About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighbourhood gem
Welcome to our beautifully restored Victorian with a contemporary twist. Neumanali opened fifteen years ago and quickly became a neighborhood favorite.

We are open for indoor dining. Patio seating is available. We are not requiring masks for those who have been vaccinated, however, we appreciate your adherence to the state masking requirements for those not vaccinated.

The menu features both fresh and seasonal entrees in addition to a selection of fun and unusual small plates. Perennial favorites are the pan-seared day boat scallops, grilled ribeye and pan seared pork chop. The wine list is a bit eclectic and features smaller, more difficult to find winery selections. Lush garden dining is available now.

    The food and ambiance was very good. My only suggestion would be for the server to be more congenial. We are regular customers however the server is very unfriendly. We recognize he is the host, server, bus boy etc and that’s a big job, however, a few niceties like welcome, how was your dinner, nice to see you, hope to see you soon would be most appreciated.

    We have eaten here a few times over the past several months. Each time I ordered the salmon with potatoes and each time it was overwhelmed with lemon. So much so, it was difficult to eat. Lemon, of course, makes it taste salty. The waiter is very efficient, but surly at best. When one of our party mentioned a dish she saw on their website, he rudely commented 'where did you ever see that??!' and rolled his eyes. Apparently they don't keep their site up to date. Not once did he ask us how our meal was or if he could help with anything - once he poured more water. I am having second thoughts on returning. This could be such a gem, located in Hayward in a Victorian.

    We thought we overheard the server say that they were closing sometime in October or November. I'm not 100% sure if that's accurate or not. In either case, there are reviews on Yelp that speak to the server's overall demeanor or attitude. I would agree that he seemed nonchalant and not once did he come by and ask if we needed anything. He did come by to specifically ask if I wanted a refill though. Point being is that he's a one man show doing everything for every table, but not with the most common customer service approach. This one guy is seating, taking orders, providing bread and oil, serving water/drinks, serving the meals, providing and ringing up the check and I think he's even bussing the tables and providing to go boxes. A tall order considering he's covering every single table. In this day and age where everyone is at each other, I tried to feel compassion for the guy because you don't know what he's going through in life. The restaurant closing can't be for a good reason unless it's pure retirement. The food was surprisingly decent and ample in quantity. We ordered the filet mignon and the lamb. The filet was a bit overcooked for medium rare. It was medium well and pretty tough. But everything else was flavorful, including all the sides (potatoes, vegetables, etc.) We chose this place because it was close to home. I'm not in a rush to go back, but all in all, I think it was a decent value.

    This is a wonderful gem hidden in downtown Hayward. It’s become one of our favorite places to celebrate. Fancy, yet not ostentatious. Food is always ver my good. Service was prompt and professional, though not overflowing with joy (hey, we all have those nights). Only thing I’d suggest testing is a new more interesting bread choice.
