August Milestone Employee-Owner Anniversaries!

August saw the celebration of THREE employee-owner milestones for a combined total of 50 years of Zachary’s experience!

Antonio (pictured with some of his favorite art) and Frank celebrated 15 years with us this month! Both joined the team in 2006 when we opened in San Ramon. You can now find Antonio lending his expertise to the dining room crew at our new Pleasanton location. Frank is our fearless leader (see: general manager) of Zachary’s in Pleasant Hill! We celebrated Antonio on 8/14 and Frank on 8/29.

Chodon became a part of the Zachary’s family in 2001 when she was hired at Zachary’s on Solano Ave. Those who are regulars of our Berkeley location may recognize Chodon from our kitchen crew and seen her hard at work making yummy pizzas. We celebrated her in all her glory on 8/21.

There aren’t enough words in the dictionary to express how thankful and appreciative we are of these three and all they do. They are amazing, wonderful, awesome, great, and holy smokes are we lucky to know them.

Congrats Chodon, Antonio, and Frank on your milestones! WE LOVE YOU! ❤

Pleasanton Grand Opening

It’s here, it’s here, it’s here! The Grand Opening for our newest Zachary’s in Downtown Pleasanton!   Friday, September 10th is the official Grand Opening for our Pleasanton location! 

Sunday, July 25th Last Day of Service at Zachary’s San Ramon

Fifteen years ago, we opened our third location in San Ramon. We felt so warmly welcomed, and it was an amazing and exciting time as we found our feet and began serving in our new community.

Sunday, July 25th was our last day of service there before we began our relocation to Downtown Pleasanton. It is such a bittersweet time for us, but one also filled with joy, excitement, and gratitude to our San Ramon community who we hope to see down the road in Pleasanton!

*We do not have an official opening date for Pleasanton at this time. We will be focusing on the move, setting up, and getting settled with our crew in our new location.

A cozy restaurant interior featuring wooden tables and chairs, a display of colorful artwork on the walls, and a small merchandise section with t-shirts. Soft lighting and an open seating area create a warm atmosphere.

After 15 wonderful years, Zachary’s San Ramon will soon be relocating to Downtown Pleasanton, as we were unable to reach agreeable terms on a lease renewal with property ownership. We want to sincerely thank the San Ramon community for their continued support since we opened in 2006.

We expect the next few weeks in San Ramon to be filled with bittersweet reminisces of all the special moments and memories we have made and shared together. San Ramon does, and always will, hold a special place in our hearts. We look forward to serving our valued customers in the upcoming weeks and connecting with all of you. Many of you are not only customers, but dear friends.

We are excited to be joining the vibrant Downtown Pleasanton community and we hope to see our San Ramon friends there! We hope to begin service near the end of July or beginning of August. You can expect to see the familiar faces you have come to know from San Ramon at Zachary’s Pleasanton, and be welcomed as warmly and happily as you have all these years at our San Ramon location.

Please check back for updated information in the weeks to come.

Closed on the 4th of July

We will be closed on the 4th of July to celebrate with family and friends. Planning to have a pizza party of the 4th?
