"I was in the mood for good quality sushi and found Daigo on Yelp. I remember visiting the SF location and remembered it was delicious so I wanted to give this newer location a try. We both had the Omakase with a couple of a la carte items. The 6 fishes that were served to us in the beginning of the Omakase weren't the best. They were mostly bland colored fishes that all tasted the same-rubbery and tasteless. But then it got better. The other items were fresh, buttery and amazing. The Toro and Uni were my favorites of the night. We also had the crispy tempura mushroom with truffled salt, hamachi shooters and monk fish. All were delicious! We also shared a black sesame cheesecake which wasn't the best. It had a pretty dense filling and nonexistent crust. Overall, I'll be back, but I would skip the dessert."

"Most of our party ordered the filet, my medium came pretty medium-rare, another that ordered medium came medium-well, the other seemed to be as ordered. Found the filet nice and tender but not as tasty as I 've remembered it in the past, same w/the sauce--both just missing that wow factor. Consensus on the carrots and broccoli was that they were just plain boring (and tasteless). Bread was delicious, as was dessert (your complimentary birthday ice cream dessert, which was nice that it was large enough to be able to share with others in the party)."

"I love so much about Dinahs. It's a small boutique hotel with beautifully done landscaping. The garden areas are so pretty and my kids live feeding the coi fish. It's such a treat for my kids and I to come overnight and swim all day. My only complaint isthere is alot to be desired as far as the restaurant goes which is huge for us. We like to order food and drinks at the pool butthe last few stays there are issues every time. Mostly with bad attitudes and a no one seems to want to take your order. Iusually get this feeling like the left doesn't k ow what the right is doing. It would be perfect if the restaurant experienceimproved. There's lots of room for it!"

"I live in New York City and was here for work. Despite having access to amazing food in NYC, I am convinced that the chimichurri surf and turf sandwich at this restaurant may be the best sandwich I have ever tasted. Pair it with a side of jalapeno bomb ranch for a perfect lunch. The tri tip is tender, the shrimp has a great texture, and the flavors are perfectly balanced with richness and acidity. The freshly baked ciabatta bread is also exceptional."

"As Boston area transplants, my wife and I recognize authentic New England seafood when we see (and taste) it. In our opinion, the Old Port Lobster Shack delivers. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her fresh Maine lobster roll, prepared with real Hellman’s mayo just like they do back East. At first we thought it was a little pricey at $34, but a neighbor who just returned from Maine said that the going rate there is $30. Considering transportation costs for live lobster, this seems like a good deal. (FYI: The price fluctuates based on the market so you may pay more or less than we did Her mug of lobster bisque was flavorful but a bit too thick for her taste, although some people might prefer it that way. My fish and chips were terrific. There were three large pieces of perfectly cooked haddock, crunchy on the outside and moist and flaky inside, served with equally crispy and delicious fries. My meal was reasonably priced at $15.75. The Portola Valley location is small and very casual. Place your order at the counter, take your drink with you, and choose a table or picnic bench outside. There’s no indoor seating. They’ll deliver your food when it’s ready. The restaurant is conveniently located less than a mile from I-280 in the charming little Ladera shopping center. (Take the Alpine Road exit Westbound It’s hard to find a good casual fish restaurant on this side of the hill, especially one with a fresh authentic lobster roll, so we’ll definitely return when we’re in the area. As a footnote, we were surprised to see BBQ Brisket on the menu so we took home an order to give it a try. Big mistake! The meat was dry and flavorless and the sticky sweet sauce didn’t help. Barbecue is hard to get right. Instead of trying to please everyone, the “Lobster Shack” should stick to what it does best."
