    Excellent baked goods, sandwiches, buns, salads, plates and coffee drinks. The cookies are the best, especially the chocolate chip cookies. The break bar is one of my favorites and is so hearty and tasty. The scones and all the variety of breads are amazing. The stufffed buns (bao) are worth trying. For the plate, choose a protein, sauce & 3 sides. The cafe latte is perfect. Everything is made with care, looks great, tastes great and is reasonably priced. I will continue to support this business.

    Breakfast sandwich

    Matcha latte is disappointing, fried chicken sandwich is just a slightly burnt chicken katsu, but their breakfast sandwich is really good.

    This place was delicious! Pros: Plenty of indoor/ outdoor seating Delicious pastries - the lemon ricotta pastry was my favorite. The Asian fusion mandos were also delicious- we had the pork / shrimp, and the egg/ chive. Servings are small though. Packed up our takeout very nicely. Has its own parking underground and also close to municipal parking Hot chocolate (and pistachio hot chocolate) was yummy! Has kids games and coloring sheets to keep lils entertained Cons: No low fat dairy options for drinks but does have oat and almond milks. Food took a while to come out even if it's premade and just getting heated. I think you can also just get it cold to go and heat yourself. Pro tips: Unheated pastries available at their to-go stand across the street

    Lemon Ricotta Pain
    Julian L.

    Cute café‑bakery vibe. Food is standard café fare, but done cleanly--the salad was evenly dressed, the lemon ricotta pain moist and dense. Tried the original chocolate chip and the oatmeal cookies but the original chocolate remains the star of the show for me. Service was friendly and nice. Overall, an easy, pleasant stop.

    Plate lunch with protein and three sides.

    Updating my review because they've updated their menu somewhat. This time, my mixed greens were dressed with an actual salad dressing which gave them a lot more flavor. And my Brussels sprouts were fried and drizzled with a balsamic glaze. And the potatoes were also fried and super delicious and crunchy. They now also offer a dipping sauce on the side as well, and I chose lemon aioli. But with actually sauces and flavoring added to my sides, I didn't actually use much of it. And I chose roasted chicken instead of the tasteless fried cutlet and was pleasantly surprised by both the portion size and the flavor. Service at the counter was very amiable and pleasant and he even stopped by later at our table to check in on how our meal is going. We sat outside surrounded by many leafy plants where there was also a nice breeze and shade. Overall, a great experience and probably one of the most reasonably priced lunch options in Menlo Park.

    Cheddar scallion rollette
    Paula N.

    Coffee was super tasty! Rollette was delicious. Vibe was lively and everyone friendly. Very busy on a Saturday afternoon but able to get seating as people go in and out. We also ordered the lox and caprese sandwiches which come with a mixed greens salad.

    Positive vibes and great views all around and in a very convenient location walking distance to/from the Menlo Park train too. Little Sky Kitchen looks hidden and small inside, but it's a pretty legit cafe/coffee spot. Feels inviting and great out here! I had a small hot cup matcha latte $7 with a poppyseed muffin $6 and was satisfied with the cashier who was chatting with me. Friendly and conversational. Grab a table number if dining here. Pastries looked amazing. They have good breakfast/lunch menu items to choose from. Excitement is next door with the popular and spacious Cafe Borrone taking center attention, especially around lunchtime with career professionals dining indoors and outdoors. It's quiet at Little Sky Kitchen, which fits the business name and type of place. There's free public parking in garage under this Menlo Center plaza. Street parking is much harder to find. I am tempted to try more items next time. Environment was fabulous for this little cafe/restaurant setting. I'll be back!

    Iced Matcha and Nutella Challah

    The food is great and service is very friendly! Very good vibe inside too. Definitely reccomend

    Kyle F.

    I love this place, and am not sure why I procrastinated for so long on writing a review for them. Location/ambiance: For context, I work right across the train tracks from Little Sky, at Saint Frank Coffee. So it's uber convenient for me to come here during my lunch breaks, which I usually do around 3-4 times per week. I really appreciate the music and overall ambiance here. It makes for a good place for a conversation, which I see a lot of people doing here. For me, I definitely come for the food and for a quiet space to decompress from work with a book or devotional. And so, the pretty outdoor patio, comfortable seating, and soothing music are all much appreciated attributes of this environment for me. Food: I really enjoy the food. Firstly, the fact that it's relatively healthy and freshly cooked is big for me. Second, the flavor in the roasted potatoes and brussel sprouts is something I genuinely look forward to. The rotisserie chicken and fried chicken are both pretty bland on their own, to be honest, but the lazi sauce easily makes up for this. Sauces: To take a moment on the lazi sauce, it's like a semi-sweet, non-spicy chili flake based sauce that is simply really, really good. If you go & make a similar order to mine, try it. The dark sweet soy sauce is delicious as well. Lastly, I'd be remiss to not mention the breakfast sandwich -- absolutely delicious. Only reason I don't have a photo of it is because I can never wait long enough before devouring it to catch a photo! Price: this one's a bit complicated for me because when they first opened, they were selling their plate with one protein + three sides for $10. Just 10 dollars!!!!! Since then, they've raised the price to $18. Which is understandable given the generally high cost of goods in this area. It's just disappointing for me. So, I've adjusted so that I can continue coming here by limiting myself on weekdays to just one protein with the lazi sauce -- $9. On weekends if I'm here, I'll treat myself to the full plate with sides for $18. Service: I wish I could give a shout out to all their workers, because essentially everyone who has worked here during the last year I have been coming here have been friendly, welcoming, and at the very least polite towards me. From the current staff, I want to acknowledge Harper for always greeting me with a smile. Georgina and Miracle are both especially welcoming and warm, and I enjoy having conversations with them whenever time allows. There are a few more staff members whose names I either don't know yet, or who worked here in the past. So giving them a general shout out and thank you. A final note is that the staff has turned over quite a bit over the past year, which can be disappointing as a regular customer as you don't get to see the people you form mini-friendships with anymore. I understand this is a natural element of food service, especially in this area, but just wanted to note that as well. However, even with all the turnover, pretty much every new person who has come to work here has been kind, warm, and welcoming towards me. Which actually ends up meaning more than you would think when I've made this my regular lunch spot I go to more days out of the week than not. Thanks again to everyone at Little Sky! Best, Kyle

    French toast

    I hate to do this because I want to support small businesses and I have otherwise enjoyed my meals here (though a tad pricey for the portions), but I had a very disappointing experience here today (Sunday 11am). Brought my two kids and husband here for an early lunch. It was very cold and I popped in to ask the lady at the register if dogs were allowed inside. She was very kind and went on and on about how they were very dog friendly, yes dogs are permitted inside, do we want a dog bowl and treats, etc. After that I ask my husband to move the group inside from the patio, proceed to order a $75 fast casual meal, and have now situated in a four seater. Then someone else comes out and asks if my dog is a service dog, and I say no. She then says we have to go outside for health code reasons. I explain that I just asked and was told we could sit inside before I ordered and she did not care. No concern that they'd just told us the opposite, no effort to help problem solve or make our move easier, NO APOLOGY for the mistake or inconvenience. I would expect basic acknowledge, apologize and offer to help us move? She was worse than a chatbot. Really poor customer experience and sort of erases all of our prior experiences here. I didn't catch her name but she has short hair and I think it was dyed orange. Do better. Food is still tasty.

    Original chocolate chip cookie
    Sharon C.

    Came to try their pastries. Their original chocolate chip was good, so I bought more to share with friends. It's a chunky, chewy cookie with walnuts and dried apricots. The outdoor seating area is cute! Not sure how often their small pop up store is open, but we saw it across the street in front of Philz coffee. They had a lot more pastry offerings, esp challah bread. I got the pistachio challah bread. It was good but $6 for one roll and a little pistachio stuffing is a bit steep. I'd recommend sticking with the cookie!

    Patio

    I was in the area and found this location specifically for its pastries. Firstly, I'd like to say everything looked amazing! I ended up getting the double chocolate chip cookie and the Nutella stuffed bread, initially. Both items were full of flavor, tasted fresh, were very affordable. I wish the bread was warmed up though because it would have taken it to another level! I noticed they had a full lunch menu and decided to indulge. I had the roasted chicken, Brussels sprouts, and carrot slaw! The carrot slaw was PHENOMENAL! It seemed to be tossed in a sweet gochujang marinade that was cold and refreshing. Oh and btw the staff were so friendly and welcoming. I'll be back! Pros: Affordable. A nice patio with a relaxing chill ambiance. Fresh tasting meals full of flavor. Delicious sweet treats. Great for Cons: A little oily if you're being health conscious.

    Iced latte, onion parm bialy
    Katie K.

    I went kind of close to closing and the guy manning the cashier started giving out random extra buns to customers. I originally only ordered a coffee and a savory bread but came back home with an extra nutella bun. The inside is sorta limited in seating but they have a lot more tables outside. The onion parm bialy ended up being a bit dry and hard. I wanted to love it cuz it looked so yummy but it was just alright.

    Cute dog-friendly patio (7 tables)!

Unfortunately, there really isn't any ambiance in here since nobody greets you and you just order on a tablet. There are a few tables inside but it doesn't have a super welcoming vibe.

Their boba is not the texture boba usually is (it almost tasted like they gave me the wrong order, although I was the only person in there). It was almost crunchy. I ended up throwing the drink away halfway through since I kept trying to avoid the boba with my straw and really wasn't enjoying it. The quality of the tea was fine.

The burrata with peaches was an easy choice. Crisp, toasted crostini slices paired beautifully with the silky, creamy burrata, while the peaches added a pleasant touch of tangy sweetness. Finished with a drizzle of balsamic glaze and fresh microgreens, every bite was well balanced. The beet salad was just as good. Generous chunks of roasted beets were accompanied by grapefruit, shaved fennel, and creamy avocado, all tossed in a bright, refreshing vinaigrette. The tangy goat cheese tied everything together perfectly. As if that weren't enough, I also ordered the Basil Melt. Layered with organic heirloom tomatoes, fresh organic basil, creamy mozzarella, and thyme aioli on an Acme baguette, it delivered fresh, vibrant flavors in every bite. Simple ingredients done right. To finish, I treated myself to their affogato, topped with house-made whipped cream. Rich, creamy, and wonderfully indulgent, it was the perfect afternoon pick-me-up. The only miss for me was the almond croissant. While I appreciated the generous topping of toasted sliced almonds, the house-made almond filling didn't quite deliver the rich, buttery flavor I was hoping for. Service was warm and welcoming from start to finish. The staff happily helped photograph our party of four, which was a thoughtful touch that added to an already enjoyable brunch experience. Overall, this is a wonderful neighborhood café with excellent savory dishes, and fantastic coffee drinks.

Since the change in management, the quality of the coffee has declined significantly, I think due to their baristas either not being very experienced or not having a passion for coffee.

They are much slower at getting coffees out and they make many more mistakes.

It's still a lovely place to go and sit down though, and I hope they get the kinks out of their operation.
