About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Good for special occasions
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'.

    This is a delicious spot for fresh pasta and other well-prepared courses. It is not the place to go if you want a leisurely meal or lingering conversation. The service was very attentive, although we felt "rushed" to finish up so that the restaurant could turn the table for the next diner.

    Wow. As usual a superb meal, great ambience and the waitstaff were knowledgeable and approachable. Delicious from antipasti to secondi and dulce! Started with chopped salad Che Fico, on to the crab ravioli with lemon sauce (so so good) and then a pizza Margherita! The salad is large and fed three of us. The crab stuffed ravioli like pasta in a lemon sauce was sublime and the pizza margherita was awesome. The crust is done to perfection! Highly recommended.

    Hi Linda, We're thrilled to hear that you had another fantastic experience at Che Fico Parco Menlo. We're glad that you enjoyed so many of the delicious items on our menu, especially the Casoncelli pasta. Dungeness crab season is over for now, but we have many seasonal changes coming to the menu. Your high recommendation means a lot to us. We hope to see you again soon for another sublime dining experience! Best regards, Robert Lindstrom, GM

    It definitely seemed that the ratio of wait staff to patrons were low inside the restaurant. We were waiting for a while to get served and then get our check. The waiter was unable to explain in detail what the dishes were. Overall, it was a poor experience.

    Great restaurant! The menu is well balanced with many choices but not too many! The chopped salad is excellent as is the focaccia and hand pulled mozzarella. Their specialty is the clams steamed in sourdough like a calzone-amazing!! The halibut and the Carmelle pasta were delicious. And the cookies they give you with your bill are to die for. The decor is lovely. You can sit inside or out and be super comfortable. Love this restaurant.
