Caffe Riace - Palo Alto

A wonderful Italian place, not just for dining, but awesome for events! Lovely outdoor courtyard and plenty tables and umbrellas, small bar tables and space to socialize and mingle. Great for a small gathering to large business event or party over 100! The food is served with love and care, chef kiss and the whole team is so wonderful and hard-working! Nancy , Lisa, Chris , Giuseppe, everyone is kind and attentive

Came here for a corporate dinner and was very happy with this spot. It’s a cute little hole in the wall and the food was awesome. I definitely recommend going here for a summer night and sitting outside!

A beautiful, outdoor ambiance paired with homemade bread and Italian themed statuary, how could one good wrong… Chef AJ had wonderful recommendations and made the experience even more special. A great restaurant to dine when your looking for a peaceful, calm getaway. Highly recommend their antipastos.

Hmm… Cafe Riace has beaten all the other Italian places in Palo Alto in our opinion. We have eaten at the other Italian resturant by the same owner and wanted to try our luck here. By far, this is the most relaxed, laid back Italian resturant in Palo Alto. Lots of open space art hand picked with spacious tables to dine outside. The food was prepared with care. Selection of wine is top notch. Tania and Yolanda took care of our table; they were super attentive with our needs and all other guests. Parking is super easy. We are impressed by the ambience, food and service.

I had the cannelloni and it was good. It could have been warmer. Also the service was super slow. Otherwise it was nice to sit outside.
