Going to a half day training in east palo alto with my coworkers.
Looking for a reasonable place to eat that can accomdate 6-10 people.
Any ideas? Should we just head to university ave in regular palo alto?

 

Go to downtown palo alto. Tons of good restaurants there.

 

or you can get some killer tacos!! epa has great mexican food! you can also go to the center with home depot and they have a really good bbq place

 

"Three Brothers Tacos" hella good and cheap!

 

Technically Menlo Park, but... http://www.yelp.com/biz/back-a-yard-...ill-menlo-park

 

Tacos sound good. Any truck in particular?

 

+1 to backyard if you dont mind sitting in plastic lawn furniture

 

backayard is killer but get there early for lunch especially for 6-10 people. it's a very small place.

 

You can pick-out a good taco truck by the quality of it's awning. If the awning is clean and in good shape, the food is probably good.
Don't know how I came up with this system but it's served me well.

La Bamba is an awesome mexican place in Mountain View.... only 5 min south on the freeway

 

downtown will be kind of pricey. i wouldn't really suggest going around EPA, it can be kinda sketchy at times. One of my favorite taquerias is Los Altos Taqueria in Mountain View (go figure lol). It is actually kitty corner to La Bamba, and I personally think it is better, but to each their own. It is a couple blocks off of the Rengstorff exit and I think they have some of the best al pastor in the area. Very affordable and if it's not too busy they will have your burrito ready within 5 minutes of placing your order.

I've heard Back-A-Yard is very good too but have yet to try it out yet.

 

**oops, double post**

 

Plutos @ 482 University Ave @ Cowper is fantastic!
