Best Restaurants for Afternoon Tea in Portola Valley

The food and service at Nobu can’t be beat. Every dish, spot on perfect. Our server & team were phenomenal. He curated our food selections & really nailed it. Food portions are small. Works for me but gets expensive trying to satiate a young guy. I’d love to see the “tacos” be sized for at least two bites. We ate in the atrium area at Nobu Palo Alto. It is probably lovely in the summer when you can see the garden. On a chilly, rainy November night, it felt a bit like being in the overflow area. Could perhaps be made more inviting with a little attention.

Very quick service, very polite, good portions, good quality food and good flavors

Every server was kind, helpful and accommodating . They took measures to meet our every need . When the wind kicked outdoors they asked if we wanted to move indoors or have a heater brought over. We didn’t even ask . We must have interacted with 6 people and each and every one of them was wonderful.

It was a lovely and awesome experience! One of THE best restaurant I had so far for my birthday!!! Definitely a restaurant that I would love to come back!! The chef and our host are super nice and generous! Every single dish and their dining wares are OhLaLa!! It will soon be a Michelin Star restaurant for sure!!!!

We had a nice time celebrating a birthday. We had a reservation for the Enchanted Tea. Everything was gorgeous and displayed beautifully. The birthday serenade was fun and energetic. This location is a great neighborhood gem. Great photo opportunities.
