We visited Local Kitchen with our family for dinner on Saturday and had a great experience overall. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was welcoming, the interior was modern and comfortable, and the customer service was friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our food arrived quickly, which we really appreciated. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Our son loved his burger, and our daughter enjoyed her grilled cheese sandwich with added bacon and lettuce. She wasn't a fan of her boba drink, but that was probably just a matter of choosing the wrong flavor. I really enjoyed my hummus and chicken dish. The only small issue was that I had asked for no spicy salsa, but it was still added. It wasn't a big deal, but I hope they'll pay a little closer attention to special requests in the future. Overall, we had a very nice family dinner and would definitely come back! read more

Local Kitchens - Chicken with hummus - Burgers Near Me - San Bruno, California

We've been coming here since they opened, literally. We braved the rain storm to come by on Opening Day, since we had been looking forward to it coming when it was first announced. We were previously fans of Local Kitchens (LK) from trying other locations in the past. Over the years since they opened, the menu has changed a bit. There are still some of the original partners, but there has also been some turnover. Square Pie Guys and Boba Guys are two staples that are still available. This has become one of our favorite spots to get pizza in the area. The thick crispy crust is some of the best, and we like the wings too! Other newer options include a Sonoran-inspired menu from Chef Rick Martinez with dishes such as: Chips & Frijoles, a Jalapeño Ranch Wedge Salad, Carne Asada Taco, Chicken and Vegetable Adobada Tacos and Burritos, Rice Plates and Berry Dessert Nachos. The tacos are pretty tasty, and we recently tried the salad -- I have to say it was surprisingly spicy. This from people who order everything spicy, both the wifey and I made comments about the mouth tingles it gave us. The order comes with two pieces; make sure to eat them as soon as possible, as they will get wilted from all the dressing and sauces. There's a middle-eastern style menu from Israeli Chef Einat Admony with dishes like: Black Garlic Cauliflower, Homemade Hummus and falafel, and pita bread. They have a very tasty Amba Chicken that you can get in a Pita wrap, Rice Plate, or Hummus Plate. You can also get the aforementioned options with their Housemade Green Falafel. My wife is a huge fan of the yellow Amba Aioli, and we love to get the cauliflower dish with the black garlic sauce, even if we don't get anything else from that menu. If you're looking for a burger, look no further than their collab with Chef Alvin Cailan. On this menu, you can get the signature SOB Burger (regular, hot, or with bacon), a double ("The Overachieving SOB Burger"), fries, a Molasses Chocolate Chunk Cookie. We really like their burgers, and were even invited to the launch of this menu, where we got to meet Chef Alvin and watch a live demonstration of him making his famous SOB burger! While they no longer have Proposition Chicken by name, they do have a rebranded version featuring Chef Ari Feingold, who is the Executive Chef and Owner of Prop Chicken. The menu is a little different, featuring options like: Fried Chicken Tenders, The Fried (and spicy) Chicken Sandwich, Fried Chicken Salads, and "Prop Spiced Fries". We are big fans of the Prop seasoning. It's really good on the fries, and I love ordering the chicken tenders since they use it on them, and the breading reminds me more of a fish & chip taste, which I love! Each of the places has their own selection of sauces that you can add to the dish, or order extras of on the side. Most of them are $1/each, aside from the Mike's Hot Honey ($1.50) and the Pecan Salsa Macha Norteña ($2). A moment of silence for some of the Opening Day options that are no longer available at the San Bruno location: The Melt, Sushirrito, Nopalito Taqueria, Humphry Slocombe, Milk Bar. The staff has always been very friendly when coming in, greeting us with a smile. The food tends to be ready on the early side of the estimate when placing orders on the LK app. There have been times (including our recent Super Bowl order) where items (mostly sauces) have been missing. We always make sure to do a quick check inside the dining room or in the car before taking off. This most recent time we were missing several sauces, but the guy at the counter was super accommodating and eventually got us everything we paid for. Thanks LK for always churning out reliable quality food -- we look forward to new menus dropping soon,and hopefully more fun launch parties! @bbnem.eats read more

The tacos are nicely hot and crispy, though the onions and cabbage slightly overshadow the delicate flavor of the fish. I love their strawberry matcha with boba. The wait for your orderr deoends on when you go. It's usually not long wait anyway. You grab whatever you need like condiments and water at the side of the restaurant. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is clean with some tables and chairs for any dine in customers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I usually order to go. Two kiosks available for customers to place their orders. read more

My friend was visiting from Texas and I tried to find a good place near San Francisco International Airport. I remembered their is a Local Kitchens not too far so I took him there. We ordered the com tam / broken rice plate with pork belly and also strawberry tea fresca from Boba Guys. I am a huge fan of Local Kitchens and love checking out the other locations whenever I am in the area. I love how I can always get gourmet, freshly cooked/prepared meals and drinks pretty much all day until 12am! My friend and I loved our lunch! The pork belly was cooked to perfection and all the sides were absolutely delicious! This is my favorite dish at all of the Local Kitchens. It is bright, colorful, flavorful, perfect portion and just hits the spot. And to wash it down, the refreshing strawberry tea fresca with soft chewy tapioca boba. If you are near the airport or just in the San Bruno area and don't want to wait in a long line at In n Out burger, I highly recommend Local Kitchens San Bruno. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lots of parking, friendly staff, clean bathrooms, plenty of other food options on the menu and open late too![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Excellent, quick service and friendly staff! Parking is abundant, this restaurant is at a shopping plaza with plenty of parking. Staff is friendly! I could tell the manager really cares about your experience! I bought a bunch of food and I can tell he was grateful just for that. The rest of the staff was just as nice. I got strawberry matcha milk tea, the carne asada bowl, and the spicy chicken strips. Everything was excellent, they have a huge selection of food and have taken partnerships with surround restaurants to create a phenomenal menu of options from many different cuisines. The restaurant is clean and cozy! They have sofa you can sit and eat/wait at, they tables that are both high and low tables taking everyone's experience in consideration. They also have an outdoor patio that's beautiful, great when the weather warm. All in all I will be returning, you can't go wrong at this place and if you do, they will make it right read more

Looking at Local Kitchens for a nice bite, I was intrigued by Chef Tue Nguyen's menu with the broken rice. The ordering process on the website was very easy (although the doordash page increases the price of each entree by $2-$3 per, so buyer beware). Easy pick-up, although it took some time before a staffer knew I was at the waiting window. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Empty place on a Thursday evening, so a great place for anyone wanting to socialize and where the group has different tastes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Broke Chick Tam was fantastic and is one of the best things to come out of Local Kitchen besides the Square Guys. Great flavor, and I loved the variety of pickled vegetable offerings. I am ready to go back and get another one. read more

Local Kitchens - Broke Chick Tam - Burgers Near Me - San Bruno, California

This is a unique spot for "ghost kitchen". [[HIGHLIGHT]]The dining area is clean and well designed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I like the idea of just ordering from various food choices. They had from Mexican to Vietnamese to burgers to sushi to boba and ice coffee. I like the variety. Unfortunately I don't think this place is price friendly. This restaurant is across the street from YouTube HQ and a couple of corporate companies. So I see some customers with their employee badge. The service was great, even though there is no human cashier, you basically order on a kiosk. The employees are checking around into the dining area if we needed anything else and offering above and beyond service. This was on a Tuesday Night! Truly will come back if I want a treat but not so often because of the prices. By the way there is so many customers the board of waiting for your order is full! read more

HUGE SHOUT OUT TO KELLIE, customer service representative who went above and beyond. So often I write about horrible customer service and food where I and my friend sand coworkers never return because restaurants simply don't care. Kellie reached out to me about my SOB truffle burger. At $15 with no fries and drink it's expensive in these times. The burger tasted like it had been sitting for an hour on a tray. Cold inside, barely warm outside and no truffle flavor. You know how much I enjoy Boba Guys matcha lattes, but with all that ice for $14 for 2 drinks, like what?!? The Vietnamese coffee was quite good and great addition to their menu. Also too much ice, but very tasty not too sweet or bitter. So at like 11am there was no water in their pitcher and the woman behind the counter who I told about the water refilled it but she was very dismissive and at first she didn't understand me so I had to say "agua" with what little Spanish I knew. Also, when I picked up my food she took back my burger and I had to ask for it back LOL. There were only like 4 other orders, so it wasn't busy. Very strange. Anyways 5 stars for Kellie who is amazing. Wish everyone was as amazing as her at LK. read more

Forgot to post this review from a few months ago. I had no idea how decent this spot was. I've seen it so many time whenever I go to my gym, but did not give it a thought. My loss. I had a "sushirrito". I always thought they were weird. As it turns out, it's just a thick sushi roll with some burrito-like ingredients. I had the Geisha's Kiss and it was like being kissed by a Geisha. I was smitten. Everything was very fresh and the house chips gave it a nice little crunch. I love sushi and this place does a nice job. It might be my Go-To order from LK. Okay, time for the pic. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Stopped by for a quick bite while in the area and ended up staying a couple of hours to get some work done. It was quiet on a Monday afternoon.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food came out quickly and the kind staff brought it to my table and later came back to take away my tray. I later ordered a drink and the service was still top notch. Boba Guys quality seems to be the same as the standalone stores. And Proposition Chicken sandwich was okay. Nice and crispy but not my preferred fried chicken sandwich. read more

Local Kitchens - Fried Chicken Sandwich - Burgers Near Me - San Bruno, California

Local Kitchens is a local bay area ghost kitchen chain! The concept has been novel since the pandemic, and while I like the idea, it's rough when you know the food tastes better from the original source. Also, I think the concept of ghost kitchens should in theory mean better pricing, but it's kind of expensive. Boba Guys serves a basic menu of their popular drinks. Since they're not a boba shop, the boba isn't freshly cycled, so I don't like adding toppings from here. The Thai tea is probably the best to get as it's the strongest flavored, but I'd generally prefer getting drinks elsewhere. At Proposition Chicken, the spicy sandwich was enjoyable and tasted like Popeyes with a good bun, prominent pickles, and tongue spice. The chicken patty was ok - it was meaty, oddly-shaped, and can stand to have more crunch. The fried chicken tenders are ok - they are composed of large pieces of breast meat, and I found the coating to be odd, like fish and chips coating. The prop spiced fries are solid and subtle, and the green goddess dressing is good and herby. From Nopalito Taqueria, the quesabirria dipping tacos were quite cheesy and crisp, almost as if the shell was pure cheese. They came with a lot of raw onions, and were packed with braised birria beef. The consomme and salsa were strong and tasty! Square Pie Guys is included in all of our orders from Local Kitchens. Their pizza is good but expensive. It's worth it to grab Square Pie Guys during the big box deal on Mondays (buy one, get a second for $12.05). The 6x8 is our favorite, as it's a thick cornmeal like crust covered with stretchy cheese and tons of delicious pepperoni (pepperoni in every bite!). The Big Von disappointed me because they could have been more generous with the toppings, the white sauce wasn't too flavorful, and the Mike's hot honey made it too sweet. The cookies from Milk Bar are too sweet and very soft. They're so soft, that it almost tastes like it disintegrates into sugar granules when you eat them. I haven't tried all of their offerings yet, and some cycle out once in a while. Most brands can be seen around the bay, and if not, it's usually interesting offerings from a celebrity chef or something, which brings me to my next point... I received an invite to attend the launch party of Tam Tam Rice from chef Tue Nguyen (@TwayDaBae) at this location and had a fun time meeting Tue and tasting her food! I even won Tue's cookbook and got her autograph. She definitely made me want to head down to her restaurant, Di Di, in West Hollywood. If Local Kitchens made this location a hub for more events like this, I think that'd be really fun and would draw in more customers. [[HIGHLIGHT]]While I now live closer to a different location, I've enjoyed this location for their spacious and brighter seating area, ample parking, kind staff, and the delicious self-serve water![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

**** Tấm Tấm Rice Review **** 3.5 STARS Can't get to ĐiĐi in WeHo? Local Kitchens it is! Local Kitchens is a micro food hall that brings SF restaurant brands to the burbs. Been following Chef Tuệ (aka TwayDaBae) since she started posting YT Viet cooking videos prior to the pandemic. Happy to see her blow up as a TikTok chef with her own line of fish sauce, a cookbook, and new resto: ĐiĐi in WeHo. In February 2025, she launched a collab with Local Kitchens so those in the Bay can get a taste of her food. Her concept, Tấm Tấm Rice serves Viet broken rice plates. Placed an online order on Local Kitchens on our way there and was quoted 20-30 minutes. Arrived in 10 minutes and got a text that our order was ready, perfect timing! F O O D * The Broke Chick Tấm: Charbroiled chicken, fragrant broken rice, Vietnamese pork & egg quiche, pickled mustard greens, pickled daikon & carrots, persian cucumbers, tomato salad, scallion oil, crispy onions, cilantro, and sweet fish sauce ($14): https://tinyurl.com/36uxjt3y - Add fried egg ($2) * The Rich Pork Belly Tấm: Braised pork belly, fragrant broken rice, Vietnamese pork & egg quiche, pickled mustard greens, pickled daikon & carrots, persian cucumbers, tomato salad, scallion oil, crispy onions, cilantro, and sweet fish sauce ($16): https://tinyurl.com/ytc2pxxz - Add fried egg ($2) Both cơm tấm were visually appealing with vibrant colors but underwhelming in taste and unbalanced flavors. The best parts: the nutty, broken rice grains, runny egg yolk, and savory chả trứng (pork & egg "quiche" w/ wood ear mushrooms, and cellophane noodles). Between the two proteins, the chicken thigh meat was better but dry and tepid (obvs cooked ahead of time). The pork belly were like thin, soft bacon strips. While warm, it was quite burnt and hella salty with a strong oyster sauce flavor. I like that they included a myriad of veggies and pickled veggies for freshness and acid but the đồ chua (pickled daikon + carrots) was very sour and the pickled mustard greens was very bitter. Not sure if they used Chef Tuệ's own line of fish sauce but the nước chấm tasted like sweet water with no funk. Glad we added a side of sambal ($1) for heat. Overall, in my experience with Local Kitchens, you don't often get the same results as the actual brick and mortar restos because IMO, it's hard for staff to master 8-10 different resto brands and menus. I believe Tấm Tấm Rice is the only place to get broken rice in the Peninsula tho so it's worth a try to see if you have a better experience. Rounding up to 4 stars for the facilities, clean restrooms, complimentary self-serve water, dog-friendly patio, and plentiful free parking! read more

This is a great concept. A mini food court contained in a communal kitchen. After I saw this on a foodie segment I bookmarked it. I especially wanted to try the Tam Tam Vietnamese offering. Hubby & I dropped in last Friday afternoon. There are self operated kiosks where you select the local kitchen you're interested in; then select what you're interested in ordering. Pay with credit card. Provide your name and mobile #. There's a screen with your name and ETA. Projected time 15-20 minutes. Ordered to go - * Spicy pork belly broken rice bowl * Lemon grass chicken rice plate * Pork belly rice plate Our order was ready within the estimated time. Prepared hot which we didn't eat for several more hours. Portion sizes on the small side but tasty & satisfying. read more

I bought an order of chicken tenders. When I received the chicken, it was really tough to chew since the breading was incredibly hard. You could not crumble it with your fingers and it still kept its shape, even when smashing it on the tray it still remained in tact. Whoever is in charge of the breading needs to be GONE. Decent grilled cheese but I can taste American cheese ANYEHERE. Added a star because they had Mexican coke which is nice. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place was okay, good seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Just sad about my chicken :( read more

A collection of food vendors gathered under a Local Kitchens locale, some well known, some seemingly ready to be discovered and savored. You can order via their app or go in to LK and order on their kiosks. Seating available, though limited and arranged like a fast food eatery. Most orders is take away.

I've come here twice so far, spaced about half year apart, and the staff has been super friendly both times. The first time, I wanted Detroit-style pepperoni pizza, boy, did they deliver (not literally because I picked up at the counter). It was SO good. The second time, I went for the sweet onion burger, and it totally hit the spot. If you live close by, highly recommend this place for takeout.

Finally had an opportunity to try this place! Ordered a pizza from Square Pie Guys as I have been on the hunt for Detroit style pizza. The pizza was light and the edges crispy! Love the hot sweet honey in the pizza to give it an extra layer of flavor. Everyone working there was super nice and it is a chill place to hang out and get work done or grab a bite. Looks like most of the food was pick up prolly to feed the tech people in the area. Personally, the price point was a little high to me for the size of the pizza but I can imagine if you're working close by or your company is footing the bill then why not? I do want to come back and try some of the other local kitchen offerings and my DIL can't wait to try the Boba Guys since they're the closest one in the area now. Be back soon! read more

Great concept for a restaurant! The different menus give every guest the opportunity to get what they really want but to still dine together as a group.

Love this joint! As a foodie I love variety and Local Kitchens has just that. From Boba Guys, Nopalito, Sushirrito, Proposition Kitchen... Lots of variety! Been here countless numbers of times, and I'll say that this place is good for groups with varying tastes. Of the good items I've had here, I like the quesabirria tacos (Nopalito), the herby goddess chicken salad (Proposition Chicken) - which were tasty and just like at the restaurants in SF. Pricing is similarly priced to the restaurant establishments in SF - so overall, reasonable in this regard. Local Kitchens is convenient - with plenty of parking at the Bayhill Shopping Center. Ordering is also convenient - you can either order at the kiosks in store or online (via their website or their app). Food comes out quickly too. Lastly I want to say that the staff here are super nice, which makes eating here (or take out) enjoyable! Definitely a fan, and will be back to try more food items from all the diversely represented restaurants' food items here. 5 stars! read more

Overall have had positive experiences here. The staff has always been positive, courteous and professional. Boba from Boba Guys is always yummy; the Proposition Chicken's "The Fried" was good (chicken was crunchy); Sweet Onion Burger's "The SOB" burger was good too...nothing amazing, but good; Koi Palace's dumplings were also a nice addition...they don't necessarily have all my personal dim sum faves but the Steam BBQ Pork Buns, potstickers & shrimp dumplings can't really go wrong; Square Pie Guys...I had the "Big Von", which had me at pepperoni cups and hot Honey!

What looks like a super convenient and chill spot to grab a quick bite, you quickly notice the menu is nothing short of disappointing. Everything is very "same-y" with not much variation.

There are plenty of great restaurants in this shopping center that are way better and a bigger bang for your buck. read more

A food hall in San Bruno? Thanks to yelp, this place popped up and after looking into its offerings I was excited to check it out. Whether you're a techie working nearby or you're someone like me who enjoyed these eateries when you used to work downtown, getting access to this is quite a treat. We ordered from Sushirrito, Proposition Chicken and Boba Guys and it was great to have one screen for everything! When we stepped in, I was quite impressed on how orderly and clean everything was. The staff was incredibly proactive and helpful. Even though this is a place where you order and pick up food, he checked in from time to time and even offered a highchair when he saw we had a baby.

I was in the area and decided to try it out. I had high expectations for this place because the concept is great; get a choice of great food under one roof. Unfortunately, I can get a lunch-sized pizza at SPG, but the only option available at LK was a full pie. So I tried a fried chicken sandwich with herby coleslaw and an agua fresca from Boba Guys. My husband tried a falafel sandwich, a side of coleslaw, and a molasses chocolate chip cookie. We also shared fries from Proposition Chicken. My overall impression is that the food/beverages are better at the original restaurants that focus on just those items with (lower prices) when compared to the items we had at LK. I will say that the customer service was exceptional. The cashier was eager to answer questions and was really helpful. Unfortunately, I don't think we will be back due to the higher cost and inconsistency in taste. read more

I can go on and on. They didn't forget to take care of our sweet tooth from Milk Bar, Ice cream from Humphry Slocombe and Thai Tea or Matcha Latte from Boba Guys. This place makes it easy for me.

I have been to this plaza several times but didn't know about Local Kitchens. Other than Boba Guys, I haven't tried any of the other places. Took about 20 minutes for our food to arrive after placing our order via the kiosk. Ordered the Roasted Cauliflower bowl - for some reason, I thought it would be cauliflower rice but it was regular rice. It was a flavorful bowl with a slight kick. The Proposition chicken strips arrived hot. I had them with a side of the malted mayo, which was needed as the chicken could be dry otherwise. Sis ordered a side of tomato soup and a grilled cheese - simple comfort food. Strawberry Matcha from Boba Guys is my usual go-to. Ordered it as less sweet, but it was still quite sweet. All of the indoor tables were taken during our recent weekend visit, so it seems to be a popular establishment. Convenient to have the various food kitchens available in one place, although there are limited offerings from each kitchen. read more

Be ready for a wait here when it's busy, so definitely order ahead of time (like 30-40 min) if you're coming in on a weekend like I did. We got a birria bowl and a salad with chicken added on from Nopalito Taqueria, and man, something in that salad is addicting (probably the dressing) because I kept chomping on it! I was also starving at that point, so it definitely helped. It was a great way for me to get my greens in, and the mixture of textures was very satisfying too. I can see why this food court type place is pretty popular on the weekends, but you're likely better off doing online pick up, in my honest opinion, because that's what a lot of people seem to do (hence the long wait). read more

Local Kitchens - Birria bowl from Nopalito - Burgers Near Me - San Bruno, California

I've always been skeptical of a concept like Local Kitchens so I've avoided this San Bruno location since it opened till recently. Honestly not bad at all. Their opening hours also don't reflect what is stated on yelp. It's also easy getting here because the parking lot is massive. I go here randomly on my late night study sessions and my go to has to be the burgers. Specifically the The Overachieving SOB ($14) and Garlic Fries ($7) and any of the drinks from Boba Guys even though it's not my favorite boba shop. The Matcha Latte ($6.10) is good enough. The prices can be on the higher side which is the downside. I don't recommend the sushirritos or burritos personally. The Overachieving SOB was so good though. The brioche bun is a great choice and the patty and toppings just melt in your mouth. Super crispy fries as well. Also what I like a lot is how comfortable the inside of the store is and the customer service is very friendly and hospitable every time I have gone. Would recommend it here. read more

I feel like this place was not worth the hype. Inside the place was pretty plain. You order your food on kiosks and then your name plus your wait time showed up on these TVs or big screens. The only time you interact with a human is when you get the food. Really good idea though, I like the concept for sure of being able to order different things from different "restaurants". When I went for dinner on a weekday they were out of a solid amount of entree options so the options were limited. The wait was also pretty bad, my group waited 45-55 mins for 2 sushirritos, a burger, and a rice bowl. The food itself was also not the best quality. Like if I went to an actual sushirrito location I probably would've gotten a more stuffed burrito. read more

Local Kitchens - Salmon sushirrito - Burgers Near Me - San Bruno, California

851 Cherry Ave, Ste 2 San Bruno, CA 94066 (at Bayhill Shopping Center) On Feb 3, I attended the Grand Opening Party for Local Kitchens (LK) in San Bruno. It's located in the Bayhill Shopping Center, near the I-280 freeway and San Bruno Ave. The restaurant itself is really nice with space for indoor/outdoor dining, restrooms, condiment station and free parking. As of Feb 3, 2024, I have been to every Local Kitchens restaurant in the SF Bay Area, Davis, and Roseville. Each location is different, and each place may offer a slightly different menu. This is not a fast food restaurant, this is a new concept in restaurants called the "micro food hall." After the party, I waited for the restaurant to open for regular business. I guess everyone had the same idea, because the place got slammed with orders. I placed one order across three menus: - Proposition Chicken (aka Prop C) - Half Roast Chicken - Sushirrito - Tempura Shrimp Hand Roll - The Melt - side of seasoned fries Okay, so why only 4-stars? There was confusion at the pickup counter. It wasn't a smooth experience. The place was super busy, and I was told my order was ready while the Local Kitchens App said I had to wait 35 mins. They should of put a supervisor in the kitchen to help route orders. (FYI- when in doubt, check the receipt and make sure that's what you ordered). How was the food? I think my order sat in the holding area for awhile. My fries weren't hot and fresh. I'm not sure if my Sushirrito Handroll was made correctly. But my Prop C Half Roast Chicken was excellent! I would order that again! You can read the details in my menu reviews. That's right Yelpers, each menu at Local Kitchens has it's own Yelp review. So you can go into details, post vivid food photos, and share tips! Overall, a good 1st time experience at this new location. I will return and try the pizza. Helpful Tip: Save time by using the Local Kitchens App and pickup your own order. Afterwards, LK will send you a survey and ask for feedback. read more
