Barefoot Coffee Roasters

The coffee here is delicious. I have hung out here on several occasions and the service has always been friendly. But the most important thing for me at a coffee house is good coffee and Barefoot fits the bill.
They catered a party for my mother tonight and it was fantastic. The guests raved about the food and there was a prefect amount---even a little bit leftover, but not excessively so.
They cooked memelas to order and brought a lot of pre-prepared banquet style food. One of the items was oven roasted cauliflower and it was a surprising standout dish. The food was all obviously fresh and the staff there to help with the party was fantastic.
I would have given five stars if it hadn't been for the difficulty in communication before the party. Phone calls and e-mails often went unanswered and although the party went off with a hitch, this aspect made it hard to feel confident in the days before the party.

My nephew had a birthday party this weekend. He turned 6 and LOVES legos. He had a "lego master" party in a San Francisco park and this company brought a ton of legos to the park.
The kids worked on a battletrack 'monorail' project which was exciting and easy for the 6 year olds to build and learn about engineering at the same time.
The kids had a blast, the company was very organized and the teachers were very nice and patient.
This was a birthday party where learning was the main attraction. The 6 year olds were so enthralled with the lego project that the cake and the presents took a back seat to the activity. Now that is a great party!

I did one of the hardest things I have ever had to do today. I put my beloved dog of 15 years to sleep. He has a brain tumor and was starting to suffer and I made the tough decision.
Samuel and Nancy are two of the nicest, professional people I have ever met. They are a husband and wife team and are both vets.
They talked to me, quelled my fears, explained the process and comforted me throughout the entire ordeal. They are compassionate and good at their job.
I cannot tell you how grateful I was to be able to let go of my pet at home while he was surrounded by familiar smells, people and memories instead of going into a vet's office.
I was having doubts before I made my final decision and they helped me through the process and made me feel like I was making the humane, correct choice.
They are a bit more expensive than going to the vet, but to me it was well worth the expense.
They even gave me hugs at the end and I found that comforting.
Spruce is going to be missed, but I am glad that his final moments were made easier by these two great people.

I am a big fan of the fish tacos. They are outstanding. Fresh, hot pieces of fish with a great sauce. Don't let it sit for too long after ordering because these are best hot & fresh.
The super carne asada burrito was very good. I think it was better than the same one that I get at the other location in RWC. I like the green salsa here but I wish it was a tad bit spicier.
CASH only so make sure you bring the green.

South Peninsula Veterinary Emergency Clinic
Category: Veterinarians
Bonus points to the emergency vet who called me to follow up about my dog several days after bring him in with grand mal seizures. I, of course, had already followed up with my normal vet, but the follow up from the emergency vet was special. It really shows that they care about the pets they treat.

I brought my 15 year old Golden Spruce here last night after he had grand mal seizures. It was the middle of the night and it was an emergency.
I was scared, traumatized and worried about my dog, but the vets on staff were comforting, informed and concerned. The visit was not cheap, but it was not astronomical. The vet discussed options and even recommended against some of the more expensive ones that she deemed not necessary.
All in all, for a horrible experience it was as good of an experience as it could have been.

So many people I know LOVE LOVE LOVE this place.....I find it overrated. I have been coming here since I was a kid and although I find it to always be a good meal, it never wows me.

I am a big fan of the "Chow" restaurants. Casual, good food with something for everyone....The food is mainly comfort food, but it spans many cuisines without seeming all over the place. It can get busy and service can be inconsistent.
I love the Thai Style noodles, the Thai salad and the basic comfort foods available here.
It is nice to eat on the roof deck on a nice day.
I worked close to here during the Dot Com days and we spent many an afternoon here drinking champagne and eating good food.

I have been eating at Karlitas since I was a teenager and introduced to it by my guy friends. I think they liked eating here for the pure size of the burrito.
It has been consistently good over the years, but the menu/taste has changed due to the numerous owner changes. This used to be my favorite place for a burrito, but it is no longer as good as it once was. However, I keep hoping......

We had a few dishes. The standout was the Chicken Salad which was excellent. I also liked the green beans we had. The rest of the dishes (Tangerine Beef and some shrimp dish) were overly sweet for my taste.
