- GGlennvipSan Francisco Bay Area •286 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoMeyhouse Palo Alto is an excellent restaurant for Turkish Mediterranean food. The food was really exceptional. They make their own delicious creamy yogurt which they use in dishes. So if you enjoy yogurt, you will love this place and they have unique salads and excellent fish on the menu. The food is super healthy and delicious. I definitely want to go back for more. They have a full bar and excellent Turkish wines. The restaurant is also nicely designed. But it can get a little noisy in some places where there might be larger groups.More infoMeyhouse Palo AltoPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• Palo Alto•4.8
- TThierryvipSan Francisco Bay Area •17 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoMy wife and I treated ourselves to a wonderful dinner at Reposado. The shrimp empanadas and guacamole were delightful, and the cochinita pibil was rich and delicious. I strongly recommend Reposado for an elevated experience of Mexican food.More infoReposado RestaurantPrice: Expensive• Mexican• Palo Alto•4.6
- OTOpenTable DinervipSan Francisco Bay Area •4 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoThe food and service at Nobu can’t be beat. Every dish, spot on perfect. Our server & team were phenomenal. He curated our food selections & really nailed it. Food portions are small. Works for me but gets expensive trying to satiate a young guy. I’d love to see the “tacos” be sized for at least two bites. We ate in the atrium area at Nobu Palo Alto. It is probably lovely in the summer when you can see the garden. On a chilly, rainy November night, it felt a bit like being in the overflow area. Could perhaps be made more inviting with a little attention.More infoNobu Palo AltoPrice: Very Expensive• Japanese• Palo Alto•4.5
- NNamrataSan Francisco Bay Area •9 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 19, 2024I hadn’t been to Evvia in years and it was so great to go back. My friend and I shared a bunch of appetizers: meatballs, octopus, roasted beets and the butternut squash. The octopus was fantastic as were the meatballs. We each had a glass of wine and the whole meal was $100. Will definitely do that again.More infoEvviaPrice: Expensive• Mediterranean• Palo Alto•4.8
