    I wonder if it might be Quercus douglasii?

    I have checked this tree fr a long time. This seems to be evergreen, whereas Q. douglasii is deciduous tree. Also occasional marginal spines on leaves are unusual for above species. I am adding one more photographs.

    Looks like Quercus x alvodiana. It is evergreen and from California.
