“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!“

We sat indoors at the bar next door as the outdoor seating was full and the actual restaurant was taped off (private event?). My husband and I very much enjoyed the food. Be warned - prices are on the higher side. The food is very good though. I had the sole and he had the bouillabaisse. I felt his portion was on the smaller side for the price, but overall good. We wanted cocktails, but at $20+ a pop, it wasn’t in the cards.“

“Drunken Monk is one of my favorite Japanese spots, especially for their oyako don. It’s the dish I keep going back for, but I’ve also tried quite a few other items on the menu and have enjoyed the variety.

The space has a cozy, casual izakaya feel, making it a nice place for a relaxed dinner or date night. It’s not exactly a cheap eat, but the food feels fresh and thoughtfully prepared, so it’s a good spot when you want something a little nicer without being too formal.

The corn karaage is also amazing and definitely worth ordering. Crispy, sweet, and so easy to snack on. I’ve also tried dishes like their sashimi, mini uni don with ikura, grilled skewers, and clam dish, and everything has been comforting and well done.“

“Fun atmosphere. Looks like they have a bar too for beer if you’re into that. The Taco Trio
was good. The carnitas, pollo verde & pollo asado were tasty. Mango was a choice of toppings and that made the tacos for me. The corn tortillas were heated up on a flat grill that made them a little chewy. I prefer a softer corn tortilla. Staff could have been a little more welcoming and friendly. 🥰

I was a little frustrated because I asked form my order to eat in but my food was out in a to go tray with a stupid plastic lid. The server had trouble understanding me. When in heck is there going to be leadership in this country to help with reducing plastic consumption? I’m so SICK of plastic! 🤮

What I liked the most was the early evening shade and the cool summer breeze on the outdoor patio in front of the restaurant. That’s the best on a hot summer day! BTW, are you contributing to any of the Democrats trying to flip seats in the house and senate? All it takes is a few bucks from each of us! 👍

Just wish there was a place to get a dang coffee around here! 😃“

The food was excellent. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared, with each dish feeling both refined and approachable. The cocktails were also fantastic, and the service really stood out. Everyone was attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming throughout the meal.

What I loved most was how effortless the whole experience felt. Great food, great drinks, beautiful surroundings, and genuinely warm hospitality. Porta Blu is the kind of place that works just as well for a special dinner as it does for a relaxed evening out.

Definitely a Menlo Park gem and somewhere I would happily return to again and again. Highly recommend!“
