What User doesn't like about Menlo Tavern:

an intimate, warm restaurant. the interieur is very clubby, but cozy with its green blue leather couches. there's a fireplace in the bar area. a lot of parking outside. the dinner was the best we ever had in the opposite. it was a special dinner. the gorgonzola gnocchi with walnuts and Brussels sprouts, interesting salads, generous portions suppen (buttersock with pepitas, etc.) and generous cocktails. great service...

Mixed reviews were given for the restaurant, with some diners expressing disappointment in the quality and execution of the food, while others praised the atmosphere and service. The menu was described as limited, but seasonal, with craft cocktails being a highlight. Some dishes, like the scallops and beet salad, were well received, while others, such as the rib-eye steak and pasta with clam sauce, fell short. Despite some negative feedback, Menlo Tavern was commended for its ambiance, service, and overall dining experience. Prices ranged from $30–$100 per person, with popular dishes including the Roasted Chicken and Brownie Sundae.
