New American Restaurants near Newark, CA

“We stopped into Allstar Burgers for the first time over the weekend. Thus us an older no frills building, but it seemed to be very well kept up. You order at the counter which the you man who took our order was very tentative and friendly. We sat at our table and the food was brought to us when ready. The Burgers we ordered were quite delicious. In our short time there we could see this was a very popular burger joint and it's easy to see why. The menu is no frills but everything you would expect at any local burger joint. We will be back.“

“I've been coming to this venue since July and don't have anything but great things to say about the great food & excellent service of the Manager, Susan and her staff who are always helpful. When I make reservation, Susan is very accommodating and pleasant.“

“love it!!! best place to eat“

“An exceptional culinary experience at Protégé in Palo Alto. Every dish showcased masterful technique and impeccable flavors. The A5 Japanese Wagyu Ribeye was perfectly marbled and melted effortlessly, while the Crab and Caviar delivered a luxurious balance of brine and sweetness. The lobster toast was crisp, buttery, and indulgent, and the Black Bass—flawless in execution—was the best I’ve encountered. The Ricotta Dumplings , delicate yet deeply flavorful, rounded out an unforgettable meal. The shigoku oysters with whipped ponzu were indescribably fresh and flavorful. The sunflower Caesar, with its preserved tomato jam, was a unique and unforgettable twist on a classic. As for the brick chicken that we took to go, it was so delicious that it barely made it home before being devoured. The experience was elevated even further by the outstanding service—every person was kind, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to creating a memorable evening. A true showcase of precision, creativity, and hospitality“

“The food, service, and vibe are outstanding. Every dish (we had 13 and shared them all) was distinct and a hit - no misses, from the milk bread to the grilled snap peas to the sesame fritters topped with smoked trout cream to the crispy pork belly to the meaty fat asparagus spears over a bit of flavorful rice porridge to the strawberry soft serve under a layer of delicious foam and over a layer of delicious gel. I could go on. It’s a super-comfortable atmosphere with friendly, professional, accommodating staff. For the number of dishes we ordered and their complexity, the price was reasonable. The only question is, why doesn’t this restaurant have any Michelin stars yet?“

“Recommended by my girlfriends who enjoyed dining her before, we made a reservation to meet up so I could experience this place for the first time. We arrived on their kickoff into First Fridays and while it got busy outdoors, it didn't interfere with us getting to enjoy our time together, holding great conversation, and also having Jake as our server who was attentive and swift in his service while being mindful as he served drinks, food, refills, etc. Our group of four shared multiple, flavorful, delicious plates (pita + chips, empanadas, disco fries, spicy handroll, quinoa + tuna poke salad, branzino) and desserts, along with several rounds of the cocktails. I will say that the mango sticky rice did not come with fresh mango, and the ice cream sub worked but did not meet our expectation as we had hoped for fresh mangoes. The pandan flan was also good, but we questioned its authenticity as it wasn't the light green color as it is in other desserts and Asian treats. Sharing as they were still good and setting others up for enjoying without expectation.“

“Es un restaurante muy bonito, sus platos muy bien servidos y deliciosos! Recomiendo a Local Union siempre, excelente servicio el de Guadalupe y Estefany!“

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

“Horsefeather is a beautiful spot that clearly puts a lot of care into its atmosphere. The decor is stunning — detailed, well-thought-out, and full of character. You can tell the team took their time crafting a space that feels inviting and stylish. Service was excellent. The staff were attentive, quick to refresh water glasses, and even took care to replace the table felt, keeping everything spotless and comfortable. As for the food, everything was solid and well-executed. The salmon was prepared nicely — classic and straightforward. The wild mushroom pasta was the highlight of the meal, rich and flavorful with great depth. The shrimp tacos were another standout; fresh, well-balanced, and seemingly made completely in-house.The only drawback is the pricing; it’s definitely on the higher side for what you get. Still, given it’s Palo Alto, that comes with the territory. Overall, a lovely dining experience with great service and a beautiful setting.“

“Kinda my favorite place til recently. Waiter F’d blamed me. 4 dined, we gave our order. 1 person changed their order, so 3 meals ended up being the same, then there was mine. They ended changing my order instead of the other person, he argued with me until he realized he messed up, never said sorry, and then still got my order wrong by cook my salmon well instead of veggies, which they forgot to add, but I paid anyways, to go.“

“This is a new restaurant in Mountain View, in the San Antonio Center. It's connected to the new Hyatt Centric, and a restaurant I highly recommend. The Poke Tuna Nachos and Wings were perfectly done and full of flavor. Paired well with an IPA.“

“I was initially worried with the reviews. Nonetheless I tried being too tired to travel out. To my surprise, day 1 - having the Pork Chop (it was fabulous) left me coming back for dinner on day 2 - I had their salmon (also perfectly done!) their service was wonderful as well thanks to Daniella. Excellent service. Ambience wise it is great.

Looking to be back. Keep it up“

“I really enjoy the vibe at Bazille. The seating is comfortable and the overall environment is very pleasant. They have a great range of menu staples, and the food quality is consistently excellent. It’s my go-to whenever I’m at Nordstrom.“

“Had a wonderful, fresh breakfast and a nice dinner at the restaurant in The Westin in Palo Alto. The breakfast I chose was the bar which included eggs, bacon, potatoes, and French toast. Cereal, coffee, OJ, and toast was available as well a 8 varieties of fruit.For dinner, I started with the cheese plate and finished with the Soleil Burger with Gilroy fries. Long Islands were outstanding. The cheese plate was excellent and served with toast. The burger was cooked to perfection with bacon and cheddar.“

“Seniors love La Comida! It's a warm friendly atmosphere where they can get a nutritious meal each weekday. And it's a great way for them to get out and meet people.“

“They have many. Places to eat that are familiar to folks like Starbucks coffee, Jamba Juice,Panda Express and Subway. There are also some independent places like the Coho Coffee House and the treehouse now both have very good food and beer available.“

“My son and I love this place.“

“Fun Times with the Hubby!“

“Stayed at the hotel on a Saturday. The drinks were ok. They dont have a cocktail menu. So you have to make your own request. Servive was nice. The steak was amazing. So jucy and flavorful. The mashed potatoes were yummy. The seared spinach was not that good. It was sour. But oval i enjoyed my lunch and drink.“

“This is the best dining option at California's Great America! With a wide variety of menu choices—from quinoa and beef burgers to chicken tenders and several types of pizza—plus sides like mac & cheese, seasonal vegetables, and more, it's the best value in the park. The condiment bar is well-stocked, and the staff is always friendly and efficient. The restaurant is well-organized, with consistently clean tables, though they can get packed during lunch and dinner rushes, so you might have to wait for a table. They sometimes run out of artisan sandwiches and desserts, and the quinoa burger takes a few extra minutes to cook but is worth the wait. Highly recommended!“

“Listen up yall, SAM is the best bartender your going to find around the area, you wanna learn about the origins of rum, tequila, bourbon, this is the man to talk too. My man's been to the patron plant in Mexico, he knows his stuff. Food is great drinks are great highly recommend.“

“M Grill was delicious and it was my first time trying the restaurant for dinner last night. My favorite plate was the Garlic Chicken Thigh. The garlic chicken was tendor and full of flavor. Their house special Bottom Sirloin was also amazing; I definitely wouldn't suggest passing up on this. Even though I felt like the same meats were consistently coming around at times, a definitely started to see a bigger variation at the end. During COVID, they have a nice patio set up out back. There is seating directly in the patio or right outside of it. There are also heaters to keep you warm. I'd totally recommend visiting M Grill; I'm sure I'll be back.“

“I have to say, not many restaurants serve their food hot anymore. When I ordered the chipotle BBQ chicken with mashed potatoes, they exceeded my expectations. So what if they may have warmed the side of mashed potatoes in the microwave? It made all the difference to my taste buds and mood that afternoon. Plus, I had the other side order of the baby spinach salad. I loved it. And im not one who is crazy about salads. The dressing, chopped almonds, and generous portion of goat cheese made me very happy. I will get this entree again since I am also satisfied they listed the calories next to each item on the menu.“
