We ended up at The Bourbon Pear because we had family in town staying nearby, and what started as a…read moreconvenient choice turned into a place I'd happily drive back to. The interior was a nice set up. Not too loud but a little low on the lighting. We kicked things off with the hush puppies. They were crispy, hot, and really good... then the cinnamon butter entered the chat. I appreciate the creativity, but my brain couldn't decide if I was eating an appetizer or breakfast toast. Good hush puppies though. The crispy Brussels sprouts were fantastic. I've had a similar version with lemon at Station 16, so I found myself wanting to grab a lemon wedge out of habit. That said, they were still delicious and disappeared quickly. My cousin ordered the Salisbury steak and absolutely loved it. It was cooked perfectly, tender, and full of flavor. My other cousin had the New York steak and said they nailed the temperature and seasoning. I ordered the Bourbon Chicken, and the flavors were outstanding. My only tiny complaint is the sauce. It was so generous that my mashed potatoes eventually surrendered and became mashed potato soup. I'd still order it again because the flavor was worth it but maybe ask for the sauce on the side. My son had the Southwest Salad and cleaned the bowl, which is about as close to a Michelin star as a parent can give. The service was friendly, the food came out looking as good as it tasted, and everyone at the table genuinely enjoyed their meal. Finding a restaurant where nobody is eyeing someone else's plate with regret is harder than it should be, but The Bourbon Pear pulled it off. We'll definitely be making the drive back to Livermore.

Okay, so I'm NOT a fan of this place…read more I had the potato skins and the green salad. First off, the potato skins sucked. Just dry and lukewarm. The salad had too much dressing and was overpriced. Had to wait forever for the ranch dressing which made the potato skins even colder. My friend had the fried chicken salad which also had lukewarm fried chicken. Service was non existent. Like, we had to wait for water, napkins, food, check, the waiter did not care at all. I will not be back.

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

I was excited to try this place for the first time. Welcoming tables outside and comfy seating…read moreindoors. The bar area is popular for people to grab a drink and a bite. 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 patatas bravas were incredibly delicious, the cauliflower dish was amazing, the shishito peppers were so flavorful, and the vegan paella was such a pleasant surprise , full of flavor and beautifully prepared. My friend ordered shrimp and loved it. She had been there before and had tried the seafood paella and other dishes, and everything was excellent. The drinks were also high quality and complemented the meal perfectly. A special thank you to Patrick, our server, who was outstanding. He truly understands hospitality and made the whole experience even better with his attentiveness and professionalism. And knowing this gem is woman-owned makes it even more special. It's wonderful to support a restaurant bringing authentic Spanish flavors, excellent service, and such a warm atmosphere to Livermore. We will definitely be back!

Service 10/10! That is why I'm giving them 3 stars!…read more Food portions were fine, but I've never seen patatas bravas look like home fries the sizing was almost comical. The shortrib had a very distinct flavor that didn't agree with our party. The paella was decent nothing mind blowing and the seabass was ok. Best thing we had was the ribeye and the goat cheese truffle cone. Oh and skip the churros they were the so tiny and slightly hard. Not at all what I was expecting. It's a cute spot (place itself!) for sure but the food was lackluster. For the price I expected a little more. And maybe I'm slightly bias since I've traveled to Spain a few times

A cozy yet classy restaurant in Livermore with inviting front and back patios. Servers are lovely…read moreand friendly. 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. Overall it could have been a very nice meal if it was not for the pork belly dish.

The Black Cat completely exceeded our expectations. The cocktails were exactly what you picture…read morewhen you think "craft", inventive, high quality, and perfectly balanced. Every drink felt thoughtfully made rather than rushed. Service was excellent across the board. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly and knowledgeable, which already set a great tone for the night. But Kana absolutely made the experience unforgettable. We found out she's been involved in creating many of the cocktails, and wow, her passion and talent really shine through. She was incredibly knowledgeable, genuinely personable, and went above and beyond by crafting a custom drink based on the flavors we mentioned. It ended up being one of the best cocktails we've had anywhere. We've officially found our new favorite date night spot. The vibe is intimate, cozy, stylish, and perfect for an evening out. Highly recommend The Black Cat to anyone who appreciates exceptional cocktails and great service.

Came to The Hangar for an early Mother's Day dinner with the family (we celebrate Saturday instead…read moreof Sunday) and this was hands down one of the WORST restaurant experiences we've ever had. 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.

It was grilled shrimp in a yummy buttery, garlic, Cajun flavored sauce. The lasagna was good. I like it with more red sauce but that's my preference. It's small so not a lot of seating but super cute. They had a World Cup game on which was pretty cool too!

A Decent Downtown Spot with Great Salmon but Slow Service…read more We came to Maple Street Eatery, located at the end of the street in charming downtown Livermore, for lunch around 12:30 on a Saturday. It was very busy, and we had to wait approximately 20 minutes to get a table. Once seated, it took our server another 10 minutes just to come over and take our order. They were clearly low on staff, but to their credit, the staff members were definitely friendly despite the rush. The food quality varied quite a bit across our table: The highlight of the meal was the Blackened Atlantic Wild Salmon, which my wife ordered. It was served over Yukon Gold mashed potatoes and roasted seasonal organic vegetables, all topped with a lemon, butter, caper, and white wine sauce. This dish was an absolute 5/5--perfectly executed. 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.
