    I had a business lunch at Courthouse 2021. Service and food were very good. Try the lobster bisque. It’s fantastic. It was a good place for a business lunch because it wasn’t too noisy. I highly recommend Courthouse 2021!

    Very poor service. Significantly understaffed. Food quality has declined. Menu in OpenTable does not match their current menu, therefore was very disappointed.

    My husband and I went to Courthouse 2021 to celebrate a belated anniversary. We started with the Brussels sprouts and a wedge salad (both very tasty). Our mains were 10 ounce prime rib and lamb shank with risotto with truffle fries and creamed spinach for sides plus bearnaise sauce. All very, very tasty and tender meat. Generous portions! We finished with the chocolate studded bread pudding with was creamy and perfect (dust a tiny bit of salt on it to enhance it). One of the big positives is they have a couple different mock tails which is great for us non drinkers. Service was simply wonderful.

    The was the worse food experience ever. The service was so bad, everyone around was complaining about the time it takes to get an attention, get the dishes. 40 minutes for the first course (simple green salad, which was with garlic although I mentioned several times that I’m allergic to garlic ), then the main course ( filet mignon) was really bad so that you can’t chew it. Me and my colleague couldn’t eat it. There were two options for dessert on the special valentine deal. One of them wasn’t available. They changed 100 dollars for each for the worst food experience. Please make sure others won’t do the same mistake!!!

    Upon arriving we were told there was only a set menu. I have a special diet that made it so I wouldn’t have been able to eat most of the things on their menu. I was willing to just go ahead and make the best of it but after waiting over five minutes for even a glass of water or somebody from the staff to approach our table, my husband and I decided to leave. The restaurant was pretty empty. Normally this restaurant is very good but they had some issues on Valentine’s Day.

    We arrived on time, and the restaurant turned us away on Valentines Day evening because they said some employees did not show and the kitchen could not keep up with orders. On one of busiest nights, we had to walk around Redwood City to beg for a table at a restaurant. Horrible.

    Had reservations for Valentines day and got notified upon arrival that they ran out of food and/or didn't have enough servers. Saw several other groups turned away as well. Heads up notice would have been appreciated. Will not be attempting to eat here again.

    The restaurant cancelled our reservation when we got there because they were short staffed at the kitchen. They have been turning around people for a while. It was Valentine’s Day and it was a horrible experience as where do you find a restaurant open on Valentine’s Day at 7:30pm on a Friday with an open reservation??? They should have told us when they found out, not when we got there. It was clear that it didn’t happen then.

    Non existent. We showed up on time (driving 15+ miles in the bay area) and was immediately told they would not be able to sit us due to shortage of staff. We did not receive any cancellation notification. We even had one of their customers walk up to us and state"I've been waiting over an hour for a salad and still haven't received it". As bad as I felt for them, a timely cancellation notice would have been nice as not only traffic was bad BUT it was dinner for Valentine's day. What a disappointment.

    Made reservation for Valentines Day. Showed up on time just to be told that we could not be seated and served because of some problems with staff and chef asked for no more new patrons. No heads up, no notification, nothing. Needless to say, pretty disappointed given that it was our meal on Valentine's Day!
