"Emanating from the exhibition fireplace grill, the fragrance of Faz’s innovative Mediterranean cuisine permeates the dining room."
Acclaimed by top critics, our hotel restaurant provides a unique dining experience - a driving force on the local culinary scene. Pleasanton’s most intriguing eatery fuses familiar ingredients with innovative preparations in an impressive restaurant and pool terrace setting. Newly Renovated and re-designed, Faz Pleasanton is a full service restaurant and bar featuring the distinctive Mediterranean-style cuisine of Faz Poursohi. The restaurant features exhibition cooking with wood burning ovens, a rotisserie, and a smoker. Faz Poursohi's success as a restaurateur is based on his love of food and cooking that he acquired growing up in Tehran.

Colorful and savory, the menu combines the best of modern Mediterranean and California cuisine, and emphasizes fresh local ingredients.
