Wonderful, as always. We get there about every 3 or so years when we are in town. Our server Alejandro was extremely helpful and highly knowledgable about the menu and potential allergy issues. Don't fill up with gas at the station across the street it was $6.39 a gallon.

Ambiance, food, service by Guillermina is outstanding. Had the Halibut "cheeks" Picatta and the Slow braised grass-fed short ribs--both dishes the best we have ever had. Enjoyed the dark chocolate torte for dessert and also a sweet card and ice cream offered for my birthday. Perfectly balanced rich chocolate and touch of sweetness. Bravo, Jesse Cool and Flea Street chef and staff!

I have dined at Flea Street for over 25 years. It continues to be outstanding on every level.

We were hoping to sit inside but actually we loved our outdoor seating. The heaters and blankets were awesome! And we had the whole patio to ourselves! It's the best restaurant in town if you ask us! Can't wait to come back!

Exceeded expectations, exquisite cuisine, comfortable space, gracious service. Prices actually reasonable for this level of dining.

Wonderful evening. Great attention to every detail. Service was excellent, food was delicious. The chef came out to chat with us. The biscuits and butter were delicious!! They even decanter our wine !! It all made for a very special memory !!

Food quite extraordinary. we shared this and started w/'fried green tomatoes' light, tender seasoned wonderfully. My friend had the ribs, which fell apart and were so tender but she particularly liked all the vegetables and potatoes - she at those and took the meat home! I had something very different and wonderful the gnocchi with spicy Italian sausage and grilled fresh tomatoes - clever and delicious. We ended by sharing the apple pie with pecan ice cream. The crust on the pie was to die for and the pecan ice cream, we;; both were outstanding . Because there were just the 2 of us we were able to sit at the little table for two on the walkway. So fun and very comfortable, Service was outstanding, too.

I was really disappointed with my meal, definitely not worth the price point and the menu needs some sprucing up. I was completely turned off when my fried green tomatoes came with slimy microgreens. It really made me question the back kitchen. I didn't want to make a scene and wanted to be a good sport about it. Halibut piccata was good but you can't really go wrong with beurre blanc and puréed potatoes. Everything was pretty underwhelming— oysters not worth 30.00 the fig toast had way too much going on for such a little square of bread. Welp— I gave it a shot. Sad because I've had this place on my list to try for a while. Shoutout to the service staff— their service was great..

There was a variety of food from which to choose and every item we had was delicious. My only issue was the pricing of liquor was high.
A perfect place to dine. Excellent selection of cocktails and wine by the glass to accompany delicious food. Fresh ingredients from local farm. Attentive servers. Paintings on the walls by a local artist with an international following.

Highly creative menu selections. You can tell the chef puts their heart into every dish. A must visit Michelin star restaurant in Menlo Park.

The food is delicious, service delightful, the location is on a busy road. They try to make it quaint but it isn't ideal.

Upscale Californian cuisine, served in a nicely decorated, understated venue. The food is well prepared and beautifully presented, and the cocktails were delicious. However, the service was a bit inconsistent, as it took forever to get the cocktails, and the server would disappear for long periods of time. There is a parking lot next to the restaurant, but it tends to fill up quickly. Also some free street parking available.
