"Great local bagel house. You can find a great variety of bagels and ingredients for a reasonable price. It is quite a ritual around San Carlos, people stop by in the morning to get their bagel. Service is quick, but you might find a little queue at the entrance, it should not take you longer than 10/15min max I would say. Worth it to try!"

"I'm so glad to have a solid sandwich option in DTSC. I'm going to really miss Gracie's, but Lou's is so far a suitable replacement. The first thing you notice is their bread. It's fresh! It's soft! And it's still crispy! I ordered the Kick'N RB, which is on Dutch Crunch. So the bread is crucial. Next, you notice that there isn't a brick of cheap meat on there. There's a sufficient amount of meat, and it's high quality. And, finally, they have delicious sauces, but nottoo much. Like I said, the ingredients are high quality, so there's no need to drown them out with sauce. Well done!"

"+Iced oat milk latte with their house made almond syrup was one of the best lattes I’ve ever had. Wow-so many delicious layers to it.+Almond croissant was delicious+chocolate chip and fudge cookies are exceptional+goat cheese KA was unique and surprisingly well balanced-lemon bread was ok. Dense and lacking in flavorSuch a cute place! Nice and bright with friendly team members. Fair prices and quick service."

"For the record I am a long time lover of Peet?s. I went into this Peet?s in San Mateo and ended up having to wait between five and 10 minutes for them to clear the orders ahead of me and, I guess, deal with their online orders. When it was finally my turn i ordered a coffee and asked the clerk if she would comp me a shot of espresso for my troubles. To which she responded, Twice, that she could not do that. I told her that if she couldn?t take care of a customer then I was going to walk and she just looked me in the eye and repeated, I can?t do that. So I left. Too bad, I won?t be coming back to this Pete?s, I don?t like the way they treat their customers."

"Came for an early Saturday dinner and were seated right away (for context a big 49ers game may have had something to do with this). I ordered the chicken paitan, my friend ordered the hakata tonkotsu, and we split the pirikara special. Highly recommend the pirikara! The chicken was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside and the chili sauce gave it a mild spicy kick. As other reviews mention the noodles are on the thinner side, but the broth wasoutstanding rich and creamy and really made the ramen. Service was excellent. Food came out quickly, and the waitstaff were all polite and checked in on us often. Especially impressive since the space quickly filled up with otherdiners after we were seated. Will definitely be back!"
