    I have been wanting to try this restaurant for the last 4 months, and finally had a special birthday event to make reservations. Meyhouse had a nice table reserved for us, and a note placed on the table recognizing my wife's birthday. We did not pay for the jazz concert that was occurring during our dinner, but it did not fill the restaurant with music so we were able to still have a private conversation. Expensive meal, but so worth the money because of the food quality and excellent service. My only comment was limited wine selection on the menu, but when you see their wine bottle display near the restrooms it had other wines that were not listed.

    The food was good…. However we appetizers and a salad and we didn’t get our salad and had to remind our server a couple of times and got it right before our main dish. We also ordered a side of white rice with a main dish and it came 15 min later than the main dish and it was a scoop of cold rice which was $16.00. At no point was there an apology for the late salad or the late cold rice.

    Too loud and music became a show stopper especially towards the end as it was indelible and totally out of context of a fine dining experience

    Always a pleasure to dine at Meyhouse in Palo Alto. The food and service were exceptionally good this time around. Waiter suggested a great bottle of wine. Eggplant with yogurt and dumpling for the apps, Lamb chops, Grilled chicken with Orzo for the mains. Turkish coffee martini for dessert. Phenomenal dining. Already looking forward to our next visit.
