The Best Dishes Eater San Francisco’s Editors Ate in April 2025 | Eater SF

"Walking into this Palo Alto spot is described as "a sensorial experience so rare in Palo Alto I almost swore I was in some other city," with bold interior choices — huge splashes of blue, delicate wallpaper, tall portraits, art pieces and chandeliers — that set it apart from the surrounding, more generic dining rooms. The food is characterized as buttery and indulgent even when playing lighter: the paneer burji is called "an entree worth its weight in gold," with the nutty cheese bolstered by creamy avocado and tomato curry saucing the dish; "The snap peas in this dish are supreme: It’s the backbone all this soft, chewy goodness requires." The reviewer also notes a regional comparison: "Copra in San Francisco may be the sexy sophomore, but this vibrant mainstay in Silicon Valley defends its title — and then some." —Paolo Bicchieri" - Paolo Bicchieri
