    Iced americano
    Tammye B.

    Super quick service. I got the Asiago bagel with jalapeño cream cheese and iced America. The cream cheese was super chunky. The Iced American was strong and refreshing. Great location right in the heart of downtown Los Altos.

    WTH is this.... it was supposed to be an open faced tuna melt - no onions, no tomatoes, major fail on all our orders this morning

    Major Issues- this chain has gone downhill! All 6 of our orders today placed through DoorDash were incorrect. I don't know if it's a training issue but this is not the first time we encountered this same issue. Last month our order was also incorrect, DoorDash resolved for the most part but I thought we would give them a second shot! Our food was spoiled and clearly not ok for consumption but the clerks packaged it up for DoorDash to deliver! I will not return to this location or posh bagel ever again!

    This is not a bagel.  I'm not sure it is but I know what it's not.

    They're not even bagels anymore but some disgusting slab of what resembles a white bread roll. Gross, literally had to throw it out.

    Parking is plentiful. Staffs were quick and efficient. Indoor had a lot of seating and a vast menu. Bagel was good, nothing amazing. Soft and fresh. The eggs and such were definitely sitting. I believe the eggs used in my breakfast sandwich were those microwaveable egg as it had a plastic-like taste to it yet rubbery. We also got the salmon lox with cream cheese sandwich. There were a mere 2 piece of salmon and nothing much else beside the cream cheese.

    Burnt bagel

    Could've been better. Got there in the wee bits of the morning when they opened..employees were obviously still sleepy (I don't blame them), kind, and pretty fast at getting my bagel out. The unfortunate thing is they didn't toast me another bagel and decided to just wrap this burnt bagel and hand it off until it was too late to figure out that my $10 lox and cream cheese bagel was definitely crispier than crisp. Lol. The lox was good, but more in the chunkier, fattier end... the cream cheese was delectable, and the sprouts were fresh... but overall 3/5 for the presentation and taste.

    The egg bagel with bacon and avocado was very good. But have to say what would bring me back again and again is the Posh orange juice. Assuming it is fresh squeezed and at the counter on ice , very best OJ I've had. The interior is basically clean and it was crowded by what seems to be mostly locals so must be consistent good. Lots of staff for fast and friendly service and a great menu to pick from. Enjoy eating inside or outside seating is available. Will be back for sure !!!

My boyfriend and I split the garden omelette meal (which we ask for as a scramble instead). There are jams on the table and a variety of hot sauces. We ask them to provide sugar free syrup and they bring it to the table. Brunch egg dishes come with crispy hash browns and a choice of a side of toast or get this, pancakes! So you get a whole extra order if you choose the buttermilk pancakes as a side. I see people come in with their kiddo and order an omelette and give them the pancakes. Aside from Spot Pizza across the street which sells delicious affordable slices for lunch, you won't find many meal deals on this street. The folks who work at this Holder's are friendly and on top of things while respecting your space. Your coffee cup will not be empty for long. They are well equipped to serve older folks and have accessible tables at both the front and rear entrances. Lots of regulars here. The place is always bright and clean and has booths as well as stand alone tables which can be put together to accommodate larger groups. It's a great no frills, restaurant which consistently serves good food and seats folks promptly all day long.

When we arrived we were seated immediately (we were the first people in the restaurant for dinner). The menu is varied so there was something for each of the four of us. My wife had the Patty Melt ($18) with extra grilled onions. It was juicy and delightful. I had the Tri Tip Steak, medium rare, with extra vegetables instead of the normal mashed potatoes & vegetables ($30). The steak was perfectly prepared and delicious. I asked for some Parmesan cheese for the al dente veggies, which added to the flavor. Our friends had the Shrimp Avo Salad ($21) and the Reuben Sandwich ($19). The Reuben was very tasty and the shrimp salad had many large shrimps on it. Most of the tables were in booths, but there are several normal tables with movable chairs, which we find to be more comfortable.

    I was intrigued by Tal Palo after reading about it on a couple food sites. It was an…read moreunconventional restaurant concept that had me very curious. So a few days after returning from an overseas trip, I made a lunch reservation with a friend. Apparently, reservations are required if you want a proper meal experience. At $35 per person for lunch, including tip but excluding drinks and additions, it still seemed like good value. Finding parking during lunch time in downtown Los Altos was surprisingly difficult. There were no spots available on the Main Street, so I had to park in the lot behind the buildings. As I walked inside, I admired the high ceilings, curved alcoves and glass-enclosed dining room by the entrance. The entire space seemed to be illuminated by a central skylight. Aaron is a co-owner of Tal Palo along with his partner, Chef Adriana. He greeted and complimented me on my Mikkeller Taipei t-shirt. Aaron told us he was once the co-owner of an Oakland bar specializing in Belgian ale called The Trappist and subsequently knew Mikkel's brother, Jeppe, who founded Evil Twin Brewery quite well. It was cool to meet a fellow artist and Renaissance man. Fittingly, the beautiful space was largely designed by Aaron. We had our choice of seating. It didn't seem as if there were any two tables and chairs that were alike. Each part of the dining room was unique. There's a really nice patio in the back with a cool huge mural on the wall that is undoubtedly popular during warmer months. We chose a nice broad two top table near the entrance, lit brightly by the skylight above it. Chef Adriana introduced herself and brought by what was essentially an elote muffin, and offered it as an optional appetizer. We took her up on it. It was delicious and buttery with the texture of corn kernels, not simply pureed into a batter. I also ordered a Cafe de Olla, which was pleasantly sweet and blended with cinnamon and spices. She then brought a plate with skillfully prepared green salad. It was then clear that each dish was meant to be shared family-style. The portion-size of each dish is about the size of an individual portion, but there were three dishes included in the lunch course. I could see how this might be an issue for those who eat larger portions, leaving them unsatisfied. Me and my friend don't generally eat a ton, so this was perfectly fine for us. Next up was the highlight of the meal, Chilaquiles Verde. The egg was perfectly fried atop tortilla chips that still had a bit of crispness to them. The tomatillo salsa was a perfect balance of flavor, tanginess, spice and temperature. It was a superb dish that outpaces any chilaquiles that I've been able to find locally, and I've certainly been trying out many for the past six months in search of the best one. I think Chef Adriana's version at Tal Palo may be the winner. There was one more interesting dish remaining: fried quesadillas served with a creamy red beet mole sauce. The quesadillas were light and fluffy, made from masa rather than flour. The beet mole sauce had pine nuts and sesame seeds and several other ingredients blended into it. Very unique and creative rendition unlike any mole I had ever tried. The overall experience at Tal Palo was very unique. There is no set menu, and you are served whatever Chef Adriana has prepared that day. So one needs to approach this restaurant with an open mind and leave preconceptions at the door. As I mentioned earlier, the shared portions might not be enough for people with a higher caloric intake. If these are showstoppers, this is probably not the right place for you. I personally really enjoyed the concept and experience. I look forward to trying their dinner course and going to their workshops for things like making tamales.

Because they don't take reservations for parties that large, we were told to wait an 1 hour and 45 minutes. We didn't mind waiting, as we weren't that hungry at the time, but definitely something to keep in mind if you don't have a reservation! The table ordered their famous artichokes, which were fine but nothing to write home about. I knew about their lack of vegetarian items beforehand, so I wasn't surprised to see that they only had one vegetarian item (The Proud Vegetarian). I was told that it would come with vegetables, ciabatta, and 3 sides of my choosing (which was a nice surprise because I love sides). I ended up choosing the broccolini, fries, and a kale salad. However, when the dish came out, the vegetables they mentioned were missing, and there was a deviled egg in its place (I don't eat eggs). I was a little confused but I didn't want to turn it into a big deal. We also ordered their banana cream pie, which isn't my favorite dessert. My banana-loving friends also didn't understand the hype around the food. Overall, I would give this place two stars based on my experience but I decided to bump it up to three because of a) how much my omnivore friends seemed to enjoy their entrees and b) the ambiance was nice and I liked the vibes of the establishment.

However, I will say that one good thing that has come from this movement is the plethora of innovative gluten free bakeries and eateries that serve up tasty products. I first learned about Sweet Diplomacy when my neighbors gave me some cupcakes from here that tasted amazing. When I looked them up, I was surprised to learn that they were in Los Altos as I live nearby and had never heard of them. The shop is very cute and homely and feels as if you are in someone's home kitchen. Although they seem to specialize in cupcakes, they also serve a number of other gluten-free and even vegan items. I should note that this bakery focuses on more desserts (ie cookies, cakes, tarts, etc.) rather than pastries (ie croissants and buns). I never thought that my new favorite go-to bakery would be a gluten-free one. As a Mountain View resident, I must say that it is also nice not to have to trek to Palo Alto in order to get some tasty cupcakes!

My question: Is the brownie very rich? The response: It's like any other brownie. I'm not a fan of chocolate items that are super rich, and some brownies are fudgy, but some are more mild. I'd expect someone working there to be a bit more helpful and descriptive. I ended up not getting a brownie. Lowering my rating because the service was subpar, and the Ube flavor was nonexistent in the Ube Black Sesame cookie. The Gingersnapperdoodle was still yummy like before, but had a more sandy texture than last time.
