Best Restaurants for Anniversaries in Orinda

It was Thanksgiving Day at 7:15pm and we were not sure what to expect. It was an amazing experience. The restaurant was super busy but you can see the staff taking care of business. The valet wished us a happy Thanksgiving, we arrived and checked in. I was a little worried, but within 5 min my cell phone rang and we were seated. The host that sat was very friendly. Our waiter Abel was the absolute best! He and the wait staff made our night extra special. The water and drinks were replaced quickly and the food was amazing!!! My husband was asking if we can book now for 2025. Thank you!!

Great food! Party of 8 for a Thanksgiving dinner. We had a few traditional meals and a few non turkey dinners. Cesar salad was fabulous, bread yummy, pasta delicious. Yams were so good. Cranberry quality tart and scrumptious. Turkey moist and tasty. Ham holiday meal also very very good! Service very attentive. We were not rushed through a meal although they were packed.

Acre is an amazing restaurant. It’s a rare gem where the execution across the board is outstanding. It consistently delivers excellent food in a great atmosphere with top notch service. I’ve been for a casual night with friends to an anniversary dinner and it was perfect for both- a great time with fantastic food!

We love the food and enjoyed great meals today at lunch. I got there early so I could ask the hostess to please note my grand daughter was home from college and it is her birthday. She said she would inform our server….. I knew my grand daughter would choose a chocolate dessert, which she did + her Mum and I also enjoyed our desserts. GREAT disappointment when 3 desserts arrived NO candle !!!!! Of course I didn’t make a fuss , however I wanted to !! The special moment was over and I left your restaurant feeling let down. We all love coming to True Food Kitchen in Walnut Crerk CA because we love the food and I knew when I told our grand daughter that’s where we would be having lunch….. she was, as expected …. excited. Please get through to your hostesses that some requests mean a great deal and they need to follow through !!! Antoinette ☹️

Lovely dinner to celebrate a friend's birthday. We sat out on the outdoor patio which was nice and cozy despite the chilly weather that evening. Our server Arlene was friendly and gracious, providing the right level of attentiveness and interaction. The food was delicious as well. I love a good moules frites and the mussels were nice and plump and the fries were perfectly salted. It appeared there were other parties also celebrating birthdays the same night so if you are looking to have a good meal in a nice atmosphere, Reve Bistro is a great choice.
