Good drinks and food. Chicken bowl was delicious. Even though it was a little spicy it was still enjoyable.

Focused, but delicious menu. Very few Caribbean restaurants in the Bay Area - this is among the best I've ever seen. Angela was a fantastic server and the drinks/apps were amazing. Definitely worth visiting - I'll be back very soon!

Nice place. Good service. Lobster corn dog way over priced and not that great. Pork belly tacos were very good with pineapple and spices that complemented the pork. The empanadas were very good as was the coconut gelato that accompanied the not so good Keylime small tarts. The tarts were so small that you couldn't really get a good taste of the filling.

If you're searching for an unforgettable dining experience in Walnut Creek, look no further than Lita's. From the moment you walk through the doors, you're transported into a beautifully curated atmosphere that blends modern elegance with warm Caribbean-Latin charm. Every detail—from the lighting to the music to the decor—sets the tone for an upscale yet relaxed vibe that invites you to stay awhile. Now let's talk about the food—absolutely phenomenal. Lita's doesn't just serve meals; they serve experiences. The flavors are bold, authentic, and carefully balanced, highlighting Caribbean and Latin American roots with a modern twist. The jerk chicken is tender and spiced to perfection, and the oxtail empanadas are downright addictive. The seafood dishes are incredibly fresh, and the sauces... don't even get me started. Flavor explosions in every bite. Pair it with one of their signature cocktails—like the Guava Mojito or the Lita's Old Fashioned—and you'll understand why this place is always buzzing. The bar staff knows their craft, and the drinks are as beautiful as they are delicious. And the service? Top-tier. Friendly, attentive, and professional without being overbearing. You can tell the staff takes pride in what they do—and it shows. Whether you're out for a romantic dinner, celebrating with friends, or just want to treat yourself to an elevated evening out, Lita's is the spot. It's fresh, it's vibrant, and it's undeniably special.

Upon entering the resturant, the decor, the music and the beautiful set up of the table and chairs made me realize that this will be a great dining experience. The menu was full of amazing dishes and once I took the first bite of my dish, the flavors, the smells and the texture of the foods took me on a vacation of an amazing delight of a party in my mouth. Each bite was a journey of flavors.

Restaurant environment is good. Location is convenient service is so so, waitress kept stopping asking if everything's okay despite we are talking. Food I order is way too sweet, shrimp is over cooked, doesn't taste good. Disappointed

Innovative & delicious Caribbean meal! Great neighborhood gem for date night or group outing.
Opentable Diner
Everything was excellent. The food was very flavorful and the service was great. We went for Father's Day and my husband really enjoyed it. I would recommend this restaurant, if you have not tried it before.

I've come to LITA for various occasions and with different company (friends, significant other, family), and the food & service have always been outstanding. Great cocktails, too. If you see it on the menu, get the crab soup! It's the closest thing I've had to my late grandmother's soup.

I'm STILL dreaming about the steak and oxtail! I went for my bday dinner and was NOT disappointed! I'll be back soon
Had a reservation for 9:15, watched them seat 6 groups before us and made us wait for over 35 minutes for a table, after that we sat down and waited another 20 mins before saying let's leave because a server never came to our table, will not be coming back here absolutely horribly poor service

Always a pleasure. Overcooked/under-seasoned rice but everything else was just great! Girls night was a huge success and we felt like queens!!

Lita was exactly what I had been looking for!! I celebrated my birthday with a few close friends, and our server Raya made sure to take great care of us the entire night. The ambiance was nice, others seemed to be enjoying their experiences as well and the food was AMAZING.

Came on time, Host tried to give us the worst seat in the house right by the door (with a reservation) asked for a different table and was told only the bar was open. When a new table quickly opened up we were denied. Food was decent. Pretty loud. Had a minor issue, manager ignored. This was my anniversary dinner. Not very pleased overall

This was our first time at lita. This restaurant was recommended on the TV program "Check Please". Delicious Baramunda and curry shrimp pasta! We plan to return!
