I dig Jim's omelletes!! Huge and tasty. Also my breakfast venue of choice. I like the "retro-ness" of Ole's on Park St, but find their breakfasts to be the usual "Denny's" type options (and portions). I haven't tried the ones on Webster yet.
I must say, for as small as Alameda is, the sheer amount of amazing places to eat is mind-boggling.
Sushi House, Bacci, Toomies Thai, La Pinata, Oteaz, Jim's the pies at New Zealander...great stuff.
Oakland has tons of choices in each dept but they're all much of the same, None really stands up above the rest. For example, nearly every Sushi place in Oakland/ Berkeley serves the same thing - mounds of rice, with specs of fish. The Suhi rolls at Sushi House (where Park St meets the beach) are simply incredible - mounds of FRESH fish inside and on top!!
The same is true for Thai food etc...except pizza. Most that I've seen on the Island looks pretty standard fare - haven't tried them though.
Bacci Italian Deli 2 blocks from FI is also mind-boggling. A 6 month old deli that feels like it's been there for decades withthe most delicious hot panini's I've ever tasted. Take a hike A.G Ferrari!!
