    Fantastic place to meet friends! Weather was perfect so 10 of us dined for brunch Outside. Our server Ben was outstanding! The menu is very interesting. Everyone was so pleased with their food. Definitely coming back

    We were searching for a Brunch place which wasn't too crowded and somewhere a little more quiet. I had been to Breakfast places in Walnut Creek, and Lafayette, but Danville and San Ramon is the area we wanted to be at. I had seen a few reviews about Aracely's Lounge and was intrigued. I made reservations for an early Breakfast on the weekend, and it was not too busy once we arrived. The place was a Piano bar back in the days, but now it is converted into a quaint Breakfast/ Lunch Lounge with a Full Bar. Israel was our Server/ Bartender. We didn't order any Libations, but started off with Coffees and a Strawberry Pop tart homemade. They also had Espresso drinks and a lot of Brunch Specials. I had the Brunch Combo which was basically 2 Eggs, Bacon , and Zucchini and roasted potatoes. The Wifey had ordered the Sweet Potato with Eggs and Pork Belly. I also ordered a Short stack of Strawberry pancakes. Everything was tasty and it was very filling. Nice Ambiance and patio seating available once the weather gets warmer. Definitely the perfect place for Brunch when you want to avoid the crowded Breakfast places in the Danville /San Ramon area.

    My bf and I visited this bar with our family for my sister in law's cosmo graduation! This bar is absolutely stunning, the jazz music was soothing the bartender was wonderful, and the drinks and food were so delicious! We will be coming here again (:

    Pork shoulder and belly bowl

    Aracely is one of the best gems in the bay! I came for brunch with friends and the experience was absolutely incredible! The service is great and the menu is perfectly curated. The ambiance is romantic and vibey, and I loved all the little details, you can tell they put so much thought into the space. The pork shoulder and belly bowl was my favorite bite! The pork was succulent and fresh, and beautifully balanced with the most delicious wild rice I've ever had. I cannot rave enough about this dish! We also tried the chicken and waffles, which is perfectly crunchy, not too sweet, and piled high! The drinks were so creative and refreshing, I actually think I shed a tear. This place is absolutely perfect with no flaws. They also have a great outdoor space, and room upstairs to accommodate private events. I love Aracely and send anyone who will listen here!

    Strawberry shortcake pancakes so so good

    Husband and I came here for a date night. Knowing what this space was before it was completely different. Beautiful lighting and seating in the restaurant. The staff was very attentive. Enjoyed the prickly drink with tequila, it was very smooth. My husband enjoyed the campfire old fashioned with a real burnt marshmallow. Enjoyed the truffle fries! For dinner I had the hangar steak. The capellini onions were soooo good.

    Upgrading to 5 stars. The menu is not typical breakfast or brunch and all was excellently executed. The poached egg crêpes was a presentation I have never seen and had an unexpected flavor and texture. The crêpe was medium fried so it was crisp but nothing like a potato chip. It contained prosciutto, asparagus (shaved and pieces), roasted leeks, and nicely soft poached eggs that was covered with truffle béarnaise sauce. Flavors: excellent and blended nicely. The spring fruit bounty: excellent. The menu leaves the contents a mystery thereby giving the chef creativity to supply the best they can get. Today we had papaya, watermelon, raspberries, blueberries and shaved jicama. As condiments it had date jam, Straus greek yogurt, medjool date purée and bee pollen. Fantastic. Service was relaxed and attentive. A nice wood themed bar is well organized. A couple today were eating at the end of the bar to watch the TV. We definitely recommend giving Aracely a try. Note: only pictures today were the Summer Fruit Bounty and the Poached Crêpes. Other pictures from previous visits so menu may not match today's menu.

    Woodford on ice

    Warning to Danville wifes they don't service Rombauer... Be warned! My wife and I decided to give them a try as it was a really warm night and we heard they have a stylish outdoor space. The outdoor space was nice, but could use some work. My wife want not that impressed. Things were going good until the the server arrived. My wife order a lemon drop and the server didn't know what was a lemon drop, really? Then I tried to order a cocktail from the drink menu, but I wanted Woodford instead of the whisky they selected. The server told me the drinks are permixed and they can make substitutions. Wtf, really, total fail, so I just order a Woodford on ice, still $19. Oh and lastly after we ordered they did not take menus or ask if we wanted to keep one. Service (2 Stars) only because they did refill our water glasses and left a bottle of water on the table. We ordered: Empanada (4 stars) The chefs choice was beef that night. The menu offered 2 sauce, Chimichurri and Aji Amarillo sauce. They didn't ask which one so they default to chimichurri (more service issues). Never had chimichurri with an empanada, it was okay but the better choice would have been the Aji Amarillo sauce. Oh good luck trying to get the other sauce, the server was no where after dropping off the food. I decided to eat it hot, rather than cold with the other sauce. Besides all that the empanada was very good, nice sized, flakey dough, slightly spicy meat filling, good stuff! Fried Artichoke Hearts (4 stars) it was served with a lemon herb aoli. They cooked everything right and was very tasty. Lamb Ribs (3.5 Stars) I never heard of rack of lamb as lamb ribs but ok strange name. The lamb was cooked perfectly about 4 bones 2 bones per cut. The seasoning was ok, should have been a little more. The vegetable side dish was really good, very fresh, all cooked perfectly and seasoned. The mashed potatoes were not as smooth as they should be in a place like this (not a country kitchen type place) and a little under seasoned. But overall a decent dish. I'm not sure I'll come back, but the food was good, just bad service

    This little Danville gem is your next hot spot for great drinks, tasty bites, intimate atmosphere and overall "hang out" spot! Perfect for celebrating, get together with friends, simply grabbing a drink after work, or in my case a holiday party. The staff is super friendly, and the bartenders on point. Now what makes this place different you ask? Well I can't quite pin it or should I say pin one thing. For starters it's cute but not in that overly cute but more so cutely balanced if that makes sense. Like you can totally have an amazing bridal shower in their beautiful patio courtyard while throwing a stag party on the inside for the groom to be. Now for the food. I had I think the best Brussel sprouts I've ever tasted. You know I'm greedy but my sister was with me to remind me to take pictures. I also had this pear crostini type appetizer. I like my toast a little more toasted but the flavors were superb. Vegetarian? No problem; add the mentions above to your order and include the beet salad! They also have great meat choices and great drinks. I was too full for dessert but just another reason to come back... well along with the fact that the freakin dj is a violinist!!!! Check out my video. They have live music until midnight; just in time for this Cinderella to get home! If you're in the area make this your next "find" and if you're not in the area it's definitely worth the trip!

So we sat in the patio which had fans and nice plants which shaded well. Felt like sitting a garden and was cool. However when walked through the restaurant to the patio it was almost all empty and plenty of tables so kinda odd. Service was okay, kinda slower than I expected. Poor server also spilled water all over me but I was thankfully wearing shorts so it was okay. Food was great though! We ordered a Sedona chicken sandwich with garlic fries and chicken picatta. Sandwich was kinda like a grilled chicken burger. The thicken breast was moist and fries were crispy and tasty. Chicken picatta was delicious and perfectly mixed with mashed potatoes, spinach, capers. The chicken wasn't dry. Pear martini was the best. I would come here just for this drink. I think they home make the syrup. Old fashioned was good but a little sweet.

    Food: The Caesar salad was a bit bland. The croutons were…read morealmost invisible, and their small size made it difficult to appreciate any texture. The mussels, however, were excellent--generously sized and served with a well-balanced blend of herbs and lemon that complemented the dish nicely. Service: The waitstaff were adequate, but the busboys stood out for their friendliness, attentiveness, and politeness. Ambience: The restaurant has a pleasant atmosphere, featuring high ceilings and a beautifully renovated interior that creates an inviting dining environment.

Location is perfect, ample parking nearby and ambience is super chic and cozy. Calamari- 10/10. Small portion though, we should have ordered a 2nd appetizer. Bread/Butter- it seems like they're rationing butter....the plate had enough to coat *maybe* 1.5 rolls Chilean Seabass- 9/10 Prawn Tacos 9/10 The signature bourbon drink was 10/10....wish we ordered a couple more. The hostess was kind and sat us immediately, but seemed a little stressed out, could just be due a very busy night. A warm smile goes a long way. Our waitress was Catherine, absolutely wonderful and so friendly. She was patient and sweet. The kind of hire Tides should feel lucky to have. The only reason I gave 4 stars and not 5....the Grey seats we were seated in are so low, felt like we had to stand up every time we reached across table and could barely hear each other. Beautiful decor but not super practical for dining. Will definitely return soon.
