It's nearly midnight, earlier a group I was with spent close to $100 at Concetta's, and yet I'm having to make myself a snack because I haven't eaten all day. I should explain, I was in a party of four, we were a bit rushed for time as we had a show to go a few doors down at the... More

Honestly, Concetta is the best place in town. It's consistently excellent food, great chef, creative, delicious and food for foodies. Great wine selection and low key, local joint feel. Only criticism: they need to work on the very unwelcoming and cold design of the second dining area...it reminds me of sitting in my doctor's waiting area. But I'd still eat... More

Concetta's would not be out of place in San Francisco or Palo Alto. It serves expertly prepared small plate entrees and sides in the relaxed atmosphere of an intimate restaurant. More

We eat here at least once a month and are never disappointed. Wait staff is wonderful and the food and setting are hard to beat. More

I arrived later in the evening as the restaurant was closing. There were four people ahead of me just walking in the door. Even though the restaurant was closing for the night the owner still let us all in. He spent significant time at both their table and mine in assisting us in making a wine choice and ensuring that...

OK, the atmosphere is a little on the bare minimum side but the tapas make up for it. The only thing that surprised me was that they had a wine list without appellation or vintage listed--especially considering the owner apparently owned a wine shop down the street. Puzzling indeed. More

This is our romantic get away spot. You can leave your cares behind, really relax and enjoy unique and delicious food. I really appreciate the wine selection, you can get great wines by the glass, not the low end most restaurants make you drink if you only want a glass or two. More

The best in town! Good ingredients and nicely prepared with a wine list to complement the food. Can't believe that most TA restaurant reviews for Modesto are chains! This is not. More

We were staying only one night in Modesto, on our way to Sequoia and Yosemite. I hadn't planned a restaurant ahead of time, so I had to resort to the phone book -- not something I would usually do! What a lucky pick. The host made us feel so welcome, gave us a great table, and served us the best... More

My husband and I are regulars at Concetta. We love the interesting combinations of flavors in the food and the everchanging menu. Also, the atmosphere is very laid back and they have some interesting wines by the glass. On the downside, the service can be slow on busy nights. More
