>The SceneThe weathered bricks and exposed beams give the small dining room a comfortable, lived-in feeling. The tiny kitchen, a fish bowl morphed with a gazebo, sits squarely in the middle of the dining room. 71 Saint Peter is strictly date material. – – The Food71 Saint Peter's prices are very reasonable, portions are big, and the clean, bright tastes of its contemporary Italian cuisine have many advocates. It bills itself as a Mediterranean grill, which shows a surprising lack of self-awareness. Grilled portobello mushrooms, seafood linguine, tomato bruschetta--this is clearly…

Warm and friendly with yummy food.

We are so lucky to have St.Peter among our neighborhood restaraunts. In a sea of mediocre restraunts St.Peter is godsend. The atmosphere is always freindly and the food consistently good. When not overly busy they are happy to create a dish that suits your fancy if you happen to be in the mood for something not on the evenings menu. We love it and dine at St.Peter weekly!

Great Prix Fix/Service
by hillaryam
A rare night away from our young children, m husband and I enjoyed the prix fix menu at 71 St. Peter. The service was excellent and parking was easy (garage across the street). The risotto was great, as was the filet mignon (amazing). We will go back soon.
- Pros: prix fixe menu, service

At the top of its game
by wbeeman
For a while last year, 71 St. Peter seemed to have faded a bit. The menu seemed a bit tired. I am happy to report that we went last night with four out-of-town guests, and were delighted by everything. The restaurant has come roaring back to the top of its game. Three of us ordered their imaginative summer five course tasting menu--every bite a culinary masterpiece, and a tremendous bargain at $32.00 with an equally great bargain of unusual wine pairings for each course at $18.00. The other members of our party had one of the restaurant's signature dishes--grilled duck, with duck confit, which arrived hot, crispy and extraordinarily flavorful. The entire meal was a treat, with superbly attentive service throughout. 71 St. Peter is unquestionably one of the finest restaurants in Northern California, and one of the great culinary bargains anywhere.
- Pros: large, varied wine list; wonderful, imaginative food; great service, and ambiance
- Cons: none. Our experience was delightful
