Angeline's Louisiana Kitchen

Noodle bar with mixed Asian flavors, where you dress your noodles or rice however you like, to eat in or carry out.

Classic diner downtown serving milkshakes and fries, a casual choice for a family meal.

A giant children's section downtown with storytime and artist-led sessions, and it costs nothing.

Simple Mexican cooking built around fresh ingredients and fire-roasted salsas made by hand, with lots of them to choose from.

University campus with paths to scooter on, lawns to run around, and Strawberry Creek running past Sather Gate and a eucalyptus grove, for dipping toes in.

Wood-fired pizza on a big two-level garden patio that forgives kid volume, with downtown Berkeley bustle all around. The grown-ups get good beer; the kids get room to be kids.
