“If you haven't been to Molly O's you are missing out on really good food and the friendliest place in town. The menu is a great mix of American fare, along with tasty Irish standards. Salads are great, and the Paddy Melt is a favorite of mine... but then so is the Shepards pie. All the staff are friendly and you always get a smile. You really should give it a try!“

Cash only though. They have an atm on site if needed. Definitely worth it stopping by.“

“Our band, Drini & the Bad Kats Band, played at the venue for the first time last night. The entire staff, patrons and owner were great. Our friends loved the venue as well. I’ve been for Karaoke Nights several times and have always had a blast as well. The drinks are strong and delicious, just like I like em. Lots of space to move around too. 🤗🎤🎉“

“Solidly delicious! The prime rib was great. The Yorkshire pudding and crème brûlée were also standout highlights. In my opinion, it’s not quite on the same level as House of Prime Rib, but it comes pretty close — and it’s way easier to snag a reservation.“

“Excellent bar, close to the train. Good prices on drinks and salty bar nuts to keep you thirsty. It was nice and quiet when my group went and the barman told me they do free reserved parties so that's gonna be my next adults-only venue“

“Went here twice for a film screening and Dust Breaks' EP release party—both different and great events! Good vibes, warm & inviting while having great staging for different kinds of events to play with. As an artist myself, I'd like to play a show here in the future for its vibes, drinks, easy access to food along the area, and friendly service! Shoutout to Allan for the friendliness and tech help!“

“Such a find in strip mall in Sunnyvale! Regulars greeted me kindly, and Noreen the KJ host is so sweet and moves thru the rotation at a fast pace, allowing everyone a chance to sing. Pinball game spits out multi-ball rounds like crazy! Fun times both nights I have been so far.“

“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.“

“We were weary travelers stopping by Scotty's in hope of a more chill vibe with some good food, and Scottys delivered! Our bartender, Sergio, was so friendly and fun! We got some inside knowledge about the town as we are from Oregon. The drinks were perfect and the food was top notch! I would have expected to pay a lot more for the quality of food and service we received at literally any of the surrounding places. We will visit Palo Alto again if only to go back to Scotty's as a new tradition! Thank you, Sergio, for making our anniversary dinner a great one! Someone give him a raise!“

“Have been here a few times, and it's a cool spot.

The staff and patrons have always been polite with me. However, I crossed the line. Last night, I was a coward and blew a chance with a girl elsewhere, and chose to get wasted, harass a woman and try to grab her. I'm lucky I didn't get my butt kicked. I had it coming.

To everyone that had to deal with me, I'm sorry. I was way out of line. Take care.“

“good chill place to hangout and have drinks and shoot pool with the locals. everyone there is chill“

“Karaoke with Ben on Thursday nights is always a blast. Good parking in front and rear, good bartenders, drinks, 2 pool tables, dart board, clean bathrooms, and a relaxed low-key dive bar feel. If you're looking for a local hideaway, then The Harbor is your refuge.

Wheelchair accessibility: ADA accessibility“

“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 !!“

They were both super helpful and made it easy. Had a great time with good drinks. Even pumped our own music through their sound system. Nice looking place with chill vibe.“

“Had a wonderful, fresh breakfast and a nice dinner at the restaurant in The Westin in Palo Alto. The breakfast I chose was the bar which included eggs, bacon, potatoes, and French toast. Cereal, coffee, OJ, and toast was available as well a 8 varieties of fruit.For dinner, I started with the cheese plate and finished with the Soleil Burger with Gilroy fries. Long Islands were outstanding. The cheese plate was excellent and served with toast. The burger was cooked to perfection with bacon and cheddar.“

“Great way to spend some time.! Friendly people every where. It is realky great when you win too! Lol“

“Fantastic bar with solid food options and one of the best atmospheres around. Both bar tenders were superb and they had a great selection of Irish and US based whiskeys.

Of course I highly recommend her. You will not regret it. You will return and above all, the results are instantaneous. thank you ? My Lore“

“An interesting place to stop for lunch if you’re at Moffet Field. And it has a dog friend patio. The bar was closed on the Wednesday we went, but the grill was open.
This was apparently the former Officers Club building and sits across from the looming Hangar One.
Both the patty melt and Philly cheesesteak were tasty.
Don’t miss the Moffet Field Museum across the street.“

“First time there with friends. Would recommend. They have a killer banana split on the menu for desert, can't beat that. Food fresh! Owner was so kind and the woman that served our table was very nice and accommodating! I'll be back!“

“Mr Ralph Carico is the most skilled trader I've ever encountered, I will certainly advise everyone to utilize his service, He’s so wonderful Ralph Carico.“

“Hello just want to express my appreciation for the doorman, JP. He consistently demonstrates a strong sense of alertness and professionalism in his role. I feel confident that if I were ever in a situation where I felt uncomfortable, I could approach him, and he would ensure my safety. His presence is reassuring and greatly valued. If your ever in the area Eddies is always a great time…“

“Great venue for parties & just a nice place to have drinks. Beer selection is fabulous as is the atmosphere. McGoverns bartenders are fun friendly & helpful. There are numerous games to enjoy playing from table hockey, billiards, checkers, pinball, ect. If you walk in solo...you’ll find yourself with plenty of friendly people & conversation!“

““I had an amazing experience the other day. You’ve got to try the Octopus Carpaccio if you're into seafood—it’s incredibly tender and packed with flavor. And don’t skip the Bread & “Butter”; it’s a game-changer with its whipped bone marrow spread over warm, crusty sourdough. Absolutely delicious!I also tried the Cup of Gold cocktail while I was there. It’s a fantastic mix of bourbon infused with golden raisins, Madeira, honey, and just a hint of celery bitters, creating a unique, smooth flavor that’s both sweet and subtly earthy.Sitting on their rooftop, enjoying these incredible dishes and drinks, really made my day. The vibe up there is just so cool and laid-back—it's the perfect place to unwind and soak in the views over Palo Alto. Whether you’re looking for great food, tasty drinks, or just a chill spot to hang out, President’s Terrace is definitely worth a visit.”“

“Good food and drinks but Very pricey. Great staff. The food is pretty good. There is a young girl that works in the kitchen that's just Very rude and off-putting for no reason. No matter how nice you are it's like she has something against you. But all in all a great place.“

“Wonderful experience at Ray’s Grill. Everything was great, we had such a great time.We went there on a Sunday for lunch and the place was empty. Service was good as well and super quick.We got a poke bowl, fries, wings, sandwich and a butter squash salad.The nachos were awesome loaded with cheese and guacamole. Better than in some Mexican restaurant.“

“Everything was great. Waiters were friendly. Overall 5/5!“

“LOVE this place. The food presentations ! Always start with warm olives. Sunday: cognac hot toddy. The flavors in the salmon crudo (raw), grilled broccoli, chocolate yule log, the bartender's drinks and food descriptions are worth the wait to eat.“

“A bunch of us went the other night , Great Place very clean lots of tables, Plan on having a company party there this summer ! Highly recommend“

“Great food but expensive. It was a great treat for me. I did enjoy it.“

“The do called "inclusive" atmosphere is really just an owner who hates everyone who has different views. If your social or political views are woke, you aren't welcome. Spend your money elsewhere. This guy is an idiot.“

“Great owner! Great Staff! Comfortable surroundings! Gotta be there!!“
