"I always liked to go here, always loved the food. I recently came to the phone with an rude young man because I tried to cancel my order and get a refund and he wouldn't allow it. It's 8:26p now if the food should be? was here at 7:45. But still I called at 7:45 to cancel the order and the young lady said The food was already on the way and asked what was my reason for the cancellation. I told her I don't need the food she answers to a young man. As if I was a child and repeated the word? after every word, as if I could not understand. He then explained the same thing the young lady did and said they already made the food and it on the way. I explained that since I did not receive it, I should receive a refund because I did not have the product, but he repeated himself in a humiliating way to mock me and say? Why would you order the food if you didn't want it or knew you couldn't accept it? That's not nice? How Bro are we kids? Who has the courage to say that? I explained that I cannot control whether something appears in my life, as things happen outside the peoples control. He says he's gonna spend a loan and leave him in a credit book? next time I come in?.as if I were back. If he is responsible, he has an immature, terrible, unnecessary attitude that I have never experienced in my life by someone working with customers. Customers also get under my skin and it can cause me to lose my temperament, but it is common to get a refund for a product that you do not receive. Now I'm at home at 8:30 and nothing yet. When I got the loan, it also meant that the food no longer comes, they didn't explain it and made it seem as it was already on the way that I would still get it or had to take it. And yes, I was hanging on the young man because how incredibly rude he was"

"We had requested the rounded corner booth in the main dining room and arrived 20 minutes early, planning to enjoy a cocktail at the bar. But instead, we were seated at a booth right next to our preferred one. A couple finished their meal shortly after we sat down, well before our 6:30 reservation. We ordered a Beefeater gin and tonic and a very dry Beefeater martini. Both drinks had an unusual, perfume-like scent that was quite off-putting. My wife sent her drink back, and I decided to switch to a Bombay martini, but the same strange floral fragrance persisted. I regularly enjoy Beefeater and Bombay dry martinis and have never experienced this odd aftertaste before. For my main course, the Duck and Porcini confit ragu had hardly any duck in it. There were only a few shreds of duck meat hidden in the tagliatelle, but no substantial pieces. My wife’s Pesto and Shrimp dish arrived swimming in a broth. While this might be a traditional way to serve it, there was no mention of broth on the menu. She had expected the pesto to be coated on the pasta and oily, rather than soupy. As much as we have loved Capriccio over the past three decades, this experience was disappointing. We didn't even stay for dessert. We'll certainly return, but I hope to avoid writing another negative review. I usually don’t share my thoughts unless absolutely necessary, but I felt compelled to do so this time."

"Date Night ASA Restaurant has two locations in the Bay Area and their Los Gatos location earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition This was my first dining experience at their more north location in downtown Los Altos With high ceilings and heart themed adorned menus, this was a perfect spot for a Valentine’s week dining experience The menu here is slightly different from the Los Gatos location and I’ve heard that the two locations may not be as closely affiliated when they first opened I loved the appetizers and particular loved the anchovy bread with two different anchovy types topped on crisp, warm bread. The Dungeness crab appetizer was also excellent For entrees, I opted for ASA’s signature exotic mushroom pasta that is on both the Los Gatos and Los Altos menu As a fungi fan, I absolutely love this dish and it’s one of the best pasta dishes in the South Bay and Peninsula The only miss was their special of the day of striped bass over risotto. The purple yam purée was sour and the risotto dry with zero moisture or liquid and more like a cooked rice dish than a risotto ASA is a fantastic destination for the Bay Area and while the prices are elevated, they reflect elevated cuisine (and high ceilings) Smoked and Stoned $16 Anchovy Bread $16 Dungeness Crab Toast $36 Special Striped Bass over Risotto ASA’s Exotic Mushroom Pasta $34 ASA Restaurant (Los Altos, CA) Reservations are recommended on Opentable and dining is indoor only.
