“Beautiful venue - food was amazing!“

“Bistro Vida is the friendliest place with excellent service and delicious menu choices. We had a great table outside on a beautiful day for our family brunch on Easter. The salmon fume tartine was exquisite and we would highly recommended it. The lamb was also exceptionally delicious and tasty. We enjoyed the charcuteries platter and nice mimosas and cafe lattes. If you're ever dining at Bistro Vida and they have the Carrot Ginger soup on their menu, don't hesitate as it is the very best surprise! It always feels warm and welcoming at Bistro Vida, and we're always pleased with the experience!“

“Excellent, creative dishes! Good service!! 10 stars!!!“

“Friendly and helpful staff, great environment, attentive. my first time having Caribbean food and got the jerk chicken, the extra sauce is highly recommended for the extra kick.“

“The owner John is absolutely wonderful! Not only do you get high quality food and drinks here but you get to be entertained by John the whole time. He takes time to come and talk with each table and make sure that you are enjoying the food. This is such a local gem of a restaurant and a must go when in Menlo park for sushi! The quality of the food speaks for itself!“

“I recently dined at a fantastic restaurant that left a lasting impression. The ambiance was inviting, the service impeccable, and the menu featured a diverse array of mouthwatering dishes. Each plate was a culinary masterpiece, showcasing the chef skill and creativity. The flavors were well-balanced, and the presentation was visually appealing. The staff was attentive, enhancing the overall dining experience. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone !❤️“

“Food was fantastic! Covid has hit all restaurants hard and La Stanza was new to Menlo Park opening in January 2020. The owner / chef has his Italian cuisine dialed. The cesar salad was dressed to perfection served on a chilled plate w/shavings of Parmigiano Reggiano.. Delish! My short rib ravioli special was exactly what I was hoping for. Hand made in house pasta baked to perfection. My wife had the sacchettto vegi pasta pocket stuffed w/vegis . The red sauce had tremendous flavor... and perfect to mop up with the bread. 🤪... This place is a must try!“

“The food is absolutely amazing. They use the best ingredients and best type of fresh meat. Absolutely love it. It is the best burger I have ever had in my life. Have visited multiple times and will visit again. The owner is also really nice and the service is top notch!“

“A beautiful Spring lunch & afternoon! Delicious entrees!“

“The portions are large and cooked with love. Everything on the menu is fantastic. The staff is friendly and actually cares about their customers. A really fantastic secret little jewel to go enjoy“

“THE BEST cheesecake you will ever have! 5 stars“

“Amazing food. Tortillas are served warm, which was such a pleasant surprise. We ate vegetarian dishes. Food was very tasty and enough quantity. The best was agua fresca ( pineapple), which everybody (kids and 2 of us) liked. The price is pretty cheap for the quality they offer. There was music on and a vendor visited us all with colorful trinkets to sell - best atmosphere I would say :) Local gem I would say.

Vegetarian options: We have dietary restriction. We could tell that the chef and waiter were clearly trying their best to please us. I can't ask for more than that. Obviously the food was very tasty.“

“Have been back for a few times to try different things on the menu, I will let the pictures speak for themselves! They serves fresh, high-quality sushi and delicious skewers in a relaxing atmosphere. Attentive service and variety of sake selection. Highly recommend for a special night out!“

“Loved my experience, from the delicious salmon sandwich to the conscientious staff. Plus ample parking. We will be back.“

“Pretty drinks and yummy food“

“Kareoke is fun there and it started back today and every Thursday. Food and service is great.“

“I had an amazing experience at this Mongolian restaurant! From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel like family, offering friendly service with a smile. The food was outstanding; the grilled meats were tender and flavorful, complemented by fresh vegetables and savory sauces. I especially loved the build-your-own stir fry, where you pick your ingredients and watch them cooked right in front of you. The ambiance was cozy and warm, with Mongolian-inspired decor that added to the experience. A truly memorable meal!“

“We were looking for a new place to try and Octopus had some great reviews/ pictures of their sushi rolls. After looking over the menu we decided to head on down. Friendly staff got us seated right away and we started with a round of appetizers. Gyoza, chicken karaage and a Toro Nigiri special started off the night and everything was delicious. Ordered 4 rolls and a bento box combo and everyone was extremely satisfied with the food. Can't wait to return and explore more of the menu“

“We had a nice table in the mezzanine, which we really enjoyed. We were meeting with friends who really needed to unwind from some things going on in their life. Our waiter / bartender gave us great service with time when we needed it and attention when we needed it. The food and drinks were very good. The brioche bun dessert is fantastic - highly recommend.“

“Consistently excellent pizza with great variety in the salad bar. Excellent for their weekday lunch specials. A little pricier than the average pizza chain but quality is far, far better and definitely worth it. Staff is also super friendly and I’ve always had great customer service at this location.

My go-to for takeout pizza in the area!“

“Good sushi for good price“

“Overall really flavorful full, some of the richest butter chicken I’ve had. However they were kinda slow to make my order took around 20-25 minutes when dining in. But it was definitely worth it, they give you nearly a pint of butter chicken and you can order a pretty large side of rice but I recommend you get the rice and naan to clean up all the sauce. Overall pretty good I just think they could be a bit faster.“

“I came here on a whim as it's close to a few of my weekly stops. The tacos were sublime, seasoned well and not too greasy. The staff were friendly and seemed overall to be enjoying themselves. Atmosphere could use some touch up but also it's not intended to be a hangout spot like a coffee shop, so I can't fault them on that.“

“The food is delicious. I have been coming to this spot since 2008. Same flavor I love it. My son loves the broccoli beef and teriyaki chicken. I just love the 5 flavor chicken, kung pao chicken, sesame chicken, and of course the egg rolls.“

“favorite place to go with friends“

“I have to say, they have one of the best Authentic Pupusas I’ve ever tasted in my entire life. I am very picky with my food and I got to say man, they make one of the best if not the best pupusas in the entire Bay Area. They also offer quite the variety of food! It’s like a mix of Salvadorian and Mexican cuisine. Not to mention that the owners and staff are always very clean and they are very professional! I will definitely be back here soon. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I really enjoyed the ambience of this restaurant. Beautiful decor, ambient lighting, and an overall vibe. It is located inside the beautiful Hotel Nia, one of my favorite Autograph Collection hotels by Marriott.

The Wagyu burger was a great choice and I really really enjoyed the unique offering of garlic fries instead of the traditional or truffle option. This really was a standout of the meal. The burger was flavorful and cooked to my desired temperature. Tommy’s Margarita (not pictured) wasn’t as tasty as I expected but it was still a solid tequila choice. The best part of the drink was the dried pineapple slice. My waitress even brought me extra at my request which I appreciated. Overall 9/10 experience.

My server was nice and attentive.“

“This place is a step above Chipotle, the sauces and salsas are pretty good, and their menu of pre-set flavor combinations is also pretty solid. My friend got a custom quesadilla and loved it, and I got one of the vegetarian nachos option (which was *loaded* still, so if you're veg, you'll definitely not go hungry), and we both got Jarritos to drink. They have a full bar, too, which we didn't try at all, so we will have to come back for happy hour.

Vegetarian options: Lots of protein options (bean varieties, cheese varieties), and lots of toppings to make your nachos/tacos/quesadilla loaded and delicious.“

“Nice lunch experience really like the vibes here brought the family here for great lunch and love the place nice music really clean nice tv playing hockey.
Food was prepared at the moment really fresh and yummy my kids love it.
Abel was really helpful with us since the cashier made a mistake with the order.
Problem was fix right a way with nice apology and not extra charge including free chips.
We feel really welcoming here little price but definitely worth it.“

“Nice restaurant and good dim sum dishes. We had lunch late, many dishes were sold out. Only ordered 5. The xiao long bao could be better, otherwise the rest were actually good and authentic.

The restaurant was full of uncles (I didn’t even see any aunties). They all have such serious faces that I was afraid if I made a wrong move I would get scolded ?“

“Great food, if you’re from Singapore and Malaysia and missing food from home, great place to eat at. Recommend the Hokkien Mee, Chicken Rice and oyster Omlette. Crazy good! 👍🏽“

“excelente servicio y los tacos de pescado están deliciosos😋 y buen precio por todo“

“The soup dumplings rock! Love the orange chicken and Mongolian need as well“

“Friendly and fast service. Yummy food as always!“
