    Look It's no secret I love small hardware stores. Poking around, finding that one item you may or may not really need. It always has a treasure hunt aspect to it. Menlo Park Hardware is no exception. Its decently sized but packed with all kind of stuff to check out. Customer service is good as you would expect from a small business. One nice thing about these kind of stores is the knowledgeable staff. When you come in looking for the "thing" that attaches to the dohickey....... They always know what that "thing" is. The parking can be sketch, but you can also enter the store from the parking lot in back.

    Glad to have Ace back in town! Helpful, very well stocked, and if they don't have it, will get it.

    The one and only downside to this place is that it's pricey - think maybe 30-40% higher than the big box store.

After returning from a long trip, I couldn't open the padlock on my suitcase, which contained my personal belongings and medications. I went to Ace Hardware for help, and one of the employees (Jessica or Jennifer?) cut the padlock off with a large pair of bolt cutters in just two minutes. She even refused to accept payment for the service. I was deeply touched because, before going to Ace, I had tried to get the same service at A-A Lock & Alarms in Menlo Park. The employees there asked me to wait for the manager (or owner?) before they could help me. I waited hopefully because I have been using that shop's services for many years. I understood that they were going to charge me $25 to cut the padlock, and although I thought the price was quite high, I agreed because the situation was urgent. You can imagine my shock when the manager bluntly corrected me, saying that the price was not $25, but $250! Needless to say, I felt insulted and left determined never to use their services again.

I came here a month ago to pick up chicken feed with my toddler. I sat her down and turned aside for 20 seconds to lift the feed bag, and then noticed she was standing next to an open bag surrounded by loose pellets. I looked closer and realized this was open, loose rat poison. Yikes! The bags say to handle with heavy gloves and to keep from pets and children. At least one is an anti-coagulant rodenticide - very bad for a child to get into. I would never had expected to come across loose poison littering the floor while shopping, and I might have easily assumed it was just loose feed if I hadn't noticed the packaging. I told the person at the register but they did not seem concerned. I probably should have impressed upon him further the danger of keeping these open bags with spilled contents on the floor of the customer area, but I was also worried that my daughter may have handled/eaten some in the moment I was turned away, and I wanted to leave quickly to tend to that possibility. A month has passed and I stopped by for more feed. The same open bags with same spilled poison are still littering the floor. This seems dangerously negligent on Robert's part. There are many things to like about this store, and I'd much rather be writing about those. Please clean up this dangerous and irresponsible mess before someone's service dog or child is harmed.

A huge thank you to Georgette and Sophie for taking such amazing care of us during our meal, and to Patrick for being so friendly and helping us take some great pictures! The entire staff was incredibly attentive, polite, and welcoming. Before you even reach the restaurant on the third floor, you walk through their interior design space, which is absolutely gorgeous. Once you get upstairs, the indoor dining area is highly aesthetic, and the outdoor seating is beautiful, too. The only minor downside is that the indoor dining area was a bit loud--not quite what you'd expect for a fancy restaurant, but it wasn't a dealbreaker since we could still easily hold a conversation at our table. As for the food, it is definitely on the pricier side, but absolutely delicious! I think their wine is too expensive for a glass but the food kind of makes sense. * Starters: We had the Haas avocado caviar and the Buretta. Definitely make sure to order some starters because they set the bar high! I am still dreaming about that caviar--it was easily my favorite. * Entrees: We ordered the Salmon, roasted chicken, and steak frites. Everything was cooked beautifully. We will definitely be coming back to try more of their menu. Big shoutout again to Georgette and Sophie--we'll be back for them! Also shoutout to the Chef for picking out great tomato and avocado, it was fresh and very delicious.

Despite them being packed, he was very attentive, kind and overall a big piece in making our experience delightful. Food does take a while to come out Despite what we ordered. However, it was still delicious and loved every bite. Definitely a high end spot, so expect the price tag to reflect the experience. Would come back again and glad to have this place in Stanford Shopping Center

This is the only Home Depot that employees greet their customers that I've been too. I usually go to the garden center as they have a larger variety of plants in comparison to East Bay. Plants selection is huge and are well taken care of. I find more tropical fruit plants here compared to where I live. Employees are eager to assist. I only had one horrible experience for a plant return with a female Hispanic associate with red hair questioning me. She pulled the citrus tree out of the soil and accused me that this isn't a tree. Given that the tree had died and shriveled up, I return what I had purchased under their 1 yr plant guarantee. She called a manager and no one showed up and was having a fit. She reluctantly processed my return but in the future, I won't try to save a tree and return it immediately once it goes bad because of her interrogation. I used to purchase a lot of fruit trees but it is no longer a hassle free transaction, purchases have been more restricted.

Now I went the general location of where it would be found a asked a crew member in a Home Depot vest exactly the brand and type I was looking for and that I didn't want it in the spray can I wanted it in a quart as so my partner and put it in his own spray gun. The man looked at me like I was crazy and was no we don't have I haven't even heard of that brand I said oh okay well it doesn't have to be that brand but could you point me in the direction of that product. He then look at the guy in a blue Adidas zip up and was like do you know what she is talking about and he said no I don't think we have that. Then pointed to the spray cans and then was oh well this is probably what ur looking for and it was a quart can of lacker. I said okay well this can be sprayed right and he said yes and then walked away . I bought it come to find out that one could only be brushed on. So great then I go back to return it I ended up picking up some spray cans instead. That same man in the blue jacket was there behind the paint counter I the. Asked him where the stir cups are because I needed to pick up a couple more things since I was already back there he looked at me and was like I don't know. I think we have some plastic cups down on the aisle to your right. And then turned back around to the computer.... I ended up finding the cups that I needed so thank God for that but the attitude and the judgment and the clear unhelpfulness from the crew members. There was really appalling. I've had plenty of other experiences at different. Home Depot's. That have been completely different team. Members are always happy to help walking you to the sections, but I received none of that at this Home Depot. Hopefully, they can shape up their team.
