“LOVE this place. Dog friendly. Sit outside basically on water looking at the boats and eat delicious food! Oysters yum! Check out huge wall / tank of jellyfish display by Monterey Bay Aquarium inside!”

“Mr Ralph Carico is the most skilled trader I've ever encountered, I will certainly advise everyone to utilize his service, He’s so wonderful Ralph Carico.”
“Food: only ordered vegetarian food and everything was amazing. Falafel was probably the softest I have ever had so far and the mezze sampler was also quite good. I'll recommend starting off with sampler and ordering anything you like as a separate dip. Street fries were also good. They have unlimited tea and the mint lemonade was super refreshing.
Service: this place has minimal interaction with servers as every table has a QR code to order food and pay when you order.
Atmosphere: divided into 3 parts outdoor, indoor and patio. Indoors is bright with open kitchen and patio is dark with plants, string lights and heaters. Sat in patio and loved the vibe.”

“Saying nothing speaks to the exceptional quality of CCC. So…I never mention anything about CCC to my guests and out of town visitors. I don’t need to because it is virtually guaranteed that they will ask me where I get my coffee once they try some:) My worst morning is when I run out of CCC beans and have to use a store bought back up I keep on hand. The difference is palpable. Don’t miss out on this local treasure!!”

“Hands down, the best biscotti I’ve ever had! You will not be disappointed. La Biscotteria has the most amazing flavours of biscotti both with and without chocolate. They also sell delicious cannolis and panetone. It’s an authentic Italian bakery made by the most lovely family. The scent of the bakery alone will have you walking out with biscotti in no time!”
“Great service, food was delish. Chef made special sushi dish ( not on the menu) that was FIRE! My new to go place.❤️❤️❤️”
“We stopped in on a whim while traveling and we’re so glad we did! We met one of the owners and she explained the history! So interesting! Good, drinks and service were great! I highly recommend!”
“By far the best Mexican food you will ever eat. The menu is filled with dishes new to me yet also has some classics. This is true Mexico City fare at its best. The cocktails are creative and fresh with house made purées and syrups. I will be back many times!”
Outdoor Dining
“First time here and it was so good Had steak sandwich and chicken strips. Get the hot one I liked the best. Fries were awesome.
The staff was amazing by giving us the strips in different spices for our first time.
Beer choices were decent and I had the Double breaking bud from knee deep, was amazing.
Small place but have places to sit outside.
Definitely a place to come for games too. 3 TV's and you can sit at the at too.
We parked around the corner but small parking area.
We will definitely be back.”
“I love this place — the coffee is top quality, and you can grab a great lunch at the same time. They offer a nice variety of drinks and meals, whether you’re dining in or just stopping by. My favorite are the cappuccino and homemade cookies ✨️✨️✨️. The atmosphere is cozy and stylish, the kind of spot you'd absolutely consider for a casual date or meet-up. Highly recommend!”
“Everything was great. Waiters were friendly. Overall 5/5!”

“I have been to Ranzan many times for both lunch and dinner. This restaurant is elegant and refined, with meticulous attention to every detail. The service was warm and attentive, making the experience even more enjoyable. Every dish was absolutely delicious—beautifully prepared, well-balanced, and bursting with flavor. A truly memorable dining experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for both special occasions celebration and amazing food.”
“This restaurant is big on flavor and service! So impressed with the food quality. We enjoyed chicken and corn dumplings, chicken wings with an incredibly delicious sauce, kimchi rice ball, coconut shrimp cooked to perfection and a melt in your mouth sesame cheesecake dessert. All of the sauces served were amazing. We ordered a bottle of Dassai 39 Junmai Daiginjo sake. The 39 was clear and smooth with a complex botanical nose. Delicious! After selecting our bottle of sake, the server presented a tray of glasses from which to choose your favorite. The staff served in a beautiful sake dispenser that cools the sake while not watering it down. The whole experience was top notch. If you are a sake lover you must experience this. If you’re not, you should try it. Best dinner experience ever and it wasn’t over priced.”
“Went here twice for a film screening and Dust Breaks' EP release party—both different and great events! Good vibes, warm & inviting while having great staging for different kinds of events to play with. As an artist myself, I'd like to play a show here in the future for its vibes, drinks, easy access to food along the area, and friendly service! Shoutout to Allan for the friendliness and tech help!”
“Great Cask style beers and even better service from Chrissy at the bar. I also recommend the fish and chips!”

“We were traveling through the area at night recently and stopped in late at night. We were worried their lobby was closed, but they welcomed us in and were very friendly. Their dining area was spotless, though dated. Carl's Jr in general is a decent fast food option, though they are relatively expensive. The quality is notably better than some of their cheaper competition, though. Feeding our group of 5 came with some sticker shock, but it did the trick, and prices were generally more expensive in CA than what we'd get back home.
Another quirk we dealt with in CA, especially here, was having to get the bathroom key from the front counter. This was a mild inconvenience traveling with two kids and a few people with chronic stomach problems; we had to ask for the key several times during our visit.”

“We love this restaurant! Great food and beer menu and wonderful staff Food is sourced locally and in the 5 years that we have been coming here, we have always had great meals and superb service!”
Takeout Restaurants
“My new go to spot for pupusas in the South Bay! Comalito has delicious pupusas and yucca fries for an astonishingly affordable price - lunch for 2 at only 20 dollars. The pork pupusa was juicy, smoky, and deliciously marinaded but the real star was the garlic and cheese. The garlic flavor is so fragrant and delicious - it was irresistible with the crispy delicious cheese. The pupusas are paired with refreshing slaw and delicious and fresh salsa. The tortilla strips with beans they serve as a complimentary appetizer is also absolutely delicious!”
“I had the 3 choices bento box. It comes with salad, rice, 1 piece of pork katsu, 1 teriyaki beef steak (with broccoli & carrot) and 2 large shrimp tempura (with potato salad). $20 total. Good value and fresh food. Feeds 2 people. It was not very busy on a Sunday afternoon. I waited for 10 min for the food. It's for takeout only.”
“It’s within a central kitchen with couple of other restaurants on sites. Takeout only. No cash, I believe. All orders are made online through an app and you pick up the food from the window when it’s ready. Parking was extremely limited. Regards the food, we love the purple sticky rice roll. The pepper and salt trumpet mushroom was also juicy and tasty.”
“Lovely quaint little homestyle Italian deli with sandwiches, sausages, salads and soup. Thoroughly enjoyed, food was well proportioned but toothpicks and a nicer bathroom could have been better employed.
Dietary restrictions: Unfortunately for vegetarians/people who can’t eat meat, there are little to no options for non meat or dairy consumers. Most sandwiches have pastrami and cheese.
Kid-friendliness: Not too good if you have a picky kid. Can do substitutions; removals, etc but generally not kid friendly.”

“I recommend Tacos Y MARISCOS El GORDO because of their yummy delicious SHRIMP tacos are my favorite plus I’ve had their Quesadilla and Mexican style shrimp cocktail… I like the fact that their children whom are teenagers work part time whom are polite and friendly like their parents”
“La Maja holds a special place in my heart as this is where I had my first date with my partner! The owner is so sweet, patient, and kind. He always comes over to check in on how we’re doing and tops up our wine glasses during our meal! It truly feels like a quaint, neighborhood, restaurant.
Pro tip: Make sure to take advantage of the wine and 2 empanada deal that they have”
“My husband and I go here all the time. We absolutely love this place. We always get the BBQ chicken plate and share the regular size with 2 scoops Mac salad on the side and 1 scoop white rice on the side and it's More than enough for both of us it is so delicious we wouldn't go anywhere else for Hawaiian barbecue”
“Came here during the week for their popular lunch special and it did not disappoint! For less than $20 I got chicken teriyaki (get it with crispy skin), salad and California rolls. The lady who workers here (I believe is the owner) is one of the nicest people I have ever met. I will definitely be back and encourage others to give this place a try!”
“Solid pizza! Love the thin crust. Generous toppings. NOT OILY. Perfectly crisp and the pizza holds together when you eat it! I think I found my new favorite pizza place!
Ordered the ultimate pizza - mushroom and pepperoni!”

“So glad have a cafe in that neighborhood! If not for this one, there is no place to eat. The place is good too and coffee size is huge. Loved the decor, the ambiance, the service, the location and the food ofcourse! Had ordered the Breakfast Sandwich, Avocado toast, Matcha and the Cafe latte. Everything was good. It’s so peaceful place located in a corner.”
“Absolutely delicious food. Daniel knows how to make the most flavorful, juicy, and authentic tacos I've had. It's a food truck parked on Woodside Road next to the Safeway parking lot. The Crispy Barbacoa tacos are to die for. They're served with fresh salsas and consome to dip your tacos into. Support this restaurant and enjoy.”

“Located in a very small "strip mall" type location so I think some people may not give this place much consideration. But... I decided after a decade of living locally to go in and get a taco plate. The atmosphere is not the greatest but the food is amazing! And the portions are HUGE. I was able to get 3 meals out of one $15 plate there. Great flavor, perfect amount of hot sauces, they even put a giant jalapeno on top. I highly recommend. They also serve Breakfast.”
“BEST everything! A must visit. We were on a tour of California and kept returning - best steak we've ever had - the paella was fabulous - the duck confit, amazing - the charcuterie platter is ridiculously good - all washed down with amazingly delicious wines paired perfectly by the expert taste buds of sommelier, chef and owner, John Graham-Taylor - HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
“They have a great selection of desserts and tarts. We tried many items there and everything was excellent. We also ordered a kids custom cake and Sweet table of mini's and it turned out perfect! My personal favorites include the petits fours cookies, eclairs, vanilla cake with strawberries and their delicious coffee/ Lattes. Their breakfast and lunch sandwiches are a must try! They now also have Gelato! My husband recently placed a corporate catering order from them for a variety of breakfast and dessert items and was very happy as well. Highly recommend!”

“Enjoyed every dish there was to offer! The seafood was packed with flavor, and the best part was having all the different dipping sauces on the side!
The line was extremely long, but it was well worth the wait. Wait time is usually around 30-40 minutes, but it goes by quickly.”

“We were in Redwood City and came across this restaurant. Nice place for a meal and seems to stay busy. Our server was friendly and pretty attentive.
My wife ordered their Dip Sandwich & Fries which she really liked and I had their Hamburger w/ Fries. My burger was good size and tasted good. Just an FYI, they cook their burgers medium which was fine to me but others might want it cooked a little more. We said we would definitely go back.”
“Kemuri is definitely not a typical American Japanese restaurant; if you’re not raw fish eater you can enjoy much broader range of different cooked and uncooked Japanese food beyond sushi rolls and sashimi at this restaurant. However it is far from providing an authentic Japanese food experience. Which authentic Japanese restaurant does not provide tempura sauce but soy sauce for a vegetable tempura dish? And their smoked soy sauce, the staple of Japanese cuisine basic sauce is very salty and dark, another mistake. Other disappointment included real tough overcooked beef tongue and thick fried pork chop not juicy due to problems with the flours. The only dish we truly enjoyed is sardine with cheese, a fusion of east and west. That is probably the strength of this restaurant’s cooking but when I ordered simply traditional Japanese food, it is far from perfect. All that being said if someone wants atypical American Japanese food, this is the place to go.”
“I was hungry and decided to try a new place. Parking is located in the back and shared with a hotel. So you have to walk all the way around to the entrance. Good thing is you can exit through the back where the parking is.
I was seated pretty quick. Staff is friendly and servers were very accommodating. I ordered a bacon avocado omelet and a short stack of oatmeal apple pancakes. Potions are huge! The oatmeal apple pancakes were absolutely delicious! The server accommodated me and got me whole wheat toast instead of a white bread bagel that it came with. The omelet was delicious and the hash browns flavorful. This restaurant definitely has a family friendly vibe. Lots of senior citizens which means they have good taste and the place is worth visiting.
It was a little awkward / uncomfortable when the host told a server “Don’t do it again” twice in a loud voice while passing by tables carrying an order to a table. It seemed unprofessional…I know there’s a time and place to mention that to the server but she shouldn’t say it so loud to humiliate the person…there’s a time and place it can be said where customers do not hear it. Other than that I don’t mind visiting again.”
“One of the best chirashi bowls I've ever had. I was worried that since this place has so many vegetarian options that, their fish quality would be lower but after having this chirashi bowl, I can confidently say that their fish quality is not a concern whatsoever. Looks like this is another place me and my vegetarian wife will frequent :)”

“I LOVE elote, so when we drove my Maizz I was excited and came back a week later hungry. I didn't know what to order since everything is essentially elote flavored. I went with the traditional corn on the cob (elote stick). It was covered in deliciousness, but it got all over my face as I ate it. Not a date food. My husband got the carne asada smothered elote fries. The fries were a undercooked, but the meat was delicious as we're all the flavorings. We also got to try the deep fried corn ribs, and those were my favorite.”
“Always a great experience at Limon Redwood City. The atmosphere is classy but still warm and welcoming, perfect for a date night or a dinner with friends. The food is on another level. Every dish is bursting with flavor and beautifully balanced. The seafood is a must try, especially if you love fresh and vibrant flavors. We had the empanadas sampler and it was phenomenal. Each one had its own unique twist. And the cocktails? Top notch. Creative, refreshing and expertly made. I cannot wait to go back and try more. Highly recommend!”
“Great! I love this place. So good.”
