Best Lunch Restaurants in Menlo Park

Great food and staff. Best to come on an early weeknight for dinner. Noise can get loud, but the food and experience is worth it. Awesome seasonal dishes thoughtfully prepared and plated.

All four of us in the dinner party feel the same as the answers I gave in the ratings.

The restaurant itself is really cute, and the staff were very accommodating for our birthday reservation. They provided a great dessert plate for our daughter and her friends to share for her birthday and the staff led a great happy birthday song to add to the celebration. I miss the big appetizer plate that they used to offer - that seems to have been taken off the menu. My husband and I enjoyed the branzino and crab fried rice - we felt the two dishes went well together. My daughter and her friends ordered a variety of dishes as well - their absolute favorite was the Seau Rhong Hai (Snake River Wagyu flank steak). It's helpful that they highlight particular ingredients that people might be allergic to - my husband is allergic to peanuts and we are both averse to cilantro, so it helped to pick out appropriate items and staff were accommodating in removing cilantro from the dishes. My husband's typically very weary of Thai food because of possible peanut exposure, and we were very thankful there were no issues and it really allowed him to feel like he could enjoy the food. Definitely anticipate spending about $40-50/person + tips - great experience overall.

Beef Bourginon and onion soup and fondue excellent. Chocolate fondant cake served cold not warm as usual. Also this dessert used to come with ice cream. Server did not provide list of specials or ask if we wanted dessert or coffee prior to bringing check. Nice ambience as usual.

First time trying this place out and it beat our expectations. We had the deviled eggs, coconut rice, fiery chicken and curry chicken which were all excellent. Highly recommend this place and look forward to going back
