a SLAPP suit and appeal, a lawsuit to keep the City Council from rewriting 43 years of history, and a City legal challenge to the initiative. Stu was in the middle of every one of these efforts. He, along with his co-counsel, defended us in the SLAPP suit brought by the developer and owner to try to stop us, and won both the case and the appeal (also getting the decision on appeal published as legal precedent). He guided us in preparing our referendum petition, and helped us through every step of the referendum process. He helped us write a much more complicated initiative measure, and not only led us through that labyrinthine process, but defended us in court when the City Council sued us trying to invalidate the initiative. He, along with his co-counsel, was instrumental in our lawsuit against the City Council’s rewriting the history of the parcel they were trying to convert to market-rate housing. He was also central to the mediation that came about to address all these actions. The mediation has resulted in a master agreement between the City, the developer/owner and us which includes, among other things, a new City park. Stu is now actively advising us on implementing the agreement. Stu has played many roles for us, and been excellent in all of them. We are lucky to have had him working with us. We could not have gotten this far without him, and are sincerely grateful for his help.”

“I remember when Cactus opened years ago - it was a super-fresh take on Mexican fare. I often get the crispy tacos with grilled veggies—so satisfying. Quesadillas are nice and cheesy, and the corn tamales are warm and comforting. The food has stood the test of time. I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad meal here.”

“Had a great dim sum lunch at Becky's. Portions were on the smaller side and not a complete selection, but it was good. The waiter was nice and pleasant and the place was clean.”

“Excellent food but not a great pick if you are in a hurry. I had the fried chicken sandwich which was amazing. Super crispy fried chicken even with the slaw on the sandwich with it. Fries are nice and crispy, you get your choice of regular, curly or sweet potato and I got the regular which were delicious. Hubs had the regular burger on a gluten free bun with his pick of fixings and sweet potato fries. The burger came out on a regular bun, when I asked about (it looked just like my regular bun) they whisked it away and returned with a gluten free bun. Burger was cooked nicely and was a legit, house made patty. Sweet potato fries were also delicious. Great service, food was just a bit slow but we weren't in any hurry so not a big deal. They also have a nice looking cocktail menu, good wine and beer selections.”

“One of the best date night vegan / vegetarian restaurant in Oakland area. This is type of restaurant in which you don’t know what you are eating but it always tastes fresh and yummy. Even their free freshly baked bread and spread tasted really delicious. Date with pistachio as appetizer was yummy. Risotto cake and tamales as main entree was great and enough serving size. We will definitely go again.”
