Wonderful experience at this new restaurant in Livermore. Charming interior. Where we sat was a little niche right inside the front door, a perfect spot for our party of four. My Ruby Drop cocktail was great. All our dishes were flavorful. You could tell the restaurant had a talented chef, as all the dishes were presented well. The patatas had a sauce with a nice kick. The fried calamari was notably great with a cornmeal dusting, nice and crispy. The albondigas were delicious, nice sauce. The croquetas were also very good, nice crispy coating. The chicken paella was good, although it was different than what I'd had before, so maybe I'd never had a real authentic paella before, I don't know. The churros for dessert with the Guittard chocolate dip were fantastic. We definitely needed either more churros or a spoon to dole out more of the chocolate. We ended up using one of our other spoons and cleaned out that little bowl! Excellent meal with a great restaurant atmosphere.

I am one of those people that can cook well so I am VERY picky when I choose to go out and eat. Absolutely incredible food and service and had great music playing! I came here on a work lunch break and was SO happy I did. Highly recommend! They switched out the menu this morning. I got the grilled octopus, arugula salad, jamon croquettes and the potato "marbles".

L Campos is one of our favorites for Spanish Tapas. As a tapas place food comes out as it is ready. So if you like sharing, as we do, this gives you and your guests time to talk and enjoy each other. Sadly, the ordering system doesn't seem to be setup to sequence the food as requested. All in all the, place has nice indoor and outdoor seating in downtown Livermore. There is a new parking structure to help with parking. Next time we will ask server for guidance on appetizers with different flavor profiles so we don't end up with too many things tasting the same. Give them a try.

L Campo: Upscale Vibes with Room for Culinary Improvement! We visited L Campo in downtown Livermore for a Friday lunch. The restaurant is beautifully situated, featuring lovely floral arrangements outside and a very pleasant, upscale atmosphere inside. We had no trouble finding seating, and the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked in. The Starters Since we were eyeing the paella (which takes about 30 minutes to prep), we kicked things off with some appetizers: * Arugula Salad: This was the highlight of the meal! The goat cheese was fantastic, and the glazed pears added a perfect sweetness. Highly recommended if you want something fresh. * Bread & Butter: The bread arrived warm, though the crust was a bit on the harder side. However, the butter was at a perfect temperature--nice and easy to spread. The Mains For our main courses, we opted for the Chicken Paella and the Lamb Shank. Unfortunately, both dishes fell a bit flat for us: * Chicken Paella: While the presentation was fine, the flavors weren't particularly extraordinary or special. * Lamb Shank: Similar to the paella, it was "just okay." Having tried various Spanish spots across the East Bay, we felt the quality of these specific dishes didn't quite justify the higher price tag. The Verdict: L Campo has the ambiance and the service down perfectly, but the kitchen felt like it might have been having an "off" day during our visit. Given their strong overall ratings, we'd be open to returning to try different menu items, but we'll likely skip the paella and lamb shank next time.

Overall we had a nice dinner at L Campo. We visited on a busy Sunday evening and managed to get the last table outside. The weather was nice so this wasn't too bad. The inside of the restaurant is lovely, but even with the open layout it was quite packed. Our server was Duda, she was very nice and had recommendations for us on the menu. Some of the items we ordered were a hit or miss, hence the 3 stars. -aged jamon iberico was delicious, but 5 slices of meat and only 4 pieces of bread? -fried calamari was too salty -l campo paella - the chicken was good but overall the dish was under flavored and the only vegetable was big chunks of green bell pepper -churros for dessert were quite messy and very small pieces for the price We'd like to give this restaurant another chance in the future because they have a vast menu with more to try, plus the service and ambiance is nice. I hope they can improve on the flavor aspect of the dishes.

This was my first visit, and The Wife's second. We didn't have any mains or paellla, but we're interested in the mushroom and shallot vegetarian option. So we had a few tapas, which is not unusual. I started with a "Smokey and Famous" which is a mezcal powered version of a naked and famous, my favorite cocktail. There was a smoke bubble on top of the glass when it was delivered - fun! For food, we ordered bread and butter, an arugula salad, vegetable croquettes, a Spanish tortilla (which has no tortillas in it, as they helpfully mention when you order). Later we had churrosndor dessert. I could have had another drink from a large choice of whiskys or wines, as well as digestives, but budget was a factor for now. The service was very quick, almost too fast. We arrived before 5 on a Friday evening, and seating was no problem. Very friendly staff. Someone checked with us near the end, either a manager or owner or both, to see if we had any concerns. We did not. L Campo is part of the upscaling of Livermore food options, started by Range Life, and continued by places like Wingen. Older establishments that have skated by need to look over their shoulder at places like this.

We were sat right next to the kitchen at a very intimate table for 2. Even though we were close to the action, it wasn't bothersome. Our server was amazing and checked on us pretty consistently which we appreciated. The little conitos were amazing for an hors d'oeuvre type bite. The other two small plates were not very special: the tostada type dish with the anchovy was just ok and the patatas bravas were soggy cubed potatoes versus fried. We enjoyed our main dish, the Valenciana paella! Our server offered us a few sauce choices and it was tender, rice was al dente, and so flavorful. I loved our cocktails and the CA almond cake was AMAZING!! It was so light and didn't put my tummy in overload. Thanks L Campo!

Was happy to see a more upscale restaurant in Downtown Livermore. I've been here twice and both times it was busy. Host wasn't as welcoming, bartender was great, server was great. They don't take reservations, just walk ins. And they have a lot of tables either. The restaurant however is very cute and chic. Great place to have a cocktail and small bites. Definitely wouldn't recommend coming here hungry. We had to wait over 45 mins to get a table on a Saturday night around 8pm so by the time we sat we were starving. Since it's mainly tapas (small plates), we left hungry still. But the food was good at least. Anchovie toast: 8/10 Calamari: 8/10 Grilled beef: 9/10 Grilled octopus: 10/10 Grilled chorizo: 8/10 Seafood paella: 10/10 I would come back, but on a half full belly.

My Cousin and I ventured out to downtown Livermore last Thursday and she found this restaurant on Yelp! The service was on point. It's a very nice intimate restaurant. The selections of food are great portions even some items that allow servings for two people. The prices are I would say a little above moderate but well worth the price due to the quality of the food. This is a great place for a date or a ladies night or even a mini family dinner.

We were invited to a belated birthday dinner. We looked forward to a wonderful Spanish meal of Tapas and Paella. L Campo does not take reservations and seating is first come, first served. We were seated outside. At first, I was concerned that it might get cold because I didn't see any heaters and I had left my jacket in my car. We lucked out because the weather held and there was no wind. Menus were presented and we were asked if we wanted still or sparkling water. We got the bubbly stuff and one of us ordered a Coke. We verified with our server, Duda, that one Tapa and two Entrees would be the right amount of food. Heirloom Tomato Toast - 3 - It was fine, but we were comparing it to a Tomate con Pan that we had had in London a couple of years ago. That one was made with toasted homemade bread, rubbed with fresh garlic, then rubbed with ripe tomatoes imported from Barcelona and drizzled with olive oil. Patatas Bravas - 2 - In a Chinese restaurant, one can expect differences in flavors and textures from dishes with the same name because of regional ingredients. There's no reason for this to be different in Spanish food. I prefer "dry" potatoes served with an Aioli and/or a Bravas Sauce. This one was too wet with Bravas Sauce and the Aioli Sauce was only served after we were asked if we wanted it. 12+ Month Jamon Serrano - 5 - Perfectly yummy. 24+ Month Jamon Iberico - 5 - Even yummier. We had experienced both meats in Barcelona but our hosts had not. I asked if we could possibly order a split plate and pay the difference but alas it was not possible because these items were portioned in advance. These Jamons come from different breeds of pigs raised on different diets. Compared side by side, you can choose your preference based on flavor and texture. Baked Cauliflower with Romesco Sauce - 4 - Was good. There are so many variations that I can't decide what style of Romesco Sauce I prefer. I think that next time, I'll order the sauce on the side so I can decide how much to use. 48-Hour Beef Short Ribs - 5 - I'm not sure that Beef served without the bone can technically be called a Short Rib even if it's the meat from between the bones. However, the beef is delicious. Even more delicious is the broth and Spanish Beans that come along in the pan. Be sure to order Bread and Butter to go with it. The Bread will also come with Olive Oil but it's really not needed. Spread some of the soft butter on the bread and then spoon some sauce and a bean onto the bread. You can even add a shred or two of the beef if you want to go crazy. Seafood Paella - 5 - Although the rice was lacking the Socarrat that we were expecting, the flavor of the rice was phenomenal. When we placed the order, we were asked how we wanted the rice, I said crispy. Duda offered Crispy or Extra Crispy. I then asked for Extra Crispy. When done correctly, the rice cooks to the bottom of the pan and provides an extra bit of texture and flavor without being burned. What was served barely stuck to the pan. Zero Socarrat. Very disappointing, especially since we had been asked how we wanted it. Churros - 4 - Two of us ordered Churros for dessert. They were out of Milk Chocolate so we both got the "Dark" Chocolate. The flavor of the Churros was good. These were skinny Churros, and I prefer fat Churros because there's more of the soft center, which the Chocolate Sauce seems to adhere to better. In Barcelona, the Dark Chocolate Sauce was much darker and substantially thicker, almost like a chocolate pudding. If you tipped the container, it would move slowly like lava. Cheese Flan with Housemade Jam (Covserve?) and Cream - 4 - Good flavors. Baked Rice Pudding - 4 - I found it interesting to have a rice pudding that didn't seem to be made up of grains of rice. I looked it up online and discovered that rice pudding sometimes doesn't even contain rice although some may grind the rice into powder before cooking for a smoother texture. This is a new concept for me and I'm going to have to try it again. Flavor wise, it was good.

Fun spot for a girls night out or date night! Arrived on a Saturday just after 7, and were lucky to snag two bar stools as a couple was just leaving. Otherwise, if you're not feeling as lucky it seemed like you definitely should either make a reservation or plan ahead for a bit of a wait. Seating is limited, but that adds to the ambiance of your experience! Tables in the back of the restaurant overlook the kitchen. Tables closer to the front overlook First St. Either way, there isn't a bad seat in the house. My friend and I ordered four tapas and one paella, it was enough to feed a party twice our size and the bill came to $150 (we also each had one drink). Tapas: Peppers: I would skip. No flavor. Meatballs: Must order! Huge amount of meatballs (I believe there were ten); I wish you could do a half order! Coquettes: If you only order one tapas, this must be it! DELICIOUS. Bravas: I have had better elsewhere, but it isn't bad! Chicken paella: I wouldn't come back for the paella as I've had better elsewhere, but it is good! I wish it was crispier with strong seasoning, but the amount of cilantro was a little... much... and maybe the distracted from the seasoning. The winner of the night: the cocktails are DELICIOUS. The spicy margarita is legitimately a jalapeño infused tequila, and it's SPICY without needing a spicy rim. Love!!

5 stars for the service (Marisol) and ambiance but 3 for the portions and price point. I was shocked one boneless short rib was 38$ and the octopus was the tiniest I've ever seen for 26$. I don't think I would ever dine here again as it wasn't anything out of the ordinary. read more

Celebrated my birthday with dinner here and it was perfection! Ambiance is lovely, we were seated in an elegant plush red booth with a great view of the busy kitchen. All of the waitstaff was warm, welcoming, incredibly efficient and a delight to chat with! I started with a glass of their L Campo sangria. It had nice notes of cinnamon and pomegranate. Decided on a tapas assortment so we could try several dishes. We thoroughly enjoyed each tasty morsel! Spanish sweet flat bread was delicate cracker-like rounds, sprinkled with crystallized sugar and had exquisite subtle hints of anise seed. Vegetable croquettes were absolutely scrumptious! The fried cod was flaky with a light crunch in perfect bite-size portions with fresh lemon and two dipping sauces. Also indulged in their lovely Spanish charcuterie platter assortment. I casually revealed it was my birthday early on. Our sweetheart of a waitress surprised me with a piece of their fabulous almond cake & a muted "Happy Birthday" serenade, both were much appreciated. The cake was light, not too sweet and along with petite orange wedges, fresh zest and sauce was totally delectable! You would never know they've been open less than a month. Everything ran smoothly and expeditiously. Can't wait to go back! Come early because even on a Monday they were almost at capacity before 6pm. Excellente L Campo! read more

Made reservations for the special Valentine's Day event. When we arrived, they were very busy and couldn't seat us immediately, but kind patrons at the bar scooted down to make two seats available so my wife and I could sit together while we waited. We barely had time to order a glass of wine before our table was ready. We ordered the Patatas Bravas and Grilled Gulf Shrimp Tapas as an appetizer. The Patatas arrived first and were delicious and perfectly prepared. The shrimp came next and were equally delicious, but perhaps a tiny smidge overcooked-a minor quibble that did not detract from our enjoyment. We had the Filet Mignon Paella for the main course with a side of roasted cauliflower. I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of steak on the Paella. We got so full while eating it that we barely touched the cauliflower. I will skip the side next time. The steak was added on top and showed signs of quick preparation on a hot grill: it had a pronounced thermal gradient, and it was only medium-rare at the very center. Nevertheless, it was both tasty and tender, and we enjoyed it. The paella rice was excellent, perfectly cooked and seasoned. Paella has to be reduced a lot, so it can easily end up oversalted, but L Campo nailed it on a very busy night. The ambiance was lively, the staff and fellow patrons were friendly, and the food was delicious. We'll be back. read more

Great food, excellent service. We were there last month -- the place was very crowded and does not take reservations, but we were seated within 5-10 minutes, so it was not that bad. We ordered some drinks that arrived quickly, and then the food arrived nice and hot. Everything was well-made and fresh. The service was exceptional, and we got everything we were looking for on a busy Friday evening. We started with a salad bowl of endives with orange & walnuts, and shared a paella of chicken & saffron, and a dish of sea bass in a creamy tomato sauce. Everything was well-made. The Paella was a bit dry for our liking, but authentic for sure. read more

I was excited that a Spanish opened up locally to save me the drive to Palo Alto. A friend and I shared a seafood paella and while the initial bite was tasty, some later bites were hyper salty. We found the patatas bravas underwhelming. Our favorite item by far were the croquettes. The seating was comfortable. No complaints on the service. read more

This tapas place opened up last September and finally got to try it . Cute spot in Livermore downtown . The tapas offerings are fun and eclectic and the paella is so good . A Spanish tapas place is a great addition to tri valley dining scene and was definetly needed . There are a lot of vegetarian and gluten free offerings so a great place for non meat eaters We ordered a bunch of small plates and then reordered some more . The peppers , there are two on the menu and both are great , specially the goat cheese one . The shrimp , octopus were both good . The manchego cheese , veg croquettes , patata bravas , charcuterie , cauliflower , asparagus all amazing . We got the mushroom and the chicken paella both were nice . The cocktails are also great and the wine selection is quite varied. .Recommend the spicy margarita , old fashioned and the cava based cocktail . For desserts the almond cake was worth every bite and well who cannot like churros . So yeah had a great time and our server was just amazing ! His food recs and picture taking skills are top notch . Definitely going back read more

We loved our dinner at L Campo! We dined as two adults and a toddler and they seated us in a very thoughtful spot with room for our stroller. The cocktails were high quality, and all the staff were so welcoming and attentive. The food came out surprisingly fast (which is always appreciated when dining with small kids!) and everything was excellent. We had braised short rib, chorizo, fries, saffron rice, and cauliflower. I would order everything I ate again!! I think one of the worries with tapas is portion size and whether it will be enough food but every small plate or side we ordered was more than enough for the 3 of us. A note on ambience -- great Friday night vibe! Loud and vibrant and full of people, great for gatherings or a date night. It is not typically the atmosphere that works best for our toddler, but we got lucky that she was well distracted by tasty food. It is very family friendly, but for families with toddlers who don't like high volumes I recommend trying this spot on a quieter night or earlier in the evening. Looking forward to dining here again! read more

Had dinner at L Campo and was seriously impressed. We ordered the patatas bravas and the steak paella, and both dishes were outstanding. The patatas bravas came out perfectly crispy on the outside, soft inside, and topped with a rich, smoky sauce that had just the right kick -- easily one of the best versions I've tried. The steak paella was flavorful and comforting, with tender slices of steak layered over perfectly cooked rice that had soaked up all those deep, savory flavors. Every bite was hearty and balanced. read more

We were excited to hear of a Spanish Tapas place opening up so decided to check it out last Friday at 5pm. We were immediately greeted and there were plenty of seating at this time, we decided to sit outside. I can say the ambience is great, and so is the service. We ordered the gambas, white anchovies, jamón, paella "l campo" & patatas bravas. Everything was really tasty, except the patatas were a little soggy, would have preferred them more crispy! I'm sure every place does it differently, but we've had them crispy in Barcelona, so really our preference. :) Other than that, atmosphere, food, drinks were great! Highly recommend! *Sorry I did not get pictures this time! read more

Finally, good Spanish tapas in the TriValley. The space was done tastefully with a soothing ambiance. Service was excellent and attentive. We were recommended to try the 24 month Jamon Iberico which was amazing-highly recommend! We ordered the churros with chocolate for dessert- a definite must for dessert. A couple of "thoughts": 1) Although service was great, we felt rushed. We were recommended to order all tapas at once. We're used to ordering tapas "along the way". 2) The same sauce was used in most of our tapas, so the tapa taste profiles were similar/identical. 3) Not a big deal, but they do not take reservations, and noticed that all seats (& bar seats) were filled by 5:20p on a Friday eve. 4) Limited Spanish (by the bottle from Spain) red wines to choose from. All in all, good start and we'll definitely come again! read more

We had a couple of the Conitos, little crispy cones, which were delicious, excellent chicken and skirt steak and the churros are so much better than any churro I've had. We didn't have the Paella so we could have more Tapas but this was some of the best food I've had in the area in a long time. San Francisco quality without the pretentious attitude.

The owner Mete had inspired us to try outside of our comfort zone and try some tapas we wouldn't think otherwise and they were out of this world good which were the croquettes, stuffed peppers with goat cheese, and patatas bravas. Also, me and my girlfriend both had paella for the first time and it was so delicious! Finally, Yusuf and the other staff always checked in on us and cleared our plates with ease and filled our waters consistently. The churros was also a great finishing touch to the meal, light but filling. This is a must absolute visit with a great ambiance if you are in downtown Livermore! read more

Great service, excellent food! We had several small plates for a group of four. The shrimp, grilled octopus, white anchovies, croquettes, and Jamón Ibérico were all simply delicious. They will tell you up front the paella takes 25-30 minutes to prepare, so best order it immediately if you are interested. We tried the seafood paella, and ordered it "extra crispy" crust on the bottom. My wife and I made a subsequent visit with two more friends, where we finished tasting the small plates, and ordered the L Campo paella. Every dish was a delight, I'd order any again. I preferred the L Campo paella to the seafood, but i would eat either in a heartbeat. My only concern is they don't take reservations. It wasn't an issue either time we visited, but come winter the outside seating won't be fun and there's not a lot of seating space inside. read more

I don't usually enjoy seafood, but the paella at L Campo completely changed my mind, hands down the best I've ever had. The restaurant was spotless and beautifully organized, and the staff made the whole experience seamless. I barely waited for my food, and the open kitchen made it even better. Watching them prepare everything fresh right in front of me gave me total confidence in the quality and care they put into every dish. If you're anywhere near Livermore and want amazing food, great service, and an experience you can trust, L Campo is a must-try. read more

Checked this place out last night. Arrived at about 5:20pm and it was already almost full so the buzz is definitely out about this place. The inside is very nice- the decor is great and the kitchen is behind big clear windows so you get to feel like it's one big family while inside- in a good way. The food came very fast- so fast that the main entree beat one of the tapas we ordered, but it's ok as we just ate it all together. We ordered the tapas croquettes which were our favorite, we also ordered the tapas sautéed shrimp and then short ribs with Spanish beans (for 2) - the short ribs were good and fell apart like they should, but it lacked flavor. The beans were big Lima beans, but you only get about 5 of them. I felt like I wanted at least a couple more of those to go with each bite. There was a light broth the short rib sat in that we felt needed some type of bread to go with, so we added an order of bread. $5 order came with two small pieces of a baguette style bread and a dish of olive oil (which we didn't use). The price for the bread was the only cost I felt was a bit steep. The menu is really very reasonable in comparison to other similar dining establishments in Livermore. For dessert we had the almond cake and it quite possibly was our favorite of the night!! Delicious and delightful!! Service was excellent and so was the vibe. They will eventually be open for lunch and they will eventually have some Spanish guitar players to play at dinner service. I'd like to go back for that and to try some of their Spanish Charcuterie plates as well! read more

Ambiance was nice love the open kitchen and table designs in the back but majority of tables out front are way to close together and leaves no privacy between you and your neighbors. Horchata was delicious but unfortunately the rest of the food was so so. We had Octopus was fresh and soft but sauces served with it did not have wow factor. Had jamón was fine but bread served with it was lacking fine dining. The seafood paella was so small for the price a few pieces of seafood and no flavor. The server was very sweet and young but unfortunately she lacked ability to describe the dishes little knowledge of the menu described one of the dishes as the same sauce as a previous dish they served but since it was our first time we had no knowledge of previous dish we laughed about that. It was ok but probably won't return Sabio on Main is way better read more

We were wandering downtown LM and saw L Campo. I assumed it's fairly new since they only had a few reviews. Walked in and got a table right away. They were pretty busy though on a Wednesday night. They have outdoor area too where we sat. Service is amazing -- I don't say this a lot because service (overall) has gone down so much everywhere but this place proved me wrong. They were very attentive in a good way, very friendly and accommodating. Food is delicious -- we ordered a couple items and all of them were above 9/10. Anchovies were good, not too fishy/salty for me but still flavorful, the croquette 10/10!!! I ordered the pickled veggies too, random but I enjoyed it very much, might be too pickled for some but I would order a jar if I had the chance. We got mushroom paella, maybe we should've gotten extra crispy next time, 8/10. Drinks were delicious, 8.7/10 Would recommend and come back. read more

After finishing the Livermore Light Wine Trolley Tour on Saturday night We were looking to find a place for a light dinner at 8pm. We did peek in quite a few windows and L Campo caught our eye as the ambience and menu looked inviting. The food and cocktails here were amazing, and the service was outstanding and quick. The octopus and anchovies' toast was a first for the 4 of us and only made us wish we had more of a appetite to experience more of the menu. We will be back for sure. The icing on the cake was our server Nani, who was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and super fun to talk to. Her level of service was second to none and when we do come back we will be willing to wait as long as we have to to make sure she is our server. L Campo...you have the food , you have the ambience.

The drinks were also delicious though very mild. My only minor "complaint" was that the waitress was almost overly nice. She was very sweet but at a certain point, the constant check-ins are enough. Besides that though, the food was yummy and I definitely recommend checking L Campo out. read more

The Buzzed & Bougie was very floral, and The Cusco Comb had a nice balance of flavors. Out of the 3, the Electric Nectar was probably the strongest in terms of tasting the alcohol. I don't particularly prefer sour drinks. If I were to re-order, I would get the Cusco Comb, as it fits my taste profile the most. We also ordered the Burrata to share.

I wish I had ordered an appetizer, like the deviled eggs or brussels sprouts, as it would have rounded out my lunch well and it would have been more filling.

We ordered three small plates : whipped feta, cumin lamb mintu, and smoked Duroc pork belly. The cocktail was really good. We liked the whipped feta with warm bread a lot. We felt neutral about the lamb dumplings but pretty sad about the Duroc pork belly. The pork belly arrived last. The plate came with six tiny pieces of pork belly which looked very dry, burnt and shrunk. It was pretty hard to chew especially the crust. I didn't find it enjoyable in any way. I asked our server if it was supposed to be this way. And she said yes, crispy outside and juicy inside. Since it was burnt and overcooked, there was nothing soft or pleasant in the inside part left to chew either. I felt it had no flavor. For $ 22 plus tax and tip, we hoped to enjoy it better than what we received. We were not offered any remedy to the dish and felt a little awkward after we brought it up to our server.

First off, this is NOT on the staff working. We genuinely felt bad for them. Management thought it was a good idea to schedule ONE bartender and ONE server on a packed Saturday night. The entire place was chaotic, customers were visibly irritated, TVs throughout the restaurant stopped working, and the poor employees were drowning trying to keep up. The stress was palpable that made the experience stressful and not enjoyable. Absolute management failure. At one point I used their self-pour beer wall and poured myself half a Modelo only for it to come out warm I was able to find another beer that was actually cold... but still charged for the warm one. The food was somehow even worse. We ordered the barbacoa nachos, wedge salad, and a kids burger with fries. The kids burger was the only edible thing. The wedge salad was drowning in ranch like someone emptied the whole bottle on it. Tomatoes tasted old and gross. Then came the nachos... tiny portion, bland chips, barely any cheese, no mango salsa like the menu claimed, and the "barbacoa" -- if you could even call it that -- was tough, fatty, and completely inedible. $74 later for one appetizer, one salad, one kids meal, and 1 1/2 beers. We only tipped because we felt bad for the server. We will NEVER be back. Thanks for ruining our Mother's Day dinner.

I ordered the 14 oz New York Steak with scalloped potatoes and charred organic seasonal vegetables, topped with cowboy butter. I asked for it medium-well and really enjoyed the steak, giving it a solid 4/5. My friend ordered Mama's Crispy Tacos (two chicken and one potato), which came with cotija, lettuce, avocado, crema, and pico de gallo, served alongside a spicy green salsa and pinto bean smash. They rated this a good 4/5. On the flip side, my friend also tried the Grilled Baja Prawn Tacos. Served on flour tortillas over a bed of mixed greens with pineapple salsa and chipotle sauce, this dish really lacked flavor and was a disappointing 2/5. We also started with the Seasonal Mixed Greens salad, which came with green apple slices, candied pecans, seasonal berries, and a white balsamic vinaigrette on the side. This was just okay, landing at a 3/5. Overall, Maple Street Eatery is a decent place for brunch or lunch. If the service becomes more efficient and a few of the food items are improved to match the quality of the salmon and steak, we would definitely make this a regular spot to visit.

I was literally outside the door after about 45inutes and my phone buzzed. Come to find out that they had 3 open tables available the entire time. The decor is tiki themed along with the drinks however the music playing in the background was jazz. Not sure how that fits the theme. Also, the drinks averaged about $20 and small bites and desserts ranged from $13-$20. I'm torn about wanting to return here.

I ordered the 14 oz New York Steak with scalloped potatoes and charred organic seasonal vegetables, topped with cowboy butter. I asked for it medium-well and really enjoyed the steak, giving it a solid 4/5. My friend ordered Mama's Crispy Tacos (two chicken and one potato), which came with cotija, lettuce, avocado, crema, and pico de gallo, served alongside a spicy green salsa and pinto bean smash. They rated this a good 4/5. On the flip side, my friend also tried the Grilled Baja Prawn Tacos. Served on flour tortillas over a bed of mixed greens with pineapple salsa and chipotle sauce, this dish really lacked flavor and was a disappointing 2/5. We also started with the Seasonal Mixed Greens salad, which came with green apple slices, candied pecans, seasonal berries, and a white balsamic vinaigrette on the side. This was just okay, landing at a 3/5. Overall, Maple Street Eatery is a decent place for brunch or lunch. If the service becomes more efficient and a few of the food items are improved to match the quality of the salmon and steak, we would definitely make this a regular spot to visit.

Party of 5 on a Sunday Evening before the dinner rush…read more We were greeted and sat promptly by a very nice hostess. Our server came over and introduced herself and asked if we would like any cocktails and offered us water and gave us some time to pick out what we would like to eat. He was fast, friendly and attentive. The food here is exceptionally good, especially for the prices. I feel like the prices are very good and reasonable, especially in today's time. On top of the fact that everything that we ordered here on both of our visits have been phenomenal and taste and presentation. The atmosphere is nice. The aesthetics are pretty. It does get a little bit loud, but that's understandable as everyone is there to have a good time and a good meal. We had the Salisbury steak, Reyes, beef, short rib, the flank steak, and I personally had the grilled cheese inside of smoked tomato soup. The tomato soup is literally the best tomato soup I've ever had in my life. The grilled cheese is cooked to perfection and together they are just a wow meal. Can't wait to go back to try more dishes.

A place after my heart. Monday and Tuesday best days to come in, specials both days, all day long…read more Great happy hour from 2:30-5:30 M-F as well. Staff is lovely; talented, friendly and always ensure their guests have the best experience possible. Food is top-notch. Order the Cajun Fettuccine and add mushrooms, it's one of the best dishes in town. So flavorful, expertly seasoned, chicken remains moist and the pasta soaks up the sauce. Bourbon Pear is in the running for the best restaurant in Livermore and if you wanted to put it in the number one spot you'd be more than justified.

Service was honestly one of the highlights--everyone was friendly, attentive, and on top of things without being overbearing. Drinks and food came out in a timely manner, everything was accurate, and we never felt like we were waiting on anything. Huge shoutout to the General Manager, Zak. It's clear he takes pride in how the restaurant is run, and it shows through the staff and overall atmosphere. It's not easy to keep a place consistent, but they definitely have it dialed in here. Between the great service, solid atmosphere, and overall experience, this is definitely a spot I'll be coming back to. Highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area

Leather seating and small tables where you can relax and meet up with friends. Our server was friendly who checked on us periodically. Their menu has an interesting blend of choices. They even offer deviled eggs that I hear are pretty spectacular. We ordered the Thai chicken salad and fish tacos. The salad looked quite good and my friend enjoyed it very much. The tacos are on petite, single shells with a piece of fish, avocado and cabbage slaw on each. I happily ate every bite. A side salad would have enhanced this dish. I wish I had ordered an appetizer, like the deviled eggs or brussels sprouts, as it would have rounded out my lunch well and it would have been more filling. I noticed a steady flow of people coming and going. It was a relaxed atmosphere and we were not rushed out by any means. I hadn't seen my friend in person for at least a year so it was nice to sit and just chat in a calm environment. Located directly across First Street from Sauced. This place is another positive addition to downtown Livermore.

The inside is dimly lit and decorated elegantly. I liked the inclusion of honeycombs in the lighting fixtures and even the ice in my drink. The darks and golds almost give Great Gatsby vibes. We all ordered a different cocktail from their signature menu. I got the Electric Nectar. The drink was a little tart and sour. The Buzzed & Bougie was very floral, and The Cusco Comb had a nice balance of flavors. Out of the 3, the Electric Nectar was probably the strongest in terms of tasting the alcohol. I don't particularly prefer sour drinks. If I were to re-order, I would get the Cusco Comb, as it fits my taste profile the most. We also ordered the Burrata to share. It came with 6 pieces of toast, which was perfect and divided evenly among the 3 of us. The burrata was delicious. The cherry gastrique added a nice touch of sweetness without being overly sweet. As time progressed, more and more people came in. By the time we left, the lounge was pretty filled.

I would come back to give them another chance because their whiskey selection was amazing and the Paper Plane was delicious!

A true taste of Valencia I visited El Campo recently and had an incredible experience from beginning to end. The food is outstanding and truly reflects the warmth and flavor of Valencian cuisine, but what really elevated the night was the exceptional service. The staff is amazing. The servers are attentive, friendly and genuinely invested in giving guests the best possible experience. They explain the dishes with care, check in at the perfect moments and make you feel completely welcome. I also loved that they let you choose how you want your paella cooked: medium crispy, extra crispy or no crispy. That level of attention to personal preference is rare and really makes a difference. The paella was unforgettable. The rice was perfectly cooked, the seafood fresh and the saffron brought everything together with beautiful aroma and flavor. The tapas were just as delicious, especially the croquetas and the tortilla, which came out hot, creamy and full of taste. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, and combined with the outstanding service, it creates the perfect dining experience. If you love Spanish food or simply want an exceptional meal, El Campo is a must visit. I cannot wait to return. And seriously, don't leave without trying the Watermelon Kiss and the passionfruit drink. They're addictive. And the bartenders? Super attentive, super friendly, and they actually put effort into every drink and that's what makes it even more special read more

I cannot say enough good things about El Campo. We are so lucky to have this spot in town, and it is a business I genuinely hope does incredibly well and sticks around for a very long time! From start to finish, the food was spectacular. We started with the charcuterie platter, which was beautifully curated and perfect for sharing. You also cannot miss the patatas bravas, they are crispy, perfectly seasoned, and entirely addictive. For the main event, the steak paella was a total standout. The meat was incredibly tender, and the flavors in the rice were absolutely spot-on. Beyond the amazing kitchen, the service was great. Everyone was attentive, welcoming, and made the whole dining experience top-notch. If you have not been yet, do yourself a favor and check them out. We will absolutely be back regularly to support this fantastic local spot! read more

Today I visited El Campo with a friend, and we had such a wonderful experience. Duda, our server, was absolutely amazing ..so kind, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely sweet. She made us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived and took the time to explain the menu with so much care and patience. Her positive energy truly made our visit even more special. It was my first time at the restaurant, and I loved everything ...the beautiful atmosphere, the delicious food, and the overall experience. But the highlight of our visit was definitely Duda's outstanding service. She went above and beyond, and you can tell she truly cares about her guests. I will definitely be coming back and bringing more friends with me. Thank you, Duda, for making our first visit so memorable! read more

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this establishment, and I must say that every single aspect of our evening exceeded expectations. From the moment we walked through the door, we were enveloped in an atmosphere that struck the perfect balance between warm sophistication and genuine hospitality. The service throughout the evening was nothing short of outstanding. Our server demonstrated a level of attentiveness and professionalism that's becoming increasingly rare in the restaurant industry. She was incredibly friendly and approachable but also remarkably knowledgeable about the menu, offering excellent recommendations. We had patata bravas, chorizo, cauliflower and mushroom paella. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend this place! read more

I'm not going to lie, I'm a bit biased...my kiddo and several of her friends work here, and THAT is why you should listen. My husband and I have been more than a handful of times...GET THE PAELLA. I've sampled every tapas...don't skip the octopus. Also, we consider ourselves lamb shank fans...if you are too...this will be a treat. The salad...yes just the basic salad, has these mouth watering crunchy asparagus sprinkled throughout...sooooo good. Not only will you enjoy the food, Ana's decor is stunning...I'll spend half the meal staring at her lighting. On top of all that, they have an amazing crew. My kid actually likes swinging by there on her days off...because they are amazing people, and they care about each other, as well as the guests. read more
