“The atmosphere is fantastic and wonderful staff. I would recommend serving soft bread with your charcuterie board instead of hard bread crackers. Other than that the other food options are amazing. It was sad to see The Vine wine bar close down so Crush’d is my new wine bar going forward to enjoy with family and friends. Great wine options to choose from as well.”

“Absolutely delicious pizza! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The crust was amazing, and the toppings were so good. One of the best pizzas I’ve had! Definitely coming back again. Highly recommend!”
“This was our first time eating here and we enjoyed it very much. The chicken and beef skewers were tender and delicious. The sauces were all really good and the pita, rice and salad were excellent.”

“The BEST coffee I’ve had since being in Italy & Egypt ! They make authentic Turkish coffee as well !
Service is superb , vibe is casual , they offer many roasts of beans for sale & also offer drip coffee if you don’t want an espresso drink. A mocha is what I ordered and it was excellent !”
“Located in a small strip mall with plenty of free parking, East Bay Bakery is a zero-friction stop.
Arrived in the early morning to find a pristine, complete selection arranged across two small display cases. The operational care here is obvious—warm items were securely packaged completely separate from the cold pastries per my request, preserving the structural integrity of the crusts.
The technical breakdown:
Traditional Croissant: Stunning work and an absolute lesson in volume. It features a striking, bi-texture design on the exterior rings where the ultra-glossy, deeply bronzed egg-wash finish splits open along the ridge lines during baking, creating a beautiful shattered-lace effect that highlights the perfect expansion of the lamination layers. The interior cuts open to reveal a perfectly uniform, highly aerated honeycomb crumb.
The Croffle: A flawless hybrid execution. It presses a highly laminated pastry dough into a crisp waffle matrix, catching a beautiful golden glaze across the ridge peaks while maintaining an incredibly flaky internal crumb crunch.
.
Almond Croissant: Excellent geometry. It avoids the typical flat, greasy sink you see at other bakeries, balancing a shatter-crisp exterior shell with a thick, beautifully even layer of rich frangipane cream at the baseline.
Kouign-Amann: Phenomenal structure. It achieves a massive, vertical rise with a beautifully crisp, deeply caramelized outer sugar glaze, while the cross-section reveals an incredibly rich, stratified interior layer structure with a perfect chewiness.
Sausage Roll: A heavy-duty savory asset. The puff pastry crust is baked to a deep golden bronze, wrapping tightly around a dense, nicely seasoned, and robust meat core.
Turkey Cheese Croissant: Visually spectacular and aggressive. It commands attention with a massive, crispy baked cheddar cheese skirt bubbling out at the base and an expansive internal steam pocket packed with folded turkey.
Fruit Danish: The sweet pastry hits every mark. It sets a razor-sharp, yeast-leavened laminated viennoiserie frame around a velvety smooth yellow custard, topped with a glistening row of dark baked fruit and a light dusting of powdered sugar.
This is exceptional craftsmanship that actually delivers on its structural potential. Tasted phenomenal for breakfast and sets the definitive standard for the East Bay. Highly recommended.”

“Love this place so much. I like the owners they are kind and work very hard.
The taste, quality, and freshness of their sushi is somehow even better than high end Sushi places I’ve been to in Downtown Danville. Yet this place charges half the price. ‘Nuf said.”

“It wasn't busy yet and the service was a little slow but the food was good. I wanted it to be hotter. My seat was very dirty next to me and that bothered me. And then they had live music setting up next to our table, it was a little awkward. Pretty good. Could do better.”
“My boyfriend and I always come here when we’re craving for something delicious and healthy. I order the same thing every time because it’s so good. 😅 The Salmon with Quinoa is my favorite! I should try something else next time because my bf have tried a few different ones and he always end up liking it. I also love the chocolate chip cookie! Wish they sell a pack of 12 😂”
“Super awesome place! Was traveling out of town and I got the prosciutto toast with arugula and caramelized onions, and it was great!
The best part was how awesome the staff was with my son. He wanted a mango and peach smoothie which wasn’t on the menu, and they went out of their way to help us customize it into something he would actually like and he loved it.
We’ll definitely go again.”
“We have been to Diablo Taqueria several times in the last year and a half that we have been in Danville. This is not a fancy restaurant, but has simple, tasty Mexican food. Have had their quesadilla and their Mexican salad in a taco bowl - both consistently good. We are vegetarian - and they always have options for us and are willing to customize as needed. We made a rule for ourselves that we would not visit the same restaurant twice in the first year of being in the area in order to try more places - and we broke that rule for this restaurant - just cause it was a great place for a quick healthy lunch.”
“Had a lovely evening at The Barnyard! Service was the best and our server chose the most delicious wines for my custom wine flight. My friend had the sparkling flight and really enjoyed it. We shared an excellent charcuterie board and buratta. Will definitely return.”
“I recommend the pancakes.great people .Great conversations with the owners.if you eat here you will not leave hungry”

“As a person with celiac’s disease and other food allergies I appreciate that bread is only served if requested. I had the filet and it was great. The staff is knowledgeable about food allergies and cross contamination. We will be adding this restaurant to the small list of places that are allergy friendly in the bay area.”
“It is nice to still have a good restaurant here at Blackhawk Plaza.
The service is excellent and quick. The food is good and has ample menu options. The drinks are just ok and some kick.
I am giving this restaurant a chance as this area is hit by closures and low foot traffic. Residents should support their local businesses as it benefits them as well.”
“We got there in time for Happy Hour. The service was outstanding. Our server named Lumbi was attentive, super nice and took care of my family (plus our dog) so well. She brought out our food quickly, drinks refills quickly and our food came out flawlessly.
The prices compared to Irvine (where we are from) is very affordable!! The fish was fresh and the avocado roll was to die for. Not traditional sushi, it’s quite westernized so if that’s your style you’ll be happy. Solid locals spot!”
“We had dinner here last night and truly enjoyed the whole experience. The food was fresh, delicious, and full of flavor. What made our visit even better was the excellent service — everyone was so kind, welcoming, and attentive. The staff made us feel comfortable from the moment we walked in. It is not easy to find a place with both great food and such warm hospitality. We will definitely come back again. Highly recommended

“"Tides" made this birthday dinner special - a birthday card, a special birthday dessert. Our waiter, Armando, was very personable and attentive but not overbearing. The dishes ordered were very tasty and well presented. Yes, this will be one of our favorite restaurants for dining in the future!!!!”
“Friendly, attentive service. Perfect fish and chips, (crunchy batter, soft, moist fish, un-soggy fries), paired great with a double IPA. Cobb salad was loaded, and very fresh. Iron Horse Trail proximity gives biking and walking options, but there's plenty of off-street car parking.”

“Flora, Lily, Jessica, and Cece are the BEST!! We love Akira Sushi- have been coming here for years and consistently the best sushi in Danville. This will forever be our go-to spot and everyone that takes care of us. Special shoutout to Cece and Jessica- their customer service is superb and they are so sweet- we love being served by them!!!”
“Enjoy coming to yogurt shack in the heart of Danville. Great variety of yogurt flavors and toppings. The owners staff with mostly high school youth. Looks like an excellent first job and the kids seem to not only enjoy working there but are very friendly and helpful. I love that it is conveniently located next to primos. It's a great after dinner treat.”
“I ordered the spicy pork lunch set here. The side dishes were tasty, and the set itself was well put together. It came with japchae, which was well-seasoned and had a nice variety of ingredients. The rice portion was slightly small, but honestly, the side dishes and japchae were enough to feel full. The amount of spicy pork was also generous.
The only downside was the noise from the fitness center upstairs—it sounded like dumbbells being dropped on the floor. It didn’t really affect my meal, but it might be stressful for the owner or staff. The server was very kind and friendly.”
“i absolutely love this place! amazing menu, gluten free baked goods. everything is delicious! Also there is dining available outside as well as inside, so if you have a furry Good boy or girl, they don't have to get left behind. I get their Spring Omelet with gluten free English muffin and fruit. oh so good!”

“Just had a GREAT experience at Melo’s today! We had a large group (24+) where we pre-ordered pizza and salads. They set us up in an area perfect for our group. Our food was set up on one table…buffet style…and we had plenty of tables to sit and eat. Highly recommend Melo’s pizza and pasta in Danville!”
“Don't drink, so I ordered a diet Soda. The bartender warned me that he didn't know who's diet it was but that it wasn't that good. He was being nice to what ever it was I had. Disgusting,Horrible diet soda. Everything else was great. Except a Niners glass....Probably because of my Seahawks Shirt.”
“I had ordered Tals Sufganiyot for Hannukuh today, but ended up having to call and cancel because I was in a car accident on the way so couldn’t make it in time for their closing. They were kind enough to come have one of their team members hand deliver it to our house. Such a kind act on an otherwise bad day that you just don’t see businesses do anymore. And, not to mention, it was delicious!! Thank you for your Hospitality and we’ll be back soon ❤️”
“I am a doordasher and I dash a lot of these sandwiches to a great many people from their reviews and watching the people making the sandwich pulled the trigger I had to find out I am well pleased and thrilled to report all is well if you don't know you might want to try 😋😍☺️”

“Recommend! That said, it is FOOTBALL SUNDAY 🏈 and your taps are DRY for HenHouse, Altamount Maui, and SpaceDust? Come on boys!!! Pass for today but will be back!!”
“I loved my experience here! The food was amazing and the sauces were delicious. Aaron the owner treated us like family. You must go try it- you will go back again. Bring your own alcohol as they are new and don’t have their liquor license yet.”

“Bagels are not the chewy type, they are much fluffier and delicious.
But the Dutch Crunch is not good. It looks great but it is extremely sweet and too soft, to the extent that is not bread anymore. Taste like dessert to me. too soft for a bread (tears easily), too sweet for a bread and lacks the signature crunch you expect.”
“I visited in May, 2026 and ordered a shrimp quesadilla and a salad with chicken. Once I got home, we noticed there was no chicken. (The shrimp quesadilla was delicious.) I was a little annoyed and sent an email with some feedback. Within a couple hours I got a call from Paul, one of the owners of the location. I was surprised at the quick response! He apologized and invited me to come visit again so they could make things right. The attention and effort he showed me by calling so quickly was very thoughtful and I was impressed!
A month later I get a call from another owner named Jesse who wanted to check to make sure everything had been resolved. I explained that I hadn't had a chance to go in yet but that I was still planning to. I appreciated his call too.
Finally, this month in July, I made it back with my Mom. Paul and Jesse made sure we were taken care of. My salad was perfect. The nachos were great too.
This Baja Fresh is managed by two stand up guys that want to make sure customers are happy with both the service and food. That means a lot. Thanks Paul and Jesse!
(forgive me if I am not spelling your names right!)”
“I really enjoy visiting this Panda Express location in Danville, CA. The environment is clean, welcoming, and well maintained.
Eva, in particular, is exceptional—she is always friendly, smiling, and highly professional in the way she takes care of customers.
Every time I visit this location, I leave with a positive experience. Thank you to the entire Panda Express team. Your employees are truly valuable assets, and you should be proud of every single one of them.
I hope the team receives recognition, even if it’s a simple thank-you email or phone call, because they genuinely deserve it.
Thank you,
Faisal

“Had the banh mi with grilled pork, and a Thai ice tea. The sandwich was tasty and the ingredients were fresh. It was the perfect size, at a good price. The service was fast and the staff was friendly. Since it's only 100 ft from the iron horse trail, it's a great place to stop for a break on a longer ride or walk. Added bonus is the bike rack in viewing distance from the cafe.”
“My colleague and I met to finalize a presentation and didn’t realize they are closed on Mondays. HOWEVER, the staff invited us in and allowed us to work as they were setting up for a private event. They were so kind and welcoming when they really didn’t have to be. They let us use their WiFi and brought us water and snacks while we worked! It was really amazing! I will bringing my husband back ASAP for food and drinks (first time here). You really don’t find humans like this these days. They’ve have a loyal patron in me!!”
