Walnut Creek Restaurants

We sat at the bar and had a fabulous meal with excellent drinks.

Always an outstanding meal at La Sen - in my mind the best food in Walnut Creek The French onion soup is just the way you imagine it should be - golden melted cheese on top of the soup bowl with rich beef broth and caramelized onions. The crab cakes are also delicious - fried to perfection and lots of crab lumps The salmon is cooked perfectly- a beautiful sear and cooked to medium rare in the middle The rack of lamb includes 4 generous racks and were cooked to a perfect medium rare with a delicious sauce. Side vegetables are also delicious and cooked perfectly Crème brûlée comes with a crispy sugar glaze Highly recommend

Excellent food. Tuna tacos and empanadas 🙌🏾 will return

From 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!
