I too would love a Indian restaurant somewhere around the lake - the one in Concord is the closest I know - its a long way to go for dinner.

Would also like a good Mexican one - I've tried Las Pinatas twice and both times found the food pretty bland and uninspiring.

LemonGrass is definitely a good one for Asian - are they still open (I know Mike Love, the owner, died last year)

Wish there was a good small Italian one - Fratello's is OK, but not a place for an intimate meal - its too open for my taste.

And last - wished that restaurants had more than the one "token" vegetarian meal (which tends to be the same at all restaurants - some nondescript pasta concoction). After being a vegetarian for38 years, it gets tiring to always have the same option when going out to dinner with friends who don't want some "ethnic" food place where there are several vegetarian options. Though I should say things are way better than they were 30 years ago, when many restaurants had NOTHING vegetarian and no idea how to get my repeat business.
