It’s a churrascaria, so you can’t really go wrong. You get all the same delicious meat options as most others like picanha, top sirloin, ribeye, and filet mignon etc. A few things that they have that others don’t are salmon, candied bacon, cheesy garlic bread and grilled cheese and honey. The chicken drumsticks were seasoned differently than the other places too so definitely try that out. The signature juices are absolutely delicious as is everything here. Only complaint is the price is a bit high, $190 for my 11 y/o and I. I’m use to paying about $120 or maybe a little less for us. But overall it was a really lovely experience.

Server and food were great. Margaritas were exceptional.

From the moment we walked into Elia, we knew we were in for a treat. The atmosphere is absolutely stunning—think glowing blue lights, natural decor, and walls adorned with beautifully spaced art pieces that felt like a gallery. Sitting across from my wife, I couldn’t have asked for a better view. The service was equally impressive. We were warmly greeted at the door and invited to enjoy a drink at the bar while waiting for our table amidst a lively crowd. Our server, Lilia, was outstanding. Despite being busy, she made sure we were well taken care of and never felt overlooked. Now, the food—wow. We started with the octopus, followed by the filet mignon and lobster paella. Each dish was cooked to perfection. The paella was packed with rich flavors and seafood, and the lobster tail was perfectly done. The filet mignon? Easily one of the best steaks I’ve had in Walnut Creek, perfectly seasoned and tender. To finish, we indulged in the chocolate cake, which was nothing short of spectacular—the best I’ve ever had. Elia gave us an amazing night filled with exceptional food, ambiance, and service. We’ll absolutely be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience. Thank you, Elia, for making our evening unforgettable!

This was a great way to start the new year, dinner at Fiore Restaurant. The service and food=were both perfect. Hafed who is the owner did an awesome job as our server. Plenty of parking makes this a perfect location for a romantic dinner.

We came to celebrate our daughter's birthday, and everything was awesome -- food, servers, manager, cashier in the prize section. Everyone we encountered was so helpful and friendly, even providing a birthday candle when we forgot ours.
