John Bentley's restaurants -- which one?

[Karen]

I won a $100 certificate for John Bentley's restaurant. There's one
restaurant in Woodside and one in Redwood City. Both look really good
on their websites.

Has anyone been to one of these and did you like it? Which one is
better? Any great items you may recommend?

Thanks,
Karen

Never even heard of it. Is that the actual name of the restaurant?
What's the website?

How many of your ba.food pals do you intend to invite along? ;-)

The Redwood City one is pretty easy to miss. It's on El Camino Real,
just a little "north" of the Atherton border, near K&L Wines.

Gotcha -- website also claims it's a new location, and I haven't driven
much that way lately.

I have been to the one in Woodside once, about 2 years ago. I recall
it as above average, but not great. I would much prefer The Village
Pub.

I just checked out their web site. Looks a little pricey, even for the BA.
Wine list is way overpriced.
What it mean when it says "Limit 2 bottles per reservation"? They also have
split charges. I'll go somewhere else. There are too many nice restaurants
in the BA to put up with this kind of thing.

I understood the "2 bottles per reservation" statement to be a limit on
the number of
"outside" bottles that may be brought in subject to the $20 corkage. I
recall that Chez
Panisse and some others have a similar limit.

The original poster stated that she won a $100 gift certificate to the
restaurants (John Bentley's). Going someplace else to use the gift
certificate is probably not an option. She just wanted to know which
one was better -- the one in Woodside or the one in Redwood City.
