===Restaurants===
−
* Bangkok Bay Thai Cuisine, 825 El Camino Real at Broadway, Redwood City, CA (650) 365-5369. Worth going out of your way for these folks and the wonderful food they make. Nice place for a working lunch or dinner, or to take your favorite date.
−
* New Kapadokia Restaurant, 2399 Broadway Street, Redwood City, CA (650) 368-5500. Fabulous Turkish food.
−
* La Fiesta Mexican Restaurant, 314 Arguello Street, Redwood City, CA (650) 780-0801
−
* Amelia's, 2042 Broadway, Redwood City, CA (650) 368-1390. Salvadorean food. Good pupusas. There is seating outside.
−
* Yokoyama Japanese Restaurant, 1784 Broadway Street, Redwood City, CA (650) 369-2299. A little east of the core of RWC's downtown, this nondescript looking restaurant serves up fresh and fabulous sushi for not too much out of pocket. One might wish We Be Sushi in San Francisco had as much room as this sleeper!
−
* Bluefyn Party Sushi, 2327 Broadway Street, Redwood City, CA (650) 361-1160. Mainly a catering and take-away hole in the wall cafe (especially while construction downtown drags on), this is a great little cafe around the corner from the CalTrain station. Fresh sushi to go, pre-packed or made to order.
−
* Sichuan Delight, 2525 El Camino Real near the Target Center, Redwood City, CA (650) 701-0814. Good Sichuan cooking with no MSG and lots of choices for the vegan and vegetarians in the crowd. Free delivery in the Redwood City area.
−
* Harry's Hofbrau, 1909 El Camino Real, just N of Hwy. 84, Redwood City, CA (650) 366-3733. A carvery and brewery in the old German biergarten style, only thankfully without the oompah band.
−
* Tacos El Grullense, 2401 Middlefield Road, Redwood City, CA 94063 (650) 369-9013. Authentic street food from a Mexican village tradition! Trade ambiance for flavor. There are several El Grullense locations in Redwood City. Cash only.
−
* Young's Ice Cream, Broadway. Ice cream parlor with old-fashioned bins of candy.
