The Best Restaurants In Palo Alto

At Taverna in Palo Alto you will overhear IPO jargon as you sip on Greek wine poured by waiters in suits. The all-day Greek restaurant, which looks like a Palo Alto-ified restaurant straight out of Mamma Mia (rickety blue chairs and all), is a hot spot for business lunches and team bonding for folks in embroidered puffers. Start things off with the fried zucchini cakes that are crunchy around the edges, and follow with the pork gyro stuffed with french fries. It’s filling, but won’t leave you in need of a nap on the office couch later.
