The place is small and the staff ârudishlyâ friendly. Chef Derrick can out and greeted us as well as all other patrons present. He made some recommendations and they were FANTASTIC. The cheesy grits are awesome, fried chicken excellent. We got the sampler and chicken and waffles and it was all lip-smacking and finger-licking good. Admittedly, the waffles were very good but not crispy. I recommend this place and urge you to try it; you wonât regret it.

Being a resident of Walnut Creek, where lack of parking has ruined many a restaurant, coupled with ruthless parking enforcement, my reviews always include parking. No prob here as SunValley Mall parking is plentiful, though at peak times, you may have have to hunt a bit.The restaurant is not within the Mall, but is clearly visible from Contra Costa Blvd. For a place that prides itself for its ribs, my ribs that came with the family meal-deal, 2 varieties including St.Louis, we're both "dry as dust", and the delicious sauce in which it was cooked could not overcome the dryness probably caused by sitting in a "hot table" too long. The half chicken that came with the deal was juicy and tender. But my biggest disappointment was the BURNT ENDS- sorry guys, call it what you will, these were not the real thing, but chunks of pork trying to look like the real thing-for shame! Rather than cheating, better to say"Sorry, we are out of this item!" The desert list is not long but judging by the SNICKERS ICE CREAM PIE WE SHARED, it is very tasty and a bit different. Overall, lacking in quality food preparation for which big portions cannot compensate!Richard Hurley,Walnut Creek

Welcome to Plate & VineThe thing about freshness is that itâs fleeting. Use an ingredient too soon, or too late, and you donât capture it at the very pinnacle of its flavor. It is around this very basic concept that we created Plate & Vine, a uniquely Cal

We stayed at the Hilton Concord and decided to eat breakfast in the first floor restaurant. The buffet was laid out cleanly and acceptably...if unexceptionally: scrambled eggs, potatoes, bacon, sausage, a fried rice dish, and the usual pastries, breads, English muffin, fresh fruit, yogurt, orange juice, coffee.Service was excellent. The coffee was bitter. And every buffet item that was supposed to be warm was not. Pork sausage with the grease nearly congealed. Bacon the same. Room temp rice is mealy. The eggs suffered most; they clotted into a lump.We pushed our full plates aside and ate fresh fruit and toast.We told our server. She apologized. We'd've been better off at the Denny's two blocks away.

Stopped here for lunch with friends. Seated promptly. Good variety of menu options. Had the Asian chicken salad and the meatloaf sandwich and the carrot cake for dessert and everything was very good. Generous servings. Service was very good and we were checked on regularly. Good epxerience.

If you want a good vibe and some classic diner food, this is the place. It is almost always busy, with a friendly wait-staff. The omelets are very good, as are the traditional breakfasts. For lunch I particularly like the (small) tri-tip salad.There is inside and outside seating, and parking isn't too hard. The restaurant is within walking distance of Diablo Valley College and several buses pass close by. It is not within walking distance of a BART station.

Jacks is part of Pleasant Hill. Ask anyone who lives here to meet at Jacks and not only do they know the place but they have been there and they like it.The menu is based a lot on Greek food but does have a lot of variety.The also recently opened an adjoining tap room where plenty of beers are available on tap. Not surprisingly, all of those beers are also available in the restaurant.

Diggers Diner was hard to find because it is tucked away in a small strip of storefronts. But... it was worth the effort locating them because our breakfast was very good. We shared the large Cinnamon Roll covered in cream cheese icing and thoroughly enjoyed it!

Not many small local deli/sandwich shops around these days. Lots of deli items--salads and such,though the sandwiches take a back seat to Canesa's in Clayton. We have been buying their potato salad for parties here for decades. Good service.
