Food was great! Our waiter was conscientious and patient as we wanted to visit before order dinner.
August 31, 2019
All the food was excellent. We have not found anything on the menu that didn't taste good.

Xenia was a favorite of ours for years. Unfortunately this visit disappointed across the board in service, food appearance & quality. If this had been my first visit I would have rated the experience fair to poor but because we have had better experiences in the past, rated it neutral. Will give it another try in the future
May 23, 2019
The food is always excellent and the servers are pleasant and very friendly and helpful.

January 9, 2018
Felt rushed as we arrive at 8pm and restaurant closed at 9pm. Usually service is much better than I experienced at my recent visit. Was empty other than 1 other table. Good portions but food quality can be hit or miss.

The chicken cordon bleu was very good. The chicken Parmesan was great. Service very good and friendly.
October 22, 2017
The service and food were excellent. We were seated by the divider by the door, so it was cold every time someone came in and out the door. We would not sit there again. Very noisy.
October 22, 2017
I ordered the Fire Roasted Chicken and thought it was dry. The vegetables and risotto on the same plate were very good and enough to make a meal for me. The waitress did offer a replacement which I declined.
October 20, 2017

Our party included adults and teens , one of whom is a vegan and everyone was able to choose a meal that was to their tastes. We had pasta, pizza, veggie egg rolls, chicken and a very delicious short rib entree. A very nice place for family dining. Our server was attentive but not hovering.
August 18, 2017
We dine at Xenias several times per month and have for years. The owners are very hands on and their employees are very pleasant and efficient.

The waiter gave us very poor service and accused us of not leaving a tip he had confused our tab with someone else and was very rude, yelled at us out the door as we were leaving the restaurant. We reported it to the restaurant the next day they said they would get back to us and never would never did.

FOOD WAS GREAT AS USUAL. THE RESTURANT IS REALLY LOUD. IT IS HARD TO CARRY ON A CONVERSATION. WE USUALLY EAT OUTSIDE ON THE TERRACE, BUT TONIGHT IT WAS WINDY AND A LITTLE COLD.
February 28, 2016
The Caesar salad was a little dry, but the server provided more dressing and it was great. We ordered the chicken Parmesan and the chicken cordon bleu. Both were excellent.

November 8, 2015
This is one of my favorite restaurants!
November 3, 2015
The grouper was very good & the atmosphere excellent. The wait time for dinner seemed rather long, 30 min. A leisurely pace is nice, but it did seem quite long. Loved your Foxboro wine as well!

July 13, 2015

Filet was to die for! Great service.
June 5, 2015
Great pizza and salads topped off with a nice bottle of wine
May 11, 2015
Instead of butter with the bread, try some olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Or maybe even a mixture of garlic, olive oil, and some herbs. Also, Since taking my vegetarian daughter to your restaurant Saturday night, we noticed how few vegetarian options there really are. She's also lactose intolerant, so it limited her options further. There are so many ways to be creative with vegetarian foods, and especially in the Danville area, I think there would be she's also lactose intolerant, so it limited her options further. There are so many ways to be creative with vegetarian foods, and especially in the Danville/Alamo area, I think there would be a definite market. You do so many dishes well. Keep it up!
May 3, 2015
Wonderful food, good service, great menu, and a nice outside patio to sit. we will be back.
April 11, 2015
Both food and service were very good.
February 24, 2015
food was very good. server in beginning was very good but decined as mealt went on. had to continually request more water,tea etc...check was presented before asking if dessert was needed.. a smile/thank you at end would have been appreciated
February 23, 2015
The staff is very friendly and service is great. The food is always good. We like the casual atmosphere.
February 21, 2015
Quality and portion size were impressive, as was the service.
February 13, 2015
It must have been family night at this restaurant as it was full of young loud kids, the noise level was so bad I couldn't hear my in-laws talking. It felt like a pizza parlor atmosphere..which is great if that's what you are planning. Service was slow but the food was all good.
February 9, 2015
First timers! The halibut was wonderful! Loved all of the veggies; light on the starch. My husband had the tilapa. Switched out the mashed potatoes for the risotto (not a mashed potato fan). EXCELLENT! Loved the wine. We'll be back! Minor suggestion: Change out the butter with some vinegar and oil. Or, better yet: infuse some olive oil with garlic and rosemary. That would be awesome!
February 2, 2015
We had Saturday breakfast/brunch and the four of us all really enjoyed what we ordered-steak and eggs, French toast with Canadian bacon and eggs benedict (2 of us). Delicious! The restaurant is very nice and it looks like it would be a great place to sit outside too.
January 7, 2015
Excellent food and service. Casual atmosphere. Nice place to spend time with family or friends.
January 6, 2015
Karen our waitress was amazing!!Food is always a 10 plus!!
December 31, 2014
The lamb chops were wonderfully prepared.The sauce was very tasty. The pork chop with the apple chutney was very tasty also.
December 22, 2014
Always too noisy unless mostly empty -otherwise great. A little sound suppression panels, carpets would go a long way
November 30, 2014
Excellent in quality of food and service at a good cost.
November 23, 2014
The waitress was awesome!
October 18, 2014
Food and service were outstanding. Would come back again.
September 27, 2014
Took advantage of a lovely night an ate on the porch.
September 25, 2014
We started with the Calamari appetizers which had a light Japanese breading that was wonderful. The pork chop was so flavorful with an apple glaze, sauce and side of diced apples. Drinks were refilled when almost empty even though the place was really busy by the time we left. Too full to try the deserts. More than enough food take some extra home.
September 22, 2014
we really enjoyed the spaghetti carbonara. the pancakes were fluffy and yummy and the belgian waffles too. the steaks were as we ordered medium rare. hashbrowns and sunnyside eggs were perfect too!. It didn't take long either...We were lucky they were not busy this sunday brunch
September 8, 2014
Food, service. Every thing was great.
August 25, 2014
Always a very pleasant wait staff and the food is great!
August 23, 2014
As always, it is too noisy.
August 13, 2014
our waitress was extremely helpful with menu items. The spinach/artichoke appetizer was delicious and plentiful! Our entrees were very good as was the chocolate truffle cake dessert. All portions were large - we took all of the leftovers home , as a matter of fact!
August 7, 2014
My family loves Xenia's. Living in Alamo, it is definitely our go- to restaurant. We consistently have good meals and the service is always exceptional. I am always surprised so many people have not been there before. If you are one of these people, you definitely need to change that.
August 3, 2014
A bit noisy.
August 3, 2014
The last time we were in this restaurant we were served rice with our curry. This time, we purchased the order of curry thinking that white rice would be included however, nothing was included. We had to pay $5 extra for a serving of rice. However, there was a platter on the menu which was an order of curry, basmati rice, dal and yogurt. The waitress failed to tell us that nothing was included with an order which was not a platter. Who in their right mind would eat a bowl of curry without bread or rice. Rice and curry go hand in hand. This was a bizarre and upsetting experience. I will not go to this restaurant ever again. It was ridiculous. Offering curry without anything is like offering a sandwich without the bread. Also, if we knew, we would have purchased the platter instead we actually paid more for our side or rice to go with our curry and actually received less items. Awful!!!1
July 27, 2014
Excellent food at fair pricing,excellent service and great outside.
July 18, 2014
Great service and wonderful food.
July 11, 2014
We like the atmospher almost as much as the food. great place.
July 11, 2014
Simply sublime...every single time!
June 23, 2014
Our waitress was personable, efficient and very upbeat both with her suggestions and comments.
June 22, 2014
It's a very good restaurant overall, but the interior noise level is almoost a no-go. Some sound deadening improvements would make it rate excellent.
June 20, 2014
The staff is so friendly. Jerry makes you feel like you are his best friend. The food is fabulous!! I always have the halibet encrusted by hashbrowns. The sauce is so yummy, I can't wait to go there again.
June 14, 2014
Love the calamari and risotto, salad was fresh and delish soup was awesome!!
June 1, 2014
Food and service were very good, like the atmosphere and enjoy sitting in the booths, overall good value for the experience.
May 26, 2014
The food taste is not like before
May 24, 2014
I love the potato crusted halibut. I come to Xenia's often and have never had a bad meal here!
May 12, 2014

April 23, 2014
Too noisy for normal conversation
April 21, 2014
The filet was great!
April 16, 2014
Lighting was terrible. The A/C was freezing cold so much so we had to get our sweatshirts from the car in order to eat somewhat comfortably. Very crowded & noisy.
April 15, 2014
Very nice waiter, who is one of the owners. Great food.
April 8, 2014
Xenia's has the best braised short ribs. My only complaint is that I noticed the patio area where we sat was not very clean.
April 6, 2014
Entrees were great, but cheesecake did not have berries and the raspberry sauce was overly sweet, I guess it was to make up for the tasteless cheesecake. Spinach salad was almost dry.
April 3, 2014
Food and service were great but have to say the décor is a little tired. Time for a little facelift.
April 3, 2014
It was fine but almost too noisy to talk.
March 30, 2014
Good service, nice ambience, good selection of food and drink.
March 24, 2014
Good service, good food.
March 23, 2014
Service was good. We enjoyed the calamari appetizer. There is a great variety of entrees at reasonable prices. My calamari steak with risotto and asparagus was very good, and my daughter loved her salmon and mashed potatoes. My wife liked the proteins in the paella, but the sauce was oversalted and she was not able to eat much of it.
March 18, 2014
The skirt steak with bacon mashed potatoes was veryvery good. Even the vegetables were delicious
March 15, 2014
a bit loud but everything else was good
March 15, 2014
The halibut was cooked to perfection!
March 14, 2014
Our order took way to long - approx. 45 min. I would question if I will go back. Last time we went, same thing happened. NOT FUN !!!!
February 20, 2014
I personally had your CA omlette with bacon & avocado and it was fantastic! Other members of the group were very satisfied with their choices
February 16, 2014
Would have given it a "5" except for the noise level on a Saturday night, with young children on one side of us and an energetic "girls night out" on another side of us. Previous visit, on a Friday night several months ago, was much better noise level.
February 14, 2014
Fabulous find in Alamo. We started with the Calamari which had a panko breading and was very light and tasty.Then the butter lettuce salad. Comes with house dressing that does not over power the salad, but covers everything,again very light and tasty.We ordered the potatoe crusted halibut and mango salsa pork chop. Both were so good we each swapped plates half way through to enjoy both meals. All the food is mediterranean style and seasonings are excellant. Light but vibrant. Nothing over powers the taste of the meal but compliments each dish.
February 14, 2014
Good food. Good prices. I'll come back again.
February 2, 2014
Service was very good and so was the food
February 1, 2014
We were the only people in the restaurant and thought this was odd for 6 pm on a Friday night. The person that waited on us us likely the owner.. he wasn't terribly friendly.
February 1, 2014
The halibut was cooked to perfection and the service was great.
January 18, 2014
Our waitress was fabulous and the food very good!
January 18, 2014
Very loud. Server responded poorly when I told him about a problem with my entree which was "swimming" in butter. He told me it wasn't butter. I sent it back after eating about a third of it.
January 13, 2014
Great service and food
January 3, 2014
excellent menu... enjoyed the paella and the wife was pleased with the salmon
December 27, 2013
cioppino was excellent
December 23, 2013
It was FREEZING in there. There is no door between the bar and outdoor lounge, so when it's cold outside, you're going to freeze inside. The food was so-so, and in addition to eating two meals there, we took home sandwiches for the next day's lunch. Both sandwiches were supposed to have potato salad, but they put fries in one, which never re-heat well, so they got thrown out. The potato salad was terrible because the potatoes were almost raw. They tried to put too many things in with the potatoes and it just didn't taste good, so that was also thrown out.
December 21, 2013
Best place around great service and food is unbelievable delicious.
November 27, 2013
Good menu suggestions from wait staff
November 4, 2013
food is very good but is offset negatively by the high noise level that makes it uncomfortable to dine if restaurant is at all busy.
November 2, 2013
Service has declined the past few visits. There is just not enough servers or bus boys when it may get busy.We had to get up and find our own utensils because we could not get anyone's attention.
October 19, 2013
Everything was excellent with the exception of the noise factor.
October 5, 2013
The food was so-so. I had the Chicken Cordon Bleu. The chicken was moist and juicy, but there was not much ham or cheese inside, and the amount of sauce was skimpy. My husband had the salmon. It came with a small scoop of guacamole, which did not seem to pair well with the fish.
September 21, 2013
The noisiest restaurant I have ever been in.Diners were trying to out yell each other to be heard.
September 5, 2013
The server was very pleaant and knowledgable. the food was excellent.
September 2, 2013
Our food took a long time.
August 28, 2013
Food is always very good. Service was really excellent
August 19, 2013
Great food/environment!
August 16, 2013
Great food and service. We will definitely go back.
August 11, 2013
The experience was excellent and I often recommend Xenia to others if only on the quality of the food. This is not to negelect exellent service and good prices.
August 2, 2013
Wonderful Calamari and steak. Attentive staff and Manager. Nice environment.
July 25, 2013
Our waitress seemed business and was short handed.
July 21, 2013
Excellent menu and servicve
July 14, 2013
Food and service excellent. go again filet mignon superb
July 13, 2013
I love the potato crusted halibet!!! The lemon sauce is terrific. Hubby had linguini with shrimp and clams, terrific as well. Very welcoming and friendly here. Yes, it's noisy, no carpet, only 2 booths. The tables have hard chairs. The food is fabulous.
July 10, 2013
Service was excellent. Food was great. Only exception was that my guest ordered a Basic Burger and it was served with cheese, which wasn't listed on the menu. Waitress offered to serve the hamburger without cheese, but guest was OK with removing the cheese herself.
July 7, 2013
Service was very good and friendly. Food came out hot and tasty. Prices are very reasonable. Will come back.
July 1, 2013
The house salad was amazing! Plenty enough for 2 to share. The filet mignon was great, and the pommes frites were fantastic!
June 30, 2013
Only problem was that the air condition system was down and the repair service was over loaded.
June 23, 2013
Filet over cooked - ordered medium, came out well done. Server nicely offered to re-cook. Came out 'SLIGHTLY' less done, still WAAY over cooked, and 15-minutes AFTER entire table was finished with their meals. Was (amazingly..) still on bill..
June 15, 2013
Food was very good, restaurant is kid friendly with a reasonably priced kids menu.

We love Xenia. Always a great meal and plenty of food.
May 5, 2013
When we opened the door, the smell of garlic and aromas invited us in. The selection was great. Two of us had the halibut. Believe it or not, it was super!!! It had a crusted potato on the outside with a yummy lemon piccata. The bread was REAL S.F. sourdough. The beet-goat cheese salad was great, calamari was excellent. The clam-shrimp linguini was excellent. The food here was like some 5 star resaurant would serve.It is very casual, noisy, but the food here is terrific!
April 28, 2013
The employees are extremely helpful and courteous. The food is excellent...
April 25, 2013
Place was packed when we arrived. We were seated quickly and taken care of right away. The server was very good and attentive.
April 22, 2013
Great local restaurant, nice enough for couples night out but comfortable for family dinner. One of best children's menus we have seen, great variety and healthy options. Adult menu is varied with reasonable prices for quality meals. Service is generally very good, friendly and positive attitude.
April 16, 2013
They were out of iceberg lettuce, yet Safeway shares the same parking lot. Their expresso machine was broken. None of this was disclosed before ordering these items.
April 14, 2013
Great food and excellent service.

The parents food was good, but the kids meals were not very good.
March 7, 2013
Everything was very good. The only negative was the noise level. We had a difficult time hearing the folks at our table,
March 6, 2013
Was not impressed when I walked in the door, no ambience very stark and plain, did not look clean.
March 3, 2013
Excellent food, wait staff friendly and attentive to our needs and wants. An enjoyable experience that, even though we live across the bay, will try to visit again soon.

Service was good but could be refined, more table checks and refills. Always refill ice on iced tea. Make sure you re-fire from scratch any dish if it comes out not as requested.

The fillet was fabulous. The pork chop was as tender as the fillet and the wood burning oven marguerite pizza was very, very good.
January 19, 2013
The fish was great but a little dry. My friend's meat was also over cooked.
January 17, 2013
Food not what expected.
January 8, 2013
Great service & food.

The food was good but was better the last time we ate there.
December 13, 2012
Very good meal, no complaints at all on the quality and presentation of the food.
December 9, 2012
Our server did a fantastic job w recommendations. More importantly, the meal marched or exceeded our expectations.
December 8, 2012
Fast and attentive service.
December 3, 2012
Dining room can be loud from small children.
November 25, 2012
Like the atmosphere and the food was very good.
November 20, 2012
The food was bland......the meatloaf was blah way to much red sauce. Potatoes tasted fake....risotto had no flavor at all. Was so looking forward to dinner.
November 5, 2012
Seafood Paella was great, but we would not order the lamb shank again; not tender, too fatty, the the polenta was too dry and had little flavor
November 5, 2012
Very nice neighborhood restaurant, great for famiies, comfortable atmosphere, good variety on the menu, great assortment of moderately priced wines, friendly servers.
October 16, 2012
Dishes, services, atmosphere...everything was great. We were lucky to get a nice booth on Friday night. The place was packed.
September 3, 2012
The service was fab!! the food was excellent, and servings were generous. We will be eating at Xenia very frequently now!!
September 2, 2012
Food was tasty and nicely plated. However, the service was exceptional. I don't recall the name of our server, but he is to be commended. Excellent wait staff too. Very friendly atmosphere.
September 1, 2012
I've dined here on a number of occasions and always order the skirt steak as I enjoy it so much.
August 4, 2012
Everything has always been great. Just recently I asked for my meal to go and they left out my baked potatoe and vegetablles. I would still consider the serve good.
August 2, 2012
the people were great
August 2, 2012
For bing one of the first people there for dinner time, took a while for food to arrive
July 17, 2012
Friendly service and good food. We are a family with three boys. The portions were plentiful and tasty.
July 11, 2012
Our waiter was terrific. The fish was moist and the steak perfectly cooked. The waiter, also the bartender, made a mean martini! Casual, relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff. Our new favorite place!
July 2, 2012
Food and ambience were good. The waiter was a nice guy but was not very well informed. He didn't know the house wine, the soup of the day, and he wasn't very familiar with the menu items.
June 24, 2012
Will likely come back as the food was good, environment nice, and service was polite and helpful.
June 22, 2012
We usually dine early; there seems to be only one server early in the eveing; she is so busy that the service is not that great!
May 25, 2012
Food and service were great,Very clean.
May 20, 2012
This is a wonderful neighberhood restaurant and we have always loved it. They have expanded their menu and we loved everything that we had.
May 14, 2012
We ordered a caesar salad that was one of the worst - dressing had no taste, lettuce watery, powdered parmesan cheese. Also, the risotto was terrible- it used to be "okay" but has definitely declined. Tasted like heavy cream was dumped into it. Someone needs to taste these. Everything else was great.
May 12, 2012
My first visit was excellent in every respect. I visited Friday p.m. with guests and the service was not up to par; however, the food was excellent as usual.
May 6, 2012
Great casual restaurant with consistantly good food!
April 17, 2012
Host was not very friendly or welcoming. Neither was the waiter, but he did fine otherwise. disappointed no soda refill for the kids. food was very good.
April 13, 2012
Very pleased

Thank you for helping me with my Gluten free diet

Excellent service, superior quality and presentation of food. Fairly priced. We will definitely return. Peter Swidzinski
March 3, 2012
The food was delicious! We have no complaints whatsoever.
March 3, 2012
Biggest objection? Overwhelming noise!! Might go back for lunch, but never again dinner. A real deal breaker. BTW, we're locals.
February 16, 2012
The ribeye was over cooked from med rare to med well and had no flavor because of it. I paid 26 for an overcooked piece of meat. I like restaurants that take pride in every order that goes out.
February 13, 2012
I'm going to go back again because I havea coupon but everything tasted like it was frozen and I had to wait forever for my waitress before I could sample wines to buy a bottle.
January 25, 2012
Server extremely friendly. Food was very good, will be back as I live down the block. GREAT JOB!!
January 21, 2012
loved Xenia. acoustics make it hard to hear when it's busy. music would be nice.
January 7, 2012
Great menu variety, reasonable pricing on entrees and wines, and a comfortable atmosphere. This is the perfect restaurant for families that want a step up in food quality and environment versus chain restaurants.
January 7, 2012
the food was just ok not great.
January 3, 2012
Your ribeye was tough, tasted like the grill wasn't clean, and/or had a weight pressed on it. Would NOT order that again. My butddy had the skirt/flank steak and said the same thing.
December 20, 2011
Recommend they brighten up the restaurant, perhaps use white tablecloths.
December 9, 2011
We thought our shrimp starter was very tasty and the Salmon special was very good. Moist and the Saffron Sauce was very good.
December 7, 2011
thought it was expensive. will only go back with a coupon from restaurant.com
November 28, 2011
We had a great experience! Our server didn't rush us. My husband gave her an extra $20 to thank her! We hadn't seen our friends in 3 years so we talked for hours, NO one kicked us out even after they closed! They just kept cleaning up and let us decide when we were ready to leave. I"m spreading the word about this great restaurant! Thanks!
November 18, 2011
Comfortable restaurant and bar area. Good service. Good food.
November 1, 2011

Josh the manager is the best!

Every time we eat at Xenias it is a great evening. Service and the food is excellent. The pork chop is awesome! Thanks.
September 29, 2011
we live in the area
September 14, 2011
Tonight was our best experience at Xenia. We have had some poor meals and bad service in the past. Keep up the good work. We live in Alamo and normally go elsewhere. I think we will be coming in more often.
September 3, 2011
My first time there and I was happy with the experiance. I drove pass many time but I thought to try it with restaurant.com.
August 23, 2011
Xenia is a neighborhood restaurant that I frequent often because of the food and service.
August 12, 2011
I live in Alamo and Xenia Bistro is close in proximity and the food and service are very good.
August 8, 2011
Sebastian was our server and we enjoyed his sense of humor and personality as well as the good service.
August 7, 2011
The service was outstanding!!!
July 23, 2011
Love to support our local Alamo businesses. Live music on Friday/Saturday nights would be wonderful -- something light and easy listening that isn't too loud! Best to Jigi.
July 21, 2011
Waiter was very attentive but food came out wrong on four of our orders. I saw him write down our requests (no cheese on hamburgers, etc.) but they came out wrong anyway. Burgers were over cooked.
July 20, 2011
Great time. Will be back.
July 20, 2011
It's a very good neighborhood restaurant, and the plus of now dining there with certificates, makes it all the better.
