Restaurants near Montclaire Park

Cascal continues to be a top notch lunch or dinner spot. The Spanish food is lively and profusely diffuse. While the prices have inched up,so it has in the other fine restaurants in Silicon Valley. I will return!

I was in town visiting family for Christmas, all Assyrian immigrants from Iraq, who are very discerning when it comes to "good food." I've not been here in over 10yr, but it has always been my favorite restaurant. I brought the entire family for lunch on 12/26/24. Carlos was our waiter. We had a table of 14 that included three children under 4yr and three teenagers (who asked for I don't know how many refills). I know; we were a lot. The food was not only exceptional, it came out hot, and it came out quickly. Very impressive. I heard at least 4-5 relatives comment on the hummus being "next level," and let me tell you, that is a HUGE compliment from a family of amazing chefs. Carlos was just a wonderful, effcient, and patient server. I waited tables at the Crow's Nest when I was earning my teaching credential, so I know how hard serving a large (loud, needy) party can be, and he never missed a mark. (I hope you use him to train all your new servers).

The experience was excellent! In the beginning, though, we had to wait for over an hour because it’s Christmas Day! Understandably, nonetheless a bit frustrating. Ty did a good job in serving us! Did not have to wait too long for the beverages. Food was excellent as always! Karina was very very entertaining! Loved every moment! Although I did forget my son’s second refill of Shirley Temple, everything else was just enjoyable!

Our first visit here. The menu is extensive. Dishes we tried very good, seabass with a flavor rich vegetable stew, dayboat scallops with a mushroom risotto. Presentation of the food was gorgeous, including fresh flowers on the plates (orchids this time)!. The interior is beautiful with dramatic light-scaping, tall ceilings, pops of color, yet serene. Table service was attentive. We had a lovely evening and will return.

Very nice experience as always. Ossobuco special was delicious. Nice ambiance. A little piano music in the background added to the atmosphere.
