It’s been quite a while since I’ve gone to CreAsian, the Asian fusion restaurant on Macarthur in San Leandro. I never think of going there, mostly because it’s not particularly cheap, not particularly child-friendly, and when I go out with Mike on a date, I prefer to go to a new place. Still, I’ve gone to CreAsian a few times for drinks/dessert – and I like it for that purpose.
I went there Monday night with five friends on a “Mom’s night out” sort of thing, just for drinks and dessert, and it was pretty good. They have an extensive list of mixed drinks, in addition to coffees with a variety of alcohol and hard liquors. Their dessert selection is somewhat limited, and I suspect they don’t make their desserts in house. Their creme brule cheesecake was OK, what I had, was OK but nothing spectacular. People did like their fried calamari and tuna tartare, and the pineapple fried rice I had was pretty enjoyable. Their food presentation is quite good.
The atmosphere, however, is a tad weird. Service is competent yet on the cold side, and I never manage to feel completely comfortable there. Another minus is that it closes at 10 PM on weekdays.
Still, it’s not a bad place for an occasional night out.
