Love the variety that Local Kitchen has to offer. All of our fave SF eats available in the South Bay. Always top-notch service when we go. Friendly and helpful staff.
Spicy local fries are bomb. Honey habanero aioli is so good.
Beautifully crafted food with exceptionally friendly service, well managed app with wait times make this place a must try ! Lots of parking on back, a rotating chef featured menu, nice ambience for kids and family. Five stars from me!! I could see repeat customers as I ordered and waited, would try in advance ordering if in rush.
My picture does not do it justice, all this food was incredible! The spicy chicken sandwich was divine and also really nicely spicy, and I inhaled that. Fries and cauliflower both perfectly cooked and tasty!
We visited local kitchens in Cupertino based on the invite the Yelp Elite event and we had a very pleasant experience! Let me start with the ordering on their website - multiple restaurants serving some of their favorite dishes ( not all, so some may find their preferred items of the original restaurant here) and you can order from any of their menus in a single order (or not as we chose). I placed an order on the Curry-up Now items while my better half chose items from the menu of the The Little Chihuahua. While I let my wife add her review separately, I will say this much - the food served was fresh and the taste and flavors ar exactly what get at the original restaurant. Ordering was quick, easy and efficient! Next about the drive for pickup - though the location of the Cupertino venue is a tad distance from my place, the drive down Steven's Creek Blvd was not too bad. The road at the point where you arrive at the location actually converts from 2 lanes to single lane and since there is HWY 85 exit/merge just close by, you can get easily distracted and pass the spot. No worries just take a u-turn and come back. It is just beside CityFish, a seafood joint we had visited a while a ago (great Fish 'n Chips here) and parking may be scarce but easily found around it. Next about the place itself - with no indoor dining option, the inside is huge and empty with plenty of place for social distancing. They have self-order iPad kiosks to one side as well to order while you are there as well. There was a gender neutral washroom at one end which was very distant ( good) from the place of pickup. And yes, there was "now-being-served" screen to the right of the entry which you can look at and go to the pick up counter when you read your name. Pretty slick, I should say. Finally about the order - spot on time, ready for pick up, stored in warming area until you do and very cleanly packed and sealed for no tampering post packing. I was quickly handed my order and we were off
So many different great choices here. My go-to is the tosilog burrito with added cilantro cream sauce from the Senior Sisig menu. The fried egg inside just adds so much, and the rice + pork is so flavorful unlike a lot of other burritos. Usually I have to add guacamole to make it less bland and dry, but I actually prefer this burrito without guacamole.
I come here at least 4times a week since my job is 3 min away. If I crave something different they usually have it. The staff and food have never been disappointed me.
It was very interesting place. They serve food from multi brands. ( i found out after i got there after 20mi driving ) In general, the food was ok ( decent). I loved the fries the most. It was so fresh and crunchy. ( i love good fries ) I also ordered the chicken salad bowl. I expected worm chicken, but it was cold. Maybe it is how it is served. Ah. I liked the sauce having little texture. ( i will order the chicken burger if i visit there again ) And I ordered the cauliflower fries. I liked them too. Little interesting, but overall it was ok with the given sauce. And, i ordered the boba tee as well. I understand the business idea. And, the overall food quality was ok as well although they handled the several brands. I might not go there again.
Will and the rest of the team are crushing it. We came here after a long hike in the state park. The Burrito was great the chips and guac are an excellent portion and I feel like everything was a solid deal thank you!
This was the perfect lunch stop on our way back from a hike. Multiple options, so everyone can enjoy something. While you can eat inside and two outside tables, this isn’t a restaurant for ambience; more grab and go. Food was great and sizable portions. The staff was super sweet and brought us our tray of food. We got the Vietnamese egg rolls and the chicken adobada rice plate which were both fantastic. Will definitely be back to try something new!
