Unfortunately the counter service has really gone downhill. I've been going here for years. Recent example of poor service: last week a service screw-up not only impacted me, but 3 other guests I brought with me. No apologies from the wait staff. One hour to get a simple order fixed. Specifics: Last week I placed an order to go in person at the counter, paid for it, and waited. And waited. And waited. Half an hour later I asked where my order was. The wait staff hadn't issued the order to the kitchen despite my having paid for it with a card which means the order is in their system. After 10 minutes, they found my order and "expedited" the order. 20 minutes later I got it. Total elapsed time: 1 hour. The 3 other people I was with waited patiently the entire time. I was very courteous to the wait staff. No appology from the wait staff for an obvious error by them. Astoundingly bad customer service.

This cafe is simply amazing. The cheesecake with blueberries has a delightful taste with an incredible sugar balance. I enjoy it with chamomile tea, which tastes as authentic as if it were freshly picked from the field. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

It was nice to revisit this old established cafe - I used to frequent every weekend when I lived in Menlo Park, so it was nice to see they’ve maintained the interior and the food is still delicious. The waitstaff bring your food out to your numbered seating. Seating can be tough as it is often crowded during peak hours. Handicap folks, kids and anyone who enjoy outdoor seating in the front patio can relax and enjoy a cappuccino and treat or a lunch at your leisure. There are so many changes on the mid-peninsula (El Camino lost Su Hong & Applewood, Mrs Fields…) and the formerly sleepy downtown Menlo Park is high end & much more vibrant to suit the taste of their affluent clientele.

I ordered the chimichurri chicken panini and it was good. Not outstanding, but good for a dinner. It’s a very heavy meal, so be prepared to take home leftovers. The cafe itself is very pretty. The seating area is a little cramped, but cozy in a way. You can see the bookstore next to the cafe. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5
