I good variety on the menu to pick from and friendly staff. I would Recommend next time, that the soup comes out before the main course. I was too busy talking to realize it was not available earlier, so when it came with my main dish, my main dish got cold while I finished my soup.

Love this place. Never had a bad meal. Until today. Chef, you have to fix the tuna and melted cheddar sandwich. Mine was a dripping mess. Other than that, as always the service was great but I felt for our waiter. It looked like he had to service the whole place, and it was 80% occupied with diners. Despite that he did a great job.

What better way to spend a nice, sunny morning for brunch. The food is yummy and the view is beautiful!

We eat here mostly in nice weather so we can sit outside. The servers are nice and friendly. Outside is really lovely with the golf course and waterfall. Inside can be louder because of the TVs and sometimes there's music. The food is outstanding. Doesn't matter what you order. It looks beautiful when it arrives and tastes great. We just had an event the ball room that was catered with a buffet lunch. It was perfect. Alicia has a great restaurant and staff to take care of any needs.

This is in reference to the 'in-house' music (not the live bands or acoustics on weekends). Sometimes we want to go to relax, have a cocktail, a bite to eat, and good conversation. The loud 'club-style' music, or 'dance' music is so distracting that it is difficult to hear our conversations. The last few times we've been there, the person I was with said, at the same time as me, "can we go, this is just too loud." We had planned on a second glass of wine, but couldn't stand the music. How about more of a background music without the vocals? Or no music at all? And this has been on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons. We are not there to dance, but enjoy the ambience, views, and food.

You drive into a very quiet parking lot with ample parking spaces. You begin to question whether you are in the correct area… then you walk into the restaurant and realize you have walked into the right place. On a Friday night you enter the most exciting place in Burlingame! The music is live and the drinks are served…. The food is great and the service is fantastic. Be sure to go only if you want to enjoy yourself, especially on a Friday night!

Just made Easter Brunch reservations, and can't wait! We had our last Holiday brunch here, and the food was so good, the indoor/outdoor choices to be seated can't be beat, as well as the great service. So nice to have a local spot, that elevates the meal, and lets your extended family have a really good time!

Not sure why there are so many high reviews... And I'm not a picky person. It was my friend's birthday and I indicated that when I made reservations on OpenTable. I wanted her to enjoy the nice views while having her lunch. When we entered the place, the hostess didn't even look up until I nicely said hello and even then, she didn't smile or act friendly. When we asked her if we could sit by the window she look at us like a deer in headlights. So I said never mind. The clam chowder was watery and bland. I ordered the salmon cake Benedict but it was not placed on English muffins like a traditional Benedict. $20 for three small salmon cakes was not worth it. Since it was my friend's birthday, we ordered chocolate cake and ice cream. When it was brought out, it was a SLIVER (less than an inch!) of chocolate cake!! Not a normal slice!!!! It was $10!!! And the ice cream was $5!!! WTH? Overall, I was embarrassed for taking my friend there for her birthday lunch. We will not be returning.

Came here for a birthday dinner with our group of ten people on St. Patrick's Day. The service was fantastic. Started with the nice lady over the phone unfortunately whose name I have forgotten. She was friendly and helpful. Even called me the day of the dinner to let me know that sitting inside would be noisy that night because of people watching the game so she asked if we liked to sit outside. We did. It almost felt like we had our own private dining cabana because the other outside tables were far away from us. Every dish we ordered were fantastic! The prices were reasonable and the portions were fair. The flaming cheese appetizer is a must order! I was so enamored with the food I didn't want to stop eating so no pictures of the food was taken. Our waiter, Harry or Henry (sorry forgot his name) provided excellent service. I have to say it was also because of his service that really took the dining experience to the next level. Love this place! Will go again most definitely.

Needed a place for a breakfast meeting in Burlingame area and found Par 3. In general, it was really nothing special at all. The food was very average and the service was not terribly attentive. If I had to have another meeting in the area, I'd look elsewhere. I'm sure it is fine if you need to grab a bite before or after a round of golf.

We love Par 3. Delicious food over looking green grass on a golf course and exceptional service staff who are friendly, respectful and caring. We've been back many times and always have had excellent food and service. Again, top notch staff and service.

What's not to like? The view of the gorgeous golf course? The ample ample and delicious food? The great waitress, Shirley? We love the patio, but it was a cold winter day, so we enjoyed a great indoor window seat. We will probably never take up golf, but who cares?

First time here. Enjoyed the myself. Scheduled entertainment wasn't there, but the band that was there was very good. Lots of dancing and happy people. Good food and a very yummy drink.
