Top 15 Affordable Restaurants in Fairfield, CA

Reese Paras Family and I live out of the area however SAFFRON is by far worth the drive! Not only do they have amazing food! Our server Sarb recommended new yummy dishes which will be on our list of favorites! Beautiful ambiance and great staff! Thank you! Thank you!

Shawn Crisp I ordered the Pot Stickers, Basil Chicken, and Combination Fried Rice. Potstickers had a nice browned bottom, though a few felt a little doughy. They were still good and Id recommend them. I have never had Basil Chicken, but other reviewers suggested this dish, and its an excellent choice. Very flavorful. The combination fried rice was good, but the Basil chicken is where its at. Ended the meal with the vanilla ice cream. Very nice restaurant and staff. Highly recommend.

Guide Albert I stopped by hungry for Fish and Chips.. I was promptly greeted and made to feel appreciated. There are so many options for fish and chicken options at this location. The food was delicious and very generous portions. This is a solid stop for Fish and Chips.

Major LaTrisha (The Major Brand) Looked up somewhere to eat for dinner when we got to Napa and this place popped up so we decided to try it. It did not disappoint. The food and service was so good that we went back the next day for lunch on our way to our resort. The Crispy Brussel Sprouts were flavorful and delicious. I also had the Grilled Ribeye Steak that was cooked to perfection and seasoned just right. The chimichurri sauce was the best I have ever had. The next day for lunch I had the Fish Sandwich. It was fried just right and was so good. The fries were crispy coated and delicious. The highlight of both my meals was the Sangria. It was fruity and not overly sweet. It was amazing! I will definitely go back when I am in Napa again next year. Just an overall great experience both visits.

Jonathan Su We came to have late lunch on a Saturday afternoon. We were in the area and were hungry, so I did a quick search for restaurants nearby on Yelp and Mary Korean Bistro popped up. They are one of the newer restaurants in Fairfield. The restaurant was not busy, so we were seated right away. There was a nice ambiance, kind of a trendy contemporary feel. They give you a physical menu or you can scroll through the tablet at each table where you can order your food or the server can physically take your order. Like most Korean restaurants, once you order, they bring out a number of banchan (side dishes) to get you eating right away. Food (5/5 stars): big portion, great plating/presentation. - BBQ Special Spicy Pork: came out on a sizzling plate. Great flavor and not too spicy. - Bulgogi Bibimbap: good flavors, not too sweet or salty. Nice presentation. You can opt to have it in a sizzling hot stone bowl for $2, but we opt for just the regular bowl. - Spicy Seafood Bibimbap: great flavors, not too spicy. Can opt for the sizzling hot stone bowl as well. -Korean Fried Chicken - Honey Butter flavor: the chicken is boneless which is not my favorite as I like bone-in chicken so it is less dry and more flavorful/juicy. The honey butter flavor was not too strong to me, but tasted good overall. They did a good job with the crispiness of the batter. - Banchan: typical Banchan dishes at most Korean restaurants. The initial portion is pretty small in case you don’t like them. Once you ask for refills of your favorite ones or all the dishes, they increase the portions. Service (5/5 stars): server was very attentive and helpful. The prices are little high for lunch (not sure if they have a cheaper lunch menu on the weekdays), but portion size is big, so most people will have something to take home, especially if you fill up on the banchan. If you have leftovers to take home, they package them for you in the kitchen in a microwaveable plastic box with the top sealed in plastic wrap which is very nice to prevent spillage and no smells in your car. We had a great experience here and look forward to coming back again soon. Update (11/14/2025): Another great meal at Maru! I came in on a Friday to meet a friend for lunch. Service was quick, food was excellent. The 2 servers that helped us were very attentive. They came by to check on us and asked about banchan refills frequently. The decor is modern and clean which makes for a pleasant dinning experience. Currently, this is my go to place for Korean Food.

Jason DNA Decided to give this place a try and glad we did. The lady behind the counter is very friendly. Food is amazing! Rice is cooked to perfection. Chicken is very flavor full. You can tell the marinade they use is very good. The sauce is not over done. The pickles give a very refreshing balance. Definitely will be coming back!

StarCare Power Wash, Inc. Had a great time watching the Warriors whoop the Spurs the other day! Main reason why I wanted to take the time to leave a review is because the manager went above and beyond to make sure we could watch the game. It wasn’t on the big screens so he logged on to his own Amazon just so we could watch our game! Appreciate it very much!! Great food also! They have an updated menu and it’s on point.

Marina Wagner Being our first time there we were extremely pleased with everything; service, food, atmosphere. I got the prime rib which was cooked to perfection, just like I ordered, med rare. The loaded sweet potato was yummy, highly suggest. The deep fried cactus blossom was the bomb. Hubby got a rack of ribs which were a little dry. A person came out to welcome us since it was our first time there and gave us a little welcome gift, which was very nice. I let her know the ribs were a little dry just offering feedback, not really trying to get anything out of it especially since we were done eating, and she offered a replacement free rack of ribs to take home. Thats great customer service. We will definitely come back. The app is user friendly and love they have a pickup window outside. I only wish we had a Texas Roadhouse closer to us. Prices are more reasonable and food was excellent.

Solano Lunch dine in first time here. Oh dear lord,...just the corn tortillas alone were amazing. I never eat restaurant tortillas but not these! I had the Mole plate with chicken and it was perfect. Not bitter or too sweet,...just right and very generous portion! I am totally coming here for Mex food from now on. I cannot believe how so much better it is than say Chipotle or other regular Mex places. It is 10xbetter!!

McAnally Brandon “BMAC” This is it! This is the place youre looking for. Its like taking a mini-vacation to the Mediterranean. The aroma alone is enough to know youre about to get into something good! The warm ambiance and friendly staff was a bonus. The gyro meat was perfectly cooked, offering a tender and flavorful taste. The spices were well-balanced, and the tzatziki sauce was rich and creamy. The hummus was great and the pita is exactly what you want from pita. The fresh cucumber salad was spot-on and really rounded out the dish. The rice portion was slightly large, but this is a minor detail. The baklava was excellent. The attention to detail was evident. Its probably one of the best I ever had. Ill eat here everytime Im in the area!

Abraham Abundis This place gives free drinks thats probably the most unique thing this buffet offers. The restrooms and floors were clean. They had a wide selection of sea food and chicken items but lacked beef items. My favorite item overall was the shrimp shu mai.

Shannon Brown Dont know of a single other place you can still get a beer for less than $5 so already top notch. The food is great, quick service, love the eclectic decor & music!

Bethany Passick The food was fresh, incredibly flavorful, and you get a great size portion for the money. The service was great and we didn’t wait long for our freshly prepared food. That chicken was the best I’ve had. Tender and tasty. Hubby loved his beef and lamb. Fresh tomatoes and cucumber salad, tobouli had a great flavor. We even got a few things to take home. By far the best hummus I’ve eaten. We will definitely be back!

Chris Sinatra When it comes to brisket im pretty picky having been stationed in texas for 5 years. But these guys nailed it! Extremely flavorful and juicy with that perfect smoke ring. Also had the chicken breast with it. Amazing! Great customer service also. These two gentlemen were super chill and down to earth.

Jare Live We always love us some Frymazing! Ben a fan since they were in Vallejo on Tennessee. They are always very welcoming. The food is always consistently cooked and never disappoints. The honey butter wings is our go to with a side of garlic fries! We also enjoy the bulgogi rice bowl. Super super good and recommend them to everyone!
