Restaurants in Martinez

“The best biriani I've ever had!”

“Heck ya!! What a fabulous dining experience! It’s a cozy restaurant in downtown Martinez. Definitely recommend making reservation as this place can be super packed esp. during live music hours. Everything we ordered, from their daily specials, to locally sourced ingredients give you a farm to table kind of dining venture. The house cocktails are refreshing-ly good. If you have a sweet tooth, their in-house desserts to finish off your meal-perfect amount of sweetness! Can’t wait to be back for more!”

“We throughly enjoyed the entire night. Before the show there were magicians performing magic right at your table and it was amazing. They interacted with you and did some amazing magic upclose and personal. The service was fantastic and food was really good. I will be back.”

“Padsew very good flavor. There was a very friendly lady and then a not so friendly lady. We had a bit of a language barrier and the unfriendly one made sure to be scarce as I waited. The very friendly hostess righted the wrong quickly and I was grateful. I didn't appreciate how the other unfriendly one addressed me. The veggie padsew and the Golden potstickers were good. I don't really eat meat...but I tried it and it was a good texture and it wasnt dry. I also put the potstickers in my airfryer for 3 or so minutes to crisps them back up..the sauce was yummy 😋”

“Hands down the best restaurant in Martinez. I travel from Vallejo to enjoy the Salmon and steak hibachi. The staff are so kind and friendly. The dining area is always spotless. I highly recommend you come here if you’re looking for a good quality meal!!!!”

“Great little Secret place. Try it you will like it. Large portions and very tasty, I loved the prime Rib, excellent cook to perfection, the service is great, the best thing was the price.”

“Taco Tuesday, incredible deal and very good.”

“We were catching a train through Martinez on Thanksgiving Day. No other food place was open except for Aberdeen Cafe. We were greeted with a warm smile and hot tea. Food was amazing and staff were so generous. Thank you!”

“Oh my goodness! I've only had one sandwich there, but it was Uh-maze-ing! It's a quiet little place in a strip mall, and when the guy I was traveling with brought me up to it I definitely had second thoughts. But wow! The prosciutto and fig jam grilled cheese was fantastic, the staff was amazing, and the local is quirky, but clean.”

“Amazing as always! This place delivers consistently excellent sushi—super fresh, and just look at the picture to see how thick their sashimi cuts are. It’s not only fresh, it’s truly a great value.

I ordered four pieces of sashimi, the katsu curry with an add-on of California roll for an additional of $5, and it all even came with a salad. The pork in the katsu curry was juicy with two thick, satisfying slices.

Not to mention they gave me free tea. So generous.

Service was outstanding—the true definition of great customer care. The ambiance is cozy, welcoming, and very clean. Highly recommend!

I love this place and the owners!!!”

“As a vegan it’s nearly impossible to find delicious, authentic soul food. I drive out of my way in Bay Area traffic to get there. Now that I have moved away I look forward to my annual trip. Thank you for filling my soul for 15 years!”

“Bar Cava is a Martinez is an experience.. make sure you don’t miss it! … or you’ll have FOMO! Yep! I said that! It’s that awesome! Tell all you friends! (Or they’ll be mad with you) BC is the bar with it all!”

“Great atmosphere and beer.. good spot for families before 6. The food is a bit overpriced for the quality. they swapped homemade chicken tenders for Frozen recently which tasted like cardboard. but otherwise solid place, just the food menu is my only gripe.”

“We often get items from this shop. It’s close to where we live . All their products are 👍 😍”

“Food was excellent as usual. Order quickly taken and food came out in a reasonable time. Portions where nice. Only thing I don't like about this place as well as domino's is that the charge card reader forces you to pay a tip or decline it. You need to ask your employer for more money as the cashier if you need tips. I always thought tips where for waiters and not take out food places. Pretty soon McDonald's and even safeway will include this forced option.”

“atmosphere with quality coffee and community centered owner. great for study space with lots of natural light”

“I stopped by Alhambra Donuts the other day coming back from UC Riverside and on my way to East Oakland (detour route) and must I say it was an experience. The glazed donuts are bomb and the best i’ve ever had in the Bay Area so far my tastebuds were beyond satisfied. This is also a small family owned business so that’s also a plus because I get to support that. What really makes the experience stand out is the young guy with the beard—hands down the best customer service I’ve ever had at a donut shop. He’s friendly, patient, and made my morning better after that long drive. Great donuts + amazing service = perfect combo.”

“These people are true artisans and took the time to open their shop after hours for my group. They explained the roasting process and gave much insite, making it an experience not just a coffee.”

“We went to the music at the winery on the 24th! We had an absolute blast! The music was great, the venue so fun and relaxing ,the service amazing and the family was so inviting! Thank you for a magical time!”

“Everything thing about this place is beautiful. From the staff to the atmosphere being half outside. I love it!”

“Great food and great service. The music is super entertaining. The owner is awesome. Highly recommend!!!!”

“Nominated for one of Martinez best Mexican restaurants!!🥳🍽️”

“Dudes are cool, and extra topping at no charge woo woo awesome service.”

“We absolutely love this place! Their carne asada is to die for, it’s always seasoned and cooked to perfection. I love they use grilled chicken for their tacos, and you can tell everything is made to order. Super fresh! The staff is always so friendly and welcoming as well.”

“The food is excellent and employees are friendly and professional. We had a very pleasant time.”

“Had a wonderful breakfast here with my mom and daughter this week. I have lived in the area a long time and this is my first trip here. I I'm definitely returning. I had the fiest omelette, which comes with a side of sour cream, pico de gallo, and a wonderful medium hot sauce. It was a wonderful combination of tastes. The hash browns were perfectly golden and the toast was warm and buttered. My coffee cup was never empty and the service was really good. Love the wood interior It feels like a Tahoe restaurant. Good ambience and five. There are a few tables out front on the sidewalk. If you haven't been here you definitely should give it a try.”

“Great place to stop for a drink. Lots of options for entertainment such as karaoke, live music and special events. For a smaller bar they have a great drink selection. I will definitely be back.”

“Just had a wonderful Italian salad...so good and hubby enjoyed his sandwich and salad very much. So happy to find a new delicious salad/sandwich joint!”

“We had a great evening with friends. Great food great service!”

“the Dawgs are amazing you have such a large selection of condiments it is hard to choose,the owner and staff are all very nice and hel0ful great place for our town martinez definitely gonna be a success!! congratulations”

“We ordered pick up and it was ready in 10 mins. Super fast service. The special banh mi is delicious! Just make sure to take out the green peppers if you’re sensitive.”

“Best everything!! Pasta, sandwiches, bread spaghetti and pizzas plus all of the delectable baked goods are the best. I will keep going back!!”

“I came here to get some pupusas and I wasn’t disappointed. There were very delicious. I definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking to eat some traditional pupusas.”

“Nominated for one of Martinez best Mexican restaurants!!🥳🍽️”

“Awesome sushi poke place that is very generous with its portions! The staff is very friendly and helpful in getting all of the ingredients you like as well as telling you if something cost extra!

I ordered a large bowl which cost $20

The store is also very clean and if there's anything highlighted or shown for sale, they'll also let you know!

Overall, the ordering process was very smooth!”

“Fantastic food, excellent service and nice ambiance! Everything is so fresh and delicious! I love this place!”

“Second time getting food from there, really good food, always made to order with fresh ingredients. Had the best breakfast sandwich I’ve had so far. It’s one of my boyfriend’s favorite spots as he grew up in the area, definitely becoming one of mine. Definitely recommend stopping by!”

“5 star🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 10/10 food 10/10 hygienic 10/10 service”

“Very nice and friendly staff😊”

“Celebrated our holidays with a group of 12 at Six Eleven. Christian was our server and he was great! Our food was delivered hot and delicious. We weren't rushed we were given plenty of time to enjoy our appetizers and our family and food. This was our first time here and we're looking forward to coming back. Thank you so much!”

“I had a large pizza delivered and it was really quick and delicious. I got a large Bianca pizza. Fresh pizza with a yummy thin crust that is still soft. I will definitely be going again!”

“I've been going to Sunday night karaoke for the 6-7 years. The drinks are well priced, there's plenty of pool tables, the staff is excellent and the crowd is friendly & chill!”

“Good customer service and good sandwich 🥪 really clean area”

“Delicious creamy and flavorful. I had the guava and it was rich and fruity.”

“Martinez location is always clean n friendly.

Parking: Shopping center type parking lot.

Wheelchair accessibility: There's a ramp at the curb.”

“Their version of a whiskey sour is easily in my top 3 whiskey sours I've ever had. Everything they make at the bar is quality and the bartenders are all very talented”

“We went for breakfast on Saturday morning, The food was Ok, The service was adequate I had the Huevos Rancheros they were served differently I was not impressed, They were good.”

“This place was a nice stop. It wasn’t busy when we came in, so we got our food pretty quickly. I ordered the BBQ chicken and short ribs, and my wife got the salmon poke bowl. She really enjoyed the poke bowl—lots of protein, and they didn’t skimp on the toppings at all.

My dish was also good. The short ribs were a little chewy, and the chicken could’ve had a bit more flavor, but if you’re really hungry like I was, it definitely hits the spot. It’s definitely quantity over quality, but still worth it.

We also tried the spam musubi, which was good, though the sauce was more drizzled on the rice instead of coating the spam. Overall, it was a good experience and we will definitely return!”

“I stopped by during a transfer at Martinez Station. I was impressed by the cleanliness of the restaurant and the friendly service. The BBQ pork fried noodles and wonton soup were also delicious, and I'll definitely visit again if I have the chance.”

“The restaurant feels almost like a hole in the wall. The atmosphere feels very authentic, and very peaceful. The staff are amazing, and have always been so polite to my family and I. I have seen staff members immediately go to hold the door open for those who use canes or wheelchairs. Over the times I’ve been there, I had many of their items, and all of them are great. My favorite item is the Gnocchi with Gorgonzola. Overall, this restaurant is absolutely an underrated gem, and I’d completely recommend it.”

“This is the perfect treat for a hot day. Ian's has plenty of fro-yo flavors to choose from which makes the customer feel good. The price can be a little expensive sometimes, so it can be a place to go there not as frequently as others.🍦”

“Subway has always been a go to of mine for delicious sandwiches at an affordable price. No matter where I travel I know Subway will always be there & deliver exactly what I expect!”

“Not a whole lot that's worth stopping for in Martinez except for the Buon Aroma Deli. I was helping out my pal Patch Garibaldi lay out the Caromneedles for his new Higgins-Popstarter and he said he'd spring for lunch. Well! As long as it's Buon Aroma, I'm all in!5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆”

“We got eggplant in garlic sauce and veggie egg foo young. It was tasty and the portions were big. A little more sauce on the eggplant dish would have been nice, but we liked all the mushrooms and crunchy veggies in the dish. Will go here again for takeout.”

“And amazing blast from the past!!!”

“My daughter and I love Yo Sushi 🍣”

“Lovely little shop with a variety of drinks and things to nibble on. Good atmosphere and friendly staff definitely a place to rest up at with a nice iced or hot drink ^^”

“I love Bamboo Garden! They have incredible lunch specials that could easily feed 2 people. My fave menu items are pork chow mein and chicken lettuce wraps. The food is always fresh and good quality. The staff is so friendly, too! Bamboo Garden has become one of my favorite restaurants and I love supporting them.”

“The food was delicious the service was prompt and nice”

“Slow Hand never disappoints. Just got back from Austin and had bbque there at Franklins. But just tasting Slow Hand, absolutely amazing. Love, love this place! So many great drink options as well. Wow.”

“Great deli / cafe attached to a catering business. Sandwiches are outstanding. Meat piled high and very fresh vegetables. Roll was soft and light, also.

The deli operation closes at 2:00 pm daily and is closed on weekends. But in-between that, you can get a great sandwich here .

They have housemade salads of all types, incl pasta etc. I didn't try them but will - they all looked great

And, it is one of the few places to sit down and eat around here that doesn't try to shake a tip out of you at the cash register before even trying the food.

Definitely going back”

“Perfect flat white! Thank you Barista Victoria. ?

Vegetarian options: Egg bites with roasted red peppers is my favorite breakfast. (Blueberry Scones are wonderful too.)

Kid-friendliness: Observation: Baristas' interactions with children are excellent.

Parking: Lots of parking, but many walk there. Service is wonderful. Coffee and scones are consistently great! Favorite Starbucks by far!”

“All that and more ! Great service… Thanks Noni !”

“great team working here, friendly, helpful, enjoying their jobs...very clean and neat inside, and they always make my drink perfect! Thank you ☕”

“Great $9.99 pizza Bar. Fresh variety of pizza, fresh salad bar and cinnamon knots. Very clean and spacious restaurant. They even found my cousins lost ear ring and returned it. Going back Thursday with friends.”

“I enjoy this restaurant. I order either the crispy chicken tacos or the taco salad with grilled chicken. Have never had a bad meal from here. I see others didn't like it, but I have been going there since 2017”

“Its all good! My fave the cuban! Excellent service all the way aound great bunch! Great job guys!!”

“I did a take out order from this location I didn't know it existed. They went above and beyond to help me with my order really appreciate the service thank you”

“You know a place is amazing when it’s packed! I ordered a Supreme Pineapple Green Tea with stir fried boba and chizu (cheese) cream and half a dozen mochi donuts: funnel cake, black sesame, churro, strawberry shortcake, taro, and Captain Crunch. Tea was amazing (though I will go without the chizu cream) and next time I bring donuts to work I’m bringing in mochi dough❤️”

“Great location! Speedy service. Friendly staff. Great coffee”

“Fun place Ces ces is dope”

“Great spot to come in and grab some Mexican food, tried 3 tacos with an assortment of meat; Chicken, chorizo, steak, and they were absolutely delicious. From the crisp ends to the flavorful tortilla these are great! The refried beans aswell were amazing and some of my favorites. Only thing bringing this review down is the below average rice, however great service and atmosphere are unbelievable for such a hole in the wall spot.”

“I think my wife and I found our new favorite sushi spot, certainly much closer than our other one!
We came to check this place out. Standard menu, lots of options without having too many to look though either. My wife got a pork Katsu Bento box, I got a couple rolls, and we shared an appetizer or two.
Food was satisfying and the server was attentive on refills and checking on us. Best of all the prices are still reasonable here, which is nice with how much they seem to be going up everywhere else.
I think we will be going here regularly to get our sushi fix!”

“This is my go to dutch bros and the broistas are absolutely awesome, the energy that the crew have is are always good vibes especially renee she is so welcoming and fun”
