Best Farm To Table Restaurants in San Mateo

I chose this restaurant for my husband’s birthday celebration due to a friends recommendation. From the moment we walked thru that giant golden brass door we were transported to a SUBLIME experience. I don’t even want to describe all the amazing things because the element of surprise is so important here - the service was exceptional, the food was SPECTACULAR - please try the oysters and the bone marrow!! OMG! And then the steaks but there are little surprises in the presentations and the “ tools” - you”ll see what I mean when you go- and please go here at least once in your lifetime! You will NEVER REGRET IT!!

We love camper from the incredible food, impeccable (and friendly) service, creative cocktails, and great atmosphere. Salads were delicious, and Potato-cursed halibut was phenomenal. Dessert is always a treat. I can’t wait to come back.

It was very pleasant to have staff treat us as if we were the only diners in the room—attentive, pleasant, prompt, congenial—it makes the meal so pleasant. The food, as usual, was outstanding from the traditional Flea Street biscuits to the after dinner chocolate, it was a joy to eat. Had the short ribs (excellent—tender, juicy, nice sides), the Oro salmon (high quality), the crab cake (better than usual and better than most competitors with its threads of crab, not just ground up compressed crab meat), an excellent consome, tasty and delicious with mushrooms (although a bit small), and the garden salad (although missing the avocado dressing advertised, but the quality of the greens was enough that we didn't complain). What would we do to improve? More choices of wine by the glass (we had to order a whole bottle to get a white wine we liked); more choices of dessert (only 3 on the menu); more popular imported brands of beer. We will certainly return.

Amazing food and amazing staff. Cannot recommend this place highly enough. You absolutely HAVE to give this a try even if you’re not a fan of Italian food. Their Margherita pizza is phenomenal as is their cheese board and bone marrow appetizer. This is a food experience you’ll likely not forget.

Food was great and lots of choices on the menu. Good drinks and wine menu as well. Service was excellent.
