Restaurants near The Stanford Shopping Center

Great service, ambiance, and overall experience! We split some starters (the bread and veggies for the burrata was overcharred but the dish itself was perfect), and had the steak sandwich, Chinese chicken salad, Roasted Chicken, and Zambrini. Every dish was flavorful. Surprisingly the parking wasn’t as difficult as I had feared. I would definitely return. Just make sure to book well in advance!

Overall, excellent. Just a couple comments: First, the appetizers came out very quickly (a good thing TM) but they beat our initial drinks (wine and beer) by a good 10 minutes. Second, I ordered the filet mignon "medium" because I had been at a Las Vegas steakhouse recently where "medium rare" was barely warm meat. But here the steak came out cooked truly medium and on a very hot plate. So if you like medium rare, you can trust them to do it right, I think. No complaints about how they cooked my steak; just saying I was too conservative in how I ordered it. All food was excellent; service very attentive. It's a louder place but by the end, it had emptied out and quieted down. We were there 6:30 to 9:00 p.m. on a Thursday. If it wasn't quite so expensive, we'd go more often.

Fantastic as always!! Such a special Place to have lunch with friends

We had a group lunch at Pacific Catch Stanford Shopping Center. We were greeted when we walked in and seated immediately. Our server brought us our menus and water within a few minutes. He was knowledgeable, professional, and personable. The guacamole and chips appetizer was fresh and delicious. I enjoyed the double rainbow sushi bowl (recommended by the server). Friends at the table liked the spicy green curry salmon bowl and the mixed catch fish and chips. All in all we enjoyed our time!

When in the Palo Alto area, True Food Kitchen is my go to for excellent food. I prefer outdoor dining; however, since it was evening, we were seated indoors. I always find indoors more noisy; but my guests were able to have a great conversation. Our waiter was just attentive enough and our food was delicious. We will return.
