Places to eat near the shop

After a good hard day of work at the shop, we often opt for dining out instead of heading straight home to a dirty kitchen and empty cupboards. Where do we go to eat?

Here’s a list of places we like with links to the yelp page for each:

• Bar Food
  • $ Aussiello’s Tavern, Belmont – your basic hangout bar; shuffle board, pool, and a grill
  • $$ City Pub, Redwood City – a bit more upclass, with outside dining, fireplace inside
  • $$ Devil’s Canyon map of tap locations – If you must have a Full Boar Scotch Ale with your meal (and who wouldn’t?), search here

• Burgers
  • $$ Jack’s Prime, San Mateo – High quality, fresh meat. Excellent. Trumer Pils on tap.
  • $$ Godfathers’ Burger Lounge, Belmont – Bustling burger restaurant
  • $ Classic 101 , Belmont – Not quite a drive through. Sterling and Pancho like it.

• Mexican
  • $$ Hola, Belmont - a staple in the C&P dinner out rotation. Good margaritas
  • $ El Metate, Belmont – fast, cheap, yummy, and across from Devils’ Canyon

• Italian
  • $$$ Caprino’s, Belmont – Excellent food, nice wine list, full bar. White table cloths fancy.
  • $$ Toto’s Pizza, Belmont – CJ’s Dad’s favorite pizza. Watch the dough discs fly.

• Chinese
  • $$ Gin Mon, Belmont – small, fast, family run. We like the reasonably priced food too.
  • $$ China Village, Belmont - Large rooms for big parties. Jay likes the Dim Sum.

• Sushi
  • $$$ Sushi Sam’s Edomata, San Mateo – high quality artistic sushi. The real deal.

• Indian
  • $$ Koriander, Bemont – brand new. Good food, next to an Indian Food Market

• Thai
  • $$ Thai Time, San Carlos – Excellent food, with a full bar.

• Afghan
  • $$ Kabul, San Carlos – YUM. Charles gets the lamb kabob, Patty gets pumpkin in yogurt

• Scottish
  • $$$ Martin’s West Gastropub, RWC - Full bar, many Scotches, kitchen open late. Quality food.
