Restaurants in Mountain View

“The overall experience was good, the food was tasty and the flow for Omakase was decent. We added the Uni which total per person was $200. I would love it if they add a few more nigiri to the Omakase menu alone is $150 per person. Is it worth it? Maybe for special occasions.”

“Best place for pastries and bread in town. Nothing fancy, just great pastries.”

“Pricey. But very high-quality. Had a CHICKEN CHOLULA, very tasty, a little bit spicy, enjoyed it. If you get the clam chowder (which is great), they’ll give you toasted pieces of sourdough with it. But if you rather have soft instead of toasted pieces of sourdough, just ask them.”

“Lunch with good friend. He is vegetarian. Excellent selection of northern Indian cuisine. Highly recommend salmon dish. Grilled to perfection. Patio dining available to bring your furry friend. Enjoy 😉”

“Wide variety of drink options. Drinks taste great! Place was busy Saturday night. Only con was one of the workers had trouble understanding me but they got another person to translate. Good service.
Drinks - pistachio jasmine delight, crème brûlée Thai tea, strawberry rose”

“Best vegan food in Palo Alto. I eat here as often as I can. FYI, it's cash only for smaller orders. Very highly recommended.”

“GK Pastry is a cozy, bustling, and charming cafe. Upon entering, I was immediately struck by the aroma of fresh coffee, the beautiful display case, and the friendly staff. I was eager to try their pastries, and I was not disappointed.”

“Great Desi Pizza! Highly recommend 🙂”

“Hands down my favorite boba tea shop in Mountain View. The prices are very reasonable and the selection is huge. Depending on the day I love an Iced Oolong tea with popping fruit boba or a classic black milk tea with boba pearls. Yum!!”

“Great in and out! Service is super attentive and nice. One of my favorite in and out restaurants that I’ve been to! Both register people, the guy throwing out the trash and the girl refilling the ketchup today showed great service qualities!”

“Nothing too special - it’s authentic and tastes great but I wasn’t overly impressed and wouldn’t come out of my way to come here again.

I think my favorite was the beef pancake, it was stuffed with beef and the dough was fresh.”

“The experience of dining there was next level. From start to finish they have perfected the dining experience. Food, staff, and ambiance was five star!”

“Solid fried chicken, was very juicy and the fries and biscuit were amazing. I opted for the white meat and shrimp combo, I'd probably skip the shrimp next time (they were good but it was so much food), think the meal and a drink was 27 and change.

Will definitely be back, don't suggest eating inside though it's a bit small and very warm inside.”

“great place and nice food”

“The food was incredible. I wanted to order almost everything on the menu. So will have to come back at least couple more times to try everything to look good and we couldn’t order in one night. Our old fashion cocktail and blackberry Mojito were perfect. And I can’t say enough about considerate, professional service.”

“I ordered $300 of tacos from them in their typical location in Mountain View, and their tacos were delicious. Later, saw the same truck providing food for a Sunnyvale EV test drive event; food was just as good. Very nice consistency and happy to see them around.”

“The lady at the counter was very nice and gave us samples of the blueberry boba. It was so good, I added it on my drink that I already ordered. I think if adding flavored boba, best to do 0 or 25% sugar since it’s already pretty sweet.”

“Indoor seating has reopened. Always the best coffee in town, by far!”

“Steins is a great restaurant with a wide beer selection! They also sponsor the annual MV Oktoberfest!”

“friendly staff, monstrous upon great broth”

“Was excited to try Tony Gemignani’s “Apricot Fields” slice (exclusive to Mountain View), and he did not disappoint. Chalk up another winner that went great with our Cal-Italia, and the Wise Guy. A little Hot Honey and extra fig preserve allowed us to add a custom touch as each desired. Can’t even complain about the wait for a closer Slice House, because I know Tony Respects the Craft too much to rush any location before they are up to the highest standards. Bravo!”

“Get the Diablo Chicken! You won’t regret it. Not too spicy but super savory!”

“Been going here my whole life. We know the family and are very close. Amazing food, amazing service, amazing atmosphere.”

“This hotpot is pretty good! We have lunch special for 2 people and it’s less than $60 in total, but we have a lot as the pic below, 2 meets, 3 veggies, 1 entree, 1 plum pitcher and 1 free passion fruit pitcher. Also, the food is really fresh, and we just choose mild mild spicy which is just right. Previously, it’s very spicy even if we choose the least spicy level.
Happy to eat here for lunch ;)”

“Great, friendly service! Food was yummy too!”

“delicious tacos and friendly staff. ☺️”

“Have been going to this place lately. Fresh and delicious. The price is pretty good for 1 combo with sides.”

“Boba Bliss is my go to milk tea shop since is walking distance from work. The place is clean, modern and with plenty of in door and outdoor seating. Service is fast and friendly. Menu has seasonal items, coffee, teas and drinks that are more on the milk shake side. The tea is freshly brewed if you're like milk tea for the tea flavor. Boba is soft and chewy. Overall one of the best milk tea options out there.”

“The Doppio Zero Pizza will change your life!”

“Plate so delicious, I drove back again after housing the tacos. Get suadero as your meat choice (smoky and deep flavor) - the suadero quesadilla was cheesy and so rich with the nice sauces too. Been here a bunch before, I've made the mistake of not going more often after I tried the suadero. Chezburrito is fire too. Service is lightning fast and friendly.

if you're looking for a late night food spot that hits, don't be on the fence with this one.”

“We saw it earlier and decided to try since there was a bright neon sign saying "Vegan" . We had wonton which was ok just a few wonton and lots of soup. I would have liked more substance and more veggies. It was just filled with mainly with cabbage. We also ordered a Vegan fish entree and scallion pancakes and rice. I liked how they had brown rice options. The fish dish was tasty though a bit chewy. The scallion pancakes were tasty but oily. They had lots of other interesting dishes I would like to try like kimchi fried rice. They even had Thai ice tea with soy milk which I didn't try. So would like to come back and try other food.”

“Welcoming atmosphere, very kind staff, and wonderful food!”

“Amazing food made with care by great chefs

Not just amazing sushi but also some very interesting side dishes

The chawanmushi was so good and satisfying

Great for special occasions
Full from just the omakase”

“A hidden gem near Costco Mt View. Had the 911, great mix of flavors including the Sriracha. And I had the agedashi tofu... also good.

I'll be back. 🙂”

“I've been coming here for twenty years!! Always the best food , best staff , drinks and perfect location DT Mountain View. Love this spot! #highlyrecommend”

“A fun place for dinner. 10 stars for the excellent, timely, responsive friendly service. It's right next to the train tracks, so it's loud when the trains honk their horns (we sat outside - you won't hear it if you dine inside). But the patio is full - so clearly no one minds the train horns. A great selection of food and drink options.”

“They have happy hour through 6pm daily which is good to know. Cocktails were good as well the pizza. The only we had is the clams linguine came in red sauce instead of white, server said he didn't hear it, realized he didn't even repeat the order or the option, was giving it a try even we hate seafood pasta in red sauce, just like you are having red wine with seafood. Pasta was over cooked and salty. The clams were fresh. Waited a while for bill even the restaurant was only 1/3 full. Not a pleasant visit compared to last time during thanksgiving. It was full house but service was quick and food was flawless.”

“Came here for the first time with our pup and had the best experience. The servers were SO nice, not just to us but to our pup too, which honestly made our day. They brought her water and gave her lots of love. Food was great, vibes were super relaxed, and we felt really taken care of. Definitely coming back. They also have draft beer”

“Las pizzas están bien ricas”

“Dumplings were really good. Braised beef in noodles are flavorful and amazing. The noodles were a bit overcooked (soft) to my liking. Maybe they can consider the option to have it less cooked (a little chewy).”

“I came across this wine bar after having dinner in the area. I’m so glad I did! Super impressed with their wine selection - I loved that they supported local wineries and they were so knowledgeable about all things wine. Everyone was super friendly and just had a great laid back energy. Am definitely going to be coming back.”

“Their food is so good it should be illegal!”

“Einfach top. Immer wieder ein Besuch wert.👍”

“Excellent food, bier selection, and outdoor seating! Traditional fare is fab as is the fish & chips.”

“4 of us had a fantastic dinner even though this restaurant is more popular for Dim Sum. Absolutely excellent food and extremely friendly, fast and efficient service. The Cantonnese cuisine was perfect.”

“This spot is definitely one of the best around! The drive-thru moves smoothly, even during those late-night cravings. Every time I’ve come through, the customer service has been top-notch, friendly and efficient. As for the food, it’s always been on point. Never once had to return anything or toss it out,
now that’s saying something!”

“first time going. I got a cheese steak sandwich witch was delicious!! the wait was about 5 minutes tops😙☺ i even got a free cookie seeing how it was my first time. i loved it”

“They have wall outlets and nice chairs! Customers were happy about the free $9 meal we gave them today”

“Love their foods, so delicious and fancy will bring my family & friends there again!!”

“este es lo mejor de lo que probado la recomiendo por editor de facebook el bagabundo i ueces el cobi 19 i Rigoberto Muñoz ochoa ide las páginas del amor de mi vid”

“My Facebook post: "There are many places I can get coffee to start my day, but few with quality that meets the need of the soul 😋"”

“Very very good. I have gotten multiple dishes, my favorites are probably the French toast, breakfast burrito, quesabirria everything I have tried is delicious!! Also very nice people, I enjoy having them so close to my work, and they offered me a free water! They are so nice and respectful, pay them a visit! It’s worth it!!”

“I ordered an eggless and sugar-substituted birthday cake for my mom and was trying this place for the first time. It was a very pleasant experience right from placing an order to pick up. I was able to customise the cake to be eggless, sugar-free and less creamy. The cake was very tasty, soft and just as desired!

Dietary restrictions: Eggless & sugar-free cake options available”

“Good Japanese restaurant. Check out the photos of the menu to see their large variety of sushi rolls. I had their dinner bento box. My husband ordered the barbecue unagi served with an orchid.”

“I’m not usually that kind of person that likes to leave reviews!! But this place is awesome �!! Great food, clean place, third time here and will definitely come back whenever I’m in the area .”

“A delightful find in Mountain View - local favorite boba place that has won Best of Mountain View awards several years in a row. Bobas are super soft and chewy! I would like my Hazelnut milk tea with stronger tea flavor and my husband’s Dark Plum smoothie to be slightly sweeter at 50% sweet. Not too many sweetness levels in some drinks - it’s either 100% or 50%, prices more reasonable than other boba places.”

“Das Bierhauz is a hidden gem for beer enthusiasts! 🍺 I'll definitely be back when I need a good brew and a relaxed atmosphere.

🍽️ The
They offer a great selection of snack foods 🥨 and pastries 🍰, perfect for pairing with their extensive beer list. We especially enjoyed the pretzel with cheese and mustard. The pretzel itself was perfectly baked – warm, soft on the inside, and slightly crisp on the outside. The cheese dip was creamy and flavorful. I only wish they provided a bit more mustard, as it was delicious!

🧑‍💼 The
The staff was friendly and attentive. They were knowledgeable about the beer selection and happy to offer recommendations. A pleasant experience all around.

🏡 The
The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, with ample seating both inside and outside. It's a great place to unwind with friends or enjoy a casual drink. You can easily find a table.

Das Bierhauz is a must-visit for beer lovers. With a great selection of food, friendly staff, a relaxed atmosphere, and amazing happy hour prices, it's a solid choice for a casual outing. I highly recommend it!”

“my first time trying their honey lavender coffee and I love it. I love the ambience and their succulent decor”

“grilled cheese/ with veggies”

“I freaking love these tacos, the cabeza is on point and the service is great.

Parking: Not really a parking lot since it’s at a gas station. Either park at a pump (and get some gas so you’re not an a**hole) or there are a couple of makeshift spots by the taco truck.”

“Modern elegance combined with a cozy atmosphere, it is a great place to meet people or hashing out ideas!The cappuccino I ordered was expertly prepared, with a creamy foam and a rich, robust espresso base. What truly set it apart, however, was its temperature—served just right, it provided a satisfying warmth without being scalding.”

“great 👍 love grandma's special been going there for years!”

“son muy ricos los helados 😋”

“Fast and smooth ordering process, great food, kind and attentive staff. Thank you for the wonderful breakfast! I had the benne dosa and it was delicious. I especially liked the coconut chutney.”

“CASH ONLY SERVICE! Classic Hong Kong bakery with all of the classic baked goods made by the owner who has been here for MANY years. The lemon cake is moist and tasty! Almond cookies have that familiar flavor and crunch. The red bean sesame balls are my favorite!”

“Luckily I stumbled across this taco spot instead of going to In-N-Out one day. Safe to say it was one of the best decisions I've ever made! This taco spot is super clean, super fresh, super friendly, and all around perfect. I feel like if I close my eyes and you told me I was in Mexico again, I would believe you. The tacos are that good! Would give it 10 stars if I could.”

“Cool place to hang out and grab a drink. Lots of beers on tap. They frequently have activities going on in the evening. Live music, karaoke, etc. The owners Eric and Michelle are really nice and Leo does a great job as kitchen manager. There's also a really good food truck in the parking lot.”

“My all-time favorite place for Sushi and Sashimi. A great place to go with a crowd that is willing to share. Everything tastes so good.”

“Got a burrito was really good. Our server , Sylvia recommended a margarita…it was great. So…great food, great drinks and great service.”

“They ran out of beer and the waiter just ran down the street to get more! Great service!”

“Lowest priced taco truck in Mountain View. Fast service, accept Zelle and major credit cards. Accept phone orders, great tasting food. As of 7/3/2025, they moved locations and are now near the corner of Latham St. and Showers Dr. Across from Target and DMV.”

“Great sushi! Must get the omakase nigiri or Toyosu special!”

“I like the tri-tip, roast chicken and pulled pork. Not a fan of the brisket.

The BBQ meal combos come with 2 sides, a slice of crispy grilled garlic butter baguette, pickled onions, slice jalapeno, and pickle.
The sandwiches are good too.

They have a shaded patio in the back for outdoor dining.”

“Vengan a probar la comida en este lugar es muy rica fresca sabor como echa en casa muy recomendable”

“My wife and I like to do take-out Tuesdays where we don’t cook and instead order food to pickup and bring home so that we can watch whatever TV series we have that comes out on that day. This week we ordered some Papa John’s to watch the Bachelor Finale! What a great pairing (although what doesn’t go well with pizza… let’s be honest… nothing).

Our favorite takeout chain for pizza is Papa John’s because they have the Papa Pairings deal, where as long as you order two or more eligible items you get them for $7.99 each. We ordered a medium cheese pizza with mushrooms (must be one topping for the deal), some boneless parmesan chicken bites, garlic knots with marinara sauce, and an extra side of the spicy garlic dipping sauce. We always order an extra dipping sauce because I like the spicy garlic sauce and my wife likes the normal garlic sauce that comes with the pizza order.

The pizza was warm and delicious, just like we would expect from a Papa John’s. We always make sure to check the extra sauces are there before we leave because they’ve been left out before, not from this location, but another.

This is the location closest to our house and we’ve ordered here before. We order from the mobile app and drive to pick it up. It’s a clean storefront, there’s no seating, but that doesn’t matter for us.

We’ll order again!

Dietary restrictions: My wife has a peanut allergy and we can order from Papa John’s”

“Great food at reasonable prices..great selection..friendly folks..”

“Won’t recommend everything in their menu but they do have really good and authentic options

Vegetarian options: Huitlacoche quesadilla is a must”

“very great service, one of the best I had, will repeat”

“What a wonderful place!! Went here for the first time and was BLOWN away by the hospitality!! The ambience, the fantabulous customer service and... well, everything really!! Amazing time!! Big shout out to the three people that served me, I only got one name, and his name was Ryan!! Totally made my day and experience tons better!! Thank you! - highly recommend this place!!”

“this is the best deli ever. all the food is good”

“Just happened upon Paper Platez, so very glad we did!! Food was phenomenal service was great. It was fun talking to the owners.”

“The best fish and chips in Mountain View & the tarter sauce is amazing! I highly recommend!”

“These guys are amazing! They catered my daughter’s graduation party and it was delicious! They were very helpful, and they did everything from set up to cleanup! Thank you!!!”

“Such cute macaroons! I got the Dubai flavor and it was so delicious. A bit on the pricier side, $6 but definitely great flavor. Will need to go back to try their other flavors”

“Fred’s is the best Monday trivia and Thursday Karaoke”

“Moderately expensive sandwich place with a Peet's coffee station in a different area of the cafe. Good varied selection to choose from. However note that they do not take cash! You pay using credit or debit card only. Also the paper receipt I got had faded ink so some places so be careful if u need it for business reimbursements. They give you an indicator which will light up when your order is ready and you have to come by to pick up your order. You can get free regular water from a fountain tap or buy the bottled water or other drinks. Sandwich I got was of moderate size and tasted fine. They have outdoor tables with overhead umbrellas to shade against the sun.”

“The vintage DragonBallZ sodas made my day!! The service was fast & the 15min wait for spring rolls was WORTH IT—everything was delicious and they made us smile the whole time. What a neighborhood treasure!

Vegetarian options: spring rolls, egg rolls, & a veg/vegan banh mi option!

Dietary restrictions: Great vegan & vegetarian options!

Kid-friendliness: Check out the anime-themed sodas for the kids!

Wheelchair accessibility: Very accessible!”

“Fresh air and warm . Food was awesome and they give you yours moneys worth”

“Tomar un café y rentar un bote”

“I’m hesitant to share with anyone who doesn’t already know…but everyone really should try theeee best papusas. No photos because we scarfed them down. The chili relleno was also too notch!!”

“Zareens is all time favorite
This time I did not like the gola kabab it was more like Paste.
The Nihari was awesome with garlic naan and so was the butter chicken masala we also ordered the rotisserie chicken which was also very nice.
The mango lassi is like a cherry on the cake.”

“We went for dinner on a Friday and there was no wait.
We got the Veggie Spring rolls for appetizer - The peanut sauce and the hot suace were great accompaniments.

We wanted to try the Vegetarian Banh Mi but unfortunately they had run out.
We ended up ordering the Pho Chay - Which was served warm and the broth had a really nice umami flavor (a bit on the salty side though). We also got the Bun Chay - Which was alright - It was very similar to the Pho Chay minus the tasty broth.

The surprise of the day was the Sugarcane Juice with Kumquat - It tasted great!!Quantity for price was questionable as it was just filled with ice but the drink tasted great FWIW.

Very generous portions for the entrees and we had leftovers enough for another meal for two.”

“Love this place - old school donut shop. The breakfast sandwich (croissant, egg, cheese, and ham) was maybe the best I've ever had. Definitely top 3 over the last 30 years.

Coffee is good too - that seems like a weird thing to write, but coffee quality at a lot of places seems to have degraded over the last couple decades(?).”

“Been going here my whole life. We know the family and are very close. Amazing food, amazing service, amazing atmosphere.”

“Have been going to this place lately. Fresh and delicious. The price is pretty good for 1 combo with sides.”

“great dancing, good options for all levels of dancing, friendly crow however, no live DJ and music tents to be repetitive with the list they have. You can memorize some songs after a while.”

“Just happened upon Paper Platez, so very glad we did!! Food was phenomenal service was great. It was fun talking to the owners.”

“Very good food and nice people”

“Good place to taste good Spanish dishes and good service.”

“Wide variety of drink options. Drinks taste great! Place was busy Saturday night. Only con was one of the workers had trouble understanding me but they got another person to translate. Good service.
Drinks - pistachio jasmine delight, crème brûlée Thai tea, strawberry rose”

“Dumplings were really good. Braised beef in noodles are flavorful and amazing. The noodles were a bit overcooked (soft) to my liking. Maybe they can consider the option to have it less cooked (a little chewy).”

“grilled cheese/ with veggies”

“Great food 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍”

“Foods always onpoint. Good service. Gets noisy on weekends but if you like to drink, it seems to be a happening place.”

“We had the most amazing dinner at the restaurant. We were there all weekend. The staff is amazing. The food is out of this world. If you are in the area, you must stop there thank you. I’ve never eaten such an amazing pasta dish and I love Italian food and you guys nailed it and let’s not even start with the lamb chops. Omg. I need to come back again soon.”

“ChickenG’s has AMAZING flavor! It gives you a long marinaded taste. Even their chicken strips are wonderfully moist and flavorful like. Off the bone! You gotta give them a try!”

“Hands down the best bakery in Mountain View area”

“Fast and smooth ordering process, great food, kind and attentive staff. Thank you for the wonderful breakfast! I had the benne dosa and it was delicious. I especially liked the coconut chutney.”

“Listen up, here's the move if you're coming here for ramen: get the chicken paitan ramen and skip the tonkotsu deluxe. No idea why, but while the broth for the tonkotsu was fine, it didn't transfer to the noodles at all so the total effect was it lacking flavor. My partner had the chicken paitan and I ended up wishing I'd gotten that instead.”

“Fresh air and warm . Food was awesome and they give you yours moneys worth”

“Excellent service, tasty food and pleasant ambiance. We will be back. Loved my sushi and my husband loved his teriyaki chicken.”

“Food is great but expect subpar service and a wait if on the weekend. I've been here twice now and noticed the same staff members. They all speak minimal English and some even use hand signs and skip verbal communication entirely lol. First time experiencing that at a restaurant 😂

Come here for good tasting food with a ton of customization, but lower expectations around service.

Cost can add up to with $15/lb. Both times I racked up over 2 lbs of food, but at least you get to take home the leftovers.”
