If you love tri-tip you have to "tri" one at Buckhorn Grill. This regional chain is famous for their char-roasted tri-tip – in salads, platters and sandwiches. Their location in downtown Walnut Creek next to Century Theaters makes it convenient for a casual dinner and a movie date just a short trip from Town Center Apartments.

For a hearty meal, go for the tri-tip platter served with mashed potatoes and gravy, veggies, and a cornbread biscuit. Their gourmet salads are just as filing and the Yik Yak is a customer favorite with mixed greens, cabbage, crispy pasta, jicama, veggies and more, with a sweet same dressing. Service is reportedly always fast at this location, even when busy. When the weather's pleasant, you can dine on the outdoor patio.
