    Italian crepe
    Nancy C.

    Quick take: I really wanted to love this place It's a local spot and I like supporting small businesses. The food was okay. Italian crepe: crepe was too thick, didn't like the potatoes The pancakes weren't fluffy. Service was good but food is just okay.

    Great Lentil Soup!
    Sir C.

    I am an Outsider! New to the area and establishment! I was well welcomed and received. No discrimination! If only other establishments , not just in this area will be receiving and welcoming regardless of your race and social class! The world would be a better place. I like how well the interior is decorated. It's well kept. I enjoyed the Lentil Soup! Like Arnold said " I'll be Back"

    Tucked in the Carlmont Village Plaza, this spot came in handy on a cold morning for breakfast. Maybe it's because of the holiday, but we were one of only two tables. Service was quick and friendly. Ordered a latte which came large, creamy and hot! The standard breakfast plate was very plentiful. The potatoes were like a combo of house and hash - crispy on the top! They had a nice play on French toast served with Nutella. Lots of options on the menu for both breakfast and dinner lunch.

    Nothing bad but nothing great either. Decent basic breakfast food. They made my daughter's pancakes Mickey Mouse shaped :)

    mediterranean crepe with side salad

    i never would have known about this place had it not been for yelp! this cute little cafe is located at the carlmont village shopping center, but it's around the corner facing ralston, so i never would have seen it since i always enter via alameda de las pulgas. note that they only open for breakfast & lunch, 8-1430 daily. the waitstaff appeared to be mother & son and they were super sweet and prompt in taking our orders, presenting our food, and bringing us the bill. i ordered the mediterranean savory crepe, which had eggs, artichoke, eggplant, sundried tomatoes, olives, basil and feta cheese. i requested egg whites and light on the cheese for a healthier option. i also opted for salad on the side in lieu of potatoes. my plate was beautifully presented and it also tasted great! healthy, but very filling! the thin crepe was filled with lots of fresh veggies, and just a bit of cheese, as i requested. i probably could have eaten two of these, they were so delicious! the salad was just the right size for a side salad and it was so pretty, with the specs of tomatoes and red dressing (guessing something vinaigrette since it was tangy). the mother even took a photo for us, upon request, since our friends were dressed up for halloween :) my breakfast experience was well worth the $17.95 (before tax & tip) and i'll definitely be back to try some of their other breakfast options and maybe even lunch. i noticed the beautiful coffee cake sitting on the counter by the register and unfortunately, i was too full to order a slice after my meal...something to look forward to next time!

    Wow super delicious

    Over the past year we have been here 20 times. It's The Best in Belmont. They brighten any day with great quality food, vast selection on menu, fabulous coffee drinks, and a fresh fruit salad we love! Staff is stellar and the owner Fing is a high quality individual full of joy, hardworking, and smart. Parking is perfect, and the outdoor tables are perfect for the times as well as pets.

    Amazing crab  cake and frittata  Super yummy!!!! Will be back.

The eggs on the Benedict were poached perfectly, which I very much appreciate. Not only were they poached perfectly, but the eggs themselves were beautiful. Very fresh with that vibrant bright marigold color. The hollandaise sauce was creamy and delectable. The breakfast burger was amazing! It comes served on Filone bread which I thought went perfect with the burger. This bread is similar to ciabatta. Crusty on the outside, with a good chew on the inside. Firm enough to handle all the contents of the burger, but soft and chewy on the inside. The meat itself, chuck and brisket, was sensational. I'm not the type of person to ever order a burger without cheese but this burger could've definitely stood alone. Melted Monterey Jack, thick slices of bacon, fresh slices of avocado, and a perfectly cooked runny egg were just added bonuses. There was something on this burger that had a slight sweetness. I don't know if it was the samurai sauce that they put on it or the bacon, but it was delicious. I love that. It came served with a light salad tossed in vinaigrette as well. Coffee was served beautifully with a nice frothy head. Service was excellent. Attentive without being overbearing. Our server, Da, was so sweet and made our experience even that much more wonderful. Can't wait to come back. My one gripe was the size of the potatoes that came served with the eggs Benedict and the burger. This is not a cheap place to eat. For two of us to have breakfast with one coffee and an iced tea is $60 before tip. Don't be so chinsy on the tater tots and French fries. 10 tater tots? Come on now. It's not caviar. It's potatoes. I don't need a mountain of them just a decent portion. I almost knocked off a star for that, but everything else, specifically the service, warrants the five stars. Thank you for a wonderful meal and for the great hospitality.

The baked Brie was so gooey and paired well with the crackers, garlic, arugula and fig jam on the plate. It's a lot of fun because you get to put all the toppings on your piece of Brie. The short rib was tender and the sauce was rich, but way too bitter to my liking. The wild mushroom pasta was creamy and delicious, but could be enhanced with a bit of acid. The fried chicken was juicy. It was served with 3 cheese macaroni, corn bread and parsley. I didn't know what to do with the parsley. Overall, the meal looked and sounded better than it tasted. It'll be a while until I come back.

Maybe some of the other non gluten free items are better, but not suitable for a person that needs gluten free options unless you want to eat a salad.

By day, it's warm, welcoming, and family-friendly. You'll see families enjoying dinner, friends catching up over drinks, and locals stopping in for great food and hospitality. But once Friday night hits, the entire atmosphere transforms. The lights dim, the music turns up, the dance floor fills, and the energy becomes something you'd expect to find in a much bigger city. Friday nights bring a fun mix of crowds; from younger groups looking for DJs, dancing, cocktails, and nightlife energy, to older guests enjoying the live music, atmosphere, and social vibe. Honestly, I'm a little older myself and still absolutely love the younger, high-energy scene here. It's fun, welcoming, and never feels out of place no matter your age. That's what makes this place so unique. Everyone fits in and everyone has a great time. Then Saturdays bring a completely different experience with live artists and an incredible variety of music. One weekend you'll hear young country performers getting the crowd singing along, and the next you'll find authentic Irish fiddlers creating that classic pub atmosphere everyone loves. That variety is what keeps people coming back..every weekend offers something different and memorable. The food is outstanding, the beer and cocktail selection is excellent, and the hospitality is second to none. I finally had the chance to meet Molly, the owner, and it's easy to see why this place has built such a loyal following. Her passion for creating a place where everyone feels welcome shows in every detail. From the amazing service to the live entertainment and unforgettable atmosphere, this isn't just another local pub. It's become a destination spot and one of the true nightlife gems in San Carlos. Highly recommend checking it out, especially on the weekends.
