Restaurants in Pleasant Hill

“Amazing chicken but even better service.

First time here didn't know what to order, I usually feel like the annoying customer everyone hates when I ask what to try for a first timer. Thankfully Leilani and Alexis were super sweet and patient with me as we went over the more popular items.

I ended up going with the new trio bundle and it was amazing. The cheese pulls on the mozz were top notch. The extra hot option is killer so beware. The chicken was brined and juicy throughout. I'll definitely be back.

Thanks again Alexis and Leilani for showing me an amazing first time at Dave's you've got a customer for life!”

“I am slowly working my way through the whole menu the sea bass was excellent today so was the salmon my friend enjoyed I've had the braised beef and we both had the chicken tenders we will continue to enjoy what is offer especially those new items that just came in. chef Raul and the crew know what they're doing very lovely outing every time”

“I love a hot dog. I mean I love a hot dog! The Casper dogs are very mediocre. I’ve had better next to any of the various Bay Area stadiums. The hot dogs are grossly overpriced. $15 for two plain hot dogs is robbery, in my opinion. I always feel like I’ve entered a time warp in the restaurants. I know some people like nostalgia, but I see yuck. It’s just a depressing place to sit & eat. My orders are always to go.”

“I really like clam chowder and a sourdough bowl. Their sourdough bread is yummy! Soft inside and lightly crispy outside. Salads are really good - fresh ingredients.”

“Anytime we are in Pleasanthill area we try to eat at Jo’s Honda Sushi. We used to live in Pleasanthill and we would go there at least once a week. We love Honda and all his family ❤️”

“Every dish I've ordered from this restaurant has been delicious, I would say the best Thai I've tried in the East Bay. Not only are the dishes scrumptious and generous, but the service is also outstanding. They are so nice, caring and attentive to food allergies, even calling me to confirm my order details. I regularly get takeout from here, and even though I live 20 minutes away, it is always well worth the drive.”

“Pedimos diferentes platos y todo estuvo exquisito. Buen trato y excelente servicio. Recomendado 10/10”

“Consistently delicious! I’ve been here 4 times now and every visit has been amazing. We ordered the Chicken Kaarage, Honey Bunny roll, salmon carpaccio, and gyoza. All were phenomenal and the vibe of the space is very relaxing with nooks of privacy intentionally provided.
I am glad they put in such effort to provide quality meals, great customer service, and awesome atmosphere. Highly recommend!”

“the chicken is the best around and the al pastor is to die for”

“excelente servicio y la comida deliciosa”

“We just had the most awesome breakfast at The Hangout in Martinez. I ordered the Chicken and Waffles. It had just the right amount of crunchy spicy sweet goodness. Fast and friendly service.”

“Walked in on a Tuesday evening and the thin-crust pepperoni looked textbook — almost translucent in spots, with the cheese browned just right at the edges from a gas deck oven. The sausage came fennel-forward and crumbled, not pre-formed, which made a noticeable difference with each bite.

Prices sit around $17-18 for a 14-inch specialty, which is fair for the quality. The counter service was quick and patient, even when I asked for half-and-half toppings. The seating is simple — a few booths and tables with a clean, uncluttered vibe. No gluten-free crust here last time I checked, just the regular dough and a solid sauce that leans slightly sweet.”

“First time customers. Jose was our server and he was excellent. Went above and beyond to explain the menu. Very kind. Suggest Crumbs have a senior menu.”

“Experience exceptional dining at Jack restaurant, where the waitstaff and bartender provide top-notch service with a smile. They take the time to ask about your meal and ensure that every detail meets your satisfaction.”

“I’ve been coming to Giant Burger in Pleasant Hill for a long time, and the service is always excellent. Today, Lupe took care of me, and she was incredibly helpful, friendly, and attentive. I truly appreciate the outstanding customer service she provided.

The restaurant is always clean, organized, and welcoming, which makes every visit enjoyable. Because of the great food, excellent service, and well-maintained environment, I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great dining experience.

Thank you to Lupe and the entire staff for consistently doing such a wonderful job. I will definitely be back and will continue recommending this restaurant to others.”

“Enjoy the beers and wonderful staff.”

“My husband and I have been customers since 2013 and now we've become good friends with the owners. The bagels are made fresh daily and always hits the spot for us. Service is wonderful, it's a must go to whenever our family is visiting in town.”

“We ate here and met the chef/owner. Everything was delicious and authentic! Its a small place located in a strip mall with plenty of parking. Unfortunately we went by and it had a closed sign and look to be no longer in business.”

“Me and my girlfriend stumble at this restaurant and im glad we did because while dining we met a few nice people and the bartender was very attentive..the food was absolutely delicious..I will definitely be returning 😋”

“Picked up from Zayn's Pizza & Deli tonight. Got the Spicy Cajun Chicken sandwich on dutch crunch so tasty! Also had a slice of the Tandoori Chicken Pizza with added Banana Peppers and a slice of the Mascarpone Pep Pizza. They were both delicious! The friendly owner has put a lot of thought and time into the menu and making everything delicious. Will definitely be going back for more!”

“Very friendly local vegan spot. Excellent food and service. Highly recommend! 😋”

“Line out the door. Lobby was standing room only. Drive thru was 35 cars deep. The staff and service was the same quality as always. 👍”

“Fresh seafood. Everything done well here! Will come back!”

“Amazing pizza and such wonderful people! The food was delicious, the service was friendly, and the whole experience was great. Definitely a place worth visiting!”

“never disappointed what ever I order. linguica sandwich is my fav for lunch. Denver omelet is my fav breakfast. the service is warm and friendly. wish it was closer. I live in Lafayette. but it is worth the drive”

“Food was so good and so very excellent. But the waiting is so so bad. Last time we waited for almost 40 minutes and when we checked it was in the food to go. We were so hungry but there’s one more problem. I ordered chicken enchilada for my husband and gave us cheese enchilada. We waited for the chicken enchilada and got it fast. We will still be back. Thanks”

“This spot is the most absolute amazing food and drinks and service out there. Every single food item I had has been outstanding!”

“Walk in & you will know! Food is delicious”

“We went to a baby shower last Saturday. We sat outside which was lovely. The service and food is ALWAYS so good! They do not skimp on their portions! We have been coming here since 1985. Thanks Tony, you know how to do it right!”

“My wife and I get tacos here every Wednesday. Yes a day late but we can't help but love it. Ashley the hostess is absolutely wonderful. She is kind, knowledgeable and makes our experience special every time. This restaurant is family owned and operated and that is what makes it so great. The quality of their food is excellent and the service is even better. They have a full bar too so of that's something you're in to then it's definitely worth a visit.”

“Lovely ambiance, great food! Wonderful service! Great place for groups!”

“T'Zun delivers with food, service and ambiance. The outside dining area is a true gem people really must not realize that it is there. I took a bunch of friends to experience and they so enjoyed it. The vibe is so relaxing to have a wonderful meal with friends.”

“The freshest sushi I’ve ever had in this area. Hands down. Will definitely be back!”

“Nice atmosphere but the best part is the food. Great selection with some hard to find items. They definitely know how to spice the food - can’t be beat”

“Always such good food with so many choices. Always very friendly staff as well. Love eating here”

“Very fresh and would definitely recommend the Big Combo Appetizer (Shumai, Gyoza, Tempura & Yakitori) to go with your Meal. Very friendly people, satisfied with the Food and Service😋”

“Visiting from out of town and stumbled across this little place. The food was delicious and we were served quickly. Staff was attentive and friendly. Definitely recommend.”

“A wonderful delicious surprise stopping at Pleasant Hill on the way to Oakland.
We had traditional Ramen and spicy chicken wings and they were phenomenal. We will be back.”

“Let me say that I was completely impressed by the food quality it was great. It was Hands down one of the best burgers I have had in awhile. The price was good too better that most places for less taste.. the service was very fast and friendly and suggested mushrooms on my burger wich I’m glad I did.. it was overall a not cleaner inside this time the management repaired the booth that were ripped and I can see clearly out the windows great job by all here”

“Stopped here because we got into town late and most other places were closed. Very good food and will go back often when I come to town. Open 24 hours a day. Huge menu options.”

“This place is awesome. While the standard Tex-Mex tacos and burritos are great and have amazing flavors, make sure you try something unique. The Posole Verde is the best I've ever had, Haurache Asada will out you into a joyous food coma, the Caldo Tlapeno is a go to anytime I need comfort food, and there are so much more here. (And the deserts are worth every calorie!)”

“Their dine in food surprised me during a dinner gathering. Was going to only have drinks here but attracted by the beautiful smell of the meat👍👍”

“Yum! We go here often and have tried a number of items on the menu, all were exceptionally fresh and well-made, flavorful, and generous portions. Glad they're on the delivery services too! The staff is so friendly and service is quick. Most of the other diners are Vietnamese (I'm guessing) which to me means the restaurant is serving authentic regional food.”

“Brunch with besties is already a treat, but here it's something really special. We had wonderful crepes, Turkish coffee, and it was my first time truing shakshuka. The atmosphere is soft and sumptuous, layered with rugs and sheepskin. The staff invited us to kick back and get cozy, and you can hardly help but relax and enjoy. Can't wait to come back!”

“It was the best curbside pickup experience that my van ever had! 2 Hand in Hand for Progress Day Program in Concord staff members ordered at least 1 item each!”

“Food is Delicious! Atmosphere is very nice and friendly! Try the Lemon Cake!!!!! This Place is everything you want in a Family Style Pizzeria!”

“Fabulously, delicious cupcakes for our daughters 7 year birthday party. Catastic! Thanks smallcakes!”

“Foods are delicious and has good serving sizes that can be shared with 2-4 people.

They accommodated changes to the menu like for example,I wanted bittermelon with fish instead of beef.

Ample parking.”

“Staff are very friendly and polite
Food is amazing
The French toast are very unique
Definitely recommend this place and if I’m ever back in town I will definitely visit them again
It’s a good spot to let time go by if you’re waiting for events and they are kid friendly”

“Recently tried this place while visiting from out of town- so sad I won’t have this back home! Great food, really convenient, & got our food fast, have to try the churrasco the sauce is ��”

“This place is so good. Nice, clean and well decorated neighborhood restaurant, with consistently delicious authentic Viet food. My favorite dish here is the Bun Bo Hue (spicy beef noodle soup). The key is asking for mam ruoc (shrimp paste) to add to the broth, it makes extra pungent and salty. Love it.”

“Staff went above and beyond to get my order ready when I accidentally placed it for a later time.

The food is always great and staff is always friendly! I love the breakfast burritos 🌯”

“Experience exceptional dining at Jack restaurant, where the waitstaff and bartender provide top-notch service with a smile. They take the time to ask about your meal and ensure that every detail meets your satisfaction.”

“Service was fast and friendly! My Hot Pastrami sandwich was hot and...pastrami! Delicious as always!”

“The first time you were able and you had to do something about the situation you had with your family you had a good relationship and I think that you had to do that with the kids because I know that you had a bad experience and you were trying and I think you had a great ? and you were right to say it but I don’t know what to tell him about it and you have a lot more than that and you know I’m”

“Crack Bread is frigging Awesome Buy in Bulk”

“I had the flourintine benidict and it was amazing.💖 I will be going back”

“YUM!!! That’s all I have to say! I LOVE the food here! Healthy, tasty, and pricing is decent for the amount you receive (bowls).”

“While I hate to cheat on Martinez, CJ's is a larger, more sophisticated but not too, version of our once Ferry Street and a far less dysfunctional version of Whiskey Lane, the latter of which I frequented to write until I found CJs where you can meet new great people, or sit in your corner and write. All folks are good folks at CJs. And that's my run on sentence on that matter.”

“Great bar. Met my fiancé there we have so many memories there. Great shots, dancing, djs, pool, taco Tuesday and more. Its a lovely place to be!”

“Food and service have always been great. We usually take out (online ordering with the app is very convenient), but atmosphere is also very good. If I would recommend anything, maybe more room and parking for the busy times?”

“Stopped in for a late bite after shopping for new football supplies for my son. My son had the BBQ combo and all I had was the wedge salad, my son loved it and honestly it was one of the best damn salads I've had. Our server Adrian was super cool and really helpful, when we're in the area again we'll definitely come back!
The Superb-intendent 🍀”

“Amazing place good for friends and family ❤️”

“We've been going every Wednesday and it's been great. They switch out trucks every other week or so. Plenty of parking, there's a band that plays and there are some picnic tables as well as plenty of lawn area to sit at”

“Excellent cookies and friendly customers service would recommend to everyone locally and visitors. A gem we have in Hayward!”

“Great coffee simply the best”

“We get takeout from here every couple of months when we get together for our weekly movie night. We get 4 or 5 orders of BBQ mixed grill and several orders of fried shrimp and share it. It feeds about 8 or 10 of us and everyone likes it.”

“Tried their shrimp tacos and they were delicious. The portion was pretty good and filling. The salsas at the salsa bar were really good especially the green salsas and the orange sauce.”

“We enjoyed our meal. They were certainly generous with the fries!!”

“For the last several years we have been going to the Vacaville location but for some reason it has been closed for over a month so we decided to try this location, the food was excellent even the fries were better here, the little lady who was the only person at this location working by herself on a very busy Saturday was nice, the only thing that was not so nice was the cleanliness, the table was extremely dirty and so was the restaurant, It could use a good scrub down from top to bottom. We usually get the exact same thing every time we go and it was about 13.00 more expensive at this location.”

“The fastest and best tasting boba in the area! I always get my drink within 2 minutes, as long as it's not too busy. The oreo milik tea w boba or blended lemon refreshers are a must try”

“Great local bbq/deli/meat market. You can get any type of meat from raw brisket, their famous marinated ball tip, I've even seen gator for sale here before. They also have packages that are great if you're going camping that will contain eggs and other protein so you can pay one price and head out. They make one of the best breakfast sandwiches around. Not into meat? They also have salad options and seasoned fries in various flavors. The staff is very friendly as well as knowledgeable and will gladly assist you with any questions.”

“Delicious food, great service, nice atmosphere.

Ordered the beef bulgogi udon and beef bulgogi kimbap. Absolutely amazing. Very filling and reasonably priced.

Would definitely come back here and order more.”

“Its a family run cafe that is quiet and feels so chill and local. Very nice decorations and clean. I liked the hand written board. I felt the prices were perfectly reasonable and I was able to get some work done and find a seat without issue. Ill be back for sure”

“This is a new dish at the restaurant — Vietnamese beef rib pho with a rich, flavorful broth, tender meat, and fresh herbs. So simple, yet so delicious. Highly recommend — come and give it a try!”

“the best cheese steaks!! we live down the street from the Sunnyvale location. we eat there all the time. they never disappoint!! but I started eating at the SF location since 2008. still bomb”

“This place is so popular! I went on a Saturday night and there was a pretty constant stream of groups coming in to grab the yogurt. It’s clean, all the flavors/machines were functioning and all the toppings were well stocked and clean/fresh. There were some seating as well. There’s probably enough space in there for a few more seats along the wall on one side, but not complaining because at the pace of customers coming in, there was plenty of seating. Self serve, so minimal interaction with the staff but they seemed nice.
Will be back again soon!”

“This place is cozy and offers incredibly tasty milk bubble tea that’s worth trying quickly! The kiosks provide fast service and efficient ordering. I highly recommend it! Great service.”

“What a little gem we found to celebrate Father’s Day! We had the most delicious Norwegian Smoked Salmon Crepes with the freshest ingredients! Soooo delicious. We sat outside and it was so pretty! Service was great. Highly Recommend!”

“best place to take my kids. Love the options of flavors, the atmosphere and everything is very clean and maintained. I also love how they change the flavors of the frozen yogurt every once in a while and they.”

“Fast and Friendly service 🥰”

“I normally do not like burritos 🌯 but these are great !!!😋”

“So far, it's a good boba place to hang out. There are tons of flavors. You can choose from popping boba, aloe vera, grass jelly, cheese foam, and crystal pearls. My favorite combo lately has been brown sugar boba with oat milk and crème brûlée foam and kumquat Lemon green tea. Support local restaurant”

“My wife enjoys their salads. I don't particularly care for the food. A place with Paris in the name should have a traditional ham and cheese baguette like you can get EVERYWHERE IN PARIS!”

“I went on a Tuesday for the $5 Single Papa meal (cheeseburger, fries and a drink). It's a pretty good deal. It may not be enough food for some but I was happy with the serving size. It has been years since I have been to an A&W. This one is also a KFC. A bonus if you have a family that can't agree on food ”

“The Manager and the staff are absolutely amazing. Every time I walk in there I get such a friendly welcome with smiles. The food is out within a couple minutes, so nice so friendly, so sweet I love them all so professional. The place is always clean. They will come every single person that walks in the door. I will never go anywhere else but that location I’m a very happy unsatisfied customer.”

“First time customers. Jose was our server and he was excellent. Went above and beyond to explain the menu. Very kind. Suggest Crumbs have a senior menu.”

“who does not enjoy a good affordable meal out? something for everyone!”

“Got food order fast. Sat inside on a very hot day. Had a working air conditioning on a very hot day. 👍”

“Great location the staff is always happy to help even when they are busy they try their best to get people taken care of quickly and with a good attitude. Food fresh and good too.”

“Stopped here because we got into town late and most other places were closed. Very good food and will go back often when I come to town. Open 24 hours a day. Huge menu options.”

“Each time I've visited my burger has been excellent. I love that they also have onion rings on the menu and offer an alternative to soda for a drink option.”

“Far and away the best Japanese restaurant in Pleasant Hill. Nobuya may have the ambiance but the food falls very short by comparison. The okonomyaki is the best in the East Bay. Must try!”

“This marks my second visit to this establishment since my relocation to the area, and I am pleased to note that the offerings consistently uphold the high quality experienced during my initial visit. I selected the alambres and a cheese quesadilla. Despite my considerable appetite, I was unable to consume the entire portion, which speaks to the generous serving sizes provided. The food preparation area was impeccably maintained, and the staff exhibited exceptional courtesy. The only minor inconvenience is the absence of a dedicated dining area, which necessitates consuming the meal within one's vehicle or at home.”

“Their food is so good and now the service matches (finally)! They used to be pretty meh at service (we still go but it required patience). Not any more! Also, I used not want to go because of all the annoying “happy birthday” song. It’s long and loud. It didn’t happen for the 1.5 hr lunch. Yay!”

“Stopped in with high hopes and left feeling nicely caffeinated and content. The place has a bright, easygoing vibe, and the person at the counter was patient and friendly even as I took my sweet time deciding.

My only tiny letdown? I wished the seating felt a little less cramped—I was almost elbow-to-elbow with my own bag. Still, the drinks came out fast and exactly as ordered, and I’d happily come back. Just maybe with fewer belongings next time.”
