Vinoteca - Danville, CA (Contra Costa County, California)

Vinoteca - Danville, CA (Contra Costa County, California)

Vinoteca is located in downtown Danville on Prospect Avenue, just around the corner from Starbucks Coffee on Hartz Avenue. Vinoteca features live music several days a week and they have a romantic "wine bar" type atmosphere...a perfect fit for charming downtown Danville.

Vinoteca offers "small plates...big tastes...great wine!" During our first visit to Vinoteca, we decided to try their "swimmer of the day" fish called "Walu" in Hawaii and Fiji, otherwise known as escolar or butterfish...or super white tuna when served raw as sushi or sashimi. The side dishes we sampled were: french fries (light, crispy and served in a cone-shaped paper-wrapped iron basket), creamed spinach (excellent) and sauteed veggies (delicious). Pardon the poor quality food pics, but it was the best my iPhone could achieve in such low light conditions...only a single tea light lit the table!

Leo's Chinese Restaurant - Danville, CA (Contra Costa County, California)

Leo's Chinese Restaurant - Danville, CA (Contra Costa County, California)

Leo's Chinese Restaurant is located in Danville, California and it's my favorite Chinese restaurant in all of Contra Costa county! The previous restaurant in this location was called DeMing's Asian Restaurant. Their dining room is decorated in the traditional upscale Chinese restaurant decor with "good luck" bamboo and a soothing water fountain at the entry. Service is excellent and their food is yummylicious!

My two favorite dishes at Leo's Chinese Restaurant are their Tangerine Beef and Seafood Combination. If you're ever in the Danville area and craving Chinese food...I highly recommend Leo's Chinese Restaurant!
