Perfect atmosphere, staff and most of all food.After being disappointed at a different BBQ place in the area I was extremely happy to have found Sauced..I had a combo plate of ribs and brisket and I'd have to say that the meat was cooked to perfection. The place is quite big with big screen TV's for watching sports. We opted to sit outside and enjoy the weather as they have a nice garden area. Staff was very attentive and everything went smoothly for such a big place... Price point is not cheap but we felt that we had good value for our dollar.. Definitely will come back in the future...

This is a small, locally owned place located near Lunardi's market. They have indoor and outdoor seating options.They are known for their burgers (the Mona burger is awesome) but they have really good salads too.They have a variety of options for their fries, the portions are huge and great for sharing.They have a nice selection of wines by the glass and on Tuesdays bottles of wine are 40% off.

The Cheesecake Factory offers something for everyone featuring a wide variety of over 200 menu items prepared fresh to order each day, plus over 30 legendary varieties of the Finest Cheesecake.
This popular place is lovely. The decor is splendid, the seating comfortable, the menu wonderful and the pastry display out of this world. The service was the worst I have encountered anywhere! We ordered drinks and they were finally delivered. The coffee was cold and old. Asked for new cup and that was excellent. Finally the waiter came to take the order, all was fine. The place was noisy and usually that would be fun, but this was more than that. Half of the food arrived; nicely presented and we shared since the other food hadn't come. The second dish had not arrived fifteen minutes later and the waiter said it would be there soon. Finally we got tired of waiting and asked for the bill and the waiter said our second dish was being made. We said it was a little late to deliver the missing food. The waiter finally brought the bill and asked if we wanted dessert. So unaware of the time we had been there and the poor service we received. This may be a grand place to eat, celebrate, enjoy, but not for us on this visit. Cannot give it a good rating.We are so sorry for this disappointing experience with us. You have every right to feel the way you do. We will address this with our team. Next time if there is anything about your experience that can be improved, please let our managers know so we can do our best to make it right. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us.

Ruth's Chris Steak House specializes in serving aged USDA Prime steaks, broiled in a trademark 1800-degree oven and served on a plate heated to 500 degrees to ensure the steak stays "sizzling" hot. To experience fine dining at its best ⦠Just follow the s
We've always had great dining experiences here with excellent service and great food. This time, things seemed a little off with our server not really on top of the game. Everything we ordered was delicious; the bone-in filet mignon, the ravioli appetizer, the mushrooms, and the creamed spinach were all prepared excellently. It did take a little longer than normal for our main dishes to come out; there's a leisurely pace and then there's slow, and this time seemed the latter. I had the scrumptious cheesecake; rich and creamy, but I think it could've used a bit more of the raspberry coulis. My came without the usual offer of sugar and so I asked for some. Minutes later, no sugar. I finally saw our server and asked again for the sugar after which it finally came. It's little things like that that make a dining experience great or not; I had to ask for sugar twice when I should have had to ask at all. I will say that their servings are huge; I ate about half of everything and took the rest home, which made for a nice meal the next day. We'll be back but hoping for a better experience.

This a really great breakfast and lunch bistro and weekend brunch is also served. The breakfast menu is extensive and just about everything is really great. The menu includes a variety of omelets and scrambles, pancakes, and Mexican entrees. For lunch add sandwiches, salads, and soups. The bistro bakes its own pastries and pies which are topnotch. The pies are excellent. Sunrise is very popular due the quality of food and service and there might be a short wait on the weekend, but line moves quickly. The servers are very helpful and efficient. It is located in a strip mall with a large parking lot.

Casual, noisy, but excellent selections of healthy choices. My companionâs turkey burger was terrific and my fish tacos were delicious. Pizzas and a wide range of vegetarian selections. Full bar, nice range of wines by the glass. Great location in the mall next to Macyâs.

Fleming's Walnut Creek, CA is an ongoing celebration of exceptional steak and wine. Located in Contra Costa County in the East Bay down from the Broadway Plaza Shopping Center off the 680 freeway.
Because we both work there was no time this week to celebrate our 38th wedding anniversary.....on a guess I contacted Fleming's who were able to give us a table on the very last minute. We had a reservation within 30 minutes of when I called in and the service was impeccable add to it the outstanding food and it was a very special evening for us both.My husband had the ribeye steak along with a side of spectacularly good rainbow carrots. I had the French onion soup and carpaccio for my main meal and everything could not have been better. Cocktails, wine were absolutely fabulous and we really appreciate the outstanding service!!

We ordered a couple of appetizers which included octopus and the clam chowder. Both were excellent. Bread served was also very good...toasty crust and soft interior sour dough. However, the entrees were just ok. My wife had a soft shell crab sandwich which was far too small for the bread it accompanied. I ordered the fish and chips and it was good, nothing more. Should have ordered the king salmon. Oh well. Service was fine, nothing special. Would go back.

Pacific Catch is a WestCoast Fish House dedicated to delivering high quality sustainable seafood with a unique perspective. From the day we opened we've been mindful about where our ingredients come from and how to bring to life the vibrant flavors and fe
My husband had never been there and decided to check out their happy hour. The patio was pretty empty for a Friday happy hour. Their happy hour menu has quite a few poke or ceviche options, neither of which sounded appealing to us at the time. We ordered their calamari and a tempura shrimp roll. They were both okay, but nothing special. With these two appetizers and 2 glasses of happy hour wine and 1 happy hour beer the bill was $42. Not the best value for the money. My husband called this visit "a swing and a miss". There are other options in the Walnut Creek area with better seafood happy hour items such as Wences.
