Free parking, quaint downtown Los Altos, nice mix of shops & restaurant all around. Decor is warm, modern, casual, seating is quit pleasant and comfortable. Service is efficient & friendly. Open kitchen, not a big menu but a lot to like, food is well prepared, nicely presented, and delicious. Honestly the place is very popular and in part makes it quit noisy. Nevertheless, the food, the service, the comfortable decor, and friendly vibe provide a wonderful dining experience.

Los Altos Grill has always been tasty. Parking fairly easy in the adjacent muni lots, greeted immediately upon entry and customarily order a cocktail while you wait a few mins. The place is 25% sit down bar where you can enjoy the full menu while partaking in the hub bub of Los Altos. It has the comfort of a local restaurant with the upscale dim lighting, open kitchen feel of a date night win. There’s some house specialty cocktails, and a simple wine list. Food menu hasn’t changed much over the year but you’ve got some solid choices-French dip, rib eye, burgers and more. This night I had the French dip which is one of my favorites and delicious. The wife had the rib eye and it was cooked to proper temp, tender and delish. Both meals came with amazing French fries and fry seasoning. Yum! For desert, I was torn between the Oreo cookie ice cream sandwich or the hot fudge sundae-tonight the Oreo sandwich won (see pic). On our latest visit (7/25) It seemed we were being rushed to order, eat and adios, which I thought was a little peculiar based upon the occupancy but our server (Lexi) was attentive during our date night. Bathrooms were clean and tidy. Another great experience at Los Altos Grill. Make reservations on their website.

We were on our way home from a road trip and decided to stop here and order takeout. This place was pretty busy for dinner. Upon walking in, it had a very inviting, intimate, kind of vibe. With the fireplace, it reminded me of an old school restaurant like Peppermill or Hungry Hunter, but more modern. The place was busy and packed, but the people who worked there were super nice and helpful. I walked past the bar and placed my order. I walked around and took a few pictures. I loved how, on my way to the restroom, I could see where they made the rotisserie chickens. The next thing I knew, my order was ready. We ordered: 1. Rotisserie chicken - Juicy and flavorful chicken. It was perfectly seasoned that it didn't need sauce. 2. Broccolini- My favorite side of choice. I liked that they had it pre-cut in easy to eat pieces. It was nice and lightly cheesy. I wished it had a little more garlic. Other than that, it was perfection. 3. Cornbread bites - Moist yummy pieces of goodness. I liked the little crunch on the outside. The food and service were amazing. I can't wait to come back and try the beef ribs and desserts.

Well isn’t this a nice spot! We had a reservation at 8pm, got there earlier and were able to have a few cocktails in the waiting area. Conrad was our server and he was lovely and very attentive! We brought our own wine BYOB :) highlight for me was the rib eye in pineapple a special for that evening and the horseradish pairing with the French dip sandwich is soooo good.

We had lunch to celebrate Father’s Day. Service was slow probably due to the occasion. The French Dip was very very delicious. You got to try the smoked salmon! I have had smoked salmon before. But it’s the best of the best since I had it the first time in 1985.

Had a wonderful girls dinner at Los Altos Grill. The food was sooo good, but what really made the night was the amazing service and great atmosphere. Perfect spot for a fun and relaxing evening.
