“Title: A Tranquil Oasis of Culinary ExcellenceRating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Review:Nestled amidst nature's beauty, this restaurant is a true hidden gem. The food is exceptional, the staff is friendly, and the ambiance is enchanting. Despite the occasional parking challenge, every moment spent here is worth it. I'm so impressed that I'm returning with my parents this week! Whether you're a local or a traveler, this place is a must-visit for an unforgettable dining experience. Kudos to the team for their consistent excellence – can't wait to be back!“

“Delicious comfort food, beautifully located. I'm rating the service and atmosphere down since they outsource their ordering process in the restaurant to an app - this makes me use my phone even more and I wonder if next time they also ask me to grill the burger myself.Parking: Fills up on a weekend“

“At first coming in side we were not sure what to get but then we meet Ms Sindy here and she was very friendly and answer my questions about the menu and I ordered a BBQ bacon burger and for my boy a grilled chicken and some fries we love the food and the experience we had here I'm for sure recommend this place if you want a nice burger with fries“

“Fun, casual place for meeting a group. The culinary approach is best described as comfort food, with something for every taste. I chose Lazy Dog to for a family get-together because it's close to our Foster City relatives, has easy parking, and a nice outdoor area that is dog-friendly. We all found something we liked in the menu. My husband really liked the Cuban sandwich, my older daughter loved the Kraft macaroni and cheese (nothing special, obviously, but exactly what kids tend to want), while my other daughter wanted Asian noodles, so we shared the yaki soba (which was delicious). Most importantly, my somewhat picky 92 year old grandmother, who medically needs to make sure she eats enough (but can't always bring herself to), ate her entire portion of teriyaki noodles. The lunch portion was perfect for her--she can't eat too much in one sitting. What I liked most about Lazy Dog was the service. Anthony was really great. Some of the dishes we initially tried ordering were unavailable, so he brought free dessert--sundaes for both my daughters. And they were extra fun: bowls of ice cream with little dishes of chocolate sauce, strawberry sauce, and sprinkles so the girls could make the sundaes themselves. The other staff were also attentive. When the sun got bright, they brought an umbrella, unprompted, to shade my grandmother. There's a deal right now for one small plate for $5, available all day--a bargain.“

“The serving staff are very friendly but lacking a little on the familiarity with the dishes. That's the only nitpick I can give Selby's.The flavor and technique totally justified the respect for Selby's approach to classic fine dining.“

“What a great discovery for me! I was waiting to order a sandwich close by, but it was taking too long. So, I walked over to Big Brothers Burgers and ordered the classic with fries. Wow! It was so huge yet delicious! Great service, and the ambiance was nice too. Highly recommend!“

“My family and I came by 3 weeks ago and they were great. Awesome atmosphere the service was great. The owner was helping out. They make great use of the space. The food was terrific. We ordered two godfather burgers, an impossible burger and sliders. Everything was to order. Having an impossible option was awesome. We can't wait to come back. I think I will ask for my bun toasted but other than that I have no complaints.“

“Great smash burgers for me, fast friendly and service and great sides...love the coleslaw and the mac-n-cheese. My kids love the chicken tenders and mac-n-cheese but these are adult friendly as well. Always able to grab food and table and beer and get the family fed! Hard to find a spot the whole family loves.“

“My husband got the Chop pastrami salad, which is always good and this time I got the shrimp tacos. Perfect amount and should've asked for some spicy sauce or jalapeños because it could've used a little kick. All in although, service was great what else can you ask for!?“

“The Refuge is known for its pastrami sandwiches and excellent rotating craft beer selection. Now, I’m from New York City, the land of Katz’s Deli pastrami sandwiches, so my bar is pretty high, and it would be blasphemy for me to even compare the two, but I have to hand it to them, it’s a pretty spectacular pastrami sandwich. Highly recommend.“

“Delicious pizza. I got the Brotherly Love and I was impressed. I called in my order and arrived 15 minutes after. Plenty of parking. Clean spot. Will be back to try other things on the menu.Parking: More than 10 spotsWheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“There's not much to explain! Always the best option for the price! Clean environment, prepared staff and wonderful snacks! I always come back, once a week, for the rest of my lifeParking: Great, but sometimes you have to waitKid-friendliness: There is no children's area! But there are books for paintingWheelchair accessibility: Access and spaces for wheelchair users“

“Stumbled on this place quite by accident - since its not a very visible place. Was surprised by how good and fresh the good was, and awesome shakes. Has become our regular go-to burger joint, and on a nice sunny day the outdoor seating is perfect with the great food.“

“The atmosphere, service and wines were amazing I wish I were able to say my Mediterranean pasta was good but wasn’t; I believe they use cooked shrimp in the dish and if not mistaken it said “prawns” which is why I had ordered it in the first place, the shrimp was absolutely overcooked and trust me I know my shrimp since my sis uses cooked shrimp I know the awful texture and would never expect it to be served in this amazing restaurant.I absolutely will go back and hopefully they will use fresh shrimp and try the dish again.“

“I loved the atmosphere! Comfortable couches, electric outlets, the piano! Food is alright: the salmon pasta was huge and the salmon yummy, the BLT sandwich had over fried bacon that was hard to chew, the pastry tasted good but was cold and a bit soggy. The Matcha latte used the syrup instead of actual matcha :(It's not bad for a college cafeteria but the prices are not justified“

“The donuts are better than the fritters. The apple fritter was good but very very oily and very sweet. Sandwiches are great. I've been here a couple times and they have messed up my order each time in minor ways - one time my side order was wrong and another time my coffee was the wrong size. Otherwise they're fast and have good friendly service. Parking lot gets crowded fast.“

“I went last month in this very cousy donut and breakfast place; I’m surprised ? for the flavor in the donuts and in the breakfast ; I will recommend to everyone who loves donuts ? and great attention for the people who passionately work in there, thank you ?.“

“It was absolutely delicious. My only pick is the cost of the food, but what do I expect as a visitor of Stanford. Anyways, I ordered a Philly cheesesteak sandwich, 5/5.The restaurant feels a lot like a street food place; a bit more hidden from the eyes of the public.“

“We were in and out in 20ish minutes. Busy time, busy place. The animal fries were perfect and that is the measure of any In-n-Out. The double-double burger was balanced and very good too. The strawberry milkshake was thick and rich in flavor. Everything I asked for was delivered. Great job!“

“What a fantastic find and worth a visit! The ambiance is simple, very clean and incredibly friendly. The food is amazing we all had completely different dishes from pancakes to lunch to Bulgogi, all so impressive. Our meal was topped off with complimentary watermelon and grape dessert, what a wonderful touch. I haven't seen this special kind of service in the bay at a cafe. Excellent food and service!“

“Great place to come after work to unwind. Happy hour is great and how can we resist the goat cheese and pepper jelly spread; it is addictive and we order it every time. They old fashioneds with or without the candied bacon are awesome.Our tea toddler friends seem to be satisfied with the mock tails and the ginger beer. Food wise, they have a quite a spread of offerings and when I'm in my vegetarian mode, I get the beet balls with spaghetti squash. The servings are big and can be split as they're good enough for two.“

“Best F'n cheeseburger I have had in quite sometime. Reasonably priced but like gourmet. You can choose how you'd like them cooked and they do it perfectly. Mine was medium rare and incredibly juicy. Fries were outstanding and you can have a cold beer if you'd like. I heard that the milkshakes are amazing too so maybe next time I will try that.Came on Leap Day after running an errand and it was worth the stop. Would definitely make the trek back to Menlo Park for this gem. Give 'em some love!!Parking: If the parking is full, there are lots incredibly close you can use.“

“This was another adventure for dinner thanks to a Yelp search. I didn't realize the menu concept, or I missed it while checking out the menu online. But, I am glad that it all worked out.Visiting Belmont, we decided to choose this restaurant. I loved that they had hot dogs, sausages, and hamburgers. I am not vegetarian, but there were quite a few options for those who are not meat eaters.As we entered, I heard talking, laughter and the football game. The person who took our order shared with me his suggestions and I went for them. I had the chili cheese tots and the Holy Aoli burger. Didn't realize that all burgers are sliders. My burger was actually 4 sliders! One patty with 4 Hawaiian rolls as buns...yum. I asked for extra green onions on my chili tots, which were plentiful. My mother in love ordered their special Thanksgiving sausage, and my husband had the Reservoir Hog. I yell you, the menu is unique as it is good. Who would have thought that no hormone or antibiotic added meats could be reasonable priced and tasty. I appreciate the relaxed atmosphere and our ability to grab our own condiments, too.“

“The traditional bánh mì is surprisingly good. Very happy with it. I wouldn't expect it to be so delicious and authentic from what I thought is a donut store. The brown sugar milk tea should have more brown sugar syrup but overall, I'll order from this place again.“

“Elvis for Lunch! Pliny draft beer! First Wednesday of the month! FUN, Friendly crowd sang & danced as we had delicious Fries, Chili, Pulled Pork & coleslaw- Salads ? good!Parking: Small lot, plenty of street parkingKid-friendliness: Family friendly with kid menu items! Decor is makes for. Great game of “I Spy”Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of access- accommodating respectful, friendly customers.“

“This a review of the Taiwanese Eats, part of a take out only place near RWC Costco. The purple rice Fan Tuan are great and the pig’s ears are problem the best in the Bay Area the at they slice it thin and with great sauce. The bento boxes are decent, but order from here for the fan tuan and Pg’s ears! Negligible parking, you just pick up so most people just do a quick wait on the street.“

“I've been eating here for years. I moved away and was craving the tuna melt. It's one of my favorite sandwiches to order. I was happy to see that they were still busy and the food is still good. My husband had a cheeseburger, and that was delicious, too.Parking: They are located in a busy area and parking can be difficult, depending on when you visit. We went on a Saturday for lunch and parked a few blocks and walked.“

“If you're looking for something a little more elevated than in-n-out but not so elevated that it breaks your bank, Gott's Roadside is the perfect fit! We were craving burgers and milkshakes after a hike with our dogs so we dropped by for a quick bite. The line to order food was pretty short but I think waiting for food itself took a little longer as the family before us had a massive order. We were able to find a table outside which was great because it was nice and sunny out. We ordered the double cheeseburger, green chile cheeseburger, fries, vanilla shake, and two unsalted patties for our dogs.We thoroughly enjoyed everything that we ordered! The burger was hot and juicy, fries were salty and crisp, and the dogs really enjoyed their patties. We will definitely be back to try out more items on the menu! Those onion rings look fantastic.“

“Stopped by three times during my week stay in Palo Alto. Chill, laid-back bar with Pliny on tap. Why try anywhere else when you found something right up your alley? Will be back next time my travels bring me to Stanford. Didn’t have food but looks surprisingly good.“

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting Freewheel, and I must say, it was an experience worth savoring. As a craft beer enthusiast, I was drawn in by the promise of a quality Hazy IPA, and I left with not only a contented palate but also a newfound appreciation for their culinary prowess.Let's start with the star of the show – the Hazy IPA. Freewheel has truly mastered the art of crafting a Hazy IPA that's a symphony of hops and malt. The beer poured with a beautiful, hazy golden hue and boasted a delightful aroma that hinted at the tropical and citrus notes within. Each sip was a journey through layers of flavor, from the initial burst of juicy fruits to the subtle undertones of pine. It's evident that the brewers here take pride in their craft, delivering a well-balanced and memorable brew that will keep me coming back for more.Now, let's talk about the food. The buffalo chicken sandwich was a revelation. The chicken was perfectly cooked, with a crispy exterior that gave way to tender, succulent meat inside. The buffalo sauce had just the right amount of heat, providing a zesty kick without overpowering the other flavors. The sandwich was artfully assembled with fresh lettuce, tomatoes, and a hint of blue cheese – a combination that elevated the dish to a gourmet level.What sets Freewheel apart is the seamless integration of their beer and food offerings. The staff was knowledgeable and eager to recommend beer pairings for the menu items. The synergy between the Hazy IPA and the buffalo chicken sandwich was particularly noteworthy – each bite complemented by a sip of the refreshing brew, creating a harmonious dining experience.The ambiance of the brewery added to the overall enjoyment. The rustic yet modern décor, combined with the hum of conversation and the occasional clink of glasses, created a convivial atmosphere that encourages patrons to linger and savor the moment.In conclusion, Freewheel is a gem for both beer aficionados and food enthusiasts. The Hazy IPA and buffalo chicken sandwich showcase the commitment to excellence that permeates every aspect of this establishment. I'll certainly be returning to explore more of their offerings and to bask in the delightful marriage of craft beer and culinary artistry. Cheers to Freewheel for a memorable experience!“

“Great local diner where customers and staff know each other. Good simple, tasty food and great service. Country potatoes done well without unnecessary added extras so safe for my gluten free diet. My husband had the eggs florentine and enjoyed them thoroughly. Highly recommended. Great start to the day.“

“Food is great, as always. Helpful and nice personnel. Service time was a little late to me but as an overall it was good!Parking: There are no bike racks to park. At least I couldn't find one.Kid-friendliness: Some kids and a lot of noise but the service personnel had it under control and were helpful.“

“Went for lunch today and it wasn't too busy at noon so we were first in line to order and only one other couple behind us. Take note that because Paly High School is across the street at ~12:20 the kids came pouring into the restaurant. The line to order was now almost at the door.Our lunch was really good, we had a fried chicken sandwich and a steak sandwich made with a flank steak. The steak was a lot bigger than the roll.“

“A hidden gem for amazing, unique Filipino sandwiches for $10. Zero-wait made to order burgers that are worth the trip. Pork Longganisa - super juicy, aromatic and tender. Probably the best pork patty I've ever had. Unlike the bistek, the flavors here are classic and familiar. It's a solid sandwhich that I would universally recommend. Bistek Burger - I would consider this the specialty item of this food truck. The beef burger is incredibly juicy, and best enjoyed while it's piping hot. The special sauce is the star of the show, with a slight tartness for balance and incredible depth of flavor with a calamansi-forward accents. The burger is bold, assertive, and super unique. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to try something new. At $10 a burger, the food is priced really aggressively. Whether it is to attract early customers, or make a competitive dent in the inflation-driven price hikes of other vendors, this small, local business is offering a great deal! I would take advantage while they are still low-key. It's only a matter of time before it really takes off.“

“We usually eat next door at Bagel Street Cafe during the day and sometimes get a beer at Grill House. The bartender was cool because he used to let me bring a pint glass to the outdoor seating area. We prefer sitting outside because this is our midpoint during our bicycle rides. This is my first time eating at Grill House. I came here because Riley's hot food self station was closed at 7:30pm. I ordered a cheeseburger with garlic fries $20. It came out in about 10 minutes. It tasted OK. The bun was really dry and they put too much mustard on it. It tasted sour. A better option would be garlic aioli sauce or even plain mayo. Red onions would have made this burger 2x better but it was not included. The garlic fries needed more garlic taste. No garlic burn here. Service was excellent. Good job crew at Grill House.“

“JIMMY V'S!!! One of my FAVORITE cafes to visit on Stanford Campus - they serve the most delicious breakfasts, lunch foods, and smoothies / shakes / drinks. Many of their foods that I have enjoyed include: Athlete Omelet, Norcal Scramble, Huevos Rancheros, Stanford Panini, Chicken Chestnut Salad Melt, and Olympian and Cardinal smoothies! Everything is so on point. All their omelets, paninis, sandwiches, smoothies, everything. I also always come back to the Olympian smoothie, which features apple juice, strawberry, banana, raspberry, peach, and low-fat yogurt. The people at Jimmy V's are literally some of the friendliest and warmest I've ever met - I always see them smiling and making conversation and connections with everyone. The inside of the Sports Cafe is lively with a strong community feel and Stanford school spirit, and it is also busy with students, professors, athletes - you name it! The red walls feature quotes like "Passion is Your Greatest Asset", "You Are Never Wrong To Do The Right Thing", and "Teams That Eat Together Play Together Win Together". Jimmy V's also has multiple HD TVs all around the cafe with different sports channels on. In addition, Jimmy V's has a huge outdoors seating area as well, with both sun umbrellas and natural shade from the large green trees. Jimmy V's is one of the best cafe's ever!!! I have loved everything I've ordered from them so far, and I can't wait to try more. Jimmy V's is also the perfect place for any kind of gathering - with friends, with professors, with sports teammates, or on your own! I am not surprised that it is one of the most well-loved, frequented, and beautiful cafés on campus. I would definitely recommend enjoying food from Jimmy V's!!!“

“Always a tasty burger and fries. Today I ordered the Truffle Burger and added lettuce, with a side of fries and can of Sprite. They offered sauces and gladly shared some good BBQ sauce to dip the fries, and a few pickles to sample. Quick and affordable, Konjoe Burger has always been a good spot. Plus, solid service.“

“My husband and I just spent five weeks in Asia on our honeymoon. Lou Ann to San Francisco I needed comfort food. Their pizza is absolutely fantastic! Only about 15 minutes away from the airport, 5 minutes away from airport Hilton.Go for the Aldo special it’s crispy in the crust is amaze balls!“

“Been here twice now, the fries have been solid both times so always get those.We've tried the Chicago, Italian, and Kraut dogs, and the cheesesteak sandwich.Chicago dog is the best of the 3. Cheese steak is a good size. I wish they toasted their buns, everything was soft but I like crispy edges. Their milkshakes tastes like it's made from real ice cream and apple pie slices are large! The pie was cold so I don't recommend if you're craving hot apple pie right away. Luckily I live near by and we were able to reheat the pie and enjoy it at home“

“Absolutely destroyed a plate of Blueberry pancakes. Server was an absolute bro and I think my life is better having eaten here today.Parking: Lots of parking spots.Kid-friendliness: Lots of families dining here plus plenty of high chairs.Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs required to enter the building.“

“Can you find a cheaper burger and fries? Absolutely. But here you get a premium burger, exactly how you want it. Fries are fresh, hot, and crispy. Choose your own adventure soda machine. And peanuts in the shell. What more could you ask for?“

“My favorite item on the Carl Jr. menu is the Western Bacon Cheeseburger. The Carl's Jr. Redwood City location is very spacious, clean and usually not too busy. I hope this Carl location never goes out of business because nearby is In/Out Burger and Chick-fil-A.“

“Food was prepared as we waited. That is y they get 5 stars. Fast food doesnt mean not fresh. The cashier was a kind lady. She asked if we needed any thing, doubled checked once again. Soda was bubbly. Sandwich was great. Its just as good as ever. ?“
