Incontro Ristorante, the inspiration for the name came from our desire to create a central meeting place for the diverse cuisines from all the regions of Italy and their passion to introduce these foods from the old country to their new home here in the East Bay.

Incontro is like a portal. Crossing their threshold transports you to a time and place that captures all the best that Italy has to offer.

The Italian kitchen, la cucina italiana, is famous for a magical mix of hospitality, energy, enthusiasm and tradition; that's what you'll find there with a commitment to local, sustainable, seasonal foods of the highest quality.
