Tapas Restaurants near Mountain View, CA

“We love this local gem and we always try to support them.
Our experiences have always been wonderful.

I do want to point out that I saw an additional “Operations Fee” surcharge of 5% levied on my bill. I personally think this is poor taste and reflects badly on the Management who should be able to run a profitable business with any and all “operational cost” built into their financial models.
You might as well have labeled this “charitable contribution “ or “donation”, or just raise your prices by 5%.“

“Among the best Japanese food in Mountain View/Los Altos/Palo Alto area.“

“From the moment we stepped into La Catalana, we were transported to an authentic Spanish-Catalan experience. The atmosphere exudes warmth, passion, and attention to detail, making it the perfect place for a memorable evening. The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish crafted with care and rich in flavor. The tapas were exquisite, and the hand-selected Spanish-Catalan wines perfectly complemented our meal. Rodrigo, our server, went above and beyond, providing exceptional recommendations and ensuring we had an incredible dining experience. His attentiveness and knowledge truly elevated our visit. A special highlight was meeting Monserrat, the owner, whose kindness and hospitality made us feel at home. Her love for the community and dedication to creating a welcoming space is evident in every aspect of La Catalana. We visited to celebrate friendship and an award received by one of our friends, and we couldn’t have chosen a better place. As community leaders, we wholeheartedly recommend this hidden gem to everyone. La Catalana is more than a restaurant—it’s an experience filled with passion, culture, tradition, and heart. We have found a new favorite spot, and more importantly, a new friend in Monserrat and her team.“

“Beautiful place, nice service! It’s my first this place,maybe soon again!“

“Great! I love this place. So good.“

“A new Omakase Group restaurant that brings the art of foraging to Japanese-inspired Californian cuisine. Connected directly to their Dumpling Time restaurant.

One of the best dining experiences ever! Chef Nik with Chef Griffin have truly brought the magic of foraged local ingredients, allowing the quality of the ingredients to speak for themselves. They creatively pair the ingredients with flavors and textures that bring out the essence. Love that the menu will be ever changing and evolving with the seasonal availability.

Both chefs and their GM Nick have such personable and charming personalities. For such a small intimate setting, they genuinely care about the experience for their guests. They have such an easy rapport with everyone at the table and they run a tight but smooth ship despite it only being their third pop-up weekend. Their warm, friendly and attentive demeanor truly elevated the experience.

Overall, AMAZING! From the food to the service, what an incredible journey. Cannot wait to return!“

“We absolutely loved the atmosphere! The courtyard is stunning, with a beautiful fountain and lovely lighting. The food was good, and the wine list decent, though it had only a few Spanish options. Services are also very nice!“

“delicious! lots of vegetarian options!“

“Love the environment, music, food, wine and staff….❤️❤️“

“The last time that I ate dinner at The Flea Street Cafe was 40 some years ago shortly after it opened. It was an exciting new and different place to eat at the time. I remembered for years having had a great experience. Flea Street is still great. Every single dish that I shared with my dining companion was fantastic. Each unique with great flavor and something surprising. The wait staff was equally marvelous -- friendly, helpful and adding to a great experience. I won't wait 40 some years to go back.“

“I had a date night here and we ordered the 5 course meal. Absolutely amazing, it’s our favorite date night restaurant now. Everything from the flavors, to the plating, to the staff was more than I could ask for. Josh was our server and man what an excellent job he did. Helped us with our wine choices, was very knowledgeable about the food and was all around pleasant to engage with. Will be back for more in the future after this experience.“

“We loved this place. 4 of us went on a Saturday night around 6 and got a table without a wait. Food was delicious- especially soup dumplings, pork belly with noodles and sesame balls. Service was quick, ordering was from a QR code with a menu full of tempting pictures. We will definitely be a return customer.“

“By far was this is the best Mexican food I've ever had. A bit on the pricey side, but well worth it!“

“It has been awhile since I have eaten here at Tanto, and I am happy with the meal, it was delicious. We ordered the sashimi salad, grilled beef tongue, the 2 crispy rice, clams with butter sauce and the uni pasta with egg roe and the small format junmai daiginjo. We loved everything, the grilled dish was tender and seasoned to perfection, the clam soup was hot and delicious with fatty clams, the salad was fresh with chunks of sashimi. The two dishes that I am still dreaming about are 1. the crispy rice with salmon, the crispy crust contrasting with the soft rice and salmon in the middle - OMG - I'll order 2 next time; 2. The uni pasta, so creamy, seasoned to perfection and every bite I took, I wanted to take more :) ... The sake was a perfect compliment to the meal, I walked out a very happy customer 10/10“

“I'm a big Barebottle fan and have visited their various locations before this one opened. Great beers including amazing sours (my favorite!). The staff are always so friendly and happy to provide tasters and recommendations when there are new rotations.

I booked the lounge area with with pinball machines and games for my birthday celebrations last week and the team were absolutely amazing. We opted to have our guests grab their own beers, but staff checked in with us throughout our time to make sure we had everything we might need!

Enjoyable every time we visit, whether for big celebrations, a flight after work or a quick drink before dinner! ?“

“Aloft Sunnyvale on its own is good enough value for money spent. However, what truly stood out was the customer ser ice of its front desk. Shoutout to Michelle for helping me out a ton when I was trying to extend my stay. No excuses were made and she found a way to get it done even under difficult circumstances. Roy was also great with the room upgrade when he saw that I had brought a friend and might have needed a bigger bed. 10/10 Customer Service!“

“Wow! Went for Mother’s Day brunch - spectacular! Food was served family style, flavors were excellent.
Eggs were cooked to perfection (caviar was optional but worth it), crispy breakfast potatoes with shaved truffle added, decadent French toast, and so much more. Very sweet details of beautiful floral arrangements, and small box of chocolates for all the moms and guests. A+, will be back!“

“We had delicious food and were able well served by Lucky who was very attentive, yet gave us space. I truly enjoyed the experience and will definitely be back. Highly recommend! Thank you Lucky for a grate service!“

“Good food will come back…“

“The staff are very nice and give great recommendations for drinks. They will even cater drinks to your preferences. The bar feels friendly, welcoming and has a good atmosphere. The food is also great, I the charred octopus, spicy garlic noodles and classic sabayon and they were all delicious.“

“2nd time here. First time was for brunch and we enjoyed the food, had most dishes from the menu to share. Last Saturday was dinner. The ambience is so beautiful at night, big fireplace, just enough light inside the restaurant to relax and enjoy a good and relaxing meal, no rush. We had champagne, very good beer that smelled a little floral. We loved crispy quinoa tuna poke so much last time so we ordered it again, still enjoyed it a lot. We had Wood fired Branzino, wood fired eggplants, olive focaccia was excellent, solf crust outside and fluffy inside, delicious. Chickpea fritter and mango sticky rice with coconut cloud. We love the food, service, food came in perfect timing, not piling up all at once giving us time to enjoy each dish. Excellent staff. Thank you. Looking forward to our next meal there.“

““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.”“

“Very authentic flavors, reminded me of the times I ate at the ryoutei style restaurants in Japan! サーモンハラスの塩焼き - Grilled salmon belly 生うどん - Fresh udon noodle soup ユズ香る茶碗蒸し - Egg custard with yuzu with crab sauce on top イイダコの唐揚げ - Deep fried mini octopus“

“Beautiful atmosphere, amazing food.“

“Everything was great need to put more food its will be better 😎“

“Georgian (Southwesterly Asian) Cuisine ! Fav! Very glad to see that Bevri now has a larger restaurant! Great 👍🏾 food & service.“

“Tacos dorado and enchiladas with dry fried beef! Got chicken tacos. The tacos were so crispy and meat was very flavorful! The enchiladas with dry fried beef was interesting. The beef is like a crispy beef jerky texture. I had a language barrier when ordering so just point what you want on the menu.“

“Enjoyable Times at Khazana, Palo Alto . A Refined Elevated Experience with Creative Indian Inspired Cocktails like Saffron Negroni, Spicy Bazar, Jaipur Bliss - This Trio of Cocktails started our camaraderie dinner with Aplomb. The Atmosphere was oh so cool & Buzzing without being loud and the lighting was soothing. Many Thanks to Hostess Pooja for being Attentive during our dinner there at Khazana - She is the True Khazana of the place and she ensured that the time spacing between different courses was well balanced and not overbearing. We simply loved the Shaam Savera and the Begdi Chili Chicken. Our game plan was focused on Appetizer centric like delectable items like Papads & Chutneys, Ancho Chili Paneer Tikka, Beetroot Croquets, Melt-in-your-mouth Smoked Ricotta Galouti All with awesome chutneys. For the Mains, Chicken Tariwala was so much full of flavor almost like a Roganjosh and Shaam Savera was the piece de resistance. I simply went ballistic over the Gulab Jamun with Rabdi which was lovely to look at and to consume. Assorted Papadums were a delightful accompaniment to the meal. All in all, A Most Memorable gathering - full of laughter - with friends,“
