short hop across the estuary in Alameda, Ark Chinese Restaurant is the kind of hidden gem locals fiercely defend. The hand-pulled noodles are the headliner — chewy, springy, and worth ordering in the hot and sour soup at least once in your life. The xiao long bao have a quiet following of their own, and the menu spans both northern Chinese and Cantonese with hand-cut dumplings, sweet and spicy wings, and beef noodle soup that all deliver. Decor is unfussy, prices are honest, and the food does all the talking.
