How this place doesn't have five stars on Yelp is truly beyond my understanding! Howie's is fabulous! Their pizza is great, their service is always top-notch, and their cesar salads are DIVINE. To be totally honest, we come here for the pizza crust (perfect in every way) and that cesar salad dressing and croutons!

Refreshingly human and non-pretentious restaurant experience. I have lived at Stanford for 6 years and been to T&C many times. Gott's could build a new wing with the dollars I've spent there. Yet I'd never popped into Howie's. [Side note: this is true for many businesses at this outdoor mall; there are way more than meets the eye and it doesn't matter how many times you go - you can always find something new.] Thanks to the 3rd annual Yelp Treasure Hunt event last night, I stopped by to taste a sample of their homemade focaccia. It was being served by none other than Howie the owner and namesake of the business. He started by offering me water. I didn't even realize I needed water. And the bread itself was noteworthy. A great hum of garlic fills the air of the place, but not in a repelling way (I'm no vampire). He and the bread were approachable, as was the bartender. After the event, my friend and I were going to stop by because she wanted to bring a dessert home to her family; something about the dessert menu caught her eye. But when we came back, we were welcomed warmly and realized it would be fun to stay a little while longer. The hospitality continued with the kind bartender who never left my water glass unfilled (again, I had no idea how dehydrated I was but I think I drank more water here than I have in the past, scorching summer week). We had some delicious arancini which are goey, cheesy, rice balls (napkin required!) and papas bravas with a smoked paprika that gave them a really scrumptious flavor. These appetizers are heavy and if I weren't driving, I'd have also joined my friend in a glass of rose - perfectly acidic to cut the heaviness of the dishes. I didn't order a main course this time but my friend ended up taking home a chicken salad which looked fresh and delicious and a chocolate German cake. I want to reiterate that the service was really stand out here. It felt like a family business. It tasted like home cooked food. I really don't know how many places like this (still?) exist in Palo Alto, but the place has soul. And I didn't even try the pizza! I'm going for the potato one when I return.

Came here for a Sunday evening dinner and really enjoyed our meal. We sat outside, our server was kind and helpful making a few recommendations since it was our first visit. We got the chicken caesar salad and a pizza that was half baked potato and half Mexicali rose. The caesar salad was delicious with amazing croutons, and good quality chicken. The pizza was also so delicious and so well packed with toppings that each piece was so filling that we had plenty of leftovers to take home. The only warning is that the Mexicali rose pizza is extremely spicy! We look forward to coming back!

I placed a to go order through the DoorDash app today. My mom and I shared a margherita pizza and the chopped salad, she has some dietary restrictions, so I called to make sure that could be accommodated before placing the order and notes. The gentleman who spoke with me on the phone was really helpful and nice to work with. Arrived at the restaurant and food was already ready, and it was the same gentleman who I spoke with, he showed me the notes it shows on their end. Mom and I ate outside because we were going to visit someone at the hospital, he noticed us and unprompted brought out a couple waters on this hot summer day. SO NICE AND THOUGHTFUL - thank you sir!!! Sorry didn't get his name :( Margherita pizza was great ! Very tasty and yummy crust. The chop salad was also good and very fresh. We liked the dressings and very healthy portion size.
