Cafe Pro Bono

"I had a private event here and it was excellent! Every dish was delicious, and the service was exceptional. The gnocchi was a huge hit, and everyone really liked the salmon option (don't remember what the full listing was) and the veal marsala. The goat cheese salad was also very popular. They made a nice simple spaghetti for the child in attendance. There were good, solid options for our attendees who needed allergy accomodations."

"Heartwarming little restaurant! Definitely Americanized Italian cuisine, but not bad nonetheless. Very polite staff and cozy interior."

"We had an amazing dinner with exceptional service. Everyone was very friendly and our waitress was the best. When my friend was having trouble deciding on a wine, she gave her a taste of a few of their options with a genuine smile and pep. She clearly enjoys working there. The ambiance was so inviting, especially with the holiday decorations. All the food was delicious. We will definitely be back."

"Decided to have lunch at CPB since it's been a while. Service was really good! The food was delicious. Carpaccio was sliced really thin like it should be and tasty. The smoked salmon panini was really good! Lastly the risotto was creamy and the Mary's chicken slices on the risotto really tender and delicious. You can tell how good the carpaccio and risotto was based on the pictures of the empty plates."

"Cozy Italian restaurant. You have both indoor and outdoor seating. All pretty spacious given it is at the heart of Palo Alto. The food quality are ok, not mind blowing good, but it is good. The staffs are all super friendly. You are looking at 50+ per person without drink."
