Fun ambience, friendly attentive staff, mostly reasonable prices. The cocktails are incredible. My friend and I each had a burger and it was outstanding. The snack plate was a fair deal and included popcorn, olives and assorted cheeses. The staff treated us like family and were always smiling and friendly.

Excellent food. Pizza crust was crispy on the outside yet soft on the inside, mocktails were delicious and the homemade pasta was fresh. Highly recommend .

    Been to Delfina twice now. Ate inside once, outside once. Two different pizzas. Both were superb. The first was a prosciutto and shaved parmesan. Delish. The second one was the Napolenta -- red sauce with olives, peppers, capers and ANCHOVIES! Our server asked if I was ok with anchovies and laughed when I said "isn't that the point of this pizza!" I did add sausage to it -- fabulous! One of the best and most flavorful pizzas I have ever had. The crust in both pizzas was perfect, as often crusts don't get the attention they deserve. This place is now my go to place for pizza in Palo Alto and I'll certainly be back.
