    I did a pick up order for sweet potato fries and it was kind of a long wait just for fries. It was busy inside of Gott's Roadside. On the other side of the restaurant there's a place you can pick up your order near the condiments and bar area. I would eat their sweet potato fries again.

    I've been to a few of Gott's Roadside location. Sentimental fav is the original Taylor's Refresher in St Helena. My most visited is the Napa one. Tried Larkspur and this was my first visit to the Walnut Creek one. The food was delicious and ready in an appropriate time. The counter was friendly and helpful while the other staff members kept the tables and grounds clean. It ought it was a bit loud but maybe I'm just getting more ornery LOL! Good experience.

    We chose this spot over others in the area for our 31st anniversary dinner because it had easy seating with no long wait -- and it turned out to be a great choice! I had the veggie burger while my husband and daughter enjoyed the chicken burger and fish tacos with garlic and cheese fries. Everything was fresh and flavorful, especially the garlic fries and margarita refresher. Service was friendly even during a busy dinner rush, and the cozy wooden tables with soft music made the ambiance feel warm and relaxing. Only downside was the cheese fries were a bit soggy. Loved that they also offer small ice cream scoops for dessert. Definitely coming back to try more vegetarian options!

    Unfortunately, I have no photos to show for our meal. That's because I never got my salad and the waffle fries took 30 minutes and were not as described. The mangers were very nice and accommodating given the poor service. They normally have the best chicken kale Caesar salad. Today may have just been an off day. I will return- maybe not on a weekend until the season is over

    I've been to a few locations now, but this one was really good. The food was yummy. I got the Gruyère and Onion burger with sweet potato fries and fried Brussels sprouts. The sides are so good and the burger was perfect! We got our food after 15 minutes even with busy restaurant. The inside was spacious and bathrooms clean. Parking is difficult.

    Crispy Teriyaki Chicken

    Got takeout from Gott's on a Friday night and was really satisfied with it! The crispy chicken sandwich really hit the spot. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The quality of the ingredients really stands out you can taste the difference. Service was quick and friendly, even during a Friday rush, and the space was clean and comfortable with plenty of seating inside and out. Parking can get a bit tricky depending on the time of day, but it's worth it. Gott's continues to deliver that elevated roadside experience delicious food, thoughtful service, and a fun, California-casual vibe. Definitely a solid go-to in downtown Walnut Creek!

    Didn't eat the food there, but it was very busy. We decided to get dessert and a soft serve dip cone. It was really good. Service was fast and the cone was good.. can't comment on the food quality and how it taste, but the soft serve was good in my book.

    big fan of Gott's, so i knew i had to try the walnut creek location! FOOD we tried the gruyère and carmelized onion burger as well as the garlic and regular fries. the burger had decent flavor just felt like it was missing something! would've been nice to have some lettuce or produce to accompany the patty, cheese, and onions. the garlic fries were amazing and the regular fries had the perfect crunch! SERVICE you order at the registers and pick up your food; just like at any regular Gott's! AMBIANCE super chill vibes, open seating with picnic style seating for the larger parties. PARKING huge adjacent parking garage and minimal street parking. will definitely be back in the future and excited to try something new the next time i visit!

    I thought Gotts was delicious. The patty on my burger was thick and good quality ground beef (I wish it would have had a bit more seasoning). The bun was nice. The shake was decently thick. Noah, at the register, was very pleasant and recommended adding PB to the cookies and cream shake - the Mister loved it. My aunt ordered a salad. The lettuce looked really fresh and the portion size was nice. There was a decent amount of seating available inside and outside. Its a family friend place so it was a bit loud. The food came out quickly. I like this place for group meetings so everyone can pay separately and there was more than adequate parking on a busy Saturday. I will definitely return.

    Avocado Tacos
    Alex M.

    Gott's in Walnut Creek is bustling on Friday evenings! I met up with a few friends for dinner, and we eagerly joined the line that stretched out the door. The line moved quickly, and the cashier even offered me a glass of ice water while I waited for my food. (Pro Tip: you can order your dessert ahead of time and get a voucher to pick it up later, or you can order dessert later at the pickup window.) There was still plenty of seating, so I sat at a booth while I waited for my order to be prepared. After about 15 minutes, my order was ready. I got the fried avocado tacos because they sounded intriguing, but I'll admit that I wasn't a fan. The blue corn tortillas were already soggy by the time I got back to my table, and they tore through as soon as I picked them up. There was way too much cabbage, and I ended up digging in with a fork and knife and leaving behind much of the soggy tortilla and cabbage. On a positive note, I enjoyed the fried avocado, which was both crispy and creamy - and it paired well with the chipotle mayo sauce. I think the taco was meant to resemble a fish taco, and I'll admit that it was a creative dish. I saved room for dessert and could not pass up the Strauss Creamery vanilla soft serve. To spruce things up, I ordered my soft serve with the butterscotch shell (similar to Magic Shell). The soft serve was simple yet decadent - and the line to order dessert was much shorter!

    Love the open seating. Can get loud. A little pricy but worth it. Sometimes the wait can be long but you are able to make orders online. Favorites are onion rings with ranch and their shakes.

    Alex L.

    First time coming here. I got the kimchi burger. There was a small wait, but the wait to get my food was longer. This place gets busy at night, so it's ideal to find a table in advance. The burger was decent, but probably not worth the price. The strawberry lemonade was okay. They have a good selection of food otherwise and a nice atmosphere. There is parking across the street.

    Is it possible to make a reservation?

    Are there any gluten free options?

    I got a gluten free bun but I think the fries must have cross contamination because I had a pretty severe reaction after eating there and I rarely have problems eating out.

    Food 5/5 Service 3.5/5…read moreAmbiance 2.5/5 I've been wanting to try this spot for a while and I'm glad I did. Unfortunately the rain caused a plumbing issue resulting in sewage back up and bathrooms and half of the seating were closed. Thus, the reason for the low ambiance score. The food was very good, everything was fresh and the combination of flavors were perfectly flavored. I ordered the chicken avocado bowl with Romain and quinoa as a base. You can pick your own and I subbed crunchy rice vs. tortilla chips. I loved my bowl and wistfully look back to try some of the other bowls I saw other patrons order. This is a fast casual spot, you place your order while going down a line to select ingredients. At the end your salad or bowl is tossed and ready to eat. I loved it and recommend without reservation.

    I've been a Sweetgreen customer since the original Mountain View location opened roughly 15 years…read moreago. Today was the worst customer service experience I've ever had at any Sweetgreen. I specifically requested a bowl for dine in because I strongly dislike eating out of the compostable cardboard containers. They affect the taste and overall dining experience for me. When I asked for a bowl, I was told none were available. The problem was that I could clearly see bowls in the restaurant. I was told they were "dirty" and unavailable. I also observed bowls being used for wrap preparation. I pointed out that there were other bowls visible, including plastic and porcelain bowls, but Store Manager Julia repeatedly cited "store policy" and offered no solution whatsoever. What was most disappointing was the complete lack of effort to accommodate a loyal customer. No attempt to wash a bowl. No alternative suggestion. No effort to find a manager-level solution. Just a flat "no." As a result, my wife ate her salad, my daughter ate her wrap, and I sat there watching because I refused to eat from the cardboard container. I've happily supported Sweetgreen for over 15 years, but after today's experience, that relationship is over. Other fast-casual restaurants like MIXT and Tender Greens have no issue providing proper dine-in bowls and plates when customers request them. The issue wasn't the bowl. It was the attitude, the unwillingness to help, and a manager who seemed more interested in hiding behind policy than solving a customer problem. After 15 years as a customer, I expected better. UPDATE: Sweetgreen responded with a generic, copy-and-paste apology that did not address any of the questions raised in this review. Specifically: * Does Sweetgreen provide dine in bowls or not? * Why are dine in bowls prominently featured in Sweetgreen's advertising and app if customers cannot use them? * Why was no attempt made to wash a bowl or otherwise accommodate a dine in customer? * Was Store Manager Julia correctly applying Sweetgreen policy, or was this simply poor customer service? I am still waiting for an answer.

As I entered, I eyed Cholita Linda, and since we had already eaten at the place near us, I knew what we wanted and would enjoy for our late lunch or early dinner... a Cubano! For those who might not know, a traditional Cubano sandwich is made with Cuban bread (a white bread loaf with a thin, crispy crust and a soft, airy inside. Usually, a moist palmetto leaf is placed on top of the dough before baking to create its signature split), Mojo-marinated roasted pork (slow-roasted in a marinade made of sour orange juice, garlic, oregano, and cumin), glazed ham (sweet, deli-style sliced ham), Swiss cheese, dill pickles, and yellow mustard. Of course, here in the US, the recipe is adjusted based on the location and available ingredients, but the core stays the same, which makes for a delicious sandwich. Cholita Linda's Cubano is made with pulled pork shoulder, black forest ham, mustard, pickles, aioli, and Swiss cheese on grilled French bread. Trust me when I tell you that it is a delicious version! Anyway, this location is very well managed and maintained. The staff are friendly and the place is clean and nicely kept. They have tables inside and outside the mall. On a warm day, you might prefer to sit outside and enjoy the fresh air while you eat.
