    The folks at Rendezvous are super kind and thoughtful. And they have the BEST brownies.
    Amy G.

    I'm at Rendezvous quite regularly, and they are the nicest folks around. Marcella mans the front of the house and is always welcoming folks with a smile. Jenny makes amazing porridge and is always working hard. I've had most things on the menu but the following are my favorites: *Best value: crispy and potatoe-y steak fries for a buck fifty *Best sandwich: chicken curry *Best combo (if your office is freezing): grilled cheese and basil soup *Best dessert (when available): brownies *Best special: toss-up between Jenny's porridge and the shrimp tacos

    To-go tomato soup.

    Though the concept is great, and the customer service has improved over the past few months, there are a lot of improvements to be made. First, the food is overpriced for the portion sizes. $6 for a tiny cup of soup is a bit absurd (it only fills up half the to-go cup they put it in). The salads are also lacking in terms of portions and options, but cost quite a bit. I don't mind spending the money if the portion size meets the cost. Second, they are consistently out of stock of items (i.e. water bottles, creamer). Third, the breakfast baked good options are minimal, and I have come across too many bagels that don't seem very fresh. The only positive about the bagels is that you get to apply the cream cheese yourself because they only offer small packets, so at least you won't be skimped on the cream cheese. I appreciate that they ask for feedback and ideas for menu options, but this is not my first choice for food in the area.

    The most amazing quinoa bowl, daily specials (coconut curry, jambalaya), BURGERS (high quality meat!), avocado toast, and just regular lunch Cobb salads and things like chicken BLTs. Fresh ingredients, adorable cafe, delivery via Doordash, & GrubHub, all while fulfilling an empowering social mission. The draw here is organic, locally sourced, and a mix of "clean" nutritious meals and indulgences (burgers, fries, taco specials). The cafe is a wonderful bright airy space with lots of tables for groups and stool perches by the large windows. It's in the heart of many major businesses including near Oracle, Entertainment Arts, major law firms, lots of startups in Redwood Shores. You will probably have to drive here because of the way the industrial office parks are set up, but if you work at EA, one of the law firms or in the Sobrato Center (where the cafe is located), you're lucky enough to take a stroll to enjoy your lunch. I love it amongst the dearth of delicious healthy options in Redwood Shores. (Although I also recommend the "Falafel Tazah" spot next to Knob Hill grocers for healthy, hot and fresh although they are a one or two trick pony). Rendezvous does it all but in the forms of rotating specials (they're all sooo good you won't have a bad day when you're like "meh, the special was so-so"- they're all tasty. I look forward to the specials. So with that, Go get your non-boring delicious healthy lunch!! P.S. for everyone wondering: Campbell is the friendly Scottish guy behind the counter that manages & trains.

    These guys are great! Food excellent, service with a smile and the main area is well lit, quite and great vibe for conversation over a meal.

    Great new place to eat in redwood shores. Really loved their veggie options. Had a really good veggie gyro and a fruit salad. Great friendly staff and a good place to have a coffee in the patio and work.

    THE MARKET at Edgewood Catering

    THE MARKET at Edgewood Catering

    (28 reviews)

    We had a mediocre experience with The Market catering…read more We struggled to get in touch with them to place our initial order for a small event. We sent multiple messages and voicemails that went unreturned for several days. Just as we were getting ready to change plans and look for a different vendor, we heard back (they had been out on vacation). We decided to still give them a try. (Note: the owner response below suggests that they responded within 24 hours, but that doesn't match our experience - I think this misunderstanding is due to the fact that two of us coordinating the event had reached out to the Market . My initial inquiry submitted on their website went unanswered, and so a couple days later my colleague tried to call and left a voicemail. Eventually my colleague was able to connect with them to place an order. I actually never received any response by phone or email.) The food arrived on time, but the delivery team forgot part of our order. We tried calling both of numbers on the invoice associated with the Market, but they both went right to voicemail. We eventually got a hold of the delivery team and received our missing item halfway through our event. The portions we received were very small compared to the description. For example, "32 tea sandwiches" seems like 4-5 normal sandwiches sliced into 6ths - wild to pay $2.25 for each tiny sandwich slice. The quality of the ingredients seemed mediocre for the price (e.g. the bread seemed like basic bagged sandwich bread, sliced into uneven rectangles). The chicken skewers - the most expensive item we got - were surprisingly small. "Watermelon feta skewers bites" were about a third green olives (not listed in the description) which our guests found unappetizing - we would not have ordered this item if that ingredient had been disclosed. Salad was 99% plain mixed greens (the amount we received runs about $6.99 retail for organic mix at a specialty store). On the whole, most things seemed like we could have gotten similar-or-better quality items for a quarter of the price through Whole Foods. The plating for items was nothing special - again, supermarket take-away platters look about the same. It's really hard to justify the price we paid for the items we received. All in all, we found the service, food quality, and presentation to be unimpressive and overpriced, and the communication/delivery snafus made our event prep more stressful. Perhaps we caught them on an off day, but we were expecting more given the glowing Yelp reviews. Based on the experience we had, we'd recommend working with a different caterer.

    I have nothing but great things to say about THE MARKET at Edgewood Catering. GREAT FOOD ALL AROUND…read more(HIGH QUALITY)! FANTASTIC CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM BEGINNING TO THE END. Paola has been FANTASTIC to work with. She accommodated all my request and she UNDERSTANDS EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE. She's thorough and captured all the details.

The party was at Elizabeth Gamble Gardens in Palo Alto (beautiful place!). Lauren met me there a few weeks before the party and did a walk through. She covered all the details we had outstanding but still remained in constant contact up to the day of the party and during it. This was a great assurance to me! The food was amazing! We loved it all and so did our guests. It was served beautifully, right on time and their servers are tops! The also did passed appetizers and staffed our wine/beer bar. Again, all perfect! When I have another party, I am never going to have to look for another caterer again. I know exactly who I will use and who I will work with. Thank you Lauren and Weir for making our celebration a huge success!!!
