Best Romantic Restaurants in Portola Valley

This is an outstanding Greek restaurant. The best I have ever been to. Definitely a Michelin-quality. For a few decates I wanted to visit the famed Kokkari Estiatorio in SF but never had a chance. I am happy that they opened this location (sister restaurant) in Palo Alto. Calamari, Octopus, Lamb Chops, and their dessert offerings were all good. Stands out even for Palo Alto. The service quality was excellent as well. My business associate and I had a wonderful dinning experience. Thank you.

Loved the food. The service was the best ever service I’ve ever gotten. We ordered the shrimp starter and two of the lobster with caviar and those were delicious. The salmon and salad with grilled chicken were great. And dessert selection was top notch. The best ever. Highly recommend.

We love the Village Pub. We are loyal guests coming for 15 years. And though we moved away, we make sure we have dinner here whenever we get back to the bay. Dinner and service last night was top notch again. The duck was phenomenal and so was the truffle stuffed chicken. Followed by the always delicious chocolate soufflé and the beignets. Can’t wait to come back

We got a seat at the bar ordered cocktails and small dishes. Everything was uniformly excellent. The barkeeper was knowledgeable and made a beautifully balanced Manhattan. The small dishes recommonded were all tasty and of high quality. Overall the only reason to dock a star is that Nobu is expensive (big surprise). But if you are not cost sensitive, then this is an excellent place for high quality drinks and light dishes. Recommended.

Great food and staff. Best to come on an early weeknight for dinner. Noise can get loud, but the food and experience is worth it. Awesome seasonal dishes thoughtfully prepared and plated.
