Zio Fraedo's Vallejo and a Massage

Today's post is over the Fourth of July Weekend. After a quick jaunt to the gym this morning, I noticed the freeways were packed. There were several fender benders which influenced my decision to stay close to home, catch up on some chores, dine locally and get a massage at my favorite acupressure place in American Canyon.

I decided on trying Zio Fraedo's is located at 23 Harbor Way Vallejo, CA 94590. It's a pretty little restaurant that sits on the waterfront just kitty corner of Mare Island. The staff is friendly, courteous and efficient. For a busy weekend, it was a great alternative in contrast to the crowds in our sister cities Oakland & San Francisco. The Italian Menu is a little more on the high end.

I ordered the Tomato Basil Soup and a Penne Bolognese. The food is adequate. However, the comfortable atmosphere and the view of the marina makes up for the lack of gourmet.

Zio Fraedo's has a bar, and banquet area for events.

The service is fast, the wait staff is efficient.

After dinner, I got a well needed massage in American Canyon at E-Acupressure. We have long visited Eva the proprietor for many years. She is always nice and always professional. Her prices are amazing. My preference is the medium pressure, though the therapists will do hard if you ask.

Acupressure massage spots are abundant in our area. Usually, you can just walk in. Eva has built her reputation. Appointment is preferred. E-Acupressure is located at 100 American Canyon Road, American Canyon, CA. 94503 707-310-0798
