Best Lunch Restaurants in Palo Alto

We had the most delicious enjoyable Christmas day dinner. Each taste was amazing. We loved the guacamole, the posole with its complex broth, the barbacoa lamb, the caramel banana cake, the bunelo dessert and the special treat of corn pancakes brought to our table. Even the tempura tofu was good. I liked that they didn't ask us to tell them our choices for the second course until we finished the first ones. The pace was very good. Such a nice dinner experience and the fixe prix way of determining it by the cost of the entree was fair and very reasonable compared to other restaurant offerings for fixe prix for Christmas day.

The whole experience was fabulous. Our server, Andy, made the entire experience so much more enjoyable and adapted the courses to each of our respective palates. every course they brought out was divine, and truly food like we had never had before. 100/10 experience, would highly recommend to anyone considering!

All the dishes were great. We tried the Prix Fixe menu for lunch. Good selection to choose from.

What a good dinner experience! The food, the ambiance, service -everything. The host was very warm and welcoming which actually kick-starts your dinner experience on a good note. Everything we tried on the menu was delicious and so flavorful. Their lamb is really out of this world. Wine list (bottle and by the glass) is big and spans a range of $$ which gives options. Desserts were great too and different than what we’ve tried (same type). It’s a bit on the expansive side. Overall, an amazing dinner experience and will def go back again.

Local Union has wonderful, great,quality food. Service is always excellent. They have a great variety to choose from and love that they brunch choices (scrambles, benedicts, and omlettes) served until 3 every day!
