    Food was interesting and delicious. We were delighted by all the dishes, even if we didn't love every component. Service was attentive but a bit "cold" though this was not an issue. Overall, a delightful meal. Would highly recommend a visit.

    Cascal continues to be a top notch lunch or dinner spot. The Spanish food is lively and profusely diffuse. While the prices have inched up,so it has in the other fine restaurants in Silicon Valley. I will return!

    A friend of mine and I usually go out for Christmas lunch. We’ve tried a number of restaurants in the Bay Area and Scratch never disappoints. They fixed price menu has a lot of choices, and is delicious. Their cocktails and full wine list has something for everyone.. I should really make a point to come back on a non-holiday to see the regular menu.

    We met friends, shared some small plates and had mains as well. All the dishes were delicious, with high quality ingredients (and we’re foodies who know how to cook)! We loved that it was quiet enough to converse. It is attached to a hotel in a somewhat off-the beaten path location but it’s worth a visit (and open on days when many restaurants are closed, like Mondays). The ambiance is very nice inside. A hidden gem!
