Flores San Mateo - (Near San Mateo, CA)

Alma Rey The place is so cute, the food is tasty, beautiful, and creative. The drinks are yummy, so beautiful, and lots of variety. The service was on point ☝️ definitely a worthy experience for brunch. Every dish and drink was created with lots of thought behind it. We ordered K-Bomb Benedict, Grilled Chicken Avocado salad, Mascarpone Pancakes, Thai tea, and a Mocha Lava.

Tomas Cortijo Traditional Mexican reataurant with a great food selection. I love that they have a large patio seating area, great to just get appetizers and margaritas, or to have a relaxing lunch with friends. I loved their rib eye steak and their flautas.

Bachman-Sanderson Justin “JustnLove” This place is very welcoming, I stepped in the door and just felt like i was in the right place for a special treat. I ordered a soup because it was a chilly afternoon. And the soup was superb. They offer soup of the day with two to three choices. I was also offered to choose between a cup a bolw or bread bolw. So even though I wasnt spending a lot of money, the staff treated me so kindly, and the food was just right.

William Mao Been swinging by this spot more often lately—especially with the hotter weather, I’ve been seriously craving their noodles. It had been a while since my last visit, but I’m glad I came back. You order through a QR code at the table, and my go-to is the Deluxe Mazemen—basically a dry Japanese noodle bowl loaded with toppings. The flavors are deep, rich, and full of umami. It can get a little heavy, but that’s where the vinegar comes in—just add a splash to balance it out. The chashu pork in the deluxe is tender and flavorful, and the noodles are always cooked just right. Once you finish most of your noodles, you can ask for a free scoop of rice to mix with the leftover toppings—a perfect way to round out the meal. Lately, I’ve also been enjoying their broth (I think it’s chicken and pork based)—a warm, comforting finish after all that richness. Solid spot, definitely worth checking out if you’re craving something savory and satisfying.

Murillo Pontual I had brunch at Taste and Glory in San Mateo, and it was a great experience. The service was friendly and attentive, and our meals were absolutely delicious. The restaurant has a warm, inviting atmosphere that makes it perfect for a relaxed weekend brunch. I definitely recommend checking it out if you’re in the area!

Hitomi Benedetti The food options were amazing. I got the delicious fried chicken sandwich but was jealous of my nieces fired artichoke salad!! Portions were generous, wedge fries yummo. Ill be back! Oh! Almost forgot to mention my lavender mocktail. Refreshing!
