Enjoyed a lovely dinner here with coworkers! Parking in downtown Mt View is kinda nuts but the garage is close so def park there. Bread is fresh and a plenty! We had the bouillabaisse, beef and mash, pizza, ravioli and all was amazing. Service was also super friendly and a great overall atmosphere!

Chose this place for our Valentine’s Day lunch. The restaurant is located in the downtown so parking is scarce and have to walk 10-15 min depending on where you parked. The restaurant looks small from outside but it has lot of seating space and since we went on a weekday only 3-4 tables were occupied. Started our lunch with Cream of Mushroom soup which was really good esp in this cold and rainy weather. They provided a basket of bread with a herb oil for side. Ordered L-Fromage De Chevre Aux Pistaches for starter, Grilled salmon for entree, La Fontaine pizza, Panna cotta & Lava cake for dessert. The started was really good. It had the pistachio crunchiness and the slight sweetness from the caramelised onion and honey. I was not much impressed with the grilled salmon. The quantity seemed less for the price and it came with veggies and mashed potato. The pizza had the thinnest crust I ever had with the right amt of tomato sauce and little topping. They were cut into 9 pieces and we took most of them home. The highlight was the dessert. The lava cake was yummy and came with sea sat caramel ice cream which just complimented the cake and carried it to the next level. The panna cotta comes with a berry sauce which we asked them to skip for us. The texture was so good and the right flavor. Overall a good date place, friendly staff, adequate seating, just above average pricing and quiet ambience.

Gourmet food, reasonable prices. Choosing a meal is the hardest part. Grilled squid yum, not fishy at all, more steak-like. Good portions, we were both full and happy. Cordon blue was tastey, mashed potatoes creamy. Braised short rib no knife needed, fell apart with a fork. Polenta was a nice accompaniment. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

What a wonderful place! We were in town for my son's PhD defense, but hadn't been able to find a place for our celebratory dinner in Palo Alto. Since La Fontaine in Mountain View was able to accommodate our large party on short notice, we took a chance on it. ..and are we glad we did! Excellent service and personal attention from the manager and delicious food. Who needs the crowds and long waits in PA when La Fontaine is just a short drive away?!
