    It's been a while since we were at West Park, as always it does not disappoint. Food and service is always consistently good. The kitchen is always accommodating to modifications and special requests. We always appreciate the high level of service every time we come.

    Scottish Salmon, simply prepared over fresh veggies.

    I'm a repeat customer for the consistently good food, healthfully prepared, with covered and heated outdoor dining in the heart of San Carlos. Pleasant staff.

    This spot was just "Ok". The place wasn't very busy, but the service was slow...at least for us it appeared to be slow. It took awhile to get the drinks we ordered, then took longer for the food. Thankfully I was in good company & no other plans. It was a really nice day so we chose to sit outside with fresh air. The place is pretty nice looking & the food looked really good. We sat outside to enjoy some fresh air. The outdoor dinning area was really nice (Better than indoor if you ask me) The food presented well but was really lacking flavor/seasoning. Had a little salt & pepper been used when cooking it that could have made a difference. The food wasn't bad, but needed a flavor boost for sure. The service was slow, but the staff were cordial. I'm not against giving them another try, but this isn't somewhere I'm going out of my way to goto.

    Avocado and Egg salad

    We came for brunch and sat outside. We had the veggie omelet, avocado and egg salad and a side of bacon. Everything was tasty. Service was kind and helpful. Nice big portions and we were full afterwards. Beautiful decor inside and out,

    A little cozy dining experience- high quality food with great value for the price, friendly staff. Grilled cauliflower, crab cake, catch of the day. Strongly recommended

    Mussels

    I had a nice lunch here. The outside is done up very cute and it was a beautiful day. The mussels came out sizzling and were delicious. Maybe it would have been nice with some toast points too. The beet salad was also delicious and dressed just right. My only complaint was the cucumber lemonade - the lemonade used didn't taste very fresh, it had that fake lemonade flavor that I dislike. Otherwise everything else was pretty good.

    This review is solely on the food because the service was 5/5 We got a handful of appetizers, curried cauliflower, charcuterie board, octopus, and Brussels sprouts. I think the best was Brussels sprouts, but even that was just okay, not very crispy and too salty - this is a trend with the food (personal opinion) I got the Chilean sea bass and it was very salty, but the fish was cooked well. Others enjoyed their meal, so it might just be a personal taste thing - linguini with no clams (very limited vegetarian options), lamb shank, and short rib Pappardelle (very unsalted) I was underwhelmed with the food for the price point, but maybe try the lamb shank, others seem to like it

    potato leek soup, Fried Calamari, butternut squash gnocci
    Sophie L.

    Great dinner spot in San Carlos, perfect for large groups or date nights. As a local, this is definitely a spot my family and I visit often! The staff are always so friendly, ambience is lively and food is solid. Favorites are always their pork chop, burger, calamari, and their toffee bread pudding! This time I around I tried their potato leek soup and butternut squash gnocchi, both were delicious and comforting during this cold night! Overall recommend if you are looking for a dinner spot in san carlos!

    I got the cheesecake and it was so good super creamy and not too sweet. Everything tasted really fresh and high quality. I'd definitely come back again.

    Cheesecake and chocolate gelato

    This was an amazing experience! My server reese was charming with a fantastic smile and quick service. The food was delicious especially the calamari and cheesecake. I would definitely recommend and can't wait to come back!

    Three layer chocolate mousse cake

    Stopped by for dessert and it was DELICIOUS! Service was super quick and the staff are really great!

    seafood risotto and sweet potato fries

    Came here for Friday night dinner and the service is absolutely amazing! Our host Mia was incredibly welcoming right when we walked in and Jamie kept a great eye on our drinks and timing for food. Definitely get the seafood risotto :)

One of my favorite things about this winery is the table-side tasting experience, it feels so much more relaxed and elevated compared to the traditional tasting bar setup. You can truly sit back, take your time, and enjoy the wines at your own pace. The wines themselves are fantastic, and I appreciate the variety they offer. It's clear there's a lot of care and quality behind every pour. I also love that they have food available, which makes it easy to turn a tasting into a full experience. Their patio is another huge plus--spacious, inviting, and dog-friendly, which is perfect for me. Bringing my dog, Chanel along makes the experience even better. On top of all that, the service is always warm, attentive, and welcoming. You really feel taken care of here. If you're looking for a great local winery with amazing wine, a relaxed atmosphere, and thoughtful service, Domenico Winery is a gem. Highly recommend!

    You've probably seen Blade Gin or Rusty Blade Gin around the Bay. These two gins (and more) are…read moreproduced by Old World Spirits which operates out of a garage in an industrial park in Belmont. Don't judge just because it's an industrial park, this place is a tight, efficient operation and makes great use of it's space. It's got a huge copper still that makes everything from gin to rye whiskey to brandies to absinthe. On Friday nights you can get a tour and tasting for $15. Because of California law, spirits cannot be sold at the distillery, except wine/grape based brandies. The Blade gin is a citrusy gin with a lot of complexity but not much strong juniper flavor that turns most people off. The Rusty Blade is the same Blade gin that is aged in barrels which brings out more cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla. It's very much a winter spirit in my opinion. The pear eau de vie brandy really packs a punch with a lot of great pear flavor and though I'm not really a fan of eau de vies this one is a great one. Also, make sure you try the walnut liqueur, based on a Croatian family recipe, for something different. Finally, yes, absinthe, real absinthe, is now legal in the US and you can taste La Sorcière here. It's a great traditional absinthe with a lot of anise flavor. The distiller who gave us the tour and the tasting was really nice and knowledgable. It was a great experience and I encourage everyone to visit once.

The day of, they simply never showed up. Can you imagine showing up, pumped about your friend's bachelor party, and then the shitty feeling that follows because this place was too unprofessional to get their shit together? My friend contacted the manager Davorion, who at first was accommodating and offered us a free tasting to make up for their mistake. Told us they had us down for Saturday, not Friday. Then suddenly he got back to her a few days later, said that she had never paid and there was no confirmation. Funny, then why did they have us down for Saturday if they had no confirmation. My friend sent him a screenshot of THEIR confirmation email for the Friday appointment, so he went back to saying he'd give us a free tasting. Well, it's been weeks now and he won't respond to our emails to set up the appointment. Lousy customer service, they don't deserve anyone's business.
