Paying for the Scene. Harry scores Ettan 73/100 for quality and 70/100 on the Worth It scale for Palo Alto. One caveat: You're getting an experience. Whether you needed it is up to you.
Ettan has real agreement across sources — 4.2 from over two thousand Google reviews, 4.1 from sixteen hundred-plus on Yelp — which at that volume means the consensus is earned, not a fluke of a small sample. A Michelin Guide listing on top of that is notable, though it's worth separating out: Michelin recognition and a #85 ranking out of 376 Palo Alto spots aren't measuring the same thing, and the latter suggests a crowded field where this isn't cracking the very top even with the critical nod. Cal-Indian in an expansive, skylit room at this price point reads as a special-occasion bet more than a neighborhood regular.
TripAdvisor: #85 of 376 locally
