The view is amazing. If you’re looking for a good restaurant by the bay, this is it. Recommended for special occasions. The staff is pretty good and efficient. They were able to prepare the food as we wanted. An area of improvement: better outdoor seating.

I can’t say enough how impressed I am with this place has the most clean friendly atmosphere I’ve ever experienced! The service is absolutely amazing here! When I first walked up the lady was extremely kind and gave us the entire tour of the restaurant and gave us a little Back stories and names of each rooms. We found an amazing seat by three open Windows next to a fireplace overlooking the water and sailboats absolutely breathtaking. We ordered the Catch of the Day and the crab shrimp raviolis and we couldn’t eat them fast enough so unfortunately I couldn’t even take pictures. We tried several cocktails that were extremely professionally made perfectly Blended. If I could give this place 10 Stars I will give it 20 Stars. I will definitely be coming back to this place as much as I possibly can I am new to the area and this is hands down my favorite place! Everyone here was extremely professional and friendly when we came to dessert time they rolled up with an extremely beautiful well-designed organized cart with all the options for desserts freshly made so you can see exactly what you’re getting my mind was absolutely blown at this point they also had absolutely great recommendations that I took each and every one of them and was extremely impressed with all of them. I highly recommend bringing anyone here from kids to family to loved ones you will not be disappointed can’t wait to come here at night before they have a beautiful light displays all around the restaurant.

If you don’t know where it’s at, it’s the old Salute`s in Richmond. We were there for a wedding dinner with a big group of 35. The servers were very nice and the food came out quickly and hot. They were very accommodating to our group. New menu and the food was great

My golf club had a luncheon here. The service was exceptional. Our choices for the group meals were Caesar salad with chicken or shrimp or salmon. I had the fish and it was very good.

Stopped in on a Friday for a nice lunch. Beautiful views of the bay, San Francisco and the harbor. Staff was very friendly and attentive the place was nice and clean. They have plenty of outdoor seating due to covid, but there is also plenty if seating inside. There us a nice little lounge and bar with great views as well. Most importantly, the food was delicious! I had a yummy cup of chowder and the fish and chips which were both insanely good. She had a chicken sandwich and loved it. Full bar with beer and wine. A very nice place indeed!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Lara’s Fine Dining in Richmond and was thoroughly impressed with my experience. After a long flight into San Francisco Airport, I was in search of a delicious meal to refuel, and Lara’s did not disappoint.

I had the fettuccine with prawns, and the sauce was sublime! The service was great as well. Unfortunately I was visiting from out of state and will sadly probably never get to enjoy dining at Lara’s again. Highly recommend!!!!
