The Top 10 Restaurants In Redwood City, California
‘Climate best by government test,’ Redwood City’s motto, may be on the way out as the climate changes. ‘Look out, under construction’ would be an apt replacement — over the past decade, construction and renovation has added dozens of restaurants to the city. Redwood City may lack the size of San Jose or San Francisco, but whether you’re looking for a quick bite or something more substantial, there’s more than enough here to please your palate. Here are 10 of the best dining establishments in the area.
1. The Habit
The Habit
Yes, this is a chain, but it’s a good chain. There’s a reason The Habit has grown from one humble burger joint in Santa Barbara into a hundred upscale, casual restaurants – they’re really good at making hamburgers. Combine a solid main product with a surprisingly variable menu (if you can find any other burger place that has both teriyaki sandwiches and thick chocolate malts, go ahead and eat there instead), fast wait times, and very reasonable prices, and The Habit more than earns its place on this list.

8. Tacos El Grullense
Tacos El Grullense
Grullense, located on the outskirts of Redwood City’s downtown, boasts a vibrant atmosphere. Everything from the bright colors to the fast service to the crowd suggests activity. ‘We’re all busy,’ Grullense seems to say. ‘Here’s your delicious Mexican food. Get out of here.’ If the food wasn’t good, this would be arrogant, but Grullense offers three kinds of dip with an order of chips and makes enchiladas with cheese that literally sticks to the plate, so there’s no problem there.
