    We came here for a casual dinner, but service was extremely slow. We even had to call a server to get our order started. Drinks and appetizers arrived, but it took a long time for the main courses. We tried the white sea bass, chicken, Margherita pizza, pasta and their Wagyu burger. Food was satisfactory, nothing memorable to make us come back. The ambience is a bit dark inside, though somewhat cozy

    Service and location are good. The pizza wasn't really my thing though. Will have to come back and try more eats and drinks!

    Back in Walnut Creek. I met a friend for an "it's the new year brunch" and she chose Main Street Kitchen and Bar. The weather wasn't the greatest, but that sure didn't stop folks from coming out to break bread together. We were seated and began to look over the menu right away. Both my friend and I ordered a Lavender Latte..... damn that thang good!! so much so we ordered a second one when we were done with our brunch. They have a huge menu so it took me a minute to decide what I wanted as my entrée but I narrowed it down to an omelette. The food here is legit and you won't be disappointed. You will definitely get your feel of a Sunday Brunch maybe even Tuesday Brunch. If you want a place to come that has a large selection of items to choose from, this is definitely your place. As I always say don't take my word please come and check it out for yourself and let me know. Bon appétit.

    Salmon Benedict

    I really enjoyed this place! I went with my bestie to brunch and she had found this place on Instagram and I honestly thought the food was great. The Chilaquiles were delicious, pretty much as good as any I have tried that were homemade. I also appreciated the tang of the salsa verde on top, mmm! I tried my bestie's salmon Benedict and also a yummy solid choice. I would totally recommend this place

    My apologies for the delay in writing this. I made a reservation for December 31, the day before New Year's, to celebrate, but on that day, if you guys remember, we had a Pineapple Express coming through the East Bay, pouring rain. I was going to cancel because visibility was low, and driving on highways in a typhoonish rainstorm in the Bay Area is risky. Nonetheless, I'm glad I did not cancel. This restaurant was the gold standard in farm-to-table. The staff was excellent on this night. They offered us cloth napkins to dry off as we rushed in the door. They were very patient and understanding and sat us promptly. Kudos to whoever trained and hired these guys. The ambience of Main Street Kitchen and Bar is perfect for first dates, date night, and quaint get-togethers. The cocktail menu reflects a sophistication and elegance that balance traditional cocktails with unique, fresh ingredients, giving it an updated, refreshing appeal. As for the food, if pictures could speak, a few I posted would say the following: fresh, perfectly seasoned, plated with care, and served at the perfect temperature. From a vegetarian to a carnivore, the restaurant's carefully sculpted menu makes it the perfect place to dine, not eat. As a native of New Orleans, only a category 3 storm or higher would keep me from making my reservation. The food is exemplary.

    Last time I was here was with the ladies in my family. This time, we came in before with some of my other family before we headed out to the airport. I loooove this spot for brunch! My sister made a reservation and we were seated as soon as we arrived. There's a parking garage nearby for easy parking. I ordered the espresso martini and loved it! It was so creamy and delicious! To start, my brother in law ordered some guac and salsa for the table and their giant fries! The fries came with a yummy aioli sauce I really liked. The guac was good, too, and the chips are definitely homemade. At first when we were seated, I think there might have been a little confusion as to who our server was, but when we asked a server passing by, he ended up taking up our table and did a great job! He was wonderful. To eat, I ordered this delicious summer pasta they had. It came with arugula on top! it was soooo refreshing and light. Honestly a great lunch item to get because it wasn't too heavy at all. The flavors were perfection! I have literally been dreaming about this pasta ever since I had it haha. Highly recommend this spot for a date or catching up with friends and family.

    Deep Fried Brussel Sprouts

    The foods were delicious and fresh. Mimosa was a little different than what we expected but not bad at all. Service was fast and pleasant. P/S: I'd vote 6 stars (if available) just for the bathrooms. They have all-gender bathrooms, clean and well equipped, with lots of amenities: phone holder, bags/clothes hangers, dual flush toilet, especially a great bidet sprayer.

    Avocado Toast
    Joanna T.

    One of my favorite brunch spots. It's always buzzing and has a nice vibe. You can either dine inside, which is a large space with high ceilings, or outside and people watch. I always get the avocado toast which is a side menu item so it's easy to miss. For a side, you receive two decent sized pieces of toast with avocado slices, arugula, and radish slices as garnish. It's filling and delicious. The bottomless mimosa is a fun brunch addition and you can choose orange, pineapple, or grapefruit juice. It's reasonably priced. I have not tried their banana bread but apparently it's popular. It was sold out the last few times I asked for it. This is a fun place to have brunch, either with a group, another person, or by yourself. I enjoy doing that sometimes and I bring a book. It's a great place to enjoy a leisurely lunch. I have found the service to always be attentive and warm. Finally, if you are a latte fan, they make a great lavender latte!

    Nice restaurant in downtown WC. Came here for brunch on a busy morning but we were seated almost immediately. The staff was great and super attentive. Quite the morning so I had a little espresso martini and ordered their French toast, which was good but not for the price. Will come again to try other items on the menu.

    Smoked Salmon Benedict
    Ruth L.

    Went in on Sunday for brunch and the servers were all very welcoming and attentive to details. My friend and I both ordered the smoked salmon Benedict. There were a lot of fresh veggies on top and I especially enjoyed the cucumbers. The bread was a little hard. The seasoning was just right for me. Things did feel a bit on the pricey side, but I still enjoyed my meal. Would definitely come here again for this same dish!

    Stopped to watch football and have a beer after dinner. Place was clean and the bartender was friendly. Seems like a good date spot in downtown Walnut Creek.

    MSK Fries
    Shayna W.

    Since moving to WA almost 2 years ago, I always try to make a point to go back to MSK. The farm to table experience they provide is outstanding. From the exceptional service, the warm welcoming from the owner who makes points to see every table that comes in, to the masterminds before the kitchen, every moment in MSK feels like visiting family. 10/10 every time!

    There is garage parking nearby; 1st hour free, minimal after that. There's street parking all metered - go for a garage.

California-Mediterranean spot with a big vegetarian focus, plenty of vegan and gluten-free options, and a solid cocktail and beer list to go with it. I had the Impossible Kefta, which was full of flavor and easily my favorite thing on the table. The Avocado Toast-ish held up too, piled with arugula, feta, and poached eggs. We finished with the Mediterranean Cocoa Mousse and it was worth every calorie. If you only order one thing, make it the kefta. The Turkish coffee deserves its own mention. I know my Turkish coffee, and this one was done right. Not burnt, thick and flavorful down to the last sip. Staff was friendly and on top of things. The indoor tables were all held by reservations, so they sat us at the bar, which turned out to be a nice perch anyway. Make a reservation if you want indoor seating, but the bar and the outdoor patio are both comfortable. Noise stayed low to average the whole time. We never had to raise our voices. Clean spot, well staffed. Parking is free for the first three hours in Broadway Plaza, so the logistics are easy. They serve brunch, lunch, and dinner, plus a happy hour Monday through Thursday with cheap bar bites and discounted drinks. Great experience start to finish. I'd come back for dinner or happy hour and bring friends next time.

It was sooo good and flavorful! I love the side salad and cucumbers. It was a "light" meal and everything tasted fresh! The chicken was grilled perfectly and had a nice char. I loved everything about it! My bf got the chicken bowl and he also really enjoyed it! The rice was fluffy, the chicken was cooked perfectly, and the yogurt/white sauce along with the stewed chickpeas went well together. I don't drink alcohol like that, so we opted for the Sour Candy, which was passionfruit, tamarind, lime, and soda. It was actually so good?! Would get again. Service was great; food took a bit to come out though, but was worth it! You can watch them prepare and cook the food from their open kitchen! On the Friday&Saturdays they close at 1am and have djs and it turns into a "night club" vibe with a disco ball and everything! Definitely an elevated lunch and dinner experience here. Would def come back to try dinner!

I made a reservation in advance to celebrate my mom's birthday- when my family arrived, we were quite literally ignored by the hostess for about 10 minutes. She looked at us, and said "I will be right with you", only to come back 7 more times and ignore us again. She then made us wait 20 minutes into our reservation because another table wasn't finished with their meal. I initially didn't think anything of it (after all, it was a busy night)- until another group of white women who had made a reservation were immediately attended to by this hostess, and were given a table at a significantly better lit area. My indian family was made to sit at the corner of the restaurant, by the bathrooms. However I want to keep in mind that maybe it was a bad day, and the rest of the staff were very polite to us.
