Farm & Vine American Bistro

**Farm & Vine Review** I met a friend for brunch at Farm & Vine and arrived at 11:30 AM. While disappointed there was no brunch menu, the lunch options and cocktails didn't disappoint. We shared Brussels sprouts, beet-cured salmon (special), fries, and seafood paella. The Brussels sprouts were perfectly cooked, and the fries came with tasty Bloody Mary ketchup and truffle aioli. The beet-cured salmon was vibrant and delicious. The paella, more risotto-style than Spanish, was good but not outstanding. Cocktails were well-crafted and enjoyable. With a quiet atmosphere, clean outdoor seating, and attentive staff, I'd definitely return for drinks and small plates.

We were a large party of 10 and was seated promptly. However after looking over the menu for a while, we realized half of the party were given the lunch menu so they had to scramble to give us the dinner menu. When ordering drinks, the waitress skipped some people so we had to call her back. When it was time to give her our dinner order, she stayed on one side of the table the entire time so people at the end had to yell their orders to her. It was very odd as to why she didn't just come around to the other side of the long table to take our orders. The appetizers, burrata and calamari, were very good and paired well with the herb bread they gave us. The pastas and burger was also decent although I personally thought the Pasta Bolognese was just alright. The goat cheese is the most prominent flavor while the meat sauce takes a backseat. I prefer red sauces that have a strong tangy tomato and meaty flavor and this sauce wasn't like that. Prices are average to high for what you get although that's expected in this part of Burlingame. Their website says the concept of the restaurant is to provide a cozy experience for their customers. They say this four times. I'm not sure if a mix of little Italian statues with high contrast photos of famous celebrities is "cozy". I also expected a place called Farm & Vine would say where their ingredients are from; maybe locally, from local farms, from local vineyards?? But there is no mention at all to why they called the restaurant this or where their food is sourced from. All in all it was okay. I probably won't be returning as I feel there are better tasting food nearby for the same or more affordable price. If you're looking for a place where they source local ingredients I would recommend Grill House in Redwood Shores. It's family owned and their food ingredients and beers are all local; sourced from California. They even have a blackboard inside the restaurant that lists the location and farm where the meat and vegetables are from.

Went here for a family dinner with our son and loved the vibe!Very authentic Italian restaurant feel, hard to come by these days.They had an extensive selection of drinks, and I loved my cab and the generous pour size. The service was attentive and friendly.Everything we ordered was good, I did find some of the food to be under seasoned but that is my preference - and the table salt/pepper helped.Look fwd to going back again!

Nice American- Italian restaurant in Burlingame. Visited here for a work event and the service was great. We tried the burrata, calamari, and brussel sprouts as starters and I tried the papardelle pasta as my main dish. Everything was very tasty. The mocktail (I think it was called a "winter cooler") was only ok. Ambiance was warm and welcoming. Great place to bring colleagues or friends.

We came here for an early dinner last Sunday. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. There weren't many other customers there when arrived, so we were seated inside right away. The restaurant has a warm and cozy vibe to it, and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. Our order for drinks was taken right away, and the drinks and some bread was brought to us quickly. The food was delicious, fresh and well prepared. Everything we might have asked for was brought to the table ahead of time. Every detail had been thought out about the needs of the customer. Very rare in most places today, giving Farm & Vine an A+ in service and exclusion. Our waitress was warm and friendly and provided excellent service. When we were leaving we noticed the place was packed with almost every table both inside and out filled. This was kind of surprising on a Sunday night. This is a testament to how wonderful this restaurant is. I fully recommend if you want an excellent dinner experience, run don't walk to Farm & Vine American Bistro. We look forward to coming here again sometime.

Ordered a paella on uber eats and it only came with (extremely dry) chicken and clams!! For context, website and UberEats advertises the dish to have Calamari, Scallops, Prawns, Clams, Mussels, and Chicken. Extremely disappointing as I had been wanting to try this place for so long. Don't order on a food delivery app if you don't want to get scammed.

This is an amazing location The staff is very kind and welcoming I love the ambiance here very elegant Perfect for our date we came here We had such a great time at this wonderful restaurant We had a delicious dessert a picture worth a thousand words Over all 5 stars if not more

Service is attentive, ambiance is romantic, food is off the hook, The lobster cake is special and favorable, the roaster cauliflower is roasted well not overcooked where it falls off l, squid ink pasta was cooked to perfection. The short rib is soft and the lobster risotto has a table and fluffed rice not too heavyThe house purple wine was on part and heavy body. Love to return

I literally made a yelp account just to say this restaurant had some of my favorite food from my most recent trip to Northern California.I ordered the special, a mushroom risotto, and almost licked the plate clean! It was absolutely delicious and the perfect portion.A friend and I split the chocolate lava cake for desert (gelato on the side as she has a dairy allergy); it was the best desert I had all week. If I'm ever back in the area, I'm definitely returning.

This restaurant has a relaxing decor. It is comfortable for an intimate dinner experience, family, friends or a group. I thoroughly enjoyed our Caprese appetizer, our herb focaccia, garlic bread, olive oil, butter, dressings and each one of us enjoyed our pastas!!!*** A minor note to the chef reminding them about the preference of your customer. Mine is pasta al dente. Simply stated we all were quite satisfied. And so will you!!! Enjoy!!!!
