Best Cocktail Bars in Mountain View

Sat at the bar for brunch. All the bartenders were very attentive and super nice. Especially Steven. Shout out Steven 💯. Food came out quick after ordering and was delicious. We ordered the eggs benny and the polenta. Both delicious. The only thing I will say is that I wish the eggs Benny had more sauce. But maybe a saucy Benedict is just my preference. I will be coming back for brunch 100%

Abby was great! She took care of our large party and multiple transactions great! The food was good and the drinks were fine. I am more of a tequila drinker and there weren’t many options but everyone else enjoyed the rum drinks.

After 30 years on the east coast during which we made occasional visits to Cafe Pro Bono, my wife and I returned to Palo Alto two years ago and quickly adopted this restaurant as our hands-down favorite SF Bay Area favorite. The menu is sufficiently varied that even at 2 or 3 dinners a week, we never get bored. Owner Akif Aydin and his remarkable waitstaff have become like family—always very welcoming and attentive without being obsequious. Especially important to my wife and me: Our frequent requests to split appetizers and entrees are always honored without question or surcharge. Must try dishes: Susan’s Downfall, salads featuring warm goat cheese, Veal Piccata, and Panna cotta.

Everything was fabulous— our dinner, the service and the ambiance! What a perfect way to spend Christmas Eve! Sekoya is my new favorite restaurant. I already have plans to return in a few days. It’s that good!

Our server was very kind and considerate so without us even asking, he saw our 2 kids and got us 2 ketchups for our 1 order of truffle parmesan fries without our even asking! We came on a Monday so it was pretty quiet. Ambiance in the back where we say was definitely the look of a hotel lobby where you get your breakfast because it’s part of the package. But the food itself was tasty! I’d get take out or eat at the bar, but not sit in the back. We would have done outdoor patio but it was windy.
