“We loved the cioppino and the cheesy garlic bread. As usual, the crispy shrimp bites are fantastic. We are always seated right away for our reservations and everyone is extremely nice and efficient. Their outside seating area is roomy and fantastic.“
“Details. Details Details. What a refreshing, beautiful experience. I can't get over the experience of this restaurant. The kindness, the service and beautiful location made me so excited to come back. Love the menu and the exabition kitchen! I'm excited to make this my spot!“
“This is by far the best restaurant in the Bay Area. The service is absolutely outstanding. The entire staff is very attentive, friendly and creates an exceptional dining experience. The ambiance is just wonderful. The food is excellent as well. So many different types and cuts of meat to choose from that it is easy to satisfy different tastes. My favorites are the grilled cheese, the filet mignon, bottom sirloin, top sirloin, grilled shrimp, and grilled pineapple.“
“We were impressed by the variety of food and drink choices, as well as the friendly service from hosts, wait-staff, and support crew that helped us. I especially like the majority of seating in booths and large spacious table layout that did not feel loud or crowded, even though the restaurant was nearly full. I also appreciate that there weren't TV's everywhere (except in the bar area) which can very easily distract a conversation. So Jack's is a good place to have a chat!“
“Two visits about a decade apart; I am a regular! I have nothing bad to say-service is good and prompt, food fresh and hot...had an outstanding draft German Pilsner last weekend. It had been a very long time since I had a draft German beer. Lesson for me? Take a break from the strong CA IPAs once in awhile. :)“
“The pan-fried buns are juicy and delicious. If you’re afraid of spicy food, remember to order the grilled fish without it, as it’s still very spicy even if it’s slightly spicy. The cold dishes sent in the comments are also very refreshing and delicious.“
“Such a wonderful experience all around! Perfect for dinner & dessert for our leadership workshop! Thank you very much. Cheers to accommodating our group and making it such a positive event!Vegetarian options: Big portion, but delicious!“
“Found this spot via Yelp and it did not disappoint. Large, clean space with fairly new equipment. Restrooms clean too. Drinks and food available. Affordable pricing. I would estimate about 25 pool tables total. My friend and I waited less than 10 mins to get a table on a busy Friday night. Employees were friendly and it was a great spot to hang out and play pool with TVs surrounding, music playing, etc. Would definitely return!“
“My cousin went to this restaurant few days ago with me. The service and food are both great. This is an American-Japanese fusion restaurant and we just had perfect steak and fish filet, also the waiter is fantastic, very friendly and talkative. I'll go back again for sure!“
“Hidden gem amazing food reasonably priced great service!! I was blown away by the quality of the fish and overall presentation. It's a small restaurant that many locals were dining in and getting takeout from while we were there. I will definitely be going back next time we are in the area!!“
“This post is overdue but felt it was necessary! After a day of celebrating a birthday with some friends, we all decided we wanted to go someplace close to our house to watch some sports and get some food/drinks. We stumbled across Hidden Tap & Barrel and ended up having an amazing time. We were one of the only people there, and our bartender/server, Monica went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. My girlfriend doesn't drink, so Monica took it upon herself to experiment with mocktail recipes, all which were delicious. Her energy and vibe kept our party going and we just loved her. We ordered a couple of pizzas from the connected Curry Pizza House, which was delicious. The bar itself is extremely clean and modern, with lots of TVs. We will definitely be back and hopefully have Monica as our bartender again!“
“Second time trying this place and this time it was better. Still sad not about the banchan but I'm just spoiled being from Koreatown LA. The food was really good, super clean place, portions are still big and shareable. Service was fast and friendly, bathroom was very clean and place was still insta cute. Definitely coming back when getting a craving for some Korean food.“
“I’m a music producer/DJ and put on a gig here celebrating my recent album release. It was a total blast, and the staff went out of their way to address my vision for the event without any hesitation. This is a great space for any up and coming musical artist that is looking for an intimate venue with flexible options for stage/furniture layout, sound equipment, lighting and more. I didn’t have to bring any of my supplemental audio equipment to the gig as a lot of it was provided by the venue - that was super convenient!My audience had a fantastic time and I will definitely be playing more DJ gigs here!“
“This bar is perfect! Moved into the area looking for a local dive and this is the best spot. Robert (the owner) has fostered an environment filled with amazing people, from staff to customers. Non-pretentious karaoke bar where folks support each other regardless of skill, and are just there for a good time. You can bring in outside food if you're looking for a bite to eat. Couldn't recommend this place enough.“
“1st time being here, we really enjoyed the service and good atmosphere, coming to food buffet on weekend we have 16 main course dishes + fruits + drinks( lemonade + mango lassi), +$1 extra for panipuri. Chicken entrees are not at all good, enjoyed the mutton curry and mutton biryani. Paneer appetizer is nothing but deep fried, gobi Manchuria, methi paneer are good.They have option of garlic naan served to the table, which is very tasty and fluffy.Overall for food I would rate 3.5/5 and ambience and service 4.5/5“
“As an Italian always desperately trying to find good pizzerias in the USA…. I think I have found my favourite one. Ingredients are fresh and authentic, and the pizza is just SO GOOD! And not heavy at all! Because that’s how a pizza should be: an healthy meal! Definitely worth it, spend all your money there, great Italian food guaranteed.“
“We wandered in to Milagros for lunch and were soon greeted and taken to the cute patio area. We ordered chips and salsa, and got three delicious salsas and a bucket of fantastic tortilla chips. My niece had a fish taco and I had the chicken taquitos. She loved her taco, and the taquitos were absolutely perfect. Jose 'el diablo', ? was our waiter. He was entertaining and likeable, very sweet and funny. The service was beyond reproach.“
“Supports local comedy. Karaoke. Pool table. Fun vibe. I have been to the Plaza so many times, and I would've never thought that I would find a bar like this in the middle of this Plaza. It's got a pool table in the back. There's a little stage for local talents. The owner is super cool. He completely supports local entertainment and arts. He's really easy to work with. The bar keeps are all chill and easy to get along with. Tiffani is so sweet and has such a good heart. Dan has been so helpful and has gone out of his way to make the experience here. Absolutely amazing. I know I'm gonna keep coming back.“
“It's been almost 8 months since we returned to Rustic House. We started off with the clam chowder and we weren't disappointed. The seafood pasta and mahi mahi taco was SO delicious and fresh. Mauricio was our host and he did a superb job. With so many restaurant to choose from in San Carlos, we hope to come back soon.“
“As a vegetarian who craves authentic Mexican food, this restaurant has become my go-to spot.My personal favorites include theFiesta Enchiladas (it’s tangy) and Grandma's Special Enchiladas.The Burrito Puya Burrito (little spicy) is another standout.“
“Cool hidden away local (dive?) bar! Wouldn't have even known it existed excepts friends band issues there. Looks like regulars must frequent the place. Decent set of beers on tap. Pool table. Some scattered seating. Great music atmosphere. I think the mic audio could be slightly improved cuz it was a little distorted but it's all good. Clearly a little older crowd.“
“I once knew a girl, we worked at South West YMCA camp, jeepers was it 1984? Fast forward to 2002 I randomly saw her in this bar and time hasn’t passed. We said our goodnight, but this a meet zone that has legs…it’s an older established neighborhood bar, a meeting zone. You should check it out. From my experience, there are a few ground rules, ready?Be good or be gone…No matter the size of your entourage, you don’t own this place, we are all transitioning throughout, so calm down.The deputy mayor of the town is at the end of the bar. The local doctor is at the bar, the local plumber that will fix all of your issues is at the bar, so tread lightly before you blow this place up with your outside view.Back to my original point of view, you don’t own this place with your ca$h, they own the history and you borrow it for a few hours. Be good or be gone.“
“Drinks were strong and delicious. Bartender was attentive and helpful. I got a half order of Caesar salad which was surprisingly delicious. Got a pecan Old Fashioned which was good, but on the sweet side. Then got an Oban 14 year scotch. Definitely was on the pricier side. But very convenient.“
“For sure 5 star and will tell you why ... this is not some fancy bar or all done up. It is a dive bar and when you want a dive bar you want. Good people Feel welcome first time in Pool tables Darts And that little edge you just want Most important any dive bar does not always measure , like some trendy place all you can taste is the fruit juice. Naw this is the place for a very far pour. PBR on tap and Jell-O shots when available. Come and just try the place you will enjoy it“
“It's a good old fashioned pub. Nothing fancy, just a nice comfortable place to have a drink and make a friend. There is a large outside area where you can smoke and have a drink, which is hard to find. It's my go to place after a hard days work. The service is the best !!“
“This spot is my favorite Cuban restaurant in South Bay! I've been going here for years and have never been disappointed. The ambience transports you when you walk in! It's a great lively restaurant for date nights, anniversaries, or even a post work dinner with coworkers. Whether you're sitter by the bar or their more intimate dining room, the vibes are immaculate and the servers take good care of you! We sat by the bar and went an hour after they opened on a Wednesday night- they weren't too busy quite yet, but soon picked up. They brought us house bread and we ordered the croquetas and shrimp ceviche to start. The ceviche is good balance of tanginess and spicy. It's served on bread soaked up with the sauce, but somehow not soggy, which they nail every time! The shrimp was cooked to perfection and had great flavor. The pollo croquetas were a special that night and absolutes melted in your mouth. The aoli was an excellent addition to this dish. All the flavors come through even without the sauce. For our main course we ordered arroz con pollo served with my favorite, plantains! The chicken was tender and melted in your mouth. It was well seasoned and as always the flavors were dancing on my tongue haha. We got the plantain crusted goat cheese salad with delicious sherry vinaigrette! It was light and fresh and a great way to end our meal. I absolutely recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting to explore authentic Cuban food :)“
“This is a full service restaurant, thus qualified for a full 5 star.I was pleasantly surprised from water, through chips n salsa, to final Colorado dish, that literally melted in my mouth as posted by another patron.I highly recommend you experience the food and service in a surrounding that was pleasant to view.Parking: Like a hotel.Kid-friendliness: Plenty for kids to look at.Wheelchair accessibility: Limited to 1st floor.“
“The food is great! If you get the 2 or 3 piece dinner combo it’s a ton of food for a decent price. The waitress was SO nice! Also, everything comes to your table really quick as the guys in the kitchen are on it! I live a 5 min walk away so I’ll come here more “
“I was blown away by the great vibe, cool surroundings, and top notch customer service. Very fast and friendly bartender and kitchen manager. Live music on a Thursday! I had a blast with friends sipping wine, eating, and dancing. The pool in the background looks awesome as well. Highly recommend if you are in this area. Hidden gem.“
“I remember the Pioneer Saloon from when I lived in the Bay Area and worked in Silicon Valley. I came there with friends over a few decades and enjoyed the live music. And, way back in 1975, my brother, Tom Martin, was a first live music performer at the Pioneer Saloon. Tom is still a singer songwriter performer.“
“I had a very positive experience with the company from beginning to end. The entire staff was pleasant and helpful. Very delighted with roller garage door; it looks great and does the job well; neighbours have commented on how wonderful it looks. Thanks.“
“When I say this, i mean it. This is the best poacha in all of northern California. The service is so kind and the food is top quality. Everyone should try this place and continue eating here. Thank you to all the kind workers and serving high quality food!“
“Stopped by three times during my week stay in Palo Alto. Chill, laid-back bar with Pliny on tap. Why try anywhere else when you found something right up your alley? Will be back next time my travels bring me to Stanford. Didn’t have food but looks surprisingly good.“
“Stumbled on Metro first day here on a work trip looking for breakfast and beer and wow! This place is the bomb. One of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had. The egg yokes were so deep orange I knew they were farm fresh, and the hash browns grilled to perfection. Service was fast and spot on. Tap beer had a Lucky7 local IPA which was fantastic. Stars aligned at this place!“
“This was one of our favorite meals in a while. Kemuri is our current favorite restaurant and I would drive up from South Bay just for a meal there. Highly recommend checking this place out.Our favorite dishes were the mushroom tempura, spicy chicken wings, and wagyu rice bowl/paella. We thought the unagi sliders were just okay and would love to try other dishes like the garlic fried shrimp and black cod.“
“Went for dinner last Saturday, my husband and I both got a combination plate. He had a fish taco and a carne asada taco, I had a fish taco and Carnita enchilada. We both had a mango margarita. The margaritas were very good, tasted like fresh mango was used rather than the typical mango syrup. The food was pretty good, and good portions.“
“Local bar with good selection of beverages. Pool table and dart boards and juke box. Occasionally events such as birthdays and holiday parties. Be sure to check out new year's. The best are staff - Morgan, Pam and Mike. Friendly and engaging. Last but not least doggie friendly.“
“This bar has turned from more of just to hang out to. It's my family. These people are so kind and nice and I love everyone except for Chang. Pauli read Sarah Amber all of them are awesome all the regulars I know they give you the shirt off their back no questions asked. So it is more than just a bar. It is the place that is just a complete hidden gem and I worked down the street for years and I was always scared of the place because I thought what kind of Degens go here and then I start going there and I found kind of a second family if you will. Everyone is so kind everyone will do what ever you need your own short on money during short on money everyone buys each other drinks. There's always hugs and yell, cheap kisses and everything else I mean it it is a legit family, so I can't say enough good things about this place people that bow shit are idiots or just don't get the way a dive bar as sidebar for god sake's. But it is one of the best ones I have ever experienced in my life and I have shunned off every single other one because this is where I belong, these are people I need to be around. so come join it come support the business because if people don't support the business, it's gonna go away before we know it and there's certain people that work there that are not the best humans and are going to cost the business to Freemans go out of business I mean that's all there is to it so just come out. Enjoy it hang out the back patio. They just replace the whole awning out there today. Just a great group of people I I mean I cannot say enough good things about it between the owner and the employees and everything else you know, there are all kinds of hugs given out constantly“
“This rooftop bar offers some of the best panoramic views of the peninsula in cozy atmosphere, perfect for a special occasion or an early night out with friends.You'll need to take the elevator at the Graduate Hotel to reach this little lookout, so don't be surprised if your map leads you into a hotel lobbyThe space itself is intimate and stylish, with a room for about five small groups. It can get a bit cold on the rooftop, but thankfully some warm blankets are provided to ease the chill. The staff is quite attuned to making sure your visit is comfortable.The cocktail menu boasts creative and playful options, and the food menu is small but good for sharing. Be aware that the drinks come with a premium price tag. Overall a nice place for a special occasion.“
“Ate here a few weeks ago while family was in town, and was very happy with the experience. Just barely ordered before Happy Hour ended (or was it Super Happy Hour? I don't recall!). While I wasn't really all that hungry, I opted for the fish and chips, because it's my goto for testing this type of place on a first visit. It was HUGE fillet, with crispy breading that was properly fried. I almost couldn't finish it, which is odd for me. Could have used a lot more lemon, as one piece doesn't do much, but that's such a minor issue. The service was great, even though our server was literally on her first shift, and being shadowed by another staff member. All in all it was a great experience.“
“Aloft Sunnyvale on its own is good enough value for money spent. However, what truly stood out was the customer ser ice of its front desk. Shoutout to Michelle for helping me out a ton when I was trying to extend my stay. No excuses were made and she found a way to get it done even under difficult circumstances. Roy was also great with the room upgrade when he saw that I had brought a friend and might have needed a bigger bed. 10/10 Customer Service!“
“This place was my to go to bar for the music, and dance but I think that DJ is no longer there on Saturday nights. It's not too bad on Fridays, but I like Saturdays better.This was my second year visiting this bar for the new years. It was pretty cool. The bartenders were quick and efficient.“
“I came to visit Saratoga for my birthday. My favorite part of this mini vacation was going to this bar! It was such a fun night. Loved the vibe and ambiance! The bartender, Jessica, was super nice! Kurt, the owner (owns it with his wife), gave us fun facts about the bar. There was so much history about how this bar actually used to be a Bank (hence the name). Now it's a historical building. The bar had comfy couches and some cool booths to sit in. If you're in Saratoga going to catch a concert at the Mountain Winery or in the area visiting you have to check out this bar. If you want to affordable drinks and to hang out with some down to earth people you need to come here.“
“My husband and I visited Shoreline Lake for a quick bike ride the other weekend, and I was surprised at home much there is to do in the area! Shoreline Lake seems like a great date or lunch spot, where you can go on a hike or do an activity, and then have a snack. There was free parking in front of the restaurant, and from there we were able to unload and explore the many trails around the lake. There's seating at the restaurant both inside and outside, and picnic tables near the restaurant if you bring your own food. The restaurant also had lockers and lake equipment rentals. For lunch, I had a chicken sandwich. The baguette was nice and the homemade chips were excellent. The flavors on the sandwich were just ok for me, so I would try the veggie burger next time. My husband had the breakfast sandwich, but my favorite part of the meal was the granola he got with it! Service was a little bit slow and there's not a ton of variety in the options, but the quality is good for the price. We will be back for a date another time. It also seems like a nice place to take family or out of town friends.“
“2023 has been a strange year, somehow me and my good friend both found gainful employment. And said gainful employment is a 12 minute walk from each other. So when you and the guy you drink with happen to be work neighbors, it only makes sense to go bar hopping during your lunch breaks. They have a 8/10 burger here, plenty juicy, plenty cheesy. And the fries arent bad. the ranch is different but also not bad but might not be what you're completely used to. Service was super nice here though, but I wasnt the biggest fan of the beers, felt the one from oakland had too many hints of curry flavor which really threw me off. Feel this place would be bustling after work though. Like really packed with workers from all the nearby offices.“
“They have 3 pinball machines, 2 pool tables, 2 electronic dart boards, a jukebox, an ATM machine, and all sorts of memorabilia on the walls and ceiling available for their patrons to enjoy!! The atmosphere can go anywhere from calm and mellow during midday, to exciting, jovial, entertaining, and filled with dancing and laughter in the late evenings. As far as the patrons, they has a great, blended environment; so no one will feel out of place if you decide to go. So... if you want to go to a place where you'll feel welcomed and have a great time, then Paul & Harvey's on Murphy Ave. is the place for you!!??? *Photo's to come...!“
“Writing this review as I sit finishing my wine after a full three delicious courses. I’m visiting a friend in Mountain View and had to fend for myself for dinner this evening. I couldn’t have picked a better place (apart from the Italian I discovered last night - but that’s totally different)! Do not miss the ribs wrapped in bacon to start, then I had melt in your mouth brisket as part of a plate (amazing corn bread!) and I just couldn’t resist the Nanana dessert despite feeling pretty full. Absolutely ace place. Yours truly, a London girl.“
“Absolutely outstanding Indian flavorful food. The restaurant is very upscale and the food is so damn good! This was our first time visiting this restaurant and we went to have dinner to celebrate my birthday. James was our server and he was so polite and helpful picking the right dishes for us. We tried tomato basil soup and manchow soup, both were amazing. Paneer takatak is a must have and sham savera is their signature dish so don’t miss out on them. Also, we tried nizami tarkari biryani and we absolutely loved it, it’s an Avadhi type of cuisine and you will be blown away by the flavors. Since they know it was birthday, they also got me a birthday treat. Last, we tried their shahi tukda and it was perfect to end our meal with a sweet dish. We will surely be coming back. I highly recommend you try this place!“
“Went to the Super Bowl watch party where they offered free pizza slices, popcorn and draft beer discount. You can park in the underground parking garage. The bar and bar lounge area is pretty cool. The staff were all very nice and the food and wine that we had was delicious! We had chips and guacamole. You get a lot of guacamole.We tried their fish & chips which came with coleslaw.The fish was crispy, crunchy and not oily, the chips were tasty and the coleslaw really good. The Prisoner Cabernet was very good.“
