- SSusanVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •144 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe were 5 women and we all had salads. The kitchen catered to our individual requests for modification such as dressing on the side or no onions or bell peppers The salads were very fresh and the grilled chicken was hot and moist - not always the case in other establishments. We did wait about 30 minutes for the salads to arrive. Sundance serves warm, fresh sour dough bread wit both butter and olive oil and balsamic vinegar. We had a birthday in our group and the waiter brought a complimentary slice of mud pie with a candle in it. We split it among us and it was delicious.More infoSundance The SteakhousePrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Palo Alto•4.8
- AAbbyVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoMy boyfriend and I had a lovely dinner at Roja the day after Valentine’s Day. We were warmly greeted into the restaurant and sat at a beautiful table. James brought us over some sparkling rosé.  We had the cauliflower, Gulf shrimp, potato terrine, and the agnolotti, which was our favorite.  We will be going back for the food and the friendly service.

- DDanielSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review4.0Dined 3 days agoNice restaurant, food was great, food service (timeliness) was good, but not the best table-side (waiter service). I could best describe it as uninterested and distracted. Maybe an off night, not sure. The owner (as maitre d for the night), however, was very friendly and helpful.More infoCetrellaPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• Los Altos•4.7
- EEllenSan Francisco Bay Area •7 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoValentines Day dinner on the enclosed back patio. The service was exceptional, especially for a very busy night. The ambiance was fine given that I reserved fairly late and got a table on the back patio instead of the main dining room. The patio is very nice in cold weather, warm enough and protected from the wind. It is also pretty quiet. The food was great as always. We were not rushed. Altogether a great experience on a night that can be a nightmare for restaurant owners and workers.More infoUrfa Bistro - MediterraneanPrice: Moderate• Mediterranean• Los Altos•4.8
