The Counter 2580 West El Camino Real, Mountain View, CA 94040

"Eager to satisfy my hunger, I excitedly chose this nearby place with promising 4-star reviews. Unfortunately, my experience fell short of expectations at The Counter. Despite ordering the Nashville Hot with Parmesan fries in advance, the wait was extended, and upon finally getting my meal, it was disappointingly cold. The cheese on the fries had solidified, and while the brioche bun was good, the chicken piece felt small in comparison. The sandwich was average, and I've had better elsewhere, like the Chick-fil-A sandwich. Overall, the value didn't measure up, and the sauce lacked memorability. I recently tried Dave's Hot Chicken, and its higher quality and genuine spiciness make it a preferable choice for my next meal. The only good thing was their signature Pomegranate Berry Lemonade."

"Found it by accident while at work. Food was ok but I think the cook is learning. Everything was hot. Cooked to order and other than a little over cooked for my taste. The secret hamburger sauce was pretty good. They had tater tots and were nice and crispy. I would like to try it again one day."

"Handicapped friendly, absolutely clean and welcoming ambience. Staff was attentive and efficient. Food was absolutely wonderful. Not only did it look just like it came out of a magazine, but it tasted as great as it looks. Pics no filter. Will be back again. Even packing it was clean."

"Louis was great! Burgers are tasty for the right price. Love the atmosphere. Got seated immediately our server Louis explained the menu and he took care of us from beginning to end. Bar drinks were delicious. Will be back! Suggest you stop by and get a real burger not a fast food patty."

"First time ordering out from here. At first when I walked in to pick up my order, they seemed just a little disorganized. There seemed to be some issue with a person's order that I don't know much about. I ordered a Banana Split shake and the Burrata Burger with no sides. The burger meat itself wasn't really seasoned well if it was supposed to be and it was a bit dry (ordered it medium well). What made it enjoyable were the toppings that were included with the burger. Burrata cheese, roasted tomatoes, balsamic fig glaze, arugula, and red onions. I didn't know what Burrata cheese was but I really enjoyed it. It's just a form of mozzarella, which is my favorite cheese. But the combination of the arugula and the balsamic fig glaze made each bite enjoyable. If I choose to go back I'll order something else for a new experience. Also the shake tasted good as there was a strong presence of banana in it."
