- BBobbySan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoFrom the moment we walked into Elia, we knew we were in for a treat. The atmosphere is absolutely stunning—think glowing blue lights, natural decor, and walls adorned with beautifully spaced art pieces that felt like a gallery. Sitting across from my wife, I couldn’t have asked for a better view. The service was equally impressive. We were warmly greeted at the door and invited to enjoy a drink at the bar while waiting for our table amidst a lively crowd. Our server, Lilia, was outstanding. Despite being busy, she made sure we were well taken care of and never felt overlooked. Now, the food—wow. We started with the octopus, followed by the filet mignon and lobster paella. Each dish was cooked to perfection. The paella was packed with rich flavors and seafood, and the lobster tail was perfectly done. The filet mignon? Easily one of the best steaks I’ve had in Walnut Creek, perfectly seasoned and tender. To finish, we indulged in the chocolate cake, which was nothing short of spectacular—the best I’ve ever had. Elia gave us an amazing night filled with exceptional food, ambiance, and service. We’ll absolutely be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience. Thank you, Elia, for making our evening unforgettable!More infoElia - Walnut CreekPrice: Expensive• Greek• Walnut Creek•4.7

- TTimSan Francisco Bay Area •3 reviews5.0Dined on 24 Dec 2024Food and service was great. Christmas eve is usually a fixed menu which is notmally a standard menu item. This was surprising as the regular menu was being offered we sdrived a little early and we were seated but not rused every item was hot and fresh and the service is what we have come to expect great all aroundMore infoLocanda PositanoPrice: Moderate • Italian• Lafayette•4.8

- JJulieVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •34 reviews5.0Dined on 4 Dec 2024The food was outstanding. Not many people in restaurant, but enough. Only one person serving the tables…NOT ENOUGH! He tried and was gracious but couldn’t meet the demand well. The music was extremely loud. All that said, we would absolutely return!More infoBarrancoPrice: Moderate• Peruvian• Lafayette•4.7
