The 15 Best Restaurants in Menlo Park - San Francisco - The Infatuation
"The chilled green grape chaas, an elegant spin on the chaat classic pani puri, is one of the most unique bites of food we’ve had in a long time, and also a perfect representation of the food at this Indian spot—both comfortingly familiar yet refreshingly new. What sets Eylan apart is its emphasis on California produce and woodfire cooking, as seen in the smoked eggplant with yogurt and chili oil and the cornish hen in a tomatillo butter chicken-inspired sauce that’s equal parts nostalgia and surprise. The cocktails and mocktails go toe-to-toe with the food, and they even have a low ABV menu if you want to split the difference. Come for a date night, a celebratory dinner, or anytime you want to feel like you’re falling in love with Indian food for the first time. Tables fill up quickly, even on weeknights, but the gleaming marble bar is comfortable and visually stunning, so don’t hesitate to stop in if you don’t have a reservation." - gabi moskowitz
