There are two parts, the bar and the restaurant. The bar serves a small menu of bar food which is not bad. It is the cheapest place in Palo Alto to get drinks and a snack.

NOPE. Who the hell piles their dirty dishes on a back table, and serves an Anchor Steam in a Stella Artois chalice!?!? WHO?!? Never. Again.

Great mellow hangout on a Sunday afternoon. Beer 1/2 price, what more do you need?

Don't order a mixed drink. The bartenders measure every little drop. And, the bloody marys taste like watered down tomato juice.

The Vietnamese Iced Coffee and Thai Iced Tea are both great. Also, the Shaking Beef is the most tender I've eaten.
