I went to Ken to kick a 40-year nail biting habit. I knew I needed a new method, and all I can say is: it worked. Two sessions, a few subsequent uses of his mental reminders and months later I am completely done and no compulsion whatsoever. I wish I had addressed the problem with hypnosis years ago. Thanks Ken.

Awesome addition to the Hill. While not exactly inspired, they do add a little twist that makes this more than your standard taqueria fare, and in some cases the results are outstanding. The tortilla soup, for example, is *great*. Tacos are good. Burritos, well, I'm still trying them. Dinner specials also very good. Great to have you on the hill.

Today I had the worst lunch here I've had all year. The place is perfectly nice and I wouldn't hesitate to come back for a sandwich if I'm in the area, but the seared tuna salad was so depressingly presented and bland I could hardly bear to eat it. So sad. I was trying to eat healthy, so much for that, at least here.

Sopa de tortilla (yeah, that's tortilla soup) is excellent here. Tacos are much more of a *** thing - I prefer El Tonayense - but the soup is *great*

I contacted Gladys by email. She replied right away and said "I can make anything!". I asked her to make a big green vegetable, and she made this giant broccoli piñata. My girlfriend loved it. So awesome!

Falafel are ubiquitous and often not that great, but I love a great falafel and this place has the falafel I've ever had. Beet salad was also very fresh and tasty. Great place in the quiet part of old Palo Alto.

I had the tasting menu with red abalone (wow) and lamb (also excellent). Cute waiting room in the back keeps the crowd to a minimum and out of the dining area. Calm atmosphere. Very very tasty and well worth a return visit.

Best Nicoise salad I've had in a long time. Good coffee. Free Wifi. A very welcome addition to upper Fillmore.

Asian Fusion? Hard to even remember what year this was last supposed to be a good idea - but it never was, and it still isn't. Predictably bad food and shamefully poor cocktails. I'm not sure why this corner draws low-qual trendoid restaurants (the place that was here before was in a similar vein, sort of dot-com fried chicken thing if I recall).

PASS. out.

I've heard the name of this place a few times recently. Ate there last night and it was SUPER TASTY. The staff were fun and friendly too. The bill was a little more than we expected, but the food was great and I'll be back for sure. The Masala Fish was the best thing on the table.
