Our group of five really enjoyed the food. We tried a few salads and the calamari. The short ribs steak frites and pasta we had were very delicious. The profiteroles and lava cake was wonderful as well. The servers were good. We were glad we were seated to the back because it would have been too cold from the door opening and closing if we were any closer to the door. Also glad we had reservations otherwise we probably would’ve had a long wait.

Most of the food was served cold. There could have been more options. Its an utter waste to charge 125 per person for simply not so good food.

We had not been to La Fontaine for 6+ months, so were reminded how excellent this restaurant is. Food was delicious and portioned well since we were able to split the daily special appetizer with buratta, prosciutto, tomato and toast. Then each had a main. My wife enjoined the sole involtini with asparagus rolled inside the fish and a buttery caper sauce. I loved the spicy pasta with roasted eggplant. A glass of wine each topped off an enjoyable meal. Wait staff are incredible, friendly and knowledgeable.

Our dinner at La Fontaine was an absolute delight. The food was superb; the wait staff were helpful in sharing suggestions and guidance; the ambiance of the restaurant was reserved. It was our best meal thus far in Walnut Creek.

We had been here before and heard it was good. We tried again and it was just okay. The food was priced high but didn’t meet expectations. The duck was chewy and a poor cut perhaps. The special soul was good, my mushroom ravioli was fair. Service was slow….Wont go back…
