I have reached out to some people I know in the area for suggestions, but haven't received any positive feedback as of yet. I will be arriving via BART and plan to grab an Uber/Lyft to wherever the locale may be.
Where is the hotel? Is Denny not renting a car to get around? (It's a ways from Union City to Cal State EB Hayward -- or maybe the venue of Denny's presentation is somewhere other than the Hayward campus?)

There might be a usable BART to bus connection for some restaurants.

I noticed that one of the restaurants near the Union City BART (walking distance) is an Indian buffet that looks like it might be pretty decent (and I think covers the possibilities from omnivore to vegetarian to vegan): Favorite Indian Restaurant @ 1706 Decoto Rd. FWIW.
