There’s a reason why Walnut Creek Yacht Club is such a popular dining destination: regulars praise this place for serving up fresh, high quality seafood in a comfortable and casual atmosphere. The dining room itself is bright and airy, thanks to 20-foot ceilings and a wall of windows (insider tip: request to be seated in one of the deep, comfortable booths if you want to linger over your meal). 

The menu includes a raw bar, so you can start your meal with a dozen oysters for the table. For dinner, regulars praise the Dungeness jumbo lump crab cakes topped with shaved asparagus and fennel, as well as the spicy mahi mahi fish tacos with avocado salsa. Whatever you order, you can expect it to be served quickly and with a smile, as this place has a reputation for quick and friendly service. Throughout the summer the restaurant also plays host to a variety of events, including live music, so check the website for a schedule.
