Che Fico Parco Menlo

Che Fico Parco Menlo - Review - Palo Alto - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"For a leisurely Italian meal with an all-healing negroni that can fix any derailed week or elevate a routine date night, there’s Che Fico’s Parco Menlo. The Italian mini-chain has locations throughout the Bay Area, and this one, just like others has solid housemade pasta and pies. The patio is an oasis of greenery that is the perfect backdrop for a noodle-heavy dinner. Try the casonchelli–tender, thin pasta packages of luscious crab in a buttery, lemony sauce, or the radiatori in a just-spicy-enough vodka sauce. The blistered, charred-crust woodfired pizzas are excellent–especially the Genoa, with fava leaf, buttery green olives, and spicy honey. Walk-ins are easy on weekdays, but aim for a reservation on weekends." - Gabi Moskowitz
