June’s Pizza

Craig Murli opened June’s Pizza in March 2020 and, likely with some thanks to early pandemic chaos, the unpermitted business operated for more than a year before being shut down by Alameda County officials. It was more than enough time for Murli to win a following for his wood-fired pizzas made with naturally leavened sourdough crust. Now, June’s Pizza is back and full above board. Murli officially opened his new West Oakland brick-and-mortar space on Sept. 20, as the San Francisco Chronicle reported. June’s Pizza, 2408 Mandela Parkway, Oakland.  

Oh G Burger

Montclair’s newest burger spot, in the same location as the shuttered Flippers Gourmet Burgers, celebrated its grand opening on Sept. 22. Oh G Burger is from the same people beyond Ohgane Korean BBQ in Oakland. The menu mixes the smashburger trend with Korean flavors, and the signature Oh G sauce is a kimchi-infused thousand island dressing. The restaurant serves six signature burgers, including an option for an Impossible burger, and sides include French fries, onion rings and tater tots. Oh G Burger, 2062 Mountain Blvd., Oakland. 

Overlook at Tilden

The new restaurant at the Tilden Golf Course celebrated its grand opening on Monday, Sept. 23. The restaurant features indoor and outdoor seating areas, including a batch of adirondack chairs surrounding a fire pit. The hours are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily with happy hour Monday through Thursday from 3-5 p.m. The menu includes a breakfast sandwich and burrito, crispy brussel sprouts, Korean fried chicken sliders, and the “grizzly burger,” a patty made from a blend of brisket and chuck and topped with provolone cheese, crispy haystack onions, maple bacon jam, house blackberry BBQ sauce.
