Credo is the Latin word for "I believe." We believe that good food and good company go hand in hand. We believe in the time-honored tradition of the dinner table debate and the swirling mix of ideas that makes this country great. We believe simple things can be brilliant, like authentic, responsibly sourced ingredients, attention to detail and gracious hospitality. Credo opened on Martin Luther King Jr. day in 2010. Our chef, Larry Finn, creates a menu that reflects his deep appreciation of Italian culinary traditions combined with Northern California sensibilities. Distilling robust and complex flavors from simple ingredients, local produce, sustainable seafood and meats, and imported Italian specialty items.

    This is one of my favorite down-town lunch spots. The food is great and service is friendly and efficient, so you can have a great meal, and also get in and out quickly, if you need to get back to the office. My one complaint is that it is VERY loud in the restaurant. It is hard to hear. I recommend this place for parties of two only, as it's hard to hear around a bigger table.

    Restaurant wasn’t busy. Took awhile to have our server come by table. Recommended the soup which was great. The brown butter ravioli with butternut squash purée was cold. I should have sent it back but didn’t. Ravioli wasn’t fully cooked.

    Great staff and tasty food. Happy to see they were relatively busy on a Wednesday at 5:30pm. Check out the happy hour too.

    Spring lettuce salad with salmon for $36 might be worth it somewhere else, but not here. Small to medium size serving - salmon piece was small and a bit over done. The lettuce included several “off” pieces. Entire salad was bland - needed salt and pepper. I used to go to Credo before COVID and was always satisfied. I will not be back. My lunch date had lasagna and said it was overly cheesy. Customer service was cheerful and responsive.
