Restaurants in Burlingame

“Super friendly staff. This is me and my dates go to spot. We order food and hookah.

This is definitely a place u take ur date to.

If u have a girls night out, this is the place. Many times we been there, there's been those.

The staff is very patient knowledgeable. "Patient" is very important bcuz many of us aren't familiar with the food or culture. But there hasn't been any problems with anyone or food or hookah.

My date always asks to go here and I never turn her down.

Also, their hookah is decently priced. The same as other places i go to, to hookah.

If I come alone, my date considers it "cheating." ?

Food is decently priced. We were surprised but glad. I'm also glad it's a one stop spot. As in, we don't have to go to another place to eat then come to hookah.”

“extremely bad tasting food and bizzare combinations....miffed at kichadi like biryani with no flavour and being served with aam ka achar....god knows how this restaurant got Michelin star rating ....Shame on the chefs and the owners for ripping off the customers with overpricing of the food for poor service, absence of any ambience or decor”

“Jason Revel's library of wine is vast, with something for everyone, and constantly being updated. What I love is that I always learn something new about the wine I'm drinking. The staff are personable and professional; the bar is a chill and fun hangout.”

“The taste is very good and the ingredients are very fresh. I recommend the lobster and seafood bisque, which tastes great.”

“The food was excellent, the atmosphere is casual with lots of seating and nice decor. I got the mixed Gyro plate with chicken and beef. The meat is flavorful and the salad is fresh. Comes with fresh pita, hummus and paprika sauce, with hot sauce at the table. The servers gave us a free slice of baklava drenched in honey and pistachios, and hot tea. Would eat here again!”

“Delicious food, super friendly service. A little slower than a typical restaurant, but that’s because everything is made to order and not sitting around in a pan waiting to be served. The food was amazing, and so pretty!”

“A really wonderful, romantic oasis in downtown Burlingame. All the food we ordered here was delicious. The Italian sausage lasagna was my highlight. The pomegranate and arugula salad was also wonderful. The Bolognese lasagna was solid but not as standout. The complimentary focaccia bread at the beginning was just so-so.

The staff and service are extraordinarily welcoming and friendly. I'd highly recommend a visit!”

“great service from the staff , good food , good ambience”

“This is a hole in the wall gem!

Super cozy small shop ran by a local couple. The prices are super cheap and the Chai is delicious! I think it's a house blend. It's a bit sweet but the spices are on point! Highly recommend. 10/10”

“Great coffee, friendly service, good for plane spotting!”

“First time here. Really enjoyed the food and atmosphere.”

“Dined solo for work trip.

Decor was cute, BUT the window was open because it was super warm and there were a bunch of mosquitos. Made the dinner not so comfortable.

Server was not attentive, so no bad oe good review there.

Food: was eh. My falafel tasted a bit like burnt oil for my taste. BREAD was soo delicious because it was warm. Hummus was decent. Had to order a sidw of rice and it was the best thing I ate. The lemonade was fresh squeezed but toooo sweet.”

“Rocca delivered the perfect romantic dinner for two in a half-round booth. From the divine Gnocchi with Pesto Cream to the generous Ravioli Bolognese, every bite was a delight. And let's not forget the indulgent Chocolate Mousse for dessert. Impeccable service, a cocktail menu to suit both our tastes, and an atmosphere that set the scene for a memorable evening.”

“Wonderful “white table cloth” bistro experience.”

“Family operated business establishments are always the best!! Food is superb!! Price is competitive!”

“Plucky’s is such a great addition to Broadway! By far the best coffee in this side of Burlingame. Food is great. Board games are super fun. They charge for the grown up games, but they have plenty of free game that can entertain kids.”

“Everything i ordered (mansaf, veggie plate, chick shawerma, dolma, tabbouleh) was ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. And the aish elsraya was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. I’m going back for more. Great service, too.”

“Came here yesterday for iftar to break our fast, they gave us some dates to start with water, and made sure our food would be ready at iftar time. They are family owned, friendly people and delicious red lentil soup.

Would come again :)

Vegetarian options: Red lentil soup (shorba)”

“This is seriously some of the best breakfast and lunch food my family and I have ever had. If you can’t tell by the name we are from Cleveland, OH and this place beats out all of our breakfast spots with ease. I would HIGHLY recommend coming here. When we came it was on a Sunday morning right at their “busiest” time and still there was plenty of room and never felt too crowded. Also the pancakes are as big as my head.”

“I love supporting small businesses and this place is the Best! I love their Lavazza cappuccino and pastries especially the cannolis! Got to try the vegetariana sandwich today and it was the best vegetarian sandwich I’ve had! Super cute spot and very kind people!”

“Its a small restaurant with very welcoming and kind staff, food was excellent with good balance of spices, the rice was perfectly cooked, naan’s crispy and chewy, and the staff was very helpful and attentive. Great dining experience!”

“Yan gon is a family own Burmese restaurant on broadway Burlingame. The owner and the entire staff were extremely friendly , attentive , courteous . helpful, and welcoming . Their dishes are delicious . I have tried their Burmese Style Curry Lamb , Singapore Street noodles, Deep fried Chicken Wings , and Wor Wonton Soup. All four dishes were delicious, but my favorite is the won ton soup . This soup is perfect , it's so healthy and brothy. The broth is so rich that left a long lasting mouthwatering and coating sensation lingering in my tongue. The wontons are so tasty , juicy , and flavorful with the right amount of , I believe was pork , ginger , garlic ,chopped onions , sugar, salt , pepper , and shrimps . . The shrimps were very tastey and fresh . It didn't have that strange scent of ammonia or fishy smell like spoiled shrimps . The restaurant is simple , bright , clean , casual ambience with ample seatings. I have been here many times and got seated right away. No wait . This restaurant is a must try if you have the craving for Burmese food or just want to try something new.”

“I had to stop by Royal Donut Cafe because of all of the great reviews I saw on Yelp! And I must say that I wasn't disappointed at all! The staff was awesome! From the cashier, to the cooks, and the server. And I even got a chance to meet the owner, Terri, who has taken over the business for the past 15 years! Definitely going to be a regular here! I ordered the vegetarian omelet! 😋”

“I love have a vegan fine dining option on the peninsula. The restaurant itself is beautiful and the food is delicious. The bar bites and drinks are also yummy and the bakery treats have not disappointed.”

“I had breakfast with my girlfriends. The food was delicious, the place was a bit cramped, and there were a lot of people. But I give the food and coffee five stars.”

“Fast friendly service and excellent food. It’s and enjoyable experience each time.”

“Great tea, and great English tea and sandwiches. Best tea blends I’ve encountered outside China and amazing nibbles especially the chocolate chip cookies All my tea I brew at home comes from here highly recommended”

“BG is a gorgeous restaurant, with well prepared food, and live music/jazz, most days of the week. Owners are very personable and hands-on, which is rare, amongst restaurants. Great place for special occasions or just a night out with your favorite person/people. Share a great experience, without a shocking price tag!”

“This is my and my husband’s favorite sushi restaurant! This is a must-visit restaurant when friends or family visit. This is a restaurant recognized by everyone! It's a little pricey (but not terribly expensive), but it's really worth it⭐️⭐️⭐️ I really recommend this place! In particular, salmon belly and eel sushi melt as soon as you put them in your mouth. Be sure to order it haha. The place itself is small, but the sushi quality is so good that we go often haha.

This is my go-to sushi place in the bay area! I really recommend this place because once you put the sushi into your mouth.. it melts. Especially I recommend unagi(eel) sushi and salmon belly sushi! The price is a little bit high, but reasonable price - because it is definitely worth it. Also all the employees are so kind and nice here :)”

“Italian fire wood chicken and margarita pizza”

“Good food and fast service!”

“Looking for something different after our cruise. Centro definitely hit the spot!! Everything was delicious. Great atmosphere and awesome playlist!”

“Food was good but the service could’ve been better. Maybe it’s the vibe during the day and at night they’re probably quick to turn the tables. Highly recommend for a casual lunch with family and friends.”

“Was here on a Friday night for dinner - there was a wait even with a reservation but the staff was nice enough the people in line free wine and a seat at the bar. We were seated shortly after and went with the ribs and paella - both were good and portion was hearty. Food took a while to be prepared. Busy and tables were pretty close to each other. Would consider returning.”

“We have been here 3 times, both prior times were much better than this last time. The food was not nearly as good, I'm wondering if the head chef is different. Still very good, just a little off from the first two times.”

“All is good Food and Service”

“Food was great. Service was excellent even the restaurant was packed at height of dinner. Great food!”

“Incredible choice of pastries! Wow! First time visit did not disappoint 😊”

“The food was delicious. We felt rushed by the wait staff, they actually cleared our water glasses and coffee mugs before we were ready to leave. The atmosphere is on the loud side, making conversation challenging.”

“Excellent food and service and atmosphere”

“Great food and service was excellent. I would go back there again”

“Great service, delicious food.”

“Wonderful service, DELICIOUS food and the best views! I was so glad my company put me in the area. I had the exotic cocktail (which was one of the best drinks I’ve had in a while), The calamari which they also put fried artichoke in it *chefs kiss* and those sauces!!! My goodness the SAUCES separate or together my taste buds were very happy. Last but never least the lobster bisque…. I about picked up the bowl and licked it clean…. Perfectly seasoned, buttery, creamy, mmm mmm mmm!! I can’t wait to come back…after your meal you can walk it off with the 360 views of just beautiful scenery”

“Great price for a yummy treat!! Try them all!!!!”

“Banging delicious! My new lunch spot may have to grab and go a couple times, but I'll definitely be back multiple times. Thanks for a great meal deliciously hot and tasty. How did I know this place was here? Oh my God ?✌?”

“In the heart ♥️ of the beautiful downtown of Culver City Salt & Straw Is there waiting for you to go and taste they’re vegan ice cream 🍦 with fresh waffle cones 😋yummy . The place is nice,clean ,friendly staff and you get one hour free parking”

“Great place. Long lines and worth it”

“My favorite boba spot. I like the matcha freeze and I add boba. The mochi version is good too. I’d recommend without the red bean for my taste. Their other styles of milk tea are great too.”

“Came for the camarones a la diabla (“Devil’s Shrimp”), which they don’t have on the menu but are happy to make it for you. I actually enjoy theirs more than El Farolito! Also HIGHLY recommend their pastor tacos. Their salsa is top-notch, which I am very picky about. So lucky I live two minutes away!

Parking: Park behind if you can’t find on street.”

“This is a charming ice cream shop on broadway Burlingame. They have a great selection of tasty hand crafted ice creams, yogurts , sorbets, chocolates and candies. It's an ice cream shop that fulfill the most posh of taste. My favorite is the Ube ice cream . Its so luscious , thick and creamy texture with a mellow, subtle nutty, and a hint of vanilla flavor. Location is great. It's on broadway Burlingame next to Walgreens. Meter spots , parking lots , and 2 hrs of free parking available. Cute ambience and the entire staff is attentive and welcoming.”

“Place is so clean. Ordering made easy on big screen with choices clearly priced and labeled. I made my choices and the drink I got was pure heaven! A party in my mouth! It was worth every penny.?”

“Hands down the best bakery in Mountain View area”

“The restaurant is located inside a plaza and there are a lot of parking spaces. We arrived there right after 6:00pm, and there were a few people waiting inside. After I put my name on the waitlist, we were able to get our table very quickly. We ordered the Sliced Beef & Ox Tripe in Chili Oil, Cucumber Salad, Chicken & Corn Dumpling in Chili Oil, Napa Cabbage & Pork Potstickers, Pork Xiao Long Bao, and Iced Assam Milk Tea. They served the food pretty quickly and all the staff were friendly. Those dumplings were freshly made by the chef because you could see the back with an open kitchen and watch them making all the dumplings. Dumplings and Xiao Long Bao tasted pretty good except the sliced beef and ox tripe and the drink was just ok. Highly recommended for the dumplings and Xiao Long Bao :)”

“Amazing poke’ ! Incredible service! Awesome owners! Cool Asian sparkling water flavors! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Quality vendors, very friendly community shoppers, nice place to be on a Sunday morning!!!”

“A very nice and clean coffee shop in a beautiful area. The whole area is quietness. The place is very close to a trail, beach, and walk-side sea.

I got a cortado, which was definitely good. I could taste a strong and balanced coffee. Also, I got a gluten free waffle (Honey Butter), which was light and delicious.

This place gets an easy 5 stars. The place seems to be popular, where there is usually a 15-minute wait time.”

“A good selection of white, black and contemporary. I ordered their popular Pistachio Einspanner and their traditional Rocky’s Matcha. I also ordered their Dubai chocolate and chocolate chip walnut cookie.”

“Found this location while staying nearby at the Westin. Unsuspecting and a bit hidden. However, the food was excellent, owners were kind / helpful, and the atmosphere was pleasant. For a quick dinner, I would certainly come back if in the area.”

“Wow, what a great find! Super delicious healthy groovy food. Everything we had was delicious! And the people running and cooking for the place are so sweet. We’ll definitely be back!”

“It was fun going during the soft opening of Palmetto Superfoods in Burlingame (there are other locations in the Metreon, on Union Street, and on Clement Street in San Francisco, with another planned for Santana Row). I learned a lot by speaking with the super friendly and deservedly-proud owner. This location in Burlingame is a really cool little spot diagonally across from Safeway and has a sweet public rooftop sitting area. And I love that everything is plant-based except the honey and bee pollen, but they have a vegan apple honey — which is absolutely delicious — as a superior substitute. Anyway, with a choice of bowls (and smoothies), one could choose a set one on the menu or customize everything with unlimited bases and toppings — as long as it fits in whatever size bowl you choose (yup, I totally went large). I opted for the Bay Blend, but swapped out the strawberries (not really my thing) for toasted coconut flakes (most definitely my thing). The bowl was quickly layered by the friendly employee, who looked like she was excited for her next opportunity to surf, at least in my imagination. From the açaí, pitaya/dragonfruit, and chia pudding on the bottom to the banana and almond butter in the middle to the granola, blueberries, and toasted coconut, etc. on top, it was scrumptious and satisfying. Wanting to try a little more deliciousness, I decided to take a Midnight Beach smoothie to go. Now that I’m gone, I know I’ll be back!”

“The best ice cream ever <3.I love all the favorites.”

“Best coffee in San Carlos... by a considerable distance.”

“Location always clean, staff very friendly and have been working for quite some time. Enjoyed my sandwich”

“The fact that it is all gluten free is amazing. I haven’t been able to have a bahn mi since I found out I have celiac. I ordered one today and it was so good. The customer service was great. I love this place and definitely recommend! I will be back to try more of their menu items”

“First time here. Love the place awesome coffee..gingersnap and pastries. Very friendly staff.”

“Simply the best service all around. Thank you Stephanie and Carol for making the order possible. You girls and your team were life savers. We called to place a catering order and they were so efficient and nice. Will definitely recommend”

“Really nice Irish pub. Family owned with plenty of Irish staff. Authentic atmosphere and a great pint of Guinness. No plastic paddies here!Cash only, but there is an ATM on the premises.”

“Went with a couple of friends during Halloween, and we had a great time. Drinks are pretty good, and prices are very reasonable. The staff was very friendly and accommodated friendly in a wheelchair. Very impressed with the place.”

“Awesome and fresh ! Defo worth going there for food and check it out your selves, it will be worth it!”

“es algo bueno que hayan puesto este bakery, algo de nuestra tierra por que yo soy de ahi.❤️”

“I came in for a quick lunch while I was waiting and nearby. It really exceeded my expectations. I got a slice of sausage and pepperoni with a drink, which was cheap and exactly what I wanted. I'm not sure I would say it is the best quick slice I've had in the bay area, but it is the best from a chain. Service was super fast and friendly, my food was ready pretty much once I filled my drink. It was one of the coke touchscreen selector machines, so I got something I never find. There were a great selection of different pizza toppings to use, pretty much anything I would want, and some I wouldn't think of.
My only real issue was the atmosphere. I liked the decor, but it felt like it was designed for the kind of dining I was there for. It just felt a little seedy, I didn't want to linger after eating. I've been to worse, especially for this general category of place, but it felt like they were shooting a bit above that.
All and all, I'll be back. It will be on my radar for the future.”

“Amazing staff, sandwiches, and specials. Christine runs it and she's a great person. You'll love Yay!”

“Tpumps is always quick, and offers a large amount of taster tea that is appreciated during the line. Unfortunately there isn’t any sit down area, but their prices make up for it - esp on Tpumps Tuesday where you get a free upgrade. My favorite drink is the green tea - peach rose lemon w honey boba and light ice and sweetness

Without light sweet the drink could be too sugary since the boba is honey boba which adds to the sugar content”

“Ordered for take-out with my coworkers. We all loved it!
Will definitely come back for more and recommend to friends! ❤️

Parking: Plenty of free parking.”

“Not only are the cookies spectacular but Lizzy made an amazing chocolate cake for my wife’s birthday.”

“We door dashed to a local hotel, rec'd wrong pizza. I contact them, they fixed the mistake. I would use them again.”

“Sweetness for Match latte is perfect. Love it.”

“Rocio and alllll the women working here are amazing and know what they're doing. Great at updating you if they're out of anything. They also do an amazing g job at remembering your routine order next time around or giving suggestions you may be open to.”

“Amazing sandwiches 🥪 & salads 🥗”

“The best mediterranean food that me and my wife ever have eaten. Excellent service of all the staff. Clean place and appropriate background music as special touch.”

“Always fresh and fantastic! The guys who work there are always friendly and nice, as well!”

“Location always clean, staff very friendly and have been working for quite some time. Enjoyed my sandwich”

“Best coffee in San Carlos... by a considerable distance.”

“We came here after visiting Washington Park with 6 people on a Sunday afternoon. It was hot and we wanted something small and quick to eat and drink while the niners game was on. We originally wanted to sit at the bar but since we had a larger group we opted to sit at a table. We got a round of shots and a Prickly Pear Margarita that was really good. We got the signature French fries flight (truffle, rosemary garlic, bbq) served with herb ranch, chipotle mayo, and ketchup. We also got the Chicken Wing flight (Buffalo, salt n pepper, honey habanero) that came with 9 total wings. And we got a chicken fettuccine Alfredo. It was a good little snack for all of us, service was great. There was air conditioning, but there was a quick black out during the game but it came on pretty quickly! There’s street parking and some lots nearby.”

“Great place. Long lines and worth it”

“Hands down the best bakery in Mountain View area”

“TLDR: great food and beautiful location but pricey for dim sum

We really enjoyed all the food, the shrimp dumpling, siu mai, and other assorted dim sum were very enjoyable. The skin on the har gow was just right without being too sticky, the chicken feet were tender and not too spicy. The service was good and the view is pretty but the price is very expensive, $7.10 for a small dish with most dishes being medium at $8.10 for four pieces is a bit high.”

“Great food and service was excellent. I would go back there again”

“Its a small restaurant with very welcoming and kind staff, food was excellent with good balance of spices, the rice was perfectly cooked, naan’s crispy and chewy, and the staff was very helpful and attentive. Great dining experience!”

“Nice place”

“Excellent food and service and atmosphere”

“This has become my go to place. They are always consistent with taste of food and their staff's service. I am always greeted with smile and food is delicious. Fairly priced, good portion.
I love the ginger lemonade and the burmese noodles.”
