    2nd time to Horatio's this year, Thanksgiving and now Christmas Day. The Holiday menu was extensive and all items tried each meal were very good to outstanding. On Christmas Day, our dinner server was Chad and he was exemplary in his attention to our meal. The restaurant was full and he had a large number of tables to serve from what we could could see. However, from bread and drinks to desert, he hardly missed a beat. Our previous Thanksgiving dinner was also excellent and the sever was very good as well. On this occasion, my wife had Seafood Pasta and I had Sea Bass stuffed with crab, also excellent. Try the key lime pie for desert if they have it, outstanding. We plan to go back soon for lunch or dinner. Plenty of parking with easy access from the freeway 5 minutes away. GN Alameda, CA

    Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by hostess and immediately seated. Server promptly greeted us and we were able to get our beverages and start our trips to the buffet. Wonderful selection and churro pancakes suggested by the server completed our experience.

    De La Torre's never fails to offer and serve a Wonderful Lunch or Dinner at an Excellent Value! Everything on the Menu is worth trying but the Daily Specials just put De La Torre's a cut above. Pleasanton is home to De La Torre's but it truly is the Local Gem of the Tri-Valley!
