Definitely a great place to grab a bite if you’re in the area!“

Very tasty and fresh, and it made for a satisfying breakfast without being overly pricey. The jalapeno was a nice touch and added a lot to it.“

“I often visit this spot as a sweet treat after a long day and it’s the best feeling. Their froyo has a really strong yogurt taste, and I recommend adding the baklava and honey for sweetness and depth. Their baklava is good by itself too. Servers ate very nice and polite. Highly recommend!“

“We had a great dining experience at Urban Plates in Long Beach. Mariana explained the menu choices in a very unrushed manner, and we decided on the steak. I ordered the Chimichurri grass-fed steak with balsamic brussel sprouts and herb-roasted potatoes. All of it was delicious ( and healthy too!). The deserts were absolutely killer too. We will definitely eat here again next time we're in Long Beach.“

“Pricey. But very high-quality. Had a CHICKEN CHOLULA, very tasty, a little bit spicy, enjoyed it. If you get the clam chowder (which is great), they’ll give you toasted pieces of sourdough with it. But if you rather have soft instead of toasted pieces of sourdough, just ask them.“

“Easily the best sandwich of my lifetime. I paused after every bite, saying “Damn, this is amazing”. The bread had that perfect crust and taste. While I’m at it, it’s also hard for me to remember a better tasting chocolate chip cookie.“

“Pepperoni pizza was amazing! Crispy pepperonis made it absolutely delicious. I must say I’ve had New York, Chicago, and Detroit pizza. Pizza guys is up there in the taste and quality. No joke. Also ordered cheesy bread which was good too. Would’ve posted a picture but it’s gone! So thankful they were open on Friday night to get some food“

“ONE word "EXCELLENT". Great menu, love the murals, quick service, clean and they even serve beer and wine. parking is tricky so have patience. Garlic Fries, Hummus, Combo Gyro Plate!“

“New York Pizza in Palo Alto is, in my opinion, the best pizza in the Bay Area. The taste of their pizzas is absolutely delightful, and the ingredients are fresh and high-quality. The staff is just amazing, so attentive, friendly, and always ready to serve and make sure you’re satisfied. I love dining in, but their delivery service is also fantastic. It’s a treat every single time! Thank you for everything!“

“Very nice restaurant, ordered lamb noodle soup, got really delicious noodles and good broth. The place overall is sparkling clean. The downside - it's pricey, $22(tips included) for a bowl of noodles is way too much. But on Fri during the lunch time the place was nearly packed

Update on Oct 2026
4 stars confirmed 👍 Excellent food, especially noodles, clean facilities, very good and nice service. The only downside - a bit pricey“

I also really appreciated the layout; the atmosphere is pleasant and there is plenty of space between tables so you don't feel crowded. Highly recommend!“

“We had a lovely lunch. Food and service were excellent!“

“We didn't realize how much a difference good bread has on a sandwich! Their meats and veggies are already good, but their sourdough is next level. We love it so much, we get the baguettes to take home. The staff is really nice here as well and it's clean with plenty of seating. Parking is easy in the adjacent lot. Good value, too.“

“Fun, friendly, non-pretentious place. And the burgers are all that you want and nothing you don’t.“

“My family and I just recently went to Sourdough and had a great experience. The staff were very welcoming and very patient with our group. The restaurant itself was very clean. Tables were brand new with cool designs. The atmosphere was also very respectful and peaceful.

Food was also very exceptional for the price. I had the grilled chicken sandwich. The meat was very tender and overall very good. Others in our group that are vegetarian were also very pleased with their meals. The Caprese sandwich and the ttomato bisque with the side of bread were very popular. The cookies though shouldn't be overlooked. They were very soft and delicious. If you come here you have to give the cookies a try.“

“Easily the best sandwich of my lifetime. I paused after every bite, saying “Damn, this is amazing”. The bread had that perfect crust and taste. While I’m at it, it’s also hard for me to remember a better tasting chocolate chip cookie.“

“I had the most amazing experience and it was my first time. I will definitely go back before l leave San Francisco.“

“I am so glad they opened this sandwich spot! I ordered 5 items for takeout and it came out to only $34. I got 2 veggie sandwiches on Dutch crunch. Best sandwiches in San Mateo County. I also tried their 2 dessert options. They have the bst carrot cake I have ever had! Their chocolate chip cookie tasted very rich. I had their veggie soup which was fresh and delicious. This place is my new go to spot. The location is a little awkward, but the inside is organized and clean. It only took 10 minutes to make my order. Definitely a satisfied customer!!!“

“pizzas muy ricas y saludables buen servicio“

“Nice pizzeria in downtown Mountain View! We were interested in dining here to try out their signature deep dish pizzas; but were also impressed with the variety of other pizza styles they had. The thin crust garden was loaded with fresh veggies and feta; and the cornbread deep dish was hot and flavorful! Service was very courteous and helpful! Definitely recommend a stop here!“

“It’s a Greek restaurant. I wanted to get something healthy so I ate a Salad for 5$. It was nice and made me full for my lunch. Packed with healthy lettuce, tomato and other 🥗. The place was super clean. Indoor Outdoor seating both available. The servers were friendly, attentive and hard working. Most of the food is in the range of 12$+ for one person. Attaching pictures for reference.“

“The Hollō Cafe looks like a lovely spot to enjoy a relaxing coffee break or catch up with friends. The cafe has a modern, inviting vibe that makes it a great place to unwind and enjoy some time away from a busy day. It’s the kind of place that appeals to people who appreciate a cozy cafe atmosphere and a casual dining experience. Whether you're stopping by for coffee, a light bite, or a relaxed outing, it’s worth checking out if you're in the area. A charming local cafe to add to your list!“

“Had the Fresh Miami on ciabatta - a sandwich with turkey and *papaya* and *mango* and it was great! And also this place is surprising in a good way because I stopped without really knowing, and ordered without really looking, and was glad I did! I wish there were more non-soda beverage options, but great overall.“

“They have some of the best chimichurri sauce around within a 1hr drive so, worth it. No complaints, service is timely, food is always goods, employees are always on point. If anything try to go early as some of their empanadas do sell out. You can snack for under 10$ or have a full meal for around 20$ Location is great too, indoor and outdoor seating.“

“Incredibly delicious. Friendly atmosphere. Awesome.“

“Korean Beef! <3“

“Had Nick the Greek for the first time today and got the Mediterranean Bowl with Chicken Souvlaki and wow it was fantastic! I'm not the biggest onion fan but even the picked onions mixed with everything tasted bomb 💣. Probably the best Mediterranean cuisine bowl I've ever had.“

“Had such a great experience at Mendocino Farms! The food was fresh, flavorful, and exceeded my expectations. Everything we ordered was delicious, and you can really tell they use quality ingredients. The atmosphere was welcoming and had a great vibe, and the customer service was incredibly friendly and attentive. Special shoutout to Jalen, who checked in on our satisfaction and went above and beyond by letting us try their cookies — such a thoughtful touch that made our visit even more memorable. My only small suggestion would be to clean the tables a bit more regularly during busy times, but overall it was a wonderful experience and I’ll definitely be back!“

“Was excited to try Tony Gemignani’s “Apricot Fields” slice (exclusive to Mountain View), and he did not disappoint. Chalk up another winner that went great with our Cal-Italia, and the Wise Guy. A little Hot Honey and extra fig preserve allowed us to add a custom touch as each desired. Can’t even complain about the wait for a closer Slice House, because I know Tony Respects the Craft too much to rush any location before they are up to the highest standards. Bravo!“

“Best slices in town, pizza always tastes great & super friendly staff“
