“Great food and even better service! The Buck Breakfast had some much flavor and there are options to substitute your eggs and sausage for vegan alternatives. The Huevos Rancheros was a hearty made to order meal. You can definitely taste fresh quality ingredients. Our server was very attentive and friendly.“

“We have been here several times now. It is a cozy and relaxed restaurant. The menu is somewhat limited however everything we have tried has been delicious. The staff are very pleasant. We will be back.“

“It was very nice. Food was great and atmosphere wonderful!“

“I went to celebrate my friends birthday. We had a delicious vodka cocktail (actually 2 each!) coconut shrimp and pork belly appetizers. And we're too full for another dish! Except of course a shared dessert. It was sort of like French toast with pistachios as part of the crust. Over blueberries and very light whipped cream. And of course,I forgot to mention the milk bread. (Got one loaf to go to take home to BF who wolfed it down). Super place. Super service. Super food.“

“Chef Marcus’ dishes are full of flavor & fresh ingredients that make for a spectacular culinary experience. 😋“

“We had an absolutely lovely experience here! Came for my boyfriend’s birthday, everyone was friendly and attentive. Fantastic high end ambience. The food was almost too beautiful to eat and every one of us thoroughly enjoyed our entrees. One of our guests said it was the best spaghetti he had ever had! The mushroom risotto was perfection. I had the Chilean sea bass and WOW! The salmon was also amazing. The other two guests had roasted chicken and hangar steak… I didn’t get to try them but they looked amazing and everyone cleaned their plate even though we were full lol! We will absolutely be back. Highly recommend!! 5 stars ⭐️“

“Lovely spot. Definitely a bit tucked in and hidden so I think it’s mostly meant to serve the folks in the business park. That being said I found it quite easily with help of the google street view image. The server was a lovely woman, definitely great service! The food was delicious. Quiet space with simple but nice decor.“

“Great food and fast friendly service. A great place for burgers.“

“Food was delish. Only issue was bones in my halibut. Beverage Service & table busing slow at times. Had to ask a couple of times for refills. One refill was poured into the wrong glass so soda and ice tea got mixed up but it was corrected. Avocado tempura appetizer was amazing. Desserts were delicious also crème brûlée and chocolate decadent cake. Hubby filet perfect, pizza large. Will definitely go back.“

“Great just like my mom’s homemade cooking Carrot cake moist. Good. Coffee. Waiters are Courteous“

“We come to this restaurant regularly and it never disappoints. We were there again for Thanksgiving with a group of friends, and it was perfect as always. They offered their regular menu along with a Thanksgiving special. The turkey was outstanding: perfectly cooked, flavorful, and incredibly moist.
Everything here is consistently delicious, with a great range of options, and the prices remain very reasonable (which has become rare these days!). The food, the atmosphere, the service and the reliability keep us coming back. Highly recommend!“

“The morning mocha paired perfectly with the pastries and the chicken sandwich, all packed with great taste and very filling.

“BJ's is consistently good and the service today with Aja T. was outstanding. Our only complaint was that our eyes were bigger than our stomachs, so we brought home a LOT of food. And that's really NOT a problem! Good food, good atmosphere, reasonable prices, a great place for a group, and great service. Love having BJ's in the neighborhood.“

“Wonderful neighborhood restaurant.“

“I came in during a busy Sunday afternoon with a large group and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate us. Armando was our server and too went above and beyond for us as well, evening splitting a complicated check to us . The food was outstanding, the pies to die for. Really impressed an thankful for the outstanding food and service“

“Best place to go after the holidays, nice service, excellent food and very tasty wine …“

“The food was delicious and was generously portioned. I ordered the Yahoo!! which is an open-face Mexican-style omelette. The omelette included broccoli and celery which were unique but tasty omelette toppings. The celery was cut into very small pieces so it wasn’t overwhelming.

The service was quick and attentive. We were also seated right away for brunch on a Saturday at around 11am.

There were so many good-looking options on the menu that everyone in our party had trouble deciding what to order. 😂 We will definitely be back to try more of their dishes!“

“Enjoyed their Hamburger and fish & Chips Fries are excellent. Lovely surroundings, the ducks enjoyed the pool.“

“Very nice cafe, everything is fresh and delicious.

Burata peach salad is heavenly! Thank you!“

Whether you’re ordering a classic favorite or trying something new from the menu, it’s the kind of meal that leaves you fully satisfied.

The service deserves special mention as well. The staff is friendly, attentive, and genuinely kind, without ever feeling rushed or pushy. They take the time to make sure you’re comfortable and enjoying your meal, which makes the whole experience even better.

“My recent stay at the Hilton Garden Inn was nothing short of fantastic. From the moment I arrived, the staff was welcoming and attentive, ensuring I felt right at home. The room was clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything I needed for a relaxing stay.

The highlight of my stay, however, was the exceptional service at the hotel bar. José, the bartender, was amazing! Not only did he craft delicious drinks, but his friendly and genuine approach made every visit to the bar feel personal. His knowledge of cocktails and attention to detail were impressive, and he went out of his way to ensure guests were taken care of.

Overall, the hospitality at the Hilton Garden Inn exceeded my expectations, and the staff, particularly José, made the experience memorable. I’ll definitely be returning!“

“First time here, fairly busy. Lots of free parking. There were a few employees, but they aren't greeting anyone who walked in. Not sure if they take orders in person, but there are kiosks to order your food & they are easy to use for ordering. The food is good, made to order. We had to clean our own table, I didn't see any employees cleaning tables, they should work on that because it was busy. This place is open late night, I think 3AM some nights. You can eat inside or outside, there's heaters outside. And a bathroom for customers.“

“I go here almost every time I visit Mariners Point. Great food at a good price. My friends and I really like the taquitos, smash burger, chicken strips, and the tater tots. I like spicy food so I always ask for jalapeños on my burger and they put some really good fresh ones. Stop by the bar inside for a draft beer and you have the perfect way to end a day of golfing.“

“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.“

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

“Awesome! Good food and service I will be back!!“

“Favorite family place...kids love it! ❤️“

“The burrito was okay. The good is the size — it’s pretty big. The bad part is the taste for me. The chicken had too much BBQ sauce and wasn’t fresh I think. I didn’t finish it because it was very mid. Nachos were good. I think if you are in between choices at that place, get something but burrito because my colleagues got other food and liked it more.“

“I'm usually very skeptical of these type of chains, but my god everything I had here was excellent. Top to bottom, no complaints. And the fact that you can also get a VERY JUICY AND DELICIOUS SPICY FRIED CHICKEN SANDWICH......... hell yea.“

“My favorite restaurant in Burlingame food is always fresh and not salty I love it 🥰 service is super nice“

“Halal Chicken!! Also: the food is good and the staff is kind.

Inside knowledge: you can ask for a tray at the front.
Con: Sensory Overload at all times.
Suggestions: sit on balcony and/or noise cancelling earbuds.
Recommendations: Sensory friendly area with no or limited noise especially for individuals that are auditory defensive.“

“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.“

“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.“
