Kemuri Japanese Barú - (Near Redwood City, CA)

Nes Borne Good experience when we stopped over during our road-trip. Ordered drinks and they were the usual fare. Restrooms clean but coded - ask employee for number. Parking sufficient and there is a drive through.

Evie Harper This place was fantastic! So many different spaces to dine in so it suits every need whether you’re coming for lunch with a group of two or you want to have a get together. It’s a beautiful space with fantastic parking lot. Conveniently not far from the highway Staff was super friendly, and I love their designated parking spots for their employee of the month and shift leads. What a great way to encourage and support your staff. Oh, and the food. The food was phenomenal!

Salim Ali Khan We visited Anatolian Kitchen in Palo Alto for a team dinner, and it turned out to be a great evening all around. A big plus right off the bat was that there’s a public parking lot less than a minute’s walk away, which makes visiting very convenient.Levant was an amazing host who took excellent care of our table throughout the night being attentive, friendly, and always on top of things. Everyone at the table had a wonderful time. We started by ordering a mix of appetizers for the table, and they set the tone perfectly: 3-combo appetizer platter – an absolute standout; fresh, flavorful, and beautifully balanced. Everybody enjoyed the contents with the bread that was served. Falafel – crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, and very satisfying Pan-fried calamari – tender and well seasoned Beet salad and Anatolian salad – fresh, vibrant, and refreshing Every appetizer was excellent, but the combo platter clearly stole the show. The main course spread was impressive, with something for everyone: Iskender – rich, comforting, and full of flavor Chicken Adana – bold, juicy, and well spiced Vegetable moussaka – hearty and comforting Grilled chicken shish – tender and flavorful Grilled salmon – perfectly cooked and fresh Grilled lamb shish – juicy and delicious Whole Branzino – absolutely amazing; this was my order and I loved every bite. Vegetarian turlu – (Stewed tomatoes, eggplant, potatoes, bell peppers, zucchini, and carrot served with rice pilaf) well-balanced and satisfying We ended the evening with three orders of family-style desserts, and the desserts were truly standout, rounding off the meal on a high note. I also placed a separate to-go order that included a mixed grilled platter and grilled lamb shish. While the food itself was excellent and tasted just as good at home, the only downside was being charged a large party fee, even though this was a separate personal to-go order. That aside, the quality and flavor were still top-notch, with clear 5-star food written all over it. Overall, Anatolian Kitchen delivers exceptional Turkish cuisine, generous portions, and great service. Minor billing hiccup aside (for the to go order which ideally should have been separate from the table), this was a wonderful experience, and it’s a place I’d happily recommend and return to.

Sophia Acree I just had dinner there this evening, with me and my friends and we all had an amazing experience. Staff was really welcoming and friendly, and our server Hailey was awesome!!! After we went to the bar for some drinks and the bartender was super sweet and makes really good drinks. Overall an amazing experience great atmosphere.

Greg R Back for a second time, and the 8oz Filet Mignon didnt disappoint! This time I paired it with the prawns and the fantastic twice-baked potato. Seriously, this steak is a standout. The gorgonzola butter is a game-changer, adding a wonderful depth of flavor to the already perfectly seasoned and cooked (medium-rare) steak. The twice-baked potato was also spot on and delicious. The minestrone soup was another highlight - perfectly seasoned and a joy to eat.

matthew villegas Black bear is pretty consistent with their food and it’s good. Our server tonight was Bradley and probably the best service we have had. He greeted us as we walked in and sat us immediately. Introduced himself and told us about the specials and difference in menus, got us started on drinks and came back to take our order. This guy had multiple tables but consistently checked on us for any refills and how our food was tasting. I saw him and heard him giving the same service to every table. Excellent service and wished us happy holidays and thanked us for coming in. Hopefully Bradley is your next server.
