All the food was very salty and heavy flavored. Even the sides that was in the entrée. They was no balance on the food flavors. The Oxtail Stew has good flavor but too salty. Oyo Pepper Pot was okay but very salty as well and it was just the short rib, no bread, salad or anything to accompany it. The Paella’s were salty and wasn’t very good, but the seafood paella was better than the Paella Oyo. Jerk Pork Shoulder had food flavor but again too salty. The bread was fresh but doughy. It was pricey and I don’t think the food was worth that price. It was disappointing, the presentation of the food looked food but not the flavors/seasoning due to its saltiness. I would not be coming back.
I brought my aunt here for her birthday everyone else loved their food I didn't enjoy mine. I had the vegan paella the doubles. I just feel like with oxtail' stew should come with rice who eats stew by itself. So my Cousin ordered the rice after the fact and ended up having to wait almost a half an hour just for rice to come. The mango lemonade was great.The atmosphere was lovely. Need help with the service. Just be prepared to wait. They had like 3 people working outside and inside it just takes too long to get your food and to get items in between and your check.
Love this place. Hands down best restaurant in Pleasanton. Great tasting fresh food. A considerable amount of vegan options. I like the street doubles with jack fruit, vegan paella with coconut yogurt and coconut ice cream. They just added jerk tofu and it’s the best tofu I ever had! So much flavor.
One of Pleasanton’s finest restaurant for sure. Why exotic Guyanese fusion cuisine that should please every palate. Very attentive service and a full bar. What else can you ask for? And yes, the nicest chef cum owner Maurice and his son are real delightful people.

I was at Oyo today with my husband. It was our first time and we had a great experience. We ordered the famous pumpkin soup which was delicious, the Oxe was also very good, rice with coconut not so good, delicious dessert too, fair price, delicious food. we will
20% tips is already included in the bill and taxed on top of it. So it's more like 22%. Food quality is acceptable, but there's nothing special. Of all the paella we ordered, only Paella del Negra tastes a little better.
A MUST when in Pleasanton. Delicious Caribbean Food. Service is outstanding. Go and get the fried green plantains to share! D...E..L...I...C...I...O...U....S!

The paella oyo was delicious! Plenty of patio seating. Immersive indoor vibes. Good service. Only one restroom.
The pumpkin soup was smooth, creamy, and delicious. The food arrived quickly. Great presentation.
