We have been going to Parkside Grill since Bill has been the owner, which has been several years. The food is always outstanding. Bill has an excellent chef (we love his specials) and a good wine list. The service and his employees or the best. The atmosphere is friendly and inviting. The location is quiet and relaxing. We eat there and take our friends there whenever possible. Elaine & Bill
PS: If you can get past all the other great items on the menu try the hamburger with onion rings.You will not be sorry.
Pros: Parking is good

The food ain't great, the attitude is all there, but it is amazing that in high tech Stanford, you can still find a place that hasn't changed in literally 20 years.
The burgers are greasy, but the beers is good. The main thing to do for those of us from winter climates is to go there in the winter and hang out in the sun for an hour. Great for the soul.
BTW, Chris, knows, but if you are really cool, call it the "Zotts" and then find out why they call it that :_0

I'm a big fan of Ladera Oaks Tennis. The club is very social, and the lighted courts allow you to play after work all winter.

Duh. I wrote my previous review of Dr. Flagg in 2004. I haven't been in the area myself for 5 years.
It would be nice if this site had a way of marking businesses as CLOSED.

Webb Ranch (http://www.webbranchfarm.com) has a produce stand open from April through the Fall each year, at the junction of Hwy 280 and Alpine Road in Portola Valley. You can't beat it for great quality fruits & vegetables, which are pesticide-free. The folks who work there are friendly and helpful, too. If you live in the Menlo Park / Stanford / Portola Valley / Woodside areas, there's almost no reason ot shop anywhere else for fruits or vegetables.

Bianchini's is everything a local grocery should be -- it supplies all the necessities, and fits the character of the area very well. The prices aren't bargains of course, but they definitely work hard to meet the needs of the community. We love being able to shop here.

More
This gas station in the Ladera Shopper is family owned & managed, and my interactions with the family has always been good. They keep a neat-and-tidy place, which means they fit well in Ladera (they even have flower boxes around all the gas pumps). Another key intangible -- a few years ago, they agreed to minimize their advertising signage along Alpine Road, to keep in the character of the area.
