Best Restaurants for Local Ingredients in Portola Valley

Have been here many times since 2017. The food is amazing and so are the drinks! Service is great too. We are vegetarians and there are lot of choices. The queso fundido, the chips , huitlacoche tacos, the tres leches cake were all fantastic!

Sat at the bar and Stephen was awesome. The food was flavorful and interesting while being very down to earth and approachable. We came on Valentine’s Day so it was a set menu but the stand outs were scallop stuffed mushrooms, salt and pepper octopus, milk bread and wagyu sirloin. Can’t wait to come back.

We had a great time celebrating Valentine's Day at Mistral - we hadn't been in years and just live down the street. The prix fixe menu was lovely, and there was plenty of choice for us. Food was all well-prepared - I especially enjoyed my lobster risotto, and my husband especially enjoyed his poached pear salad. The service was lovely, too, and we really loved sitting out on the patio by the fireplace and under the heat lamps. Our only comment is that we still find the price to be a bit high. But we still enjoyed ourselves!

A gem in Palo Alto , excel all around cuisine , services, warms welcome super services & beautiful cozy venue👍👏. The owner/manager is one of the best, gracious, accommodating, remember you & your likes👍👏. It is a must go for any occasion👍👏🌹

Our server - who has been at Left Bank for a long time, was simply fabulous. They even brought my lunch companion a birthday cake with a candle. Everything was very good (expensive, however, but that is getting to be the norm).
