Chianti ReserveWith over 30 years of experience in Italy and in the Bay Area, Chianti Reserve management brings their expertise and knowledge of Italian cuisine to downtown Pleasanton!
Our head chef and co-owner, Bilarddi Carteli, was trained in Italy (Bologna and Tuscany) as well as in California. Bilarddi worked as a chef throughout Italy as well as in the United States.
He follows the methodology of Professor Pellegrino Artusi, known as the food god of Italy, believing it’s not the recipe that makes a meal delicious; but, the imagination that combines the ingredients.
New for 2024, we opened our new private Upstairs Banquet Room. Discover the endless event opportunities in our exclusive Banquet Room with balcony seating and a full bar. Complete with an ADA compliant elevator to ensure everyone can be a part of memorable gatherings. We offer a diverse menu that can be customized for you including wine pairing.

Our Head Server, Michael Angelo, was professionally trained in Italy and has over 25 years of restaurant and wine pairing experience.
Many of the kitchen staff have been a part of Chef Carteli’s team for the past 20+ years.
