Best Neighbourhood Gem Restaurants in Benicia

The staff was exceptionally warm, Kokkari is still as cozy and delicious as ever. A classic San Francisco staple.

Food was great, portions was bigger than I remember especially the King Henry VIII. Great value!

Very nice brunch and great view, will have brunch here again

Bella Siena is our go-to spot for celebrating any special occasion. The food and service never disappoint. Since it was Valentine's Day we splurged and ordered the lamb tenderloins. So good! My husband doesn't like garlic mashed potatoes, but there was no hesitation when we requested a substitute. Our other entree was the salmon, which was perfectly grilled and served with a hash of spinach, onions, and roasted potatoes. I liked that better than the lamb. For dessert, we split the chocolate mousse cake. If we'd been at home, we would have licked the plate. We were not seated at the window, but still had a nice water view.

A wonderful restaurant in the delightful village of Port Costa. The ambiance and service are top notch. The food is very good, though as vegans our choices were limited. We were able to put together a meal with some salads and side dishes, but would be nice if a thoughtful, non-pasta vegan main could be added. There wasn't any protein or fat in our dinner, so we left feeling a bit hungry, though the omnivore friends we were with were quite satisfied. We are hoping that the restaurant recognizes this issue so we can return and bring other friends in the future.
