    Poke bowl

    Our server Trixie was very nice. The food came out quickly, and the buffalo cauliflower was hot and crispy and perfectly cooked. My only complaint was that It took an incredibly long time to get the final bill.

    Nestled right in the heart of of the village area of downtown Los Altos on Main Street is "The Post"..drum roll please! This was my second visit, met a friend and we had lunch and it was super fantastic. Great array of food and drinks. I opted for the Mac & Cheese Burger which features...beef patty, mayo, tomato, grilled onion, arugula, bacon, fried mac & cheese ball, cheese sauce, brioche. At first when I heard the mac and cheese with the Burger, I was like.ah no", but guess what? I decided to go out on a whim, did it the rest is history...it was that good, no it was that great!! The service and staff and owners were great. Will I be back, you bet!! With comfort food like this..what are you waiting for!! The following are their hours.

    Fettuccine Bolognese and spicy mango margarita
    Ryan R.

    I really like this place! It's right across the street from my taiko lesson spot. They had plenty of seating and were able to accommodate our group of ten easily. The server was super nice and attentive. I love bolognese, so of course I had to get it -- it was delicious! I just wish they had offered to add some fresh cheese on top like other places do. I also got a spicy mango margarita, which was perfect -- not too sweet and not too strong. Hehe.

    Mac & Cheese Balls
    Nikita K.

    I tried The Post and it was pretty good. We got brussel sprouts and Mac and cheese balls for appetizers and both were good and the mac and cheese balls were plated very pretty. I would definitely re order the brussel sprouts. The spicy margarita was really good too. I got the pesto pasta for the main course but I didn't really like it and couldn't taste the pesto either. I like the ambiance inside the restaurant. The service was okay but could've been better. I came here on a Friday night and it says it's open late but the kitchen closes super early so we were very rushed both to order and finish our food and drinks.

    Cobb Salad

    Sitting around trying to decide on dinner, knowing I'm heading downtown, I thought I would order a salad on the way. I realize it's been years since I've been to the Post. So I called in a simple Cobb salad--nothing fancy. I show up, the guy hands me the card reader, charges my card, then immediately shoves the tip screen in my face as he grades my generosity real time. (FYI, I'm an over tipper) I asked him, hold on, this salad was $32? He says, "Well, not exactly... there's tax." Wow. Thank you, Einstein. Truly groundbreaking. Now because he's standing there holding the device like a hostage negotiator, I feel obligated to hit the highest tip option. Fine. Whatever. Just give me my overpriced lettuce. I walk out, check the actual menu, and see the Cobb salad is $26.50. So not only do they mark it up for call-in orders (+$3 US DOLLARS), but they basically trap you into a 20% guilt tip on top. And the salad? Mid. Extremely mid. (See picture.) So yes, I just paid $38 for a Cobb salad that tasted like it was assembled by someone who hates both salads and humanity. Meanwhile, literally down the street, every salad is under ten bucks and actually good. This is my first time ever posting something like this, but honestly... this level of robbery deserves a write-up. Not sorry for the rant.

    Came here on Valentine's Day for sort of a last minute dinner after we decided to go out to eat. We were able to get a reservation pretty last minute so that was appreciated. The restaurant itself was nice, though it was really drafty so we were both pretty cold. Our food was really good, we shared Brussels sprouts and I had one of the February specials - a chicken pesto panini - and my boyfriend has the crispy chicken sandwich. Both were cooked really well and had a nice mix of flavors. Our service was just okay, and I know it was Valentine's Day, but it took awhile for our server to come over when the section that we were seated in was fairly empty. I'd eat here again though, the food was good and not too expensive.

    Best place for our team dinner with players and parents!

    What a neighborhood gem. The outside seating is great but if you want to watch the big game there are no shortage of tvs. Nice long bar and bottomless mimosa brunch. We made reservations for our sports team and parents and rolled in with 28 people between games. We called ahead and spoke to the owner Vickie, who was so generous and helpful in accommodating our team. She had some appetizers platters ready for us upon arrival and the staff was really helpful. The menu had everything from avocado toast and salads to pasta and burgers. We had the pulled pork sandwich, pasta and ahi tuna stack. All the plates went back clean! Really fresh and healthy choices but also lots of comfort food like Mac and cheese and wings. There is literally something for everyone. They have plenty of dining space and we had our own room in the back for all our tables so it would be a great venue to host a shower or special occasion birthday party. Whenever we are in the area we will for sure be headed back to The Post. Thank you Vickie!

    I was here for a company holiday lunch! My second year of enjoying eating out with the whole office staff. It was all of our first time eating here. I will say I wish I took better pictures of the food and the restaurant. I didn't have good lighting and rushed to take pics before we demolished the food LOL. So I only have pictures of the menu. Location is convenient because it was only a few minutes away from the workplace and at the start of Main Street. Parking can be a hit or miss, the parking lots and street parking can get filled pretty quickly. The restaurant alone is beautiful, and you can tell they put in a lot of work to decorate for Christmas and the month of December. There is a centered bar top and flat screen tvs throughout, so I can imagine it gets lively here for sports game days. Our group was seated towards the back, looked like a community table which worked out fine. They offer a seasonal lunch menu, drinks/cocktails menu, and a happy hour menu. Note: The (v) on the menu is for vegetarian not vegan. I wish I knew beforehand, because the appetizers made my stomach bubbly later on due to my lactose intolerance. If we didn't have work right after, I would definitely have tried a cocktail or a nice wine. I enjoyed the appetizers the most! **Appetizers** - Black Bean Empanadas (vegetarian) 5/5 - Buffalo Cauliflower (vegetarian) 5/5 - Crispy Brussel Sprouts 5/5 **Main** - Salmon BLT w/out Bacon (I don't eat red meat or pork) 4/5 -- the sweet potato fries could've been a little more crispy. Also, there was one bad fry in the batch, it had an unpleasant taste. The salmon could've had a bit more seasoning. **Dessert/Drink** - Mexican Chocolate Coconut Cream Gelato 4/5 --it was partially melted and partially icy. The taste was good though! - BlackBerry Lemonade 5/5 I would like to come back for brunch and dine-in on my own. I'd love to try their Creme brûlée French toast or waffles.

I always said LA needed a speakeasy and I am so glad one opened up! The kicker? You need a reso so make sure you have one! We just happened to get lucky Check in at Cetrella and they will walk you back outside to an elevator where you need a code to access the elevator to the basement. Once the elevator doors open you walk down a long dark smoke filled corridor to the bar that awaits. Cool music playing BTW. Sat at the end of the bar instead of one of the many tables and was immediately handed a cocktail menu. Simple menu with carefully crafted cocktails that they do exceptionally well. - The Wolf noted as "milk punch" on the menu. The clarified refined version I am sure because the drink came with a light purplish hue instead of the milky concoction. Very well balanced and I can easily say one of the best milk punch cocktails I've ever had. - Smoked Old Fashioned. Again a very different technique than I am used to seeing. Instead of the entire cocktail being smoked, the glass was smoked before the spirits ever hit the glass. Again we'll balanced with a hint of orange essence. Bar food served if the kitchen is still open. And the service was good super attentative bar staff who carried a conversation with those close by. What a great addition to Los Altos and one I may bring my team back to after we dine at their restaurant Cetrella! So glad it popped up on my Yelp search because this place is definitely a hidden gem!!

There's a bar bites menu, and highly recommend the duck fat fries and the fritto misto. Love the dark ambiance and the great vintage lounge music played. Imagine all the popular old hits and recent pop, r&b, Motown, rock, etc., in chill bossa nova style vibes-- my Pops favorite, so of course, I could sit and listen for hours. This is a great addition to downtown Los Altos! Stop in for a pre or post dinner cocktail or two. You won't regret it! Cheers dears!

After sitting down, we realized the lively music was a little too loud for us, so we opted to move outside to their "patio". We were still able to enjoy the music, but it was also important that we could hear each other talk. Thankfully the weather was perfect. Two of my friends ordered the Chicha Morada, $8, a refreshing mocktail. After I took a sip, I ordered one for myself! Our lunch entrees were the Mixto Clasico, $26, Pacific red snapper, calamari, shrimp, leche de tigre, Anticuchos de Pollo, $22, Two marinated grilled chicken skewers, roasted chimichurri potatoes, Peruvian corn, served with Limon hot sauce, and two orders of the Crispy Pork Belly Chaufa, $28, Peruvian fried rice, bacon, mixed vegetables, green onions, ginger-infused oyster sauce, topped with crispy pork belly & sesame seeds. Each dish was beautifully plated and appetizing to look at and eat! Most of us were happy with our food choices. The only issue my friend and I had with our crispy pork belly chaufa, was the dryness of the pork belly. It is also advertised as crispy, and it was definitely not crispy. However, they were generous with 5 slices of the pork belly. The rice was super yummy. Would I order it again? Probably not. I so wanted the pork belly to be moist inside and crispy on the outside, but it didn't happen. My leftovers made for a great dinner for my hubby though. Service was friendly but since we were seated outside, and it was busy inside, it took a while for our server to check up on us. Their menu is extensive, but a little pricey. Believe it or not, they also have a menu of Nikkei sushi rolls. Their dining area and bar are simply stunning, and their ladies' room is one of the prettiest I've ever seen! There is a parking garage in the same building as the restaurant, so very convenient. Would we dine here again? Absolutely!

Unfortunately, we left regretting that decision. From the start, the experience felt unwelcoming when we were seated with our 3-year-old daughter. There was no single overtly disrespectful moment, but the overall tone and repeated small interactions made us feel like we were being judged for having a child with us. At one point, when our daughter accidentally dropped her fork while playing, the reaction we received came across as frustration, which added to that feeling. We understand not every restaurant is designed for young children, but Broma presents itself as a place for friends and family. Instead, we felt like we had to constantly manage and overcorrect normal toddler behavior, which created stress and took away from what should have been a special occasion. Because of that, we didn't feel comfortable raising concerns during the meal when the server checked in--we were more focused on getting through the experience without drawing additional attention. We were also offered an off-menu item without any mention of price. The menu we were given did not list the smash burger, so when I ordered a double, I had no context for the cost. The final price was a surprise, and we would have made a different decision with that information upfront. The food itself did not match the price point. The "smash burger" was not prepared in the style typically expected, and overall the meal felt underwhelming for the cost. Lastly, the billing was confusing. The paper receipt listed "gratuity," while the digital receipt labeled the same charge as a "service charge," making it unclear whether an additional tip was expected. That lack of clarity does not align with the level of transparency expected at this price point. We don't mind paying for a great experience, especially for meaningful occasions, but this visit did not meet that standard and ultimately left us regretting our choice to celebrate here.
