I migliori ristoranti vicino a me in zona Menlo Park, CA

I've been going to Left Bank sporadically over the past 20 years, and it has had its upswings and downswings. On this recent visit, it appears to be on an upswing: Everything we ordered was delicious, including the Petrale Sole, Boeuf Bourgignon and Citron tart. The restaurant wasn't crowded, and our service was attentive but not smothering. Prices were fair. I won't wait so long to go back next time.

We had been looking for our new “go to” Italian place in the Bay Area after a few of them closed down, so we tried Che Fico and weren’t disappointed. Everything was delicious from start to finish. Easy parking in the underground car park was a bonus too.

They went out of their way to help us even though they were short staffed that day, made sure we had a table that worked for a slightly disabled friend, and checked on us just often enough without interrupting us. The gnocchi was amazing!

Our server was amazing - I can’t believe I don’t remember her name. She was warm, just the right level of attentive, and timed our dishes perfectly. Our food was very good. Prices were steep even for the area but that wasn’t wholly unexpected. Only complaint is the way they have the tables placed - I had someone kicking or noticeably bumping my chair every 5 mins (for some reason the area between our table and the one next to us was treated like a thoroughfare by both staff and diners alike). That really detracted from the ambiance of a place that charges $30 for fish and chips.

Burma Love was a nice place to have a business meeting within the first 30 minutes of opening. By the end of lunch, it was difficult to hear conversation with my clients through the dining room noise. The lunch deal with two appetizers, entree, choice of rice and optional dessert was ideal for my colleagues. Everyone was quite pleased with the meal. Just wish that there was better noise absorption to make it quieter inside.
