Restaurants in Los Altos

“Feel good food & atmosphere :)”

“So good! Our first time and definitely not our last!”

“Very good Turkisk food, great outdoor seating front and back, and always friendly staff. State St. has some of the best restaurants in beautiful Los Altos!”

“The food was really very tasty. The staff were very humble and courteous. Food was served in an excellent way.”

“Elevated beer and pizza, and pinball to boot. Owners and staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Their pizza menu is solid, and they’re good with swapping out ingredients for vegans, etc.”

“I truly appreciate the authenticity of Chinese cuisine, and the exceptional culinary skills showcased. The special tea duck, in particular, captivates my taste buds with its exquisite flavor. Each bite is a delightful experience, making it a standout dish for me.”

“Everything! It's a flawless dining experience.”

“One of the Best burgers I’ve ever had! I loved the Kalbi burger with Kimchi cucumbers! Definitely recommend”

“Such a delicious food and let's not forget the attention to detail with what you are being served.”

“Seriously quality food. Delicious tortillas and fresh ingredients. Free chips and salsa - got a super quesadilla steak and pastor - so freaking delicious
”

“This is a great place to meet friends for lunch or dinner. It’s also perfect for families because of the many food options. I usually order a burger, pizza or salad and they are all delicious.”

“Yummy hamburgers and sweet potato fries, great staff!”

“We have ordered only twice so far. The Greek salad is spectacularly good, as was the Adana wrap; and we enjoyed the Vegetarian Combo. The shawarma chicken on the Greek salad with chicken item was tough and chewy; and had little flavor, as if it had been left over from a day or two ago--most disappointing as I had read reviews praising it.”

“When a place has been around as long as this, there must be something good there! That's the case here. Been coming here for years and won't stop coming since we always have a great experience, great service and delicious food. Came here for an early dinner so right when the opened and allowed us to get great service, enjoy the outside patio and the quietness of the street.

Great dinner, will be back again”

“Breakfast bar, Dark chocolate cherry cookies and the breads. We’ve tried a few things and loved them all!”

“My son like the almond croissant. tried the plain donut..it's really delicious. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“I am visiting from out of town and stumbled upon this bakery. I purchased the fresh strawberry tres leches. Oh my goodness. It was one of the best desserts I’ve had in a long time! So so delicious. Highly recommend!”

“A nice restaurant with a local clientele. We had dinner on a weekday night and saw several regular customers enjoying their meals with no rush to leave. Our meals were good value, well prepared and quite filling. The restaurant has clearly been here for some time with happy diners.”

“Delicious food in a pleasant setting with great service. Recommended.”

“Great ambience, delicious food, and amazing service!”

“food was good, bu the person seating people was very rude ! like you were bothering him when we asked if the patio was available, other service was good.”

“Good food, clean restaurant, good service”

“I had lunch here for my 1st time. I will be back for many more lunches. Thank you folks very much and I’m looking forward to scarfing my left overs for dinner.”

“Delicious food, great service, and a nice casual atmosphere. We had the Gentleman’s Choice sushi plate and the salmon teriyaki— both were excellent and arrived extremely quickly. Absolutely would dine there again.”

“We are regulars at The Pho Cabin and have had it dozens of times because the broth here was so good. Last time we went there, something was off with the broth and noodles. The noodles were mushy and the broth tasted like salt water. It may have been just a one-off, but with so many good pho places in the area, we haven’t been there since.”

“Pulled off the highway to get gas and walked around town to stretch our legs. Came across Lulu’s and had to stop (my son’s name). Food was amazing! Tons of gluten free options!! Service was fantastic! Would recommend!”

“Great first experience at Ijuice! The barista on staff was very welcoming and quick with my order. Honestly one of the best smoothies I’ve had in a while. 10/10”

“Food ambiance service location”

“Great place, love the coffee and the friendliness of the employees.”

“Yoshi Sushi has several locations in the Bay Area which all of them are so consistent with quality and customer service! I have been to the San Jose one and now I have decided to try the one in Los Altos. Parking was very easy as they have a spacious parking lot in front of the restaurant!

Upon walking in, we were warmly greeted by the host and directed the QR code for ordering. I love the QR code ordering system because it includes all the pictures of the items! There was so many options on the menu and it was hard to choose since everything looked so good! We ended up ordering 3 rolls, 1 dream box, and a smoking salmon sashimi which was perfect for 3 friends to share! My favorite was the giants roll and dream box! The slices of fish in the dream box were huge and it also came with some uni too! After eating the huge buttery slices in the dream box, I will be surely having dreams about sushi in my sleep!

We Ordered:
1x Kamikaze Roll - so yummy, a little spicy
1x Smoking Salmon Sashimi- loved the smoke show, sashimi tasted smoky yummy
1x Giants Roll- as a salmon lover, i enjoyed this so much
1x Dinosaur Roll- reminds me of a dragon roll, but better
1x Dream Box- my most favorite, the slices of fish were huge and so buttery”

“I think it's good to be able to eat a lunch box for this price considering the location.
They also serve brown rice tea for free. I had the lunch bento box with a choice of 2 sides, $17.50. You can choose sushi rolls or nigiri sushi on the side, but there's plenty of white rice, so I personally recommend choosing a side dish. Personally, I'm concerned about the quality of the white rice. There's nothing wrong with vinegared rice, but that white rice is a no-no in Japanese food. The female staff member was very kind and managed the whole thing by herself. I think there was one craftsman who seemed to be Japanese.”

“The food is not pre-made, and it's freshly made, they have a variety of pastas and good salads. They also have appetizers, cocktails🍸 and good wines 🍷”

“I love ❤️ to meet my friends here for private gatherings to plot steps fit really big and bold new ideas. My preference is for the 7:17 (give or take) omakase at the bar followed by a night meeting around a square or round table. Each person has two people to talk to at the bar (Me - Jeff- Elon - Mark - Lauren - Priscilla - Sergey- - Larry - Larry - plus 4 additional guests if others can attend - Camelia Me 12 Camelia Typically my wife returns home early by Lyft or Uber but I stay out later and sometimes overnight in Woodside at a suitable location.”

“It was kinda slow as I was there a little past their rush but a great time to get good service. Sadly they close way way way too early for me which was quite disappointing as I personally feel there's so much more potential for late night revenue if they stayed open even after closing the kitchen. I basically had 3 different people serving me and would go back for any one of them. They were all super nice and attentive. Food and drinks were great and prices are favorable. It's not a cheap place to eat but for the type of establishment it is they're priced fairly and not overpriced like many places of the same class. I had a Hickory BBQ bacon cheeseburger myself which comes with a side of your choice. I asked for the meat to be cooked medium rare and medium rare is what i got. ❤️ The flavor? Mmh! Amazing! I'm looking very forward to my next trip there. They also have a full bar at that location. I know they're a family oriented business but I feel they'd also do well after family hours but maybe they're satisfied with what they got and aren't needing the money. I understand many establishments prefer to cater only to specific clientele and that's understandable but many would love to see them expand and would support it. ?? For now they close at 8:30 which seems to be a typical norm for that area so get there early and enjoy. ?

Vegetarian options: It's not a vegetarian establishment but there's salads etc with no meat and I believe a meat free burger choice

Parking: Parking can be somewhat limited if it gets busy especially since there are multiple business establishments that all share common parking areas. I happened to get there at a slower time and had no issue with close up parking. There's also a shopping center across the road that could be used if parking is scarce.

Kid-friendliness: It's definitely family oriented and have games there to confirm it. Might be a great place for birthday parties, etc.

Wheelchair accessibility: Most definitely ADA compliant with handicap accessible amenities.”

“This feedback for the cafe at Seton Hospital. Unfortunately, I've been visiting hospice care for the past 4 weeks. I bought coffee and an occasional brownie from the cafe a few times. I have to say, no matter how busy it is, each person behind the counter has had the biggest smile and the utmost courtesy to each person in line, including myself. They probably don't realize that their smiles and positive attitude really help. Please let them know they're appreciated....and give them a huge bonus 😉”

“This is a crazyyy good place. Price is amazing, service is good, owner is super nice, and food tastes delicious. This place is the best place you can never go wrong eating here🙏.”

“Great tasting food. Very good atmosphere with melodic greek music from the golden era of greek music. Good service. Amazing food quality for the price. The lamb moussaka is one of the best I have ever eaten. The taramasalata is smooth, not too salty, not too fishy, one of the best. Same holds for the galactoboureko, not too sweet, very aromatic and juicy. My only comment is a request to add vegetarian moussaka to the menu if possible. Again a great experience overall.”

“OPH is one of my favorite breakfast chains, but this location isn't like the others. The usually light, fluffy pancakes were heavier and the bacon wasn't the thick-cut awesomeness found across other OPH locations. The building was also an anomaly among other OPH locations I've been to, lacking some polish and charm. Service was attentive, so points there.

As a breakfast place, not terrible. But as an OPH, I expected more consistency with the brand standard.”

“Los Altos needed a place like this. Everything was on point, from beautifully crafted drinks to the timeless elegance of the space. I specifically wanted to shoutout Josh, who made our experience even more incredible, helping us find the perfect drinks to suit our tastes while still pushing our comfort zones. His passion for his craft really shone through. I will be returning and hope to see Josh again!”

“New “more than a coffeehouse” in Mountain View with a Venezuelan touch. Good ambiance and the menu offers an extensive list of items to please every taste. I got the “empanaditas” which are fried. Comes with cheese filling and ground beef. The red sauce was super hot. Caught me by surprise and I coughed and got teary eyes. It needs a warning! Coffee was great and look at that perfect heart work! Just beautiful. Parking during a Saturday can be challenging but a 2 block walk is a solution. Try it!”

“authentic Calabrese food - molto bene!”

“Delicious sushi and the sushi train is a big hit with the kids. The hostess was very nice and fresh and gave us free ice-crean mochi because they had run out of mango ice cream that we had originally ordered. Will go back there again soon.”

“I really enjoyed the banh mi with pork floss and pate. The floss lent a sweet, salty, umami flavor. The bread was fresh and soft. The pickles: mildly tangy. So good.

Food arrived in a timely manner, and the ambience outdoors on a Sunday afternoon was wonderful.

Given the recent string of negative reviews, I was a little hesitant about visiting, but was ultimately very satisfied and would go again.

My only wish is for them to have a hot tea option - not just boba and smoothies. It was early afternoon so caffeine wasn't appealing, and I wanted something lighter to complement the food.”

“Haven’t had the desserts yet, but I loved the whole wheat and Lepain loaves. Nice that they will slice the loaves for you if you like!”

“I have been going to the Los Altos location since the mid 1970's.......”

“it's the best ice cream i have ever had. evan the flavers they have had that doesent sound like it would be good .. is real good. and they give you samples if you want to try a flavor before you buy it.”

“We enjoy the interesting twist to the traditional brunch items. The food is simple, tasty, good portion; the servers are courteous and friendly; and the place is clean and bright. It’s our new go to for brunch and lunch.”

“Typical coffee shop atmosphere, comfy booths, great breakfast options and the coffee is better than average for a coffee shop and plenty of it. One of my go-to places for breakfast meetings.”

“Can’t believe it took me 3 years of living nearby to try this place. Latte was good and the outside deck is comfortable. Every table was taken, it took 5-10 mins to find a seat.”

“I discovered the place by accident. I was next door inside Michaels having some art pieces custom framed when I decided to look for a place to stop by to eat. I was starving. I was craving for pasta. And thats how I got to discover this place. I ordered the chicken fettucine alfredo. Love the dish with its chunky chicken pieces and al dente pasta. The complimentary cheese sticks with that cheese pimiento cheese spread was a delightful surprise. Next time Ill check their lasagna and clam chowder. I heard their clam chowder is as good as Boulins in San Francisco. I dont have to make a drive to the city to enjoy a good bowl of chowder. The lasagna looks so rich as well as their chopino. Im definitely comjng back.”

“I love Starbucks coffee so good 😊 😋❤️”

“Hail to Christian the magnificent GM!!! Seriously, made our birthday celebration for a dear friend one that will always be unforgettable. He really knows the true meaning of welcoming and gracious hospitality beyond measure. We are forever grateful for you MAGNANIMOUS Christian Our service was impeccable The food was beyond delicious IT WAS TRULY A TOP EXPERIENCE, THAT WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU WILL THANK ME FOR THIS RECOMMENDATION OVER AND OVER AGAIN GO AND BE SWEPT AWAY, LIKE WE WERE”

“Awesome! Good food and service I will be back!!”

“Best Nachos in the area! They are a little expensive but I'll pay because they are soooo good. I wish they gave more guacamole and sour cream though. The portions are too small for the amount of nachos.”

“One of my late night places to get my boba from. The staff are always friendly and even when they've screwed up, they apologize and are genuine about it and they happily remake my drinks with a smile.

I also love the prices 👍🏽 and the place always have plenty of parking outfront.

The order kisok is so convenient or you can place your order online on their website for pick up but after 10pm, you can't unless you have it doordashed!”

“Great local eatery with awesome food and service.”

“Food is tasty. Service could have been better given the price point

Third time here and it's not a bad place. I just expect a little more given the price point.”

“Their leaf quality is next level. I love the tie guan yin oolong. The boba quality is solid. Staff are friendly. Their matcha latte leaves a lot to be desired. It has an artificially too sweet honey flavor. Can't taste the matcha. It is barely green. Boba bliss has better matcha (Izumi Matcha even better though).”

“A fun place to shop.
Very well laid out.
Fantastic bakery, floral department, meat department, great produce...
Fresh pizza, coffee, a cute little place to sit and eat/ relax...
All in all, a great grocery store”

“Good food, friendly staff and I highly recommend for date night, family meal and watching a game!”

“Been here several times. Experience great service but you can easily get ignored when they are busy. The food is great. The chicken karaage tend to be super hot when they came out, please wait few minutes.

Katsu don - great. Beef plate - great but meat tend to be on the harder side. The skewers (MoMo, beef, asparagus) are excellent.

And panna cota black sesame to close! Yum!”
