    Molly Magee's is probably the only legit dive bar that I have seen in Downtown Mountain View or in the nearby area.

    I grew up in Mountain View, and I've passed by Cascal many times, but I've never eaten there…read morebecause I know that they have a heavy fish menu. My friend and I decided to go there last night because the Mongolian barbecue was closed, and we were going to hit up a show at the Performing Arts Center. I'm glad we went because I got two Tapas and they were absolutely superb. I got the Potato Gratin and the Wild Mushroom Empanadas. A glass of red wine to top it off... And it was a delicious dinner. The wine wasn't so good, but the service was excellent and we ate outside because the inside was already full at 5:30. They have heaters and then it started sprinkling and we were concerned, but then they brought these huge umbrellas and put them over us and we were good. Excellent service, everyone was super nice, and I will definitely go there again. Tapas!!

    Food and service wasn't very good at my last visit. I've been here a few times several years back…read moreand remembered it being decent; enough for me to invite my in-laws to dinner here... but we left unimpressed. Food was too oily and salty this time. Except the shrimp was bland. Portions are small as expected for tapas, but I had expected more in taste given the cost. Restaurant was crowded with the after work rush, but we got seated quickly. I can understand slowness when busy, but they forgot our requests several times - needed to ask twice for heater, and three times for bread Restaurant decorations are nice but windy outdoor seating. Ok if you have a heater next to you

    I'm not from this area. The only reason why I came here was because it was within walking distance…read morefrom the hotel. I stayed at that hotel for 4 days. 2 of those days I came to this pub. First night was a Thursday. I ordered the fish and chips which were ok. Nothing spectacular. The scene was dead and there was maybe only 7-10 other people in the entire pub. Second night I came was on a Saturday. I only ordered drinks. There was a bigger crowd but barely, 15-20 people. Overall my opinion of this place is positive and yet I was disappointed that it wasn't better. It's in a great location. There's hotels and condominiums in the area all within walking distance. The atmosphere is great. The staff is awesome! It has so many positive aspects that should make it a regular hangout spot but for some reason it's failing. I'm giving it 5 stars because I feel it deserves better. People should give this place a shot. There is a dart board that is free to play which I think is awesome. A big patio area for large parties. The beer prices are very reasonable. Suggestion to the establishment: They have an AMI juke box, but on both nights the volume was turned down pretty low which kind of made me feel like I wasn't getting my money's worth. Turn it up!!! This place needs to figure out if it wants to be a restaurant that serves beer or be a bar that serves food. Personally I think it needs to realize that it needs to focus on being a bar. There's 15 other restaurants within walking distance from here and that food is 100 times better. This place should focus on getting the customers that leave those restaurants for after meal drinks.

    Stopped here enroute from SFO to the Central Valley, with a hungry family after a long flight. This…read morelooked like a good place to stop and refuel. We had a myriad of options with two splitting a big burger, one child enjoying sliders and myself with the Ahi tuna nachos. Mine was really good with plenty of fish but almost too much spicy sauce. I don't really know about the wontons as nachos, but it worked well enough. All the other meals were well received. The garlic fries were more popular than the regular ones. And realistically we only ever ate half of what we had. Service was quick enough and welcoming. 3.9 rounds to 4.

    I cannot thank Nora and the entire Metro City Team. We don't come here often but when we do we…read moreALWAYS have the best experience both with the delicious food but even better the welcoming team of Metro CIty! These days due to my declining health I cannot eat out much so after a full week of nothing but full of dr. appointments and my last one being today at El Camino Hospital my husband asked me where I wanted to have breakfast (I rarely eat breakfast) He had mentioned Metro City and I said "OF COURSE!" When we walked in Nora was doing everything and anything to ensure her guests were well taken care of.... We hadn't been to Metro City in over a year and she immediately remembered us and the last place we sat in the restaurant. I was floored at her care for us..... The food was SPECTACULAR as always!!!!!!!!! These days I am not to eat such good food but in my crazy head my mind was " GO BIG OR GO HOME!" Had the Murphy's Hash Benedict with hash browns. OUT OF THIS WORLD! You can't go wrong with anything on their menu! It has always not just been about the food but the overall experience! Nora has a heart of gold! I so look forward to going back!

    The extensive beer menu and abundance of TV screens were definite positives, but the cleanliness…read moreand food quality left much to be desired. They were packed during the games, though the line moved fairly quickly. If ordering only beer, orders were placed directly at the bar. The beer selection was displayed on screens above the ordering counter, though there were additional ciders and sours available upon request. Food came out quickly as the grill was constantly being reloaded. After ordering, I was given a pager that buzzed once everything was ready. The pick up station was located near condiment counters lined with half opened bottles of hot sauce, mustard, and mayonnaise. I did appreciate the ketchup variety, which included original, chipotle, and curry options. *Dragonfruit, Passionfruit Sour: pleasantly acidic and fruit forward. This unfortunately came from a can rather than the tap. I was offered a chilled glass, which I accepted, though the can itself was not refrigerated so the final pour ended up disappointingly lukewarm. *Onion Rings: disappointing batter execution. They were already half soggy despite us eating them immediately. The coating lacked airiness and everything had a one dimensional chewiness. I also wished both the batter and onion carried more sweetness and developed flavor. *Sweet Potato Fries: suffered from the same sogginess as the onion rings. The portion was generous for $8, though these largely served as a vehicle for the various ketchup options rather than standing on their own. Oddly enough, the women's bathroom was far cleaner than the dining area itself. Our table appeared unwiped when we sat down, and the sauce station was noticeably greasy. I ended up avoiding most of the condiments because the bottles had a visible and tangible film coating them. Unfortunately, I felt somewhat ill after finishing the meal and definitely noticed the effects afterward. St. John's has a strong beer program and great game day atmosphere, but the cleanliness issues were difficult to overlook. The entire space could benefit from a much more thorough deep clean. On top of that, the underwhelming quality of the appetizers made it hard to justify returning when even the simplest menu items lacked proper execution.
