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.

My treat for Mother's Day was a trip to Bridges...and it did not disappoint.We sat outside on the patio, and it was lovely. The food...avocado soup, asparagus salad, omelets, halibut and French toast casserole, chocolate tart...were all delicious.Our waiter Ben was superb...noticing water levels as soon as they were half empty.We will return on a normal day...a hands down 5 !!!

Esin has been a neighborhood jewel since opening in 1998. The name Esin is not only the name of one of the owners but also means âinspirationâ. The food is the passion of Chef & Owners Curtis and Esin deCarion. They strive to create cuisine that is fres

Went at last minute for lunch on a weekend day. Arrived just before 2 their closing time, and was not rushed. The food and service (William was our server) was great. Started with Bloody Maryâs and shared the poke appetizer. There were cherry tomatoes in with the tuna and avocado which I found a bit odd. The salmon fish tacos were really good and my guest had the mussels as her main, which were great and priced right. Had not been to the Peasant and the Pear in about 10 years, but will definitely go back.

Driving from Bay Area to Sacramento via the back way, we came into Alamo and discovered this ageless cafe. Well, it is only 70 years. It has the feel of yesteryear and a traditional diner-style menu to match. It is so small, yet people crammed in and get served with a smile at the few little tables or a counter. Nothing fancy or romantic here. You can watch the cook (not a chef) at the griddle as he flips pancakes. Tasty breakfast treats, and we bet lunch is just as good. Prices are low. Refillable coffee is $1.50. I said to son Dan, "We have nothing quite like this in Sacramento.â Even the guest checks are old-fashioned hand-written forms. It is all so personal. If you appreciate American basics, Alamo Cafe is highly recommended.

Went here with a group of ten for a business dinner. We ordered oysters and deviled eggs for appetizers. They were ok. Eggs didnât have a lot of flavor. The oysters were fresh and tasty. There were a variety of dishes ordered, burgers were popular and those that had them said they were good, the pork chop was popular as well and so was the Caesar salad. I had the buratta and tomato salad. The tomatoes were very fresh and the buratta was just ok. Service was ok, not great.

There aren't many places around here where you can sit outside and enjoy a pleasant breakfast, but Peasant's Courtyard is one of the best. Their courtyard is small but nice, with a burbling fountain to enjoy. They have all the usual breakfast items, plus their sinfully delicious fritters coated in cinnamon sugar -- a nice "appetizer" that will serve about four. My husband had a ham steak -- large enough to feed two people for a main course (at least by our standards). I had a delicious, perfectly cooked omelet with mushrooms, spinach and green chilies, served with breakfast potatoes. The potatoes were nicely seasoned, but I thought the serving size was a bit skimpy. Service was OK, not great, and our young server was flummoxed by my request for more tea--both hot water and a fresh tea bag. They have a small, rather tight parking lot, but if that's full you can go a short way up the street and park in the strip mall.

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.
