    I recently visited Brazas do Brazil in Concord, and it was an amazing experience! This is a special place for anyone who loves great steak and wants to celebrate a brother’s day, anniversary, or any special occasion. The quality of the food and service is exceptional, and you won’t be disappointed. The atmosphere is inviting and perfect for creating memories. Whether you’re celebrating something special or just craving a juicy, flavorful piece of meat, this is the place to go. The staff is incredibly kind and attentive, making the visit even more enjoyable. I’ll definitely be stopping by again, whether for a special occasion or just to indulge in their delicious menu. Highly recommended!

    Love this spot. As a person who has lived in Italy, I will say that Walnut Creek has many fine Italian restaurants, but nothing as authentic as Montesacro. They serve Roman style Italian food, from Cacio e Pepe to Carbonara to the delicious Pinsa pizzas (Roman style square pizzas,). They've got a great wine list as well, and the service is always very friendly and attentive. I'm a fan!

    Excellent squid ink paella and appetizers. The paella required at least 20 minutes to prepare so let the wait staff know or order it ahead of the rest. Attentive service

    Comfortable, and the right amount of attention. Nick was a great mix of patience and attentiveness. Food was high quality but not outstanding. That said, I'm going back the next time that I'm dealing with shopping marathoners. A great place to camp out
