Best Restaurants for Foodies in San Bruno

Excellent food. Manager checked in several times to see how things were going. During the holiday season parking is extremely difficult but normally not that bad. Also during the holidays it can be extremely loud but outside that time noise level is average for a busy restaurant. Would recommend for both lunch and dinner.

Excellent service! Leo and the rest of the staff were friendly and attentive. Food was great as usual. I have been going here for 20 years and ate at Boulevard and Waterbar this past week and Foreign Cinema was my favorite!

One of our go-to local restaurants. Consistently good.

I don't know if anyone would expect the Opera Cafe at Burlingame to be a fantastic place to eat, but we adore it. The staff is attentive, friendly, and accommodating, and the fare is just excellent. I really wanted some comfort food I can't get anywhere else, and my husband and I were with an elderly friend who eats like a bird, so we also needed a choice of small options. Max's covers all bases so well (we've been here many times before). I had the matzo ball soup and potato lakes, my husband was able to get his French onion soup and a humongous Chinese chicken salad, and our "mom" got the BBQ pork sliders with fries. We all had beautiful drinks and the famous Niagra Falls cake for dessert, while sitting under colorful Christmas lights, listening to the wonderful pianist play selections from Vince Guaraldi's "A Charlie Brown Christmas". What a great night with family at a superlative restaurant!

We had a wonderful birthday dinner at Farmer and Vine with our son, and everything exceeded our expectations! The food was absolutely excellent—every dish was flavorful and perfectly prepared. The service was impeccable; the staff was attentive and friendly and made us feel truly welcomed. The cocktails were not only delicious but also beautifully crafted. To top it all off, the ambiance was fun and cozy, creating the perfect setting for a special evening. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!
