Lita in Walnut Creek is a gorgeous, high-end restaurant with stunning décor and a lively yet relaxed atmosphere. We went on a Monday night without a reservation and were seated right away at a great table — no hassle at all.

The Monday special was a three breaded shrimp taco plate served with three different salsas — absolutely scrumptious, and a great deal at only $15. My wife ordered Lita’s Steak dinner with Crispy Brussel Sprouts, and both dishes were outstanding. The steak was top-notch and perfectly paired with the plantains and rice. The Brussel sprouts were phenomenal, served with a flavorful curry sauce that really stood out.

Our server, Dominic, was excellent — attentive without being overbearing. He anticipated everything, bringing drink refills before we even had to ask, and his recommendations were spot-on.

Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience with great food, service, and atmosphere. We’ll definitely be returning.

Lita is a standout addition to the Walnut Creek dining scene. We dropped in on a whim at 3 PM and, despite the restaurant being fully committed through the evening, the front-of-house team was incredibly accommodating and found us space at the bar. The experience was seamless. The food and cocktail programs are excellent, but the hospitality is what truly shines—the team goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome. Highly recommended, though I’d suggest booking in advance given how popular it is!

My wife and I drove here from San Jose just to off a review that we saw on Tik Tok. The drive was well worth it and I’d do it again. The food was 10/10. My wife had the oxtail which fell off the bone. It was seasoned to perfection and the tenderness was next level. The oxtail was around $40 which I’d pay for everyday of the week. I had the shrimp curry pasta which was excellent as well. I recommend this restaurant for anyone who wants a great dining experience. The wait time was about 25 minutes for the bar and 1 hour plus for a table but for this food I see why.

Made reservations for a group of 10 and they were able to accommodate easily! It’s a crowded small space but still doable. The drinks were very good and strong which was good because there were all $15 and up. I had the jerk salmon and was so delicious and seasoned so perfectly!

I’ll start with the negative, when we arrived we weren’t greeted because the three managers where outside having a meeting. When the finally acknowledged us the General Manager , Micheal I believe is his name , was so off putting I’ll think twice about coming back. I have been here several times but he was rude , spoke to me aggressively, and was a poor reputation for management at best . They assistant manager (male) did try to rectify the situation and was very apologetic but both the GM and what I assume was another female manager NEED TRAINING and need to learn to talk with respect.

The food : Top tier this wasn’t our first time here and when we have been here in the past we got the opportunity to meet the Chef , I really hope feedback is shared with him, his front of the house stafff doesn’t match the experience you expect to have especially at this price point.

I could write a book about Lita’s, their Food, Service and Atmosphere are Stellar. Under the Direction of Executive Chef Sean Streete the Variety, the Presentation, and The Taste of the Food is like no other Experience you’ll Ever have. Do yourself a Favor and check them out. I’ve invited 2 and 22 people at different times and All my Guests brags to Everyone about Lita’s.

We were on a mission to find the best happy hour in the Bay Area, and Lita completely surprised us in every way!
We’ve been comparing cocktails from everywhere including all the major cities in the world, and Lita’s are right up there.
Happy hour food? Absolutely delicious—easily as good as the Michelin-starred spots we’ve tried in downtown SF( I am serious) .
We’ll definitely be coming back to explore the lunch and dinner menus!

Food was top tier. Empanadas were some of the best I’ve ever had! The mock tails were amazing too!

Salt cod fritters were light but flavorful and quite crispy but not greasy. Garden salad was fantastic and they sell it in half portions which are still large. Oxtails were so well cooked, soft and succulent. The mushroom quesadilla was fantastic, deeply savory. Lightly crispy and lightly cheesy, the mushrooms were the star. They were so filled with umami. The whole meal was $100, tax and tip included, a very special treat.

We had an incredible dining experience at Lita on a Tuesday night around 7pm. The atmosphere was lively yet relaxed, with a diverse mix of guests—from birthday celebrations and family dinners to friends catching up and what looked like a few first dates. It felt like the perfect spot for any occasion.

The food was absolutely fabulous, and the service was top notch. Our server, Javier, made the night even better with his warm personality, great smile, and deep knowledge of the menu—from cocktails to dessert. He was attentive without being overbearing, and you could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does.

Every dish we tried was exquisite, but the Yum Numb Salt & Pepper shrimp appetizer was a standout. Perfectly seasoned and cooked—definitely a must-try. The Jerk Salmon was just spicy enough for those that like heat but still want to taste the flavors. The Black Pepper Shrimp is a sure winner if you’re undecided. For dessert, the pineapple upside down cake with rum currant sauce was unforgettable. I’d come back just for that alone.

As for drinks, everything we tasted was delicious, but my favorite was the Isle de Tigre—refreshing, balanced, and beautifully crafted.

I highly recommend Lita for anyone looking for excellent food, stellar service, and a vibrant yet comfortable vibe. Can’t wait to go back!
