Phil’s Kitchen - Menlo Park

Phil's is named after the owner, he's a great guy, he's always around and is always happy to make conversation with everyone who comes in. He learns your name and makes sure to remember you and what you'd like to eat. Having such a personal touch makes the experience of dining here worth every penny The food portions are generous and oh so delicious .

This cozy family-owned restaurant is one of the best for those on a budget. It operates similar to Panda Express, with food ready for you to select. Perfect for a fast and tasty meal!

We had a great dining experience at this restaurant. I ordered the kalua pig and pork Lau Lau combo, while my wife chose the bbq combo. The only downside was that the rice was overcooked.

You can tell a restaurant cares about their food when they make a fresh batch instead of serving what's left in the tray. The Pho broth was delicious as well. I will definitely be returning for more, as it hit the spot.

This is an off-the-beaten path local eatery. But there is a nice sign when you turn off from El Camino. They have grab and go chinese if you are in a hurry. I had the House Fried Rice, which is way different from other places. It had shrimp, roast duck and chinese sausage. And then fried in duck fat. Very tasty. Phil is very friendly and knows the regulars. Of course, I came in two days in a row, so that made it easy. As another review said, 'Prices are very reasonable by local standards, though I 'd hesitate to call them low. ' This is Menlo Park. Nothing is low. Gas is expensive. Housing is expensive. And the food is understandably higher than . . . . in Ohio.
