“I dined at Alexander's when it was in a different location and remembered it being really good. This time it's not as great as I remembered. Service from Victor was amazing though. The steaks, they were cooked perfectly but underseasoned. We ordered a few appetizers and we didn't care for the short rib or the Jamon iberico with buratta. It was really fun when you get Cotton candy at the end. They're very accommodating especially if you're celebrating something.“

“My friend and I went on Sunday evening for a ladies' day. This place was beautiful; seating inside/outside as well as bar seating. The menu is small but delicious, and the service was fantastic. Although it was busy, the owner came by our table often and gave little complimentary bites off the menu, very knowledgeable and passionate about wine, and made fantastic recommendations. Also, I was kind enough to ask about allergies/food restrictions prior to making recommendations. It was like a piece of Italy there. I highly recommend this place and can't wait to go back.“

“An absolutely exceptional hidden gem that is well worth the discovery! They have a great selection of wines and will help you find something that aligns to what you feel like having. Their food is delicious too! The flat breads are exceptionally thin and tasty! Nici and Ty have found an awesome niche! I am hoping to visit this place again!“

“We tried to visit Goodtime Bar once before, but seating is very very limited, so decided to try again another time when we could get a seat (it's a small space, both inside and outside, and even the standing room is limited - but standing room isn't what I'm looking for in a wine bar).
Last night we made it at a time when we were able to grab the only 2 seats available. The ambiance is great - the setup is very modern, and the music is enjoyable. I was rather disappointed by their Wines by the Glass selection - rather, their lack thereof. Their menu has a single listing for "wines by the glass" with each color listed beneath (bubbles, white, orange, red) and a note to ask what they're pouring tonight. I like this in concept - it suggests a rotating menu. however, the options were limited - for a red, they only had a red blend (no other options for a single glass). I will caveat that with this: the red blend was delightful and I would absolutely get it again (if I knew what it is)! but when I go out to a wine bar, I'm interested in either a flight of different wines, or 2 glasses of 2 different wines (of the same color). so while our intention was to stay for 2 glasses each, we just had the single glass and left.
they do seem to have plenty of Wines by the Bottle options - again, a single listing on the menu pointing you to all the bottles on the wall with their prices written on them in sharpie. so if you're with a bigger group, or planning to stay for the whole evening, I can see Goodtime being a good time for you!
our service was great too! they are super friendly. a table inside with kids accidentally broke a wine glass, and I watched two of the workers immediately rush over to clean it up. I was very impressed with the response and the response time.“

“I’ve eaten here twice with a wide sampling of dishes and Devine is absolutely mind blowing. Their mixtures of flavors is truly a beautiful form of art……and I don’t think I’ve ever said that about any restaurant! Goat cheese and caramel? It’s now a go to for our own charcuterie board at home……Herb infused brittle and cheese? I need to have more! It is truly perfection! Last night we enjoyed their four course meal (i highly suggest two people get their own and split, there’s two choices for the salad/soup, main, and dessert, you don’t want to miss out on anything!). Every bite we took had us stop in awe. Devine is a gem! We even loved that the employees/owners come with laughs and personality. It’s a fun and light environment that added so much more to our experience. As the place got busy, our waiters didn’t waver in his attention for anyone! We appreciated that since we’re aware that everyone is still getting up to speed post pandemic, but Devine didn’t miss a beat! 🙌Cannot wait to come back! (Picture was after we had dug in🤣)“

“I have had nothing but spectacular experiences at Rootstock, and especially the MV location! The staff is so knowledgeable and is so kind within their expertise. I have so many questions and so little knowledge but they always make me feel welcome with all my questions. The drinks are, of course, spectacular! I impress people at parties now with all I’ve learned through Rootstock. And the food is so tasty, I love the Empanadas especially! They have such a beautiful space and I’ve now been here at least twice when the dim the lights from day to evening and it’s always such a beautiful and subtle but welcome change. I have no restauranteer skills but the expertise at Rootstock is so inviting and inspiring to me, I dream of opening up a Rootstock location in Canada where I go to school!
This is one of the greatest wine bars in the bay: yes for their wine selection! But also? Truly foe their staff, the ambience at their wine bar, the member program, and all that I learn from their experts behind the bar *AND* all the food I enjoy and fun I have. I love this place and I’m too scared to have tattoos for real but I’d tat I love roortsfoxk on my body, that’s how enamored I am! And this is a review after 2+ years of being a patron here! I should’ve shared my love earlier but ADHD 😅
but now that I’m a few months into my wine club membership, I just really had to make clear my enjoyment of Rootstock. The ambience reminds me of Edward Espe Brown’s writings: the table is a place of giving and receiving sustenance. Here we are served and serve others. That’s what I feel at Rootstock and it is such a pleasure and privilege! They make me want to learn about flavor notes so I can truly wax poetic about their menu, ambience, and so much more.
The TL;DR is if you are of drinking age, and in Mountain View: you HAVE to go to Rootstock. you will be doing yourself a disservice if you miss them! my favorite restaurant, from the chefs to staff to sommeliers! Endless things to love and celebrate.
Vegetarian options: There are a number of veg options! 3/4 flatbreads have meat BUT they are so flexible with substitutions. I often ask for meat removed (when alone) or on the side when I’m with friends and they are always so kind and on top of this.“

“Fantastic local wine bar run by people who truly appreciate their craft. They will walk you through the menu to find what works best for you and find your new favorite libation. Antonio was our guide through California and Spanish wines and was fantastic. They are starting wine pairing dinners soon and I can't wait to come back. If you love wine, good people, and good vibes then you can't go wrong here.“

“Tessoras is an absolute gem! From the moment I walked in, I was captivated by the warm, inviting ambiance and the effortlessly chic yet cozy vibes. The wine selection is top-tier, offering a thoughtfully curated variety that caters to every palate. Whether you're a casual wine drinker or a seasoned connoisseur, you'll find something to love here. A huge shoutout to Monica, who made the experience truly unforgettable. Her bubbly, happy personality was infectious, and her knowledge of wine was beyond impressive. She somehow knew exactly what I wanted—before I even knew it myself! Every recommendation was spot on, making the night even more special. If you're looking for the perfect spot to unwind, enjoy exceptional wine, and soak in an amazing atmosphere, Marta's is the place to be. Can't wait to come back! 🍷✨“

“A great experience! Cheese board was delicious. Soft pretzel with beer cheese is outstanding. Sat outside and enjoyed the cool California air. It was a super relaxed atmosphere and had a good vibe. We were visiting San Jose for a few days and picked this place on a whim for some downtime. It was pretty cool place to have a beer and chill.“

She didn’t pressure to buy additional drinks or take more home. She also let me take my time there. Thanks for a great experience, Michelle!!“

“A very idyllic place for a fine wine tasting. The location is right in the middle of the action. The selection of wines is very large. We took two wine combinations and a pesto burrata plate. The wines and the platter were very tasty. Although the plate was small and the bread looked a bit strange, we were very satisfied. What led to a star deduction was the service lady. At the reception you will be served in a very friendly manner by the gentleman. Unfortunately, the lady with the done eyebrows and sprayed lips was very unmotivated. She didn't say a word when she took the order. It's really a shame to employ such a lady. Unfortunately, this brings down the rating significantly.“

“Absolutely fantastic food, truly very inspired, elevated eastern European dishes. Both dranik we had were delicious, wife's smoked salmon was her highlight of the night, my short rib was only overshadowed by the flat iron steak. King salmon with miso hollandaise was a beautiful and tasty dish.
My only feedback? A cocktail menu would make this place a cannot miss spot. Bring the apperitif offerings into a couple of boozy, bitter cocktails with a couple lighter, sweeter options. You have a beautiful bar, populate it with equally beautiful bottles and cocktails and it's an easy 10/10
Kid-friendliness: No, don't bring your children to a fine dining place.
Wheelchair accessibility: Very accessible“

“An exceptional culinary experience at Protégé in Palo Alto. Every dish showcased masterful technique and impeccable flavors. The A5 Japanese Wagyu Ribeye was perfectly marbled and melted effortlessly, while the Crab and Caviar delivered a luxurious balance of brine and sweetness. The lobster toast was crisp, buttery, and indulgent, and the Black Bass—flawless in execution—was the best I’ve encountered. The Ricotta Dumplings , delicate yet deeply flavorful, rounded out an unforgettable meal. The shigoku oysters with whipped ponzu were indescribably fresh and flavorful. The sunflower Caesar, with its preserved tomato jam, was a unique and unforgettable twist on a classic. As for the brick chicken that we took to go, it was so delicious that it barely made it home before being devoured. The experience was elevated even further by the outstanding service—every person was kind, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to creating a memorable evening. A true showcase of precision, creativity, and hospitality“

“I hosted a small group for work at Sekoya and we had a fantastic time. Olivia, the head bartender, was super friendly and very accommodating when it came to making some custom cocktails. We were seated in the lounge area, which was really nice and casual for our group. We shared a bunch of starters and I'll have to call out that the fried mushrooms, the beef, tongue, skewers, and the crispy tuna rolls were really delicious! I had the tropical nights cocktail, which was so tasty and a good size drink. “

“Bistro Elan is a member of that most elusive club of always sought after seldom found neighborhood gems where the food is exquisite, the service excellent, the dining room tiny — though there are a few more tables outside— and the clientele quiet well dressed locals who have eaten there for years, never having been disappointed. The menu that changes with the seasons is always surprising but never overdone. The food is interesting but above all delicious and the portions are generous. Reservations very much recommended.“

“Amazing location but local individuals are ignorant.Me and my husband had some wine which was amazing ….2 hour later , two Indians came in , ordered and sat next to us . After a few minutes, they started voicing , complaining that we were speaking on the phone (not directly but went to complain to the employee working )Very sad that because we were speaking on the phone “ we were non educated “.Location is very nice but these some local individuals are disgusting.Individual employee serving the wine and attending to the location was amazing :) would come back just because of his service“

“The dinner was absolutely amazing. From the birthday celebration details to the amazing service by Khanh, our fun server and Marissa, the manager.
We were blown away with the quality of the food. We loved the macaroni and cheese (so cheesy), the mushrooms, mash potatoes, Brussel sprouts and that Tomahawk steak was to die for.
Loved the fun environment and great service. Even the help staff was great with fresh bread (amazing seasonal pumpkin butter, yes PUMPKIN butter), water refills and ensuring our table was cleared promptly!
We will definitely be back! We loved loved the service!
Dessert- soooo good. Baked crisp apple burlee or something with ice cream was so light and delicious!! A must try seasonal dessert!“

“Outstanding Indian Cuisine - Truly Authentic!
I recently had the pleasure of dining at this fantastic Indian restaurant, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. The food was incredibly authentic, and I was particularly impressed with the butter chicken and naan. Both dishes were absolutely amazing, bursting with rich flavors and perfectly cooked.
The service here is unparalleled. It felt like I was dining at home, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction. They made sure my food was hot, served promptly, and checked on me multiple times throughout my meal. It was truly the best service I’ve ever experienced.
I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a genuine Indian dining experience. The prices are also very reasonable, making it a great value for the quality of food and service you receive.
One suggestion for fellow patrons: if you’re considering ordering the bread basket, be aware that it takes some time to prepare. As a result, some of the breads might not be as fresh as if you order them individually.
Overall, this restaurant is a gem, and I can’t wait to return!
Vegetarian options: Many indian vegetarian options like butter panner“

“From the moment we stepped into La Catalana, we were transported to an authentic Spanish-Catalan experience. The atmosphere exudes warmth, passion, and attention to detail, making it the perfect place for a memorable evening. The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish crafted with care and rich in flavor. The tapas were exquisite, and the hand-selected Spanish-Catalan wines perfectly complemented our meal. Rodrigo, our server, went above and beyond, providing exceptional recommendations and ensuring we had an incredible dining experience. His attentiveness and knowledge truly elevated our visit. A special highlight was meeting Monserrat, the owner, whose kindness and hospitality made us feel at home. Her love for the community and dedication to creating a welcoming space is evident in every aspect of La Catalana. We visited to celebrate friendship and an award received by one of our friends, and we couldn’t have chosen a better place. As community leaders, we wholeheartedly recommend this hidden gem to everyone. La Catalana is more than a restaurant—it’s an experience filled with passion, culture, tradition, and heart. We have found a new favorite spot, and more importantly, a new friend in Monserrat and her team.“

“Had a team dinner here and they were able to accommodate a same day reservation for a group of 9 people. We weren’t able to get a table inside since they had another big party but the weather was so nice out that we all enjoyed eating outside on the patio. We ordered a few apps to share. My favorite was the calamari. Their focaccia bread was soft and delicious. I got the chicken parm which was pretty mediocre but coworker seemed to enjoy their pasta dishes.“

“Recently, we went to Afternoon tea at ESC in the Four seasons and it was such a delight.
The experience was different than other afternoon tea experiences and felt more intimate.
The portions are smaller than other places (especially for the price) but quality was delicious. For items we weren’t too fond of they took feedback well. Because I was pescatarian, I let them know ont he reservation and they took care in switching the items I couldn’t eat with items I could.
You can smell the teas beforehand and get a choice of two teas per person. I loved being able to do this!
Service was great and they change the menu every so often to update with feedback and changes of the season.“

“Everything we had was tasty. The mussels dish was our favorite. Garlic noodle was also really good. The salmon mousse, we couldn’t really taste the salmon in it but it tasted fine. We also ordered catch of the day dish (not shown in picture), the fish was light and crispy but the kimchi fried rice it came with was lacking; it tasted more like lightly seasoned fried rice—couldn’t taste the kimchi. Overall, the presentation was great and taste was enjoyable.“
