Best Contemporary European Restaurants in Portola Valley

The ambience at BBC is great. The service was satisfactory, but not stellar. The drinks were delicious and served very quickly. The hamburger had fantastic flavor, with a combination of sautéed onions and delicious sweet barbecue sauce, but was served slightly past medium-well. There was no pink. The lobster roll was nearly perfect, with the bread being light and buttery. The lobster meat was delicious, but overall, it was somewhat bland. There needed to be more flavor, maybe a light sauce. All that said, we enjoyed our visit and we're looking forward to going back again.

Chris provides exceptional service: warm, sincere, and above and beyond.

I love this place! The ambience was very lively, but not so loud that we couldn’t hear the live band playing outside. Everything we ordered came out pretty quickly, and that is impressive considering that we ordered nearly everything on the menu! My personal favorite is the whole branzino and lamb tagine, along with the grilled asparagus and patatas bravas on the side. Delicious!

Delicious food in a lovely space. Very pleasant evening

Elia is terrific. Been here dozens of times and never had a bad meal or drink. Great service and great ambience.
