Hayward Restaurant Month is Back, with Deals and New Menu Items Galore. For the third year running, restaurants in Hayward are offering food lovers a chance to save money while trying new places or revisiting old favorites.
The promotions will be available throughout January, providing a welcome boost for restaurateurs who often face slow sales after the busy holiday season. According to Paul Nguyen, chief economic development officer for the City of Hayward, these deals can make all the difference in keeping businesses afloat during this period.
Yelp has created a special webpage featuring participating restaurants and their offers. While many deals come with restrictions, such as not being combinable with other discounts, others are unveiling new menu items to tantalize customers. Here's a look at some of the opening deals:
Discounts will be available at Aama’s Kitchen, where diners can enjoy free papadum with every order; Acqua e Farina is offering 10% off any food item when mentioning Restaurant Month; and Edgewater Pizza will treat customers to 15% off all orders. El Pastorcito Taqueria has a deal of its own: buy two burritos or meals, get one free beverage.
Meanwhile, Ghazni Afghan Kabobs are offering 15% off their orders, Golden Safari Restaurant is providing 10% off main meals (excluding drinks and appetizers), and Gurkha Kitchen will let customers buy one menu item at full price and get a second one for half off. Other participating restaurants include Habibi’s Birria, Los Dos Hermanos, New York Pizza, Oh G Burger, Old City Roastery, Rayo's Pizza, Sourdough & Co., Storybook, Susie Q's Pizza, and Tin's Teapot Bistro.
Some popular spots are also introducing new menu items to draw customers in. These include Concha Dreams' s'mores concha with coffee or hot chocolate, Hinata Sushi Kitchen's new patio menu featuring sandos and bento boxes, Rockit Char Grill's Chicken Pesto Panini, Snappy's Cafe offering cardamom chai, Tang Jip serving soy-marinated crab, Galbi Tang, and The Neighborhood Grandma serving up breakfast sandwiches and coffee.

it's like the whole city is trying to convince me to try new food spots or revisit old faves and honestly who doesn't love a good deal? 
from free papadum at aama's kitchen to 15% off main meals at ghazni afghan kabobs, there are so many options to choose from. i'm kinda tempted to hit up el pastorcito taqueria for that buy two get one free vibe - sounds like the perfect excuse to try their burritos and drinks combo 
️ but what's really got me excited is all the new menu items popping up everywhere, like concha dreams' s'mores concha or hinata sushi kitchen's patio menu - can't wait to dig in and see what all the fuss is about 
and 15% off at Ghazni Afghan Kabobs? 
️. It's always awesome to see local businesses come together to support each other during slow sales periods 
. The webpage on Yelp is so helpful, btw - makes it easy to find deals and restaurants 
. Can't wait to get out there and take advantage of all these amazing offers! 
. I mean, what's the real incentive here? You're just gonna go out of your way to save a few bucks on food that you could've easily gotten at their regular prices anyway? Not trying to be a buzzkill, but it feels like more marketing fluff than actual saving-the-day deal 
.
. Some places are just going to use these promotions as an excuse to serve up overpriced, gimmicky dishes that'll probably just end up in the trash 
. Meanwhile, the regulars who know what they're doing will be stuck with the same old menu at full price

! I've been to Aama's Kitchen before and their papadum is the best, can't wait to get that for free with my order this month 
. But what really gets me excited is trying out those new menu items - Concha Dreams' s'mores concha sounds insane, and Hinata Sushi Kitchen's patio menu has some amazing options too 
. And let's be real, who doesn't love a good deal? It's the perfect way to kick off the new year and support our local businesses 
anyway, i heard some cool deals, like free papadum at Aamas Kitchen and buy one get one free burritos at El Pastorcito Taqueria... thats pretty tempting! 
but what about the restaurants that didnt make the list? are they just gonna be left behind? 
It's actually pretty cool that Yelp is creating this special webpage to help people find deals and new places to try. And I have to admit, some of those new menu items sound pretty tasty... like that s'mores concha thing from Concha Dreams. But let's be real, it's just a marketing gimmick to get people in the door. Still, if it helps support local businesses during a tough time, I'm all for it 
I've been thinking of trying out Edgewater Pizza and Los Dos Hermanos, so this is just the push I needed to give them a shot. Maybe it's time for me to explore some new spots in Hayward...
️ The fact that Yelp is hosting a dedicated webpage for participating restaurants is also a great idea, making it easy for foodies like myself to navigate the offerings. Overall, this promotion is a much-needed boost for local businesses and I'll definitely be taking advantage of it 
.
. I've been meaning to try out more restaurants around here and now is the perfect opportunity! 
I'm so down for this, who doesn't love trying new places or revisiting old faves at a discounted price? 
My wallet is definitely doing the happy dance just thinking about it. And can we talk about how cool it is that Yelp is making all these deals easily accessible on their webpage? 
It's like they're trying to help out our local restaurants who often struggle during this time of year. I'm excited to see what new menu items are popping up - s'mores concha with coffee? Yes, please! 
Anyway, I think this deal is just what restaurants need to get customers coming in after that holiday rush. 10% off here, buy one free there... sounds like a good combo to me! 
. Some of the deals seem pretty sweet - like getting free papadum with every order at Aama's Kitchen 
. It makes it so easy for people like us to find out what's going on and plan our dining adventures 
. Bring on January!
