Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Palo Alto

Celebrated my engagement with some close friends. The staff were so sweet!

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 nice, comfortable restaurant in downtown Palo Alto. The food is great and the service and atmosphere are excellent.

Our dinner and service was outstanding from start to finish. A gracious greeting from our server offering us a varied menu with tempting specials. We dined in a lovely, quiet room not bothered by loud music or noisy patrons We started with a nice kale salad and followed with scallops and the duck special -- both tasty, attractive and perfectly prepared. We finished with hot coffee and an excellent tiramisu. Very reasonably priced for the quality of everything we received

I hadn’t been to Evvia in years and it was so great to go back. My friend and I shared a bunch of appetizers: meatballs, octopus, roasted beets and the butternut squash. The octopus was fantastic as were the meatballs. We each had a glass of wine and the whole meal was $100. Will definitely do that again.
