“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 👍🏻“

“This is my first time to dine-in. Plenty of parking on weekdays. Waiting and checking in process is on a tablet, make everything easy.

Their lion king is still the same tasty as some years ago. The only thing not getting 5 stars is the A5 Wagu special dish. The wagu is too thin like ham.... it is not worth to try.“

“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.“

“Excellent! Tonight was one of the best meals we’ve had here and are so happy to be able to continue to support the restaurant. So thank you for some of the most fresh best tasting Chinese food in Walnut Creek!“

“Havana Restaurant is always a vibe. The atmosphere is effortlessly chic, the cocktails are perfectly done, and the overall experience just feels right every time.

Zach, the owner, has created something truly special—you can feel the intention behind it. Jeff, the manager, keeps everything running smoothly without missing a beat, and JP (el Diablo) at the bar is a standout—confident, precise, and always delivers.

It’s the kind of place you don’t just visit once… you keep coming back.“

“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!“

“Love everything about Shadowbrook winery. It's a hidden gem tucked right in the Northgate neighborhood. The ambience is stunning just like or better than any other upscale winery in Napa. This last visit we had dinner sharing the special short rib, the Burrata appetizer and the avocado salad and everything was delicious. Love that you can purchase just a glass or a bottle or even a beer if you're non-wine drinker. It's our go to spot when we have friends come in from out of town.“

“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.“

“First visit. Everything was delicious. Poutine fries, a side salad, and the Pittsburgh Cheese Steak. Will definitely be back.“

“Best poke place, delicious sauces and fresh fish 👍“

“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 had such a great experience at Nick the Greek in Walnut Creek thanks to Edwin and Tonya. They were so helpful walking me through the menu and making recommendations, and because of them I tried the Chicken Souvlaki Pita for the first time. Now I’m obsessed – I’ve already gone back twice in one week because it’s so good. On top of the delicious food, I genuinely enjoy talking with Edwin and Tonya every time I stop by; they are incredibly kind, friendly, and make the place feel welcoming. I’ll definitely keep coming back!“

“Amazing sushi bar! The fish is incredibly fresh and you can really taste the quality in every bite. Everything we ordered was super delicious and beautifully prepared. Great atmosphere and friendly service — definitely one of the best sushi spots. I will absolutely come back to IKOI again!“

“Great service delicious food cozy atmosphere. Awesome Happy Hour 👍👍👍👍👍“

“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!“

“This is a perfectly adequate thai restaurant. It appears to be a small family operation, and they were nice enough and service was decent and food was edible. I understand that this restaurant has been here a long time, so it seems like a reliable option.

The atmosphere is okay. It's just a small restaurant with plain decor. Fairly basic but clean.“

“Really good food and great service.“

“My daughter and I had dinner here tonight. It's a cozy place, very clean, tables well spaced and the service is excellent. We had chicken and lamb kabobs. The meat was nicely spiced, flavorful not hot and cooked to perfection, moist and delicious. We also had the eggplant appetizer and will be ordering that again for sure on our next visit!“

“Beautiful products. My order was very carefully packed and arrived quickly. Excellent service.“

“So good and very pleasant stuff!!“

“Fabulous Food, Drinks and Ambiance! Love this place!!! Five Stars!!!“

“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 enjoyed the Carne Asada plate 💯 very polite and great customer service 😎✅ Every time we come and visit we will stop in from Seattle. Buena comida muy buen precios y hablan español 😊✅“

“Have a good variety to please everyone“

“love the food and the family“

“While the food was really good, the service was even better. The team was super attentive and quickly moved us outside to a chill, pretty patio when we asked.
Our server remembered our drinks, suggested a killer shareable, and everything arrived hot and perfectly timed. The outdoor vibe was relaxed with zero rush.
Ideal for date nights or casual catch-ups. We’ll be back!“

“Vanessa’s Bistro is hands down my favorite restaurant in Walnut Creek. I like to get out and try new places but yet I always find myself coming back to VB2 for amazing food, drinks, staff, and atmosphere. It’s my favorite place to take friends that have never tried it. If you want to impress in a casual way it’s perfect for a first date or girls night out too. Try the Claypot Rice Or Prawns with mango and garlic butter noodles! Potstickers Chicken rolls All of it!“

“literally my go-to sushi spot in wc. i’ve been coming here forever and the service is always amazingly spot-on & food is soooo yummy. i also like to do to-go orders whenever im feeling down.

the food is sooo delicious (i am addicted to the korean ramen lol) and the prices are honestly unbeatable for the area (walnut creek be expensive). seriously too good!!!!“

“Awesome food and presentation. Friendly service!“

“Excellent burgers, Onion rings and fries. Best burger I’ve ever had! Highly recommend.“

“Great Lunch Menu Specials!!!“

“Whether I'm eating there in person or getting food to go, I'm never disappointed by this restaurant. The staff is so attentive and very kind. I can't think of a place that prepares their fried foods as great as them. If you're unsure what to order, I highly recommend their Honey Walnut Prawns and their Crispy Spicy Beef.

They also have a wonderful lunch special and a wide variety of options on their menu. Their food is delicious and it's a great place if you're looking to get a quick meal during your lunch break. They also package their to-go food well. I'm never concerned that food will spill or leak on my drive back home. They are located in a great spot that has plenty of parking around the restaurant. They also have dim sum and soup dumplings!“

“We are lucky to have such a wonderful Thai restaurant in our backyard. And I am so excited that they’ve added Khao Soi on the menu. Khao Soi is a chicken noodle specialty from Chiang Mai. I had it today and it was delicious and so authentic.“

“what a gem this spot is, I loved the chicken kabab plate, beef shawerma fries and the lahmbajin manakish they were soo good and the service and staff were friendly thank you I will definitely be back again.“

“Excellent house-made noodles!“

“Absolutely wonderful food and service. Will be back to try other delights.“

“Some of the reviews I’ve read for Daryoush were quite critical and I have ti disagree. Many complain about the portion size but I felt for the price portions were fair. The food was properly cooked and seasoned. The staff was friendly and it was a quiet atmosphere.“
