Best Restaurants with Private Rooms in Palo Alto

The village pub had a New Year day brunch with a prix fixe menu of 3 courses. For each part of the menu there were many choices. The dishes were excellent. The burrata salad was amazing with the most delicious and delicate burrata. This was a great lunch to begin the new year for a good price!

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.

Outstanding service, 5-6 courses were great and the other 5 not so much. Dessert could use a boost, the chestnut cake was dry and the fruit not the best quality. Great for a first time omakase experience in my backyard! Easy peezy parking, and the ladies who served left a memorable impression.

Always fun and the food is delicious. A lively environment but not too loud. Their salads are very good, and interesting. I don’t feel sad about having eaten a salad at a Mexican restaurant!

Only thing upsetting was they advertise on the website a happy hour that didn't exist, it was one reason we chose the place for our 10 employees
