   What can I say, we’ve been going there since they opened, and they have never failed to amaze us with their food and they always have great service

   We celebrated our wedding anniversary at the Restorative and had a remarkable meal and evening. We sat at the kitchen facing bar and spoke with the owner Jason and chef Tom. Each dish is expertly thought out and prepared. A wonderful mix of fine dining in a relaxed and unpretentious atmosphere. We fully understand why they consistently get great reviews in the entire Bay Area.

   Wouldn’t go if you have to sit at bar. It is really food prep area so loud and distracting and you have no server. They automatically add 20% service fee for anyone at bar so that tells you how bad the service is at bar. Food was good though very limited menu and expensive

   The Naan and gnocchi was unbelievable. Amazing layers of flavor. Halibut was cooked to perfection.

    We had a remarkable Valentine’s dining experience here. The chefs here are creative & talented & we were so happy to find a restaurant serving food like this in this area, as we have found these kind of choices to be lacking. Between the two of us we had the house made naan with liver pâté that was outstanding, the scallops starter, the sirloin and cod entrees & the most delicious goat cheesecake for dessert. Everything was cooked & seasoned to perfection and the presentation was on point. Table service was friendly and at a comfortable pace. Don’t let the location in the strip mall fool you- the food being created in this restaurant is as good as many fine dining places in big foodie cities. We will definitely be back Next time we will reserve for seating at the bar so we can watch these chefs in action. Bravo!👏🏻
