Alice’s Restaurant - Woodside

5/5 stars

ATMOSPHERE: My kind of place! Where else can you sit outside on a huge wooden patio and have a satisfying burger after exploring the lovely Filoli and rub elbows with leather clad biker men under the gorgeous redwoods in sort of the middle of nowhere? Reason #4223 on why I love the Bay Area. 

FOOD: My 1/3 lb sirloin burger was perfectly cooked. Served up simple with cheddar, red onions, fresh tomatoes, lettuce, and a shmear of mayo, yellow mustard, and ketchup. The beer battered onion rings were awesome and a major brownie point - non-greasy! They came with a side of ranch. The garlic fries didn't satisfy a garlic lover like me on the garlic scale, but they were still pretty decent. The bf ordered a microbrew and a burger with sausage AND bacon (seriously, all it was missing was a fried egg) and enjoyed both. Oh, and I asked for extra pickles and was delighted when the friendly waitress brought back a whole plate full. They sure aren't skimpy here!
