“Our family of 5 went to celebrate my twins birthday. Our server Timmy was very kind and friendly. At the end of dinner he brought over separate desserts for each of my twins mentioning that they probably wouldn't want to share their dessert since they were already sharing their birthday as twins. That was very thoughtful of him! Overall had a great time celebrating . The service and food was good!“

“Best authentic Thai food outside of Thailand! I’ve been eating at Bai Tong for over 20 years and have never been disappointed with a single meal from them. It’s insane how great their food is! Actually I have been disappointed by them when they ran out of their fried banana ice cream dessert lol
I know pad Thai is the traditional Thai noodle dish but my personal favorite is Mee phad (Thai style chow main) no one else makes any thing like it. I rotate through their curry dishes every visit because they’re all soooo good. I wish they had a curry flight lol omg probably the fastest thing I’ve ever said. 🤭
Tom kha is the perfect comfort soup on a cold day.
If you’re in the Bay Area you have to try this food!“

“Man, this place just keeps getting better!! The atmosphere is wonderful, the staff feel like your friends, and the food is the best! I’ve tried almost everything on the menu and it’s all delicious, the chile relleno holds a special place in my heart. No one makes a chile relleno as good as casa lupe! Their margaritas also a great addition, perfect after a long work week! Definition of a locals spot.“

“Food and service were outstanding. Although half the seating was vacant, the noise level of the music plus loud voices made it difficult to carry on a conversation over dinner. Perhaps the acoustics are poor, but it was a huge distraction to an otherwise excellent experience.“

“Small batch, family-owned winery with old vine Zinfandel that is spectacular. All their wines are excellent!“
“This is my second time visit. I like to support small local businesses. I like their wine tasting selection. I met the Owner at Los Altos fresh market. And the staff Sandra is really nice one to make new connections. Small and locally owner.“

“Pretty nice restaurant. Came right after playing beach volleyball and I was starving. The ambience was fine, but coming on a Sunday afternoon I expected it to be more busy. There also seemed to be a slightly strange smell, but it went away after a little while. Also a little drafty in the restaurant, so a sweater would not hurt. The service was par, not bad but also not special. Same with the burgers. A little too well done for my liking, but that really depends on personal opinion. Also pretty saucy but it did the job after volleyball. Overall nice restaurant but not worth going out of the way for.“

“Excellent food and service.“
“We had such a lovely day at House Family Vineyards enjoying their wine flight. The views are absolutely stunning. The $30 flight included 5 wines (2 whites and 3 reds). I’m not usually a Pinot Noir or Zinfandel fan, but I really enjoyed theirs + the Cabernet Sauvignon was excellent. We paired our tasting with the Charcuterie and Cheese kit, which was delicious. Highly recommend visiting for the wine, the atmosphere, and the friendly staff!“

“Placed an order for pickup and it was ready at the expected time.
The portions were large and the food tasted great. Unlike the many subpar Thai places in the area, the flavor was just right by not being overly saucy and sweet and the noodle dishes had the perfect consistency.“
“Great people, excellent wine, absolutely a wonderful place to visit“

“🥐 Exceptional Pastries and Authentic Persian Flavors
Kandoo Patisserie & Cafe is a standout destination for anyone seeking a true taste of traditional sweets. The first thing you notice upon walking in is the incredible aroma of rosewater, saffron, and cardamom, which sets the stage for what is a very high-quality experience. They offer a wide array of good pastries that are as beautiful to look at as they are to eat. It is rare to find a bakery that balances traditional methods with such consistent freshness, but Kandoo manages to do it perfectly.
🍯 A Deep Dive into Authentic Persian Desserts

The Classics: Their selection of Roulet (Persian Swiss rolls) is light and airy, while the Napoleon is crisp and layered with just the right amount of cream.
Specialty Ingredients: You can taste the quality in the ingredients they use—from the premium pistachios to the delicate floral notes that define Middle Eastern confectionery.
Balanced Sweetness: Unlike many commercial bakeries where sugar overpowers everything else, the treats here are subtle and refined, allowing the natural flavors of the nuts and spices to shine through.
Variety: Whether you are looking for dry cookies to pair with tea or decadent, cream-filled pastries for a special occasion, their display case is packed with options that cater to every preference.

Cozy Seating: It is a nice spot to grab a tea or a Persian coffee and enjoy your pastry in a relaxed environment.

“I have known the Korean waitress since the E 3rd Avenue, San Mateo location days. Extremely friendly waitress. Food portion is always generous and decent quality. I have been to both locations but sadly, the San Mateo location doesn't exist anymore.“
