I rate this place a 100 out of 10. The food, the service, the atmosphere, and the consistency were fantastic. I recommended reservations, but the bar and the communal table are also available. The food was absolutely delicious. The drinks were beautiful and well made. I can’t wait to go back!

Exciting new Caribbean cruise restaurant, located on Bonanza street Walnut Creek. Be sure to use the Yelp reservation app to book a table. They were completely booked on Saturday and Sunday weekend. Opt for a spot at the bar for a party of 2 or less. I highly recommend the braised oxtails: coconut rice, baked sweet potato in a savory sauce! The meat is so tender and delicious!

Lots was busy, so reservations are a must. The atmosphere was modern and inviting, waitstaff helpful and fast. Every bite was full of flavors. Couldn’t finish my meal before planning what I’m going to have next time…

We had a great time in Lita, you must have a reservation, but if not, you can ask to be seated at the bar area. The food was excellent, the service was excellent, the drinks were incredible, and we are coming back. Order the trio ceviche. You won’t regret it.

First time here, and it was such an amazing experience! I really enjoyed all the food and the drinks. We had a little bit of everything, appetizers, entrée and dessert. If you are in Walnut Creeck, you should visit LITA ! Service was excellent I’m in love with this restaurant and I will come back soon!

Creative take on Mexican, American, and Caribbean flavors. The Balanca signature cocktail was well balanced, fresh and paired well with all food. If rolling dry, the mango iced tea does the trick.

This place is very instagramable! Everything is pretty and delicious! Drinks are good, food is good as well! Me and my friends got shots, drinks, poke bowl, 3 type ceviches, beef empanadas and a stake!

Amazing food and drinks! This has got to be one of my favorite place in the East Bay! Place can be loud but the service was great! We ordered the street corn, crispy sprouts, beet tartare and the best of all the coconut braised pork belly taco! Everything was just flavorful and delicious!

Cristal Yee
Great cocktails and food. The service was great and my water was always refilled without me asking. Had the tasting ceviche. The guava kampachi was my favorite. Also had the coconut curry empanadas and Caribbean bowls (jerk salmon and black pepper shrimp). The jerk salmon had freshly jerk seasoning and it wasn’t dry. The black pepper shrimp was my favorite.

Love the vibes here, especially for dinner! Been a few times and have always had great servers. Good for lunch, girls night, date night, etc. Expect a long wait (especially in the evening) if you don’t have a reservation.
