I came to Wooden Table for the first time today. There are so many flavor choices for the alfajores! I got the original and espresso and both were delicious but the espresso was my favorite. I tried the iced yerba mate brew with rose flavor and added milk. So good! The barista forgot to add coffee to my friends mocha and while seated outside, my friend mentioned the mocha was watery and not good. We didnt go inside or say anything, but within 5 minutes, the barista came outside with a new mocha and apologized. She stated she thought she forgot to add coffee to the mocha. This type of service is so rare now. Ill definitely return to try more treats!

Food good, service not good. I called to place an order for pick up and was told to do it online. The online confirmation gave me a pick up time. When I arrived to the cafe after said time (with no other customers in it), they hadnt even looked at my order yet. To cap it off, neither of the two workers thanked me.

I had my first Mate experience during their soft opening! Their alfajores are the best! My personal favorite is mint chocolate flavor, which pair perfectly with Mate. I love that they bring the authentic Argentina experience to Oakland!

Its my first time ordering from this café and I am definitely coming back. There customer service is amazing, and they gave me an iced decaf americano it was so good. It wasnt so caffeinated compared to the other places where I have gotten americanos from. Also their empanadas are amazing! Will most definitely be coming back to get their iced americano again!

GREAT service and delicious coffee. It would be a waste of your visit to come and dont take an alfajor - or even better, get 6.

Service good, food kinda sucks. I tried the empanada, chai latte, and alfajores cookies. Empanada is dry, chai latte seems to taste like watered down milk, and the cookies were decent but they are $2.15 each and the biscuit part is a little dry; Ive had better. Go to Cafe 389 in Adams Point for the best chai and empanada.

Authentic and delicious Argentinian food produced by people I care to support. Citabria and partner opened in November and I only wish I had found them sooner! Eager to return! Alfajores and empanadas were so good! And Citabria is pleasant and generous!

Excellent and authentic empanadas. A must visit in Bay Area! If you’re a traveler or consider yourself a foodie, this is the spot! My wife and I tried 5 different kinds and loved them all. The spicy beef and the breakfast ones were our favorite.

Wow. An Uptown eats place that actually focuses on us on the client side of the counter. Refreshing to say the least as Uptown becomes more dormitory suburb by the day. Workers are bright and friendly in a light filled space of uncomplicated decor, excellent coffee and oh so tasty things to nibble and sup on. (Yep, they arent the size of fast-food serves but oh so yummy - there has to some time for art). Brilliant and friendly.

I LOVE Wooden Table. The Yerba Mate and the pasteries..... mmmm. Honestly cant get enough. I do wish there was more seating because its almost impossible to find a place to sit inside but other than that I have no qualms.

Ive try their alfajores mostly at cafes and pop-up events. Today Ive the opportunity to try other flavors as well as empanadas. The soon-to-be future staff were wonderful assisting people with questions while multitasking. Since everything is free of charge, its each person for themselves just pick what you want and enjoy. Each alfajores taste just like how I remember them sweet and natural nothing artificial. Best ones are soft, cakey and crumbly this means almost every single one of them lol. Its that good. Empanadas were also good with each one cut in half, I went for spicy beef, chicken and feta spinach. Sadly no conitos today, but thats alright. Theyll be opening soon and Ill be there waiting. This place is highly recommended for those that never had alfajores before.
