Tootsies At The Stanford Barn -Food CA (Near Palo Alto)

4 /5 Bruce S.: Its a small restaurant with a couple of tables inside and most of the tables outside, which is where we sat for lunch today. We had the Tuna Panino made with Tuna, capers, radishes with arugula and hard boiled egg. The Pollone is organic chicken breast, endive slaw. capers, onions over a ciabatta roll. Both were very tasty and the chicken breast was very tender and moist. We also ordered some plain croissants and bombolini to go. We ate one of the bomolinis at the restaurant and it was really good!

3 /5 Piccolos Daughter: Food was pretty good, area was nice, service could have been better.

5 /5 Robert: Delicious well-made food. A casual plave to order lunch or breakfast at the counter and have your food or maybe espresso drink brought to a table inside or outside amidst the blooming lavender. The food is authentic but fresh California-Italian hot sandwiches and salads. I enjoy the porchetta sandwich with small side of green salad and the fried chicken sandwich, and every time a properly made cappuccino. The staff are gentle, service-oriented, considerate and friendly. I’ve been going here for 10 years and always look forward to a stop when I’m on the peninsula. There is ample parking. A nice place to meet friends and have some space. Occasionally the pleasantness is brought down by medical staff who think it’s a great place for a conference call.

2 /5 L O: I ordered the beet salad. It had an absurd amount of beet for one person to eat in one sitting, and very little watercress. I ate about a third of the beet and left the rest, while trying to scrape out what little watercress and cheese was there. Disappointing considering the price. Not a balanced salad.

2 /5 LUZ MANNIE: After posting my review I recd a snarky reply from the owner. I am just sharing my experience. The snarky reply didnt help. The owners feedback is quite disappointing. And, you are right, we will not be returning. CIAO! Its close by Stanford Hospital, which is by some outpatient medical clinic, I believe. Theres a restaurant next to it, like a wine tasting place. The place is hard to find. Parking is limited. Theres an inside and outside seating areas, but limited space. You order your food, and theyll bring it to your table. Sandwich and salad is around $15+. Its kinda a self-service place. You get your own water. No one will ck on you. Yogurt with granola is the only thing I liked on the menu for $10+. Their muffins are "healthy." This place is mostly salad and quick bite to eat sandwiches. If you dont want to go far, this would be the place.
