    Food: 5/5 Service: 4/5 Price: 4/5 TL;DR: Came on a Monday for Trivia Night and it was packed with lots of people so I suggest coming early or reserving a table if you want to participate in Trivia. There's also fireplace seating if you could snag that. Otherwise, there is a back area for people who don't want to participate. The staff is really nice but can be a little slow -- but it's also super busy so I don't blame them. Trivia was really fun, however, the staff that ran it was a little rude. Overall, still super fun and I'd come back for trivia again since trivia drinks are great and the appetizers are delicious. Calamari: *5/5*: Super crispy, the batter is very flavorful, you also get fried peppers & artichoke hearts. The aioli and tartar sauce also goes really well with the calamari Cheesy Garlic Bread: *5/5*: Can't really go wrong with this -- fluffy, toasty bread with cheese & garlic. Would be even better if they served it with marinara sauce Onion Rings: *5/5*: Super crispy, the batter is very flavorful & not too thick. These technically aren't on the menu to order as a standalone (think you'd only see it on the menu as a substitute/add on for a sandwich), but just ask the waiter & you can order it (~$5)

    I've passed this place a few times and never really realized it,  until I actually went. I happened to find it on google and was surprised how close it was to my work.   On the outside, it looks simple, but once you enter, it's inviting.      Upon walking in, the restaurant is divided in half. The right side is kind of an open outdoor seating area - it has a roof and walls but open where you feel a breeze. You can basically watch the cars coming by.  It's really comfy and cozy.  Some seating areas have a fire pit and old school ball park type seats.  Inside, they have booths, seating area at the bar, and high stools.  I can imagine this place being pretty packed on a Friday night. Watching a game or whatnot. For this visit, we ordered: 1.  Firecracker shrimp - I was surprised the shrimp was huge.   It felt like a two- bite shrimp. Crunchy and flavorful. 2.  Slider Trio w/ garlic tots -  Garlic tots are definitely the way to go.  They hold a lot of flavor in each bite.   For this, I chose the buffalo chicken, angus burger, whiskey pulled pork.  All were solid choices. 3.  Corn Ribs -  Easy to eat, but oh, so messy.   It is like an elote but packs some heat.  It definitely had me able to breathe.. IYKYK 4.  Pub club  -  Ginormous and meaty.  The chicken was juicy, and the bacon was thick.  As big as the sandwich was, you got a perfect bite each time.  The fries were surprisingly good as well, m 5.  Fish tacos - Very flavorful. The fish was light and flaky. The coleslaw and pico de gallo gave it a refreshing and crisp crunch.  It's best to eat it right away.  Huge serving, and it is best to share with someone else. 6.  Skirt steak -  The steak was tender and perfectly seasoned.  Veggies paired well. 7.  Churros -  Surprisingly good.  It wasn't too sweet, but it was perfect for dipping in caramel sauce. It also went well with the ice cream. 8.  Chocolate Brownie - Not your ordinary brownie.  When we got home, I warmed it up and added the chocolate drizzle and ice cream.. Yummy comfort dessert.    Overall,  I highly recommend this place.   When I entered, the gentleman who worked there was super nice and helped me to pick the perfect items for our first visit.  I will definitely be back soon.

    Location: 1748 El Camino Real, San Carlos, CA 94070 Atmosphere: The Office offers classic American food that can be enjoyed around firepits in a partially enclosed outdoor space. The food is mediocre but the vibe is fantastic. There are two different bars, and the Office offers fun events such as live music and trivia. This is a great place for happy hour, dinner, or casual drinks with friends- fur friends and human friends. Go-to orders: Boneless chicken wings * Jalapeno poppers * Buffalo chicken salad Insider tips: * Happy hour with $2 off select drinks and cheaper food options * Great for casual dates, happy hour with friends * A little loud and chaotic - don't expect calm, fine dining
