Where To Eat In San Bruno?

Ok, so I love to help people buy and sell houses but still I need to eat! I LOVE to eat and I love to cook! I love to dine out and I love family and friend gatherings at home over a large home cooked meal. Since I live and work in San Bruno, I like to dine locally. Sometimes I go to San Francisco, my hometown, but most of the time, when we have the opportunity to dine out, we go local!
A few of my favorite places are Don Pico’s for Mexican fine dining, La Paloma Taqueria, Hon Lin for Chinese, Sushi House, Famous Johnny’s for pizza and beer, Amma’s Kitchen for Indian, and the West Coast Cafe for Italian. All of these places are walking distance from my house.
Living in San Bruno is really super convenient. From my house, I can walk to the Mexican market, the dry cleaners, the library, and the corner grocery store. Not to mention I can walk to my kids’ school, our friends’ houses on Friday nights for “family fun nights”, and my office, if I am so inclined. I always drive and it’s just 6 blocks away!
I love Don Pico’s a lot! I mean a lot lot! My favorite dish is the crab enchiladas with green sauce made with “real” crab! I could live on the chips and salsa. I love spicy salsa with good flavor! I also love the ambiance at Don Pico’s. It’s a warm, comfortable room with a lot of traditional Mexican decorations and some impressive ones, too! My favorite being a big framed picture of Frida Khalo! The booths are from Original Joe’s on Powell Street in San Francisco! The proprieter is Isaac Mejia. He’s great! He is welcoming, enthusiastic about his food, and keeps his menu delicious and interesting. He’s currently the president of the San Bruno Lion’s Club. His sisters help at the restaraunt, too. They are fantastic! On Friday and Saturday nights there is a live guitar player/singer. It’s just awesome!

Karin,
I like your list. I will add the new Hamburger place in Bayhill. Had a delicious burger the other day.
El Patio is good for a burrito and Grand Leader for a sandwhich or cofee.

Yes! I forgot Big Mouth! I got 19 comments and other great San Bruno recommendations in just a few hours on Facebook on this post! Grand Leader is the BEST for sandwhiches! Alot of people like Big Joe’s!

Thanks Karin!
What a great idea to blog about local eateries.
I agree with all you and Lee mentioned, and I will remind those who like “chain” restaurants, don’t forget Pasta Pomodoro, Extreme Pizza, BJ’s, Chili’a, Red Lobster, and now Hooter’s!!!
All great choices, some walls have strated to go up on the newset San Bruno Restaurant “Jack’s” at the Crossing – hopefully open by this fall.
