About Horsefeather Palo Alto

Horsefeather in Palo Alto offers a New American menu with Asian and Latin influences in a dim, intimate, and modern space with warm wooden tones. The ambiance is charming, stylish, and great for a casual dinner, night out, or Sunday brunch. Service is consistently described as excellent, attentive, and friendly, with staff that are helpful without hovering.

The food receives mixed but generally positive remarks. Standout dishes include the delicious Korean Chicken Sandwich, Korean wings, steak, and Miso linguine, which is noted as a staff favorite. The saffron risotto is creamy and good, while the cauliflower appetizer is solid. Some dishes, however, can be rather heavy. Criticisms note that the umami fries and curry ketchup can be underwhelming, and some plates may lack memorable flavor or sufficient accompaniments. Desserts, like the chocolate cake, have disappointed some guests.

The restaurant features a rotating selection of seasonal cocktails and creative zero-proof mocktails, such as one with pandan, which are thoroughly enjoyed. While not every drink impresses all, offerings like the unique Golden Hour cocktail showcase a complex flavor profile. Overall, Horsefeather is considered a great spot for a solid meal and a great experience in a central location.
