Caffe Riace - Palo Alto (CA)

5 /5 Eddy Wang: We passed through this restaurant a few times, and always were attracted by its outdoor setting. We finally had a chance to go there for lunch today, and it was really a pleasantly surprise that the genuine Italian dishes were so delicious, and the price was very reasonable. The restaurant has many beautiful paintings and the settings were clean and comfortable. The outdoor area has many beautiful sculptures, make me feel like dining in Europe. The waitress was friendly and polite. We will dine there more often. I would highly recommend this restaurant to you.

5 /5 Cameron Flores: Our lunch at Cafe Riace turned out to be a wonderful experience. The atmosphere felt warm and inviting and every dish we tried was full of flavor. Visiting on a Friday afternoon meant a calm setting, which allowed the staff to give us their full attention. From the service to the food, everything exceeded expectations. I would happily recommend this spot to friends and look forward to coming back again.

5 /5 Michelle Barnes: Great outdoor patio with fountain plus delicious pastas! My friend and I visited on a Saturday just after their 11:30am opening and were seated right by the fountain. I ordered the ceppo riace and my friend ordered the gnocchi al pesto. The wait staff also gave a fantastic recommendation on the Cultusboni Chianti, even allowing me to try a taste before pouring me a glass. We were also served delicious fresh bread while waiting for our food. The pastas were both amazing and served in such large portions that we had enough leftovers to take home for a second meal. Highly recommend!

5 /5 Lisa HD: Had a lovely dinner at this beautiful Italian restaurant. We went on a rainy evening and were seated inside. We had the tomato mozzarella, which wasnt very fresh for me. The eggplant appetizer was yum with ricotta cheese slices. I had the shrimp scampi special which was a bit lemony. Husband has the chicken marsala which was delicious with a glass of red. It was a nice place, good service and next time I would probably do an afternoon visit as I would love to set in their beautiful patio area.

5 /5 Nilesh Junnarkar: We had great lunch experience at Cafe Riace. It’s a charming place with great food. We went on a Friday afternoon and the place was empty so we got very attentive service. Food was all round great. I will be recommending this place to my friends and will be visiting again. Maybe trying in the evening. They have some interesting sculptures in the beautiful garden. Overall enjoyed the experience.
