I've been wearing glasses or contacts since I was 11. In all that time, I have never had a pair of glasses that I actually liked. One visit to Eye Gotcha (on 31 Dec -- had to use the last of my medical spending), and I wound up with two pairs of glasses that I loved. The staff all has an uncanny ability to know what will work on your face. They also have a wide selection of very hip frames. I've gotten endless complements on my new glasses. I also can't say enough about how friendly they were to me given that I walked in with no appoinment during their busiest season with medical spending funds that I had to use or loose. The experience was so great, that my sister who had just come along originally to help me pick out frames, wound up picking a set of new glasses too. Later, we found out that our brother-in-law has been coming here for years. No matter where you live in the bay area, I would recommend making the drive to Eye Gotcha. You won't be disappointed!
Pros: Great selection of frames, talented staff
Cons: Parking
