Yankee Pier now open in Lafayette
(Yankee Pier)
East Bay's first Yankee Pier restaurant opened on Saturday, January 19th, in the Lafayette Mercantile project. Check here for restaurant details.

LarkCreek® Steak now open
(LarkCreek® Steak)
LarkCreek® Steak opened on September 28, 2006 at the new Westfield® San Francisco Centre. You may have heard of this development at Fifth and Market Streets in downtown San Francisco. It will host the new Bloomingdales, and it is the largest retail development in construction in California. Suffice it to say we are excited about the location. We're located on the fourth floor, but we are sure you will find us easily (all roads lead there—it is the only place that Nordstrom and Bloomies connect—plus it offers a terrific best view of the historic Emporium Dome).

As for the restaurant, our design team, led by Mark Stevens of Architect & Light, has created a really stylish but comfortable environment and the menu is going to combine the best of two worlds: great steaks, seafood and chops (like a steak house) and the seasonal, farm fresh American fare (we hope) you’ve come to expect from all of our restaurants. Add 250 all-American wines, personable service and some extra surprises and we’re sure it adds up to something special.
