Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Palo Alto

I had a truly delightful experience today! From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed by the most polite and gracious hosts. I had initially owed them an apology for my first comment about their new opening, but they handled it with such calmness and appreciation. Our dining experience was exceptional. We were escorted to our table, where our server, Suzanna, provided outstanding service. She was incredibly warm, always smiling, and gave us excellent vegetarian recommendations. Every dish she suggested was a hit! We absolutely loved the buttermilk pani puri, BBQ mushrooms, and the flavorful cabbage dish served with romali roti. I only wish they had jackfruit biryani on the menu for vegetarians! Beyond the food, the restaurant itself was impeccably clean and elegantly designed. It’s a perfect spot for a refined and enjoyable dining experience.

Amazing food! Loved the Yellowtail Jalapeño Sashini. Miso Cod- delicious. Still craving it! Wagyu - so good. I got two ounces - wish I had ordered 3!! The spicy tuna roll- shocking good for a seemingly simple dish. Gracious service. Will definitely go back.

Excellent selection of authentic Turkish dishes, well executed and delivered with beautiful simplicity. Very gracious but efficient and professional and attentive service. Ambiance is lively and we loved the Turkish music at a level that still allowed for conversation at the table. Really enjoyed our evening and will be back!

We have never experienced a better night out. Everyone from the host greeting us with a warm smile to David the manager introducing himself and offering his services as needed to our excellent server Hannah was a top notch employee. We felt like royalty as they took such great care of us. The food, the service and the atmosphere were all better than we could have dreamed of. You have to have the smoking manhattan from the bar. It was so tasty and the present was superb. If you are fortunate enough to have Hannah serving you, I promise you will have the best waitress in the business. We eat out often and over the 3 decades of doing so, I have never seen anyone better at what they do. We can’t wait to go back.

We had a wonderful omakase experience at the sushi counter at Robin. Each dish was unique and truly delicious. The flavors were sophisticated yet not overly complicated. The seafood was so fresh and perfectly cut/prepared. And our sushi shef and his assistant were welcoming and very professional. The coconut milk soft serve with sour cherry sauce and caramelized topping (I can’t remember that detail) was the perfect ending. Can’t wait to return
