“Great flavors! I’m not avoidant of dairy but this is is my new favorite ice cream place! The fact that the ice cream is made from cashew milk adds a unique flavor to everything! From vanilla to matcha (my favorite)
I definitely recommend to give it a try“

“I recently discovered I have Celiac. It’s so special to meet people that speak my new language and make incredible food that I can safely enjoy!

The food is amazing and delicious!

I’ll be back next week!! 😋“

“So many awesome Russian goods to buy at Babushka Market and Deli! Finally got to try their Piroskis, but they were running out already at noon. They didn't have the Beef & Chedder & Jalapeno so I changed my order to the Beef & Mushroom which was still good. They can heat it up for you if you will eat it right away, or you can take it home and heat it up when you are ready to eat it! Also tried the strawberry cake, the worker said it was her favorite cake. It was good, but wayyyyy too sweet. If you don't want a super sweet cake, the strawberry cake is NOT for you!“

“This is our 4th time having Ellie’s Pizzeria. Our favorite so far is the cheese with the creamy garlic sauce . The all meat is amazing as well as the calzone. Can’t wait to try other things as everything we have tried has been fantastic. Highly recommend eating here 👍🏻“

“Delicious and fresh. Excellent vegetarian food. Great takeout service and online ordering.“

“The best BLTA! Food is served quickly and staff is very attentive. If I’m going downtown I’m usually stopping for Sunrise. I’ve never had something I didn’t like from here. I bring my friends and family here because it’s the best.“

“I placed a mobile order for pickup and completely messed up my own order by accident. It was just one of those days. I accidentally ordered one coffee with two flavors instead of two separate coffees with one flavor each. I was honestly embarrassed when I realized what I had done, but the barista was so kind and gracious about fixing it. They were clearly SO BUSY but she didn’t make me feel bad or make a fuss about it at all. Of course I paid for the second drink and took responsibility for the mistake, but I really appreciated her patience and great customer service. I wish I had asked for her name. Thank you again!“

“If you're like me, and you are obsessed with Xiao Long Bao, you will LOVE this spot.

It can be tough to get solid Dim Sum in the East Bay, so this is a much needed spot in Walnut Creek.

Their Xiao Long Bao are perfection, especially the hot and spicy pork ones.

Their Siu Mai is solid too - highly recommend the shrimp and pork.

Their sautéed string beans with garlic salt are top notch, too. Perfectly seasoned.

This is a great lunch spot, with quick service. Will be back again soon!“

“Great menu....creative choices Welcoming atmosphere Friendly & Expedient service“

“Taqueria La Plaza is a neighborhood gem!

My husband and I love walking here for lunch: He usually gets a burrito and I go between enchiladas and a breakfast burrito (which is offered ALL DAY!). There are so many meat choices! They throw in a bowl of chips and unlimited access to their salsa bar. I also enjoy their aqua fresca or horchata on occasion.

You can eat indoors or outdoors (both covered and sunny tables), or take your food to go.“

“Freshest seafood with great service.“

“It’s ok. The broth is solid but the meat is very spare. Got the largest size bowl with everything and it had maybe two pieces of tendon and one of tripe. Few meatballs, few slices of beef. Coming from SF I’d say even yummy yummy / y&y is better.“

“I always make an “excuse” to visit ØL. Such a great vibe, amazing curated selection of brews and down to earth staff. I lived in SF forever and moved out to the East Bay a few years back and this place is equal to or beyond some of the best beer cafes in the city. Huge thanks to the staff here - this place is awesome!“

“Prologue is an absolute treasure tucked inside the Walnut Creek Public Library, making it the perfect spot for book lovers and coffee enthusiasts alike. Imagine checking out a book and then cozying up with a delicious cup of coffee and a fresh pastry—it doesn’t get better than this! The highlight of my visit is their Eggspresso. It’s a creamy, velvety masterpiece that pairs the boldness of espresso with an indulgent, smooth texture. A must-try for anyone looking for a unique coffee experience. The staff are incredibly friendly, and the welcoming presence of the owner adds such a personal touch and extra layer of hospitality to the space which is rare to find. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick pick-me-up or planning to spend the afternoon reading, Prologue is the perfect place to unwind. Highly recommended!“

“If I could give Ananas Café in Walnut Creek 10 stars, I absolutely would. This place is a hidden gem for anyone who loves a cozy, welcoming café with amazing quality.

The coffee is top-notch—rich, smooth, and clearly made with care. Whether you’re grabbing a quick espresso or sitting down with a latte, you can taste the difference. Their pastries and light bites are just as impressive—fresh, delicious, and perfect to pair with your drink.

The atmosphere is what really makes Ananas stand out. It’s warm, relaxed, and beautifully set up—great for working, meeting friends, or just enjoying some quiet time. You instantly feel comfortable the moment you walk in.

“Everything was absolutely amazing!! We’ve passed by this place so many times, I’m sad we didn’t try this place sooner! We have eaten plenty of sushi, and I’m happy to say that everything we ordered at Toyosu was SO delicious. Not pictured was the o toro hamachi, which was definitely my favorite. Now we’ve tried and enjoyed 4/4 of our ordered dishes, we will 100% return.“

“I came just after closing on a Sunday night and the owners son was so loving and accommodating to me and my pregnant wife. He opened up for us and made us a delicious cheese pizza. This kind of loving service is almost nonexistent in today’s society. Thank you guys so much.“

“I love this place. I have always seen one new truck every week. The variety is amazing. The place is always clean and kept as a safe environment for kids. An excellent spot for a first date or a family outing! Oh yah the customer service...I saw a lady drop her kids food...it was replaced within 5 mins from the manager. Little things like that keep me coming back :)“
