Reviews for The Refuge (Menlo Park) in Menlo Park, CA
Delicious pastrami. Attentive and friendly staff. Great appetizers and glorious drink selection. Bring your fav person - it?s a... good time Read more
Very friendly and efficient staff. We were a group of 5 and they pushed 2 tables together and seated us immediately. They were... over half full at the end of the lunch rush (2pm). 3 of the 5 of us got Rubin Sandwiches as the Rubin reputation demanded we tryit out. It did not disappoint. The texture and flavor of this Rubin were the best I have ever experienced. Notably, the food wasprepared and brought to us very quickly. This may just have been because of our after rush timing but I was very impressed withthe speed. It felt like the first person who ordered was getting their food before the last person was done ordering. There wasplenty of free public parking. We left feeling stuffed and Happy. We will certainly be back! Read more
The nachos were huge and delicious. The (half of a) pastrami sandwich was also great! The only downside was that they were out... of the IPA I wanted, but they had plenty more options on tap. Read more
Decided to stop by here on a recommendation from a friend. Place has a very warm atmosphere, the staff have a friendly vibe.... Came in during noon lunch rush, but still seated fast, drinks on the table before the menu even opened. The food came out veryfast, but was hot and fresh. Decided on the western cheese steak with wacky fries. It tasted amazing. Had a great smell andtaste. Fries did not taste cheap. The selection of beer wine and spirits takes up 3 pages of the 4 page menu. There's a drinkhere for everyone. Highly suggest everyone try it at least once Read more
I?ve eaten in as well as ordered on delivery from The Refuge. Strangely, it was better on delivery. But it was pretty good both... ways. I?ve tried the wiz cheesesteak and the provolone one and would definitely recommend the provolone instead. Read more
Love their pastromi (especially the chunk sized in salad), tasty, flavorful and not dry. Service was great and outdoor seating... available! Read more
Amazing food!! The pastrami is perfectly made. The bread pudding was moist and just delicious. The service was great and the... food was ready quickly. You must have the Ohio burger!! Oh! Dont forget the goofy fries. Read more
First time here, I think they can do better, half the food was cold, which is a little disappointing when it's a burger, and... even more disappointing when it's cold fries.The garlic fried had waaaay too much garlic mush which kinda made them bitter. Withthat being said, the sandwich was really good, and the soups were delicious. Maybe 5 starts next time. Read more
