The Slanted Door San Ramon

James Beard Award-winning Vietnamese cuisine landed in San Ramon when The Slanted Door opened at City Center Bishop Ranch in 2019. Chef Charles Phan's modern approach to Vietnamese food shines in signature dishes like shaking beef and spring rolls with peanut sauce, all prepared with locally sourced ingredients in the open kitchen.

The 7,500 square foot glass-walled space fills with natural light during lunch service and transforms into something more intimate come evening. Closed Mondays, which gives the kitchen team time to prep their scratch-made approach that's made this San Francisco export a neighborhood fixture.
