Everyone loved the back garden. The food was delicious and service was attentive. The group also liked that they had live music that wasn't too loud so they could talk.

Great music & ambience. Fun evening!

Made a reservation on Open Table to celebrate anniversary - we had our one of our first dates here back in 2013 and like to come back every so often. Haven't been back since before COVID and it has changed significantly. We arrived to learn that there were 2 private parties and our only outside option was lounge area with no tables. We sat down and tried to accept the fact that we were at a great place. Unfortunately, my partner's bad back needed a better chair and this casual option was not what we wanted (especially with the tasting prices and quality of food). We decided to leave without ordering. I suggested to the host that in the future, they personally contact people who make reservations for special occasions (on OpenTable) to notify them of the private parties and limited seating and allow the client to keep or cancel the reservation. My partner and I were very disappointed as we consider this a special place in our relationship history. Not sure about coming in the future but always appreciate Open Table access. Perhaps there can be a special message when restaurants have private parties and limited seating?

Front yard is comfortable but close to cars, the backyard is more cozy, comfy & offers live music. Good food and service.

AMAZING ? wines from all over the world great ? food, live music every night. By far the best restaurant in Palo Alto.

The setting is great, we had a table in backyard garden with live music. The service was okay, nothing spectacular. Food was rather average. We sent one plate back.

Very fun and engaging hosts

The staff was wonderful. Great food and wine. They have live music that puts you and your table in a great mood. Highly recommend.

As usual the food selection is divine and each item is prepared to perfection. The ambiance, the live background Jazz and the friendly and attentive serving crew make this intimate place a must.

The ambience was great but the waitress was really pushing us to order food, making us feel so uncomfortable.
