It was my first time to try a BlackboardEats (BBE) coupon even though I have already stashed a couple of discounts from them under my account. My first impression of BBE is that they actually have discounts from above average/four-star Yelp restaurants unlike other more popular deal sites that offer discounts from lackluster restaurants. Best of all for BBE coupons, you don't have to pay in advance to get the discount!

Lot 7, one of the newbies on Valencia Street, was described as a seafood restaurant online so I was excited- there were lots of dungeness crab in the menu. For a crab lover like me, I felt the love with crabs written all over the menu- crab cakes, dungeness crab mac n cheese, fish with crab, etc. 

We were seated by the window so I was thrilled to get ample lighting for my food photos. The two downsides of Lot 7 are the deafening noise despite the high ceiling and, of course, the challenging street parking on a Friday night in the Mission district.

surprisingly good- mandarin orange, red beet salad with deep fried cheese

crab cake goodness
