“Awesome food. Service was friendly but lacking. I think they need more servers.Came here on Mothers Day. Sadly took way too long to get our drinks. (30plus minutes) and they ran out of two of their four main course offerings. Bummer. Thankfully our kind waitress tried extra hard to get my daughter something she would enjoy being hers and my husbands and her choices were not available.The ambiance is beautiful inside and out. Food was outstanding so made up for the missteps.Would come again. Hoping service and offerings will be stellar next time. :).”

“I live on the east bay but work in the peninsula. Was craving birra tacos and found them on yelp. My husband has food allergies but was willing to try the chicken soft tacos. I brought everything home across the 92. He didn't have an allergic reaction! He loved them so much, he asked me to buy them again afterwards work the next day! The birra tacos were delicious as well! The consume (dipping) is really good! Everything was wrapped nicely and still warm by the time I got home. The second day I tried a chicken burrito and that was delicious as well! I highly recommend!”

Brew Coffee and Bakery 3176 Middlefield Rd, Redwood City Coffee Shops • $

“I came here on a Thursday afternoon (~12 PM) and stayed here for a few hours to do work on my laptop. The place is relatively spacious with comfortable seats and outlets. Throughout my time there, the place was almost always completely empty. Because I was one of the only people there, the barista brought my drink right to the table I was sitting at, which was very kind. Though the name suggests they are a coffee shop, I was surprised to see the big menu at the front was for boba. I asked the cashier for the coffee menu and they had it on the back of a smaller menu at the counter. I ordered a hot chai latte. It was a big too sweet for my taste, but nonetheless quite good. This would be a great place to come to on the weekends when other coffee shops are usually full/crowded. Great place to sit and relax!”

Dipping them in the house sauce was the move. 4-25/5This review is just based on the burger and fries, as they do have other options that we didn't try yet.Service:Ordered at the counter, took a seat, and they drop the food off. Fast and friendly service. 5/5Ambiance:Casual, welcoming, almost seems like a BBQ joint but brighter.Summary:Great food, great people, chill vibes.”

There is a front and back entrance and pickup is on the left side of the front entrance when you walk in about halfway through the restaurant. (Saw many people confused by this) They have many dishes that are classic takeaway options. We didn't try anything too spicy but will have to when I return. We ordered the double mushroom chicken, veggie and brown rice fried rice, pan fried pork dumplings, and scallion pancakes( who doesn't love fried dough?) . Everything was tasty and as expected.

Diner Japonica 593 Woodside Rd, Redwood City Japanese • $

“I love places like this. This is a small mom and pop shop, with a old school sign, no frills, and the food speaks for itself. I wasn't really sure what to eat today, but was in the area and did some searching on what was available. I've seen this place come up before on my searches, but don't think it was open at the time. It's tucked away in a small shopping center near Dunkin which I've driven by many times, but easy to miss. Not a lot of parking, but luckily I came early. Just a heads up, it's currently take out only which is surprising. I thought most places opened back up indoor dining, but to be honest, I'm not sure if this place every really offered it. It's pretty small inside, maybe room for a few tables if they wanted to, but being take out only doesn't bother me. I took the photo in the car, but ended up waiting to get home to try it other than sneaking a tonkotsu piece while hot to get a good feel for the texture in case the container steamed it. I was greeted by a friendly women who I asked about what to get. I am not a picky eater at all and willing to try anything that the staff recommends as their favorite. She suggested the Bento box which was what I was considering (other than the omurice, but wasn't available. I only chose the Sashimi option since the pictures looked fairly good, but she recommended the pork tonkatsu and the teriyaki salmon (which is something I would never really order). The order also came with a side salad which isn't in the photo. The Pork tonkatsu has a light breading with a slight crispiness too it. it wasn't greasy at all and had some good flavor especially mixed with the katsu sauce. The sauce was tangy and not too sweet. The sashimi came with 2 pieces of salmon, tuna, and i believe the 3rd was mackerel. For a non sushi spot and bento box item, it was pretty good. It was a $2 upcharge and something I would get again for sure. The Salmon teriyaki, as mentioned before, is not something I ever would order, but was glad I did. It was flaky, tender, and moist. The sauce was a nice complement to it. I'm glad I found this little place and hope to come back again when I'm in the area. They don't have a large window for being open since they close between lunch and dinner, but for a small place with very few staff, I get being closed when it's not busy. $21 for a 3 item bento with sashimi is a great deal considering the prices on everything else.”

Taco Bell 2693 El Camino Real, Redwood City Fast Food • $

“Obviously, this is still a Taco Bell and so the food is never going to be considered gourmet, but I am giving five stars for the consistent quality and service of this particular location. Every other Taco Bell that I have been to always end up making some kind of mistake, whether it is forgetting to put something in an item or just messing up the order entirely. Due to working nearby, I have frequented this establishment and my order has always been correct. The food here, at least for me, always comes out hot and fresh. This is especially apparent when I order the Nacho Fries or Fiesta Potatoes, which often comes out cold and stale at other locations. While this review may have been written after some herbal influence, I honestly do feel that this place is one of the better Taco Bell locations.”

I will not use the kiosks again. There were problems with the order and the cashiers could not help because we used the kiosk. The food is good though. I don't live in the area anymore but I will try them where I live now.”

“We landed at SFO, and my California-born husband immediately requested that I place an online order to pick up Round Table pizza on the way to visit family in Woodside. We arrived 10 minutes early, so they put the pizza in ASAP. It was done in ten minutes, was steaming hot, and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. Friendly staff work at this location, which is clean and has parking.”

It seems like five or ten minutes just to order a soda , but not at this location. They also had pineapple fantas zero which was a treat.

I did a huge thing of chicken huge fry oh, you know the works. It was delicious. I was happier than a pig in slop, when you go to KFC try to be realistic it's not the Savoy it's not some high end restaurant with fancy French waiters or gourmet chefs know come on guys give me a break. As you get older like me, you kinda see the little things that really matter not that they had to wait one minute for someone that noticed me, you know, etc. etc. OK enough of me bitching everyone have a good Christmas all right take care.”

“This post is overdue but felt it was necessary! After a day of celebrating a birthday with some friends, we all decided we wanted to go someplace close to our house to watch some sports and get some food/drinks. We stumbled across Hidden Tap & Barrel and ended up having an amazing time. We were one of the only people there, and our bartender/server, Monica went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. My girlfriend doesn't drink, so Monica took it upon herself to experiment with mocktail recipes, all which were delicious. Her energy and vibe kept our party going and we just loved her. We ordered a couple of pizzas from the connected Curry Pizza House, which was delicious. The bar itself is extremely clean and modern, with lots of TVs. We will definitely be back and hopefully have Monica as our bartender again!”

Sodini's 727 El Camino Real, Redwood City Bar • $

“I've been going to Sodinis bar to sing karaoke with friends and family for a few years now. I was there this past December celebrating my birthday. I've had a pretty good time whenever I've gone there. The bartenders are pretty friendly and the bar owner Robert is also always nice. The only negative I would say is that when it gets kind of busy on the weekends and there's a long list of singers, it's hard to get on the karaoke list to sing right away. I was recently reminded by the bar owner that there's karaoke on Thursday nights. So if you're looking for a good time out in Redwood City and on the Peninsula Thursday-Saturday nights and enjoy singing karaoke, go check out Sodinis. You won't be disappointed. Cheers! Kudos.”

Recientemente agregaron variedad de salsas a la mesa, antes se le tenían que pedir a la mesera. - Chilaquiles verdes: riquísimos! Ojalá tuviera una foto. Las tortillas son doraditas y la salsa super rica. - Morisqueta: muy rica - Enchiladas michoacanas: deliciosas, no las sirven muy grasosas y el pollo tiene el "crisp" perfecto. - Bebidas: hemos probado agua de horchata y la michelada. Ambas super ricas! La razón de las 4 estrellas es porque estaría bien que aceptaran tarjeta y porque la mayoría de las sillas estan desbalanceadas, estaría bien que le invirtieran en mejores sillas.”

Carnitas El Rincon 999 El Camino Real, Redwood City Mexican • $

“This is by far the best place to go for some really moist and perfectly cooked carnitas. This place is pretty straight forward; Carnitas and tortillas with just few side selections which are rice and beans. That's it. This is why they perfected cooking up the carnitas.I highly recommend ordering the Combo #3 which is 6 freshly hot tortillas, 1/2 lb mixed carnitas (meat and facial pieces), a small half cup of beans and rice. The meat literally falls apart and is drenched with it's juices. I love the fatty parts such as the cheeks, ears, and other parts; this is perfect with the salsa. This combo was priced at $15 which is a great choice for a first timer. I do want to come back again and try their burrito. Their burrito is huge! basically an arm length lol. I will be back again!”

The black soy milk, although advertised as slightly sweet but it is sweeter than I have anticipated. Parking would be challenging. Either one park at nearby capelo's which has excellent bbq or keep the blinkers on and park in front of the building.vThe purple rice dumplings are cheap, good quality and authentic. The black soy milk (slightly sweet) is a little too sweet in my opinion.”

There is a front and back entrance and pickup is on the left side of the front entrance when you walk in about halfway through the restaurant. (Saw many people confused by this) They have many dishes that are classic takeaway options. We didn't try anything too spicy but will have to when I return. We ordered the double mushroom chicken, veggie and brown rice fried rice, pan fried pork dumplings, and scallion pancakes( who doesn't love fried dough?) . Everything was tasty and as expected.

Not sure who's putting the bad reviews but it's all untrue. It's new. Give them a chance. Overall this chipotle seems to have a little smaller foot print but it does have a call/order ahead pick up window which is cool. Overall Chipotle restaurants have gone a little downhill over the past few years.”
