Best Contemporary European Restaurants in Redwood City

We had a late lunch on a Saturday afternoon in the outside dining space. Service was attentive, bread with dipping oil and balsamic to start while we checked out the menu. A great choice of Craft Cocktails, the Evil Eye was delicious, Ketel One Peach & Orange Blossom Vodka, Blue Curaçao, Passion Fruit Purée, Lemon Juice and Coconut Syrup. Tzatziki with pita and Crispy Olives were perfect starters before our main course. The Seafood Paella was enough to share with a butterflied lobster tail, prawns, salmon, scallops, mussels, chorizo, tomato, peas, clams in a saffron broth was a perfect combination. The courses were spaced perfectly. The Greek Cheesecake was a work of art served with berries. We look forward to returning with friends and family.

The food was excellent! Very nicely presented. Lamb appetizer was not crispy (which turned out to be a good thing because it was moist and delicious.) Labneh was extraordinary! Ordered a second helping. Brussels sprouts, halibut and cocktails were also great. (Noteworthy that the decaf coffee was also surprisingly tasty.) Our waiter, Marco, was a joy!! Personable, sense of humor, worked with requests/comments to make sure we had what we needed, complemented good food choicds and made suggestions where appropriate. Really fantastic! Only negatives were 1) multiple requests to eek out pita bread one at a time for our party of 5, and 2) an odd, slightly bleach/fishy smell of the restaurant. Highly recommend and we will return soon.

Very nice lively ambience. Fantastic, flavorful food. I wish there were more non-pork options. Service was very good but imperfect because of the capacity of the restaurant versus the number of waiters, but as good as could be with that ratio. They probably need additional staff.

A very enjoyable Christmas lunch. Seeing you have British in your name, you could offer a more British option too. How to improve for next year - turkey as an option, real Christmas pudding, crackers. Nevertheless, we enjoyed the fixed price 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!
