Wow. What an amazing place. Such eclectic and robust food and flavors. Gilberto our server was on top of everything so educated on the menu and flavor profiles. A great place to spend a Friday evening.

The Slanted Door in San Ramon proved to be a memorable culinary journey, combining mouthwatering dishes with exceptional service.
From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere of warm hospitality was palpable. Kristen, our knowledgeable server, expertly navigated us through the appetizing starters, each recommendation bursting with unique and tantalizing flavors.
In the midst of this delightful gastronomic experience, a unique spectacle caught my attention – a bottle of Jacob Poli L’arzente Brandy. With its slender, elongated neck, petite base, and an intriguing jewel (see attached photo), it stood as an uncommon artifact in the typical restaurant scene.
Noticing my curiosity and the photos I was taking, Daniel, exhibiting exemplary customer service, paused his tasks to engage in my interest. He took the time to ensure I had all the information about this unique brandy, adding a personal touch to the entire dining experience.
The Imperial Rolls were an absolute delight, their crunch perfectly complemented by a delectable dipping sauce. Yet, it was the Jicama Salad that ultimately stole the show. Its perfect bite and fresh flavors made it an undeniable highlight of the day.
The Slanted Door in San Ramon is a gem in the culinary world, offering not just fantastic food, but also an exceptionally attentive service. The personal attention from the staff, especially Daniel’s, made our visit feel special and tailored. I wholeheartedly recommend this establishment to any food lover seeking an elevated dining experience.
July 2023 update: We had the oppurtunity to sit on the bar and talk with an amazing mixologist named Ricardo, we later found out that he’s Daniel’s brother! 🫶😊 I’m a huge daiquiri fan and so he made me a Bumble Bee and it was perfectly balanced with the two different rums, little egg white froth, cherry design on top, there were other ingredients in it but after two of those just remember the fun time and not the recipe! Thanks to the GM Bobby and to Ricardo for making our stay extra special, we will be back soon!!
Great customer service, food came on a timely manner and was amazing! Try it
All! portions was perfect for me. Beef stew came with a Choice of brown rice or white rice and a side of sautéed green beans. Best to make reservations ahead of time since it can get busy!
We got the beef stew (with white rice), the beef pho, a vietnamese coffee and a pear gallette. The food was good except for the pho. Service was excellent and the artmosphere was quite nice. Its a decent place to go to impress someone (it is a bit pricy though)
Great dinner service
I wish they served the chicken bao on the in person dining menu !
Have been coming here since it opened and has never failed!!!! The food is top notch, some food I can’t get anywhere else definitely. The service is always so amazing. I’ve brought my niece here since she was a baby and they have always been so so so accommodating. Definitely recommend it to anyone and everyone.
4-stars for decent food (really depends on what you order), excellent service and staff, spacious and beautiful ambiance. It’s also very family and kid friendly.
Yellowtail appetizer was tasty. Fresh tasting and thick slabs of fish in a flavorful sauce.
The shaking beef does not disappoint. Huge cubes of meat and delicious sautéed vegetables. Great with rice.
The vermicelli noodles with Dungeness crab was good. Pretty mild flavor so recommend using one of their many sauces.
Pineapple spritzer was sooo good. Really refreshing and delicious.
Portions are generous, I think. I had leftovers that I took home.
We came here with a large party for a holiday dinner and it was ON POINT!!! Food was exceptional! Drinks were delicious! And the service was wonderful!
Food was very good,wine and spirit list was excellent,service was decent as well.Although I do not like a 20 percent gratuity automatically added.Would happily return.
Perfect Food, staff, service. This was my 2nd visit, we got the salmon and Pho the 2nd time. The 1st visit was Vietnamese coffee and desert which was perfect. The staff was so attentive each time, I felt at home
We had a Thursday dinner at this popular location. Started with beer,crispy veg spring rolls which were good. We had the Black cod which was also great. I had the chicken clay pot which was a little too sweet for my taste. We had brussel sprouts as a side which I feel, was over fried.
The service was superb and very courteous folks. The food was okay. Found the dishes sweet and a little unbalanced. Four stars for the great service. 3 stars for the food.
A modern and well done restaurant with clearly professional chef and staff. I would say I was not amazed by the food but they were definitely interesting and high quality.
I was here for a company holiday party and everything was great! Food, drinks and service were very good. Highly recommend!
