It's easy, in the rush to come up with the latest and greatest trendy restaurant idea, for restaurateurs to lose sight of what many people want more than fads. Sometimes, let's face it, we just want a decent meal at a decent price that is fresh and healthy. No gimmicks.
So, happily, in the midst of all the upscale shuffle, a relative newcomer to Walnut Creek seeks to meet that basic need. Lettuce came along to provide straightforward food at palatable prices in a streamlined format. More

Walnut Creek has just the thing for diners looking to simplify.
By Michaela Jarvis
Sometimes, a restaurant opens that feels as if its moment has come. Wander past the baskets of fresh fruit in the entryway of Lettuce, and you may start to get the idea that Bahman Tehrani’s new restaurant is one of those. The restaurant, with its produce on display, its white walls, and its bright yellow accents, feels shiny and new—a fresh breeze in an era that seems to call out for change. More

Review: Lettuce eat salad in Walnut Creek (Let us eat salad in Walnut Creek?)
By Chrissa Ventrelle
MEN WANTING to meet women in Walnut Creek should trade in their beer steins for salad forks. Odds are good at Lettuce, a delicious soup/salad/sandwich spot where nine of 10 customers are women.
It's easy to see what women find attractive about Lettuce. A meal here refreshes like a mini spa visit, beginning with glass pitchers of fruit-infused water and ending with homemade peach-blueberry galette (a flat or round crusty cake). In the middle is a spalike menu with 16 salad offerings, six sandwich options and five soups. More

Had the "Local" sandwich, which was pretty tasty. I just don't know if it was ten dollars tasty.

This was a pre-YEE dinner spot for Lovie and me. Being the health nut he is, I've been meaning to try this place out with him. After yesterday's visit, it baffles me to think we waited this long to…

This is how bad I am with my review up-keeping. Hands down one of my favorite salad eateries in the EB. I come here on sporadic date nights with my man. The Napa is our #1. Their sandwiches are…

THE BEST HEALTHY OPTION IN WALNUT CREEK. They feature organic locally grown produce thrown together in such a way that your mouth is watering from beginning to end. You can customize your salad or go…

Not so great. The service I got was really slow for there being two people in line and like 6 employees, 4 of which were doing nothing. I got the half pasta half sandwich. I chose the carbonara pasta…

I frequent Lettuce because it's right across the street from the Lesher Center for the Arts, where I've been performing in some shows. Lettuce is a great place to get a quick, healthy meal before…

Great food, prices, service.

Love the salads and soups, but I have to wonder what the point is of giving a crouton-sized slice of foccacia with every salad. It's kind of a joke. Also, the small soup small salad combo is a…
