From Back Home Hospitality comes Che Fico Parco Menlo, an evolution of Che Fico specifically created for the Peninsula located at Springline in Menlo Park.

Che Fico Parco Menlo takes inspiration from its critically acclaimed sister restaurant in San Francisco while adding new creations to its menu of Italian fare with California influences. Dishes of hand-rolled pasta, naturally fermented sourdough pizza, antipasti, meat, and fish celebrate the team’s’ passion for Italian cuisine and their dedication to using the best seasonal products from farmers and purveyors in the Bay area.

With a vibrant design by Jon De La Cruz, Che Fico Parco Menlo will be the premier destination for both business and social events with private dining options for up to 70 guests. In addition to the dining room, there is an all-season outdoor patio covered by a custom-built pergola with fans for summer nights and heaters for Menlo park 'winters'.

    Food: outstanding, with minor criticisms: portions small; choices limited (with exception of extensive wine list); pricey. Service: impeccable, with friendly, knowledgeable waiters. Ambience: no white tablecloths, but nice marble tabletops instead. Comfortable seating. More than willing to rectify mistakes (which were not significant in any case). Readily provided voucher for extra time in the garage. In short, a winner, but be prepared to pay for it.

    This was a very disappointing visit. The service started well but was overall awful. They brought us focaccia that was obviously sitting there because it wasn't warm. The salad seemed off. The pastas were fine and eggplant was good but service was not good. Disappointing and will not visit again for awhile...

    Fantastic hot focaccia bread with a marinara dipping sauce. Side dish of kubacha squash was quite good and healthy too! Gnocchi with truffles is melt in your mouth delicious. Fun cocktails. Service was attentive and discreet.

    Food was good as before, but our bread with the clams were slightly burnt and our chicken dish was a bit on the drier side than what I had a few weeks ago. Service was good, but once all our dishes were out, it was hard to get our waiter’s attention after. However, it was fully packed, so totally understandable.

    Called the restaurant to cancel because I had Covid and they wouldn’t. So I sent my wife, kids and parents to eat there and we moved the Rez to 5 ppl. They sat them on a table meant for 4 with no space, the outside was cold since the heaters weren’t working and when my wife requested some help, they ignored her. For the cost, not sure if that’s the experience you’re looking for… We have been to SingleThread as well as Panda Express :-) and like both. So can definitely be fair about our ratings. Very sub par on expectations and the food was just above average. Just so tired right now, can’t be bothered to reach out to the manager and talk to him/her about all of this.
