In 2015, fine dining doesn’t have to be a pleasure reserved for those with deep pockets. Trestle offers a budget-friendly prix-fixe menu complemented by a wine list that won’t break the bank. You won’t have to sacrifice thoughtfully conceived, immaculately executed menu choices or excellent wines to save a little green at dinnertime, though. Trestle’s kitchen offers elevated comfort foods like calamari with smoked fingerling potatoes, sausage-stuffed quail and fuyu persimmon cake. Wines are offered at a much lower markup than you’ll experience at many Bay Area restaurants. The icing on the cake? Trestle’s front-of-house staff provides impeccable, Michelin-worthy service to ensure a world-class dining experience every time.
