Alice's Restaurant Portola Valley Reviews from The Last Year
My friend brought me here for lunch and it did NOT
My friend brought me here for lunch and it did NOT disappoint! It definitely gives "cabin diner in the woods" vibes and I was here for it!! He recommended the Crunchy Tacos, which we ended up both ordering. When I say this is one of the best tacos I've ever had... this is one of the BEST tacos I've EVER had. The shell was baked to crunchy perfection, but was flaky and crisp. The rice and cheese was such a good pairing and everything tasted fresh and delicious after a long day. We added in a side of garlic knots and those were great as well! The garlic knots come with marinara sauce to dip it in, but honestly they were good by themselves as well. The service was really good and they were extremely helpful in checking in on us. If you want extra plates or utensils or napkins, you just have to ask. Overall it was a very chill time! The cell phone service is a little spotty in this area (it's up in the mountains) so just be careful if you're using your phone to navigate here. Would definitely come back again!
Nice location, decent food.
.. simple and to the point, also the staff are very efficient.
Food was very tasty, and served promptly.
Menu has a lot of variety. Salad dressing was above average, and is made by them. Outdoor seating was plentiful, and added a welcome "woodsy" vibe. I arrived around noon for lunch during the week; it wasn't busy when I ordered, but got very busy over the next hour.
Weathered the Pineapple Express to try out my namesake
Weathered the Pineapple Express to try out my namesake restaurant & apparently others had the same idea, since it was crowded. But there was plenty of seating with patio heaters & we were able to stay dry. My steak sandwich came with chips but also ordered sweet potato fries & onion rings to share with others in my party. The steak was medium rare, just the way I ordered it & was quite hefty; more of a steak plate vs a steak sandwich. A very filling lunch & it was nice to get away from the city & be in the redwoods.
What's with adding a 5% restaurant surcharge.
Deceptive prices since it's not shown on many menu displays. This is probably illegal and at a minimum is deceptive to the customer. If prices need to be raised, do so and print new menus. Don't cheat the customer.

We arrived Wednesday 03/20 around 11am but the lady who took our order outside was rude and condescending. After taking our order, my friend was paying on the ipad but when it was turned for us to select tip, the option was already on 20%. Tipping is meant to reflect the quality of service received, yet in this case, it felt like an obligatory fee rather than a gesture of appreciation for exceptional service. The anticipation that was built from our 1 hour drive was a huge let down from encountering the experience with that specific staff member. If you cannot be kind from just taking our order, maybe this industry is not for you. The gentlemen who brought out our food was kind, and the ambiance of the outdoor space was so beautiful! We hope to be back but not to encounter with that type of attitude again

I really enjoy grabbing some food here, especially after a serious hiking in the woods. This seems to be a very popular and casual spot to get breakfast, brunch, lunch, or even dinner! The service is spectacular and everyone who works here seems to be happy and friendly. My chicken sandwich was delicious and fresh. Highly recommend it to everyone who is nearby.
The atmosphere of Alice's Restaurant is phenomenal! Built
The atmosphere of Alice's Restaurant is phenomenal! Built among the redwoods, the restaurant offers a place to relax, have a drink, and eat comfort food. Everyone here is also extremely friendly making you feel welcome right away. You have the option to order at the front and find your own seat or walk to the back and order at the bar. We decided to order and eat at the bar. Out of all the food, the garlic knots were the best. The jalopy burger was pretty good, a little messy, but not spicy. My boyfriend had a chicken avocado panini and said the chicken was a little dry. Sitting at the bar, we got to chit chat with the bartender and had an amazing time! I ordered a mojito and she went out in the rain to pick the mint straight from outside (this made her mojito taste even better). Alice's Restaurant is definitely a place we'll come back to! Although the food was not the best, it may have just been what we ordered. We look forward to trying other things on the menu!
We ate at Alice's twice during our wedding weekend.
Both times we had larger parties and both times we had excellent service, food and atmosphere. There's really no bad seat in the house, and no bad option on the menu. The manager Dustin is incredible, accommodating and efficient. Thanks for creating such a great experience for our guests! No wonder there's always such a long wait on the weekends!
The restaurant is nice and a bit old,but the food is
The restaurant is nice and a bit old,but the food is superb!! Especially the breakfast burrito!!!!!! The waiters are nice also!
We come here a couple times a year.
It's a rainy day and less crowded. Service was good, we don't have to get up to get our coffee or our meal. We ordered the corned beef hash and biscuits and gravy . Biscuits and gravy were a 2. I liked the corned beef but she didn't.
We love Alice's! The only thing better than their delicious
We love Alice's! The only thing better than their delicious food is their awesome staff. They take care of their customers in a next-level kind of way. The beautiful location and chill vibe makes us feel like we're on vacation in some far away mountain town. Excellent live music, great bar, the best bartenders ever (Cadillac Margarita, yes please) bomb heat lamps for outside seating and great swag in their gift shop. Did I mention that I love this place?
Ate on the heated patio.
Great ambiance. Fast, accurate of meal. Courteous staff. Will definiely be returning!
I love the location of this place and the family farm vibe
I love the location of this place and the family farm vibe it has. It is always a treat to go here. It is homey, friendly and yummy. I generally choose the breakfast items and never regret it. I need to try their more lunch/dinner meals. The coffee is fantastic & I appreciate that my mug is frequently refilled. It can be tricky to walk btwn the front and back with the meals and cocktails. I have definitely toppled over a Bloody Mary which was witnessed & kindly replaced. I hope to frequent more often & discover the local hills for walks/hikes!
Charming place, great vibe, excellent food
I love this place nestle in the hills above the Bay Area, including the 35 minute drive from the SFO airport hotels. It's popular. Even on a Friday lunch hour, parking spots were at a premium. It's charming, the food is great, service was spot on. There is outdoor seating as well. A burger with chips and a soft drink and tip was about $24. The burger was huge and perfectly done. If I lived in the area, I would love to come back with my motorcycle. It's a popular place for riders, mostly European and Japanese bikes.
Cool Mountain Cafe!
While in San Jose for a few days we drove up here for an escape to nature and this place was recommended by family. What a cute little restaurant up in the mountains! In addition to the indoor restaurant they also had a big outdoor area in back with grassy picnic area and tables and umbrellas. It was very idyllic. We had a snack and two beers and sat in two adirondack chairs enjoying the ambiance surrounded by forest thinking about the song from the ‘60s of the same name by Arlo Guthrie! I’d definitely come back here for breakfast or lunch! They also have concerts on Thursday and Friday nights (check the current schedule).
Charging you back and forth. Watch your bill before you leave the restaurant.
Charging us 20% tip for the food we picked it up and 5% surcharge and tax over these charges. Awful.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
