    Great food and great service for lunch yesterday. I especially enjoyed the vegan pizza and pulpo. I will try something from the bar menu next time.

    After receiving notification that Montesacro in Walnut Creek would stark serving at 9:00 am beginning May 20th, I made two reservations for two different days. Upon arriving for my first reservation the restaurant was closed up. There are two different menus out front, one of which listed their hours as open during my arrival time. Off to another cafe. A couple hours later I walked by Montesacro as they were just opening. When I asked them whether they were actually opening earlier beginning May 20th (the day before) and told them I had an email that they were, and made two reservations, they promptly responded with they were only open for breakfast during the weekend. I'm not sure where the disconnect is and why I was able to make the reservations if the Walnut Creek location wasn't really open (as the email stated it would be). However, I did rediscover La Scala on Main Street and they are amazing! I definitely will return there.

    Food and service is amazing as always. The space is very small so the seating is "cozy", but well worth it. All the Pastas and Pinzas are incredible and a solid goto.

    Always enjoy coming to this restaurant. My party almost all had the same thing—carbonara, and we all enjoyed our time. The service was attentive and hospitable. Thank you for a great evening!
