East Palo Alto (abbreviated E.P.A.) is a city in San Mateo County, California, United States. As of the 2010 census, the population of East Palo Alto was 28,155. It is situated on the San Francisco Peninsula, roughly halfway between the cities of San Francisco and San Jose. To the north and east is the San Francisco Bay, to the west is the city of Menlo Park, and to the south the city of Palo Alto. Despite being called "East" Palo Alto, this is a misnomer, as the city is precisely due north of Palo Alto. While often incorrectly assumed to be part of the city of Palo Alto, East Palo Alto has always been a separate entity since its founding as an unincorporated community. It is also in San Mateo County, while Palo Alto is in Santa Clara County. The two cities are separated only by San Francisquito Creek and, largely, the Bayshore Freeway (the vast majority of East Palo Alto is northeast of the freeway, while all of the residential part of Palo Alto is southwest of the freeway). The revitalization projects in 2000, and high income high-tech professionals moving into new developments, including employees from Google and Facebook, have begun to eliminate the cultural and economic differences between the two cities. East Palo Alto and Palo Alto share both telephone area codes and postal ZIP codes.

Chicken Tikka in a burrito? Yes please! This was a big hit with three generations in my family. My 2 young kids and parents, my wife and I all left super satisfied with the food! The service was excellent - the staff friendly and happy to give excellent recommendations. One minor bit of constructive criticism - the music was a little loud. Otherwise it was a fantastic dinner.

We love the food at Zareen's. We're not big fans of restaurants where you stand in line to order and they eventually bring you your food but we make an exception for Zareen's as the food is so good.It is extremely popular and sometimes the line is way out the door to the sidewalk. It's also sometimes hard to find a place to sit. Most of the seating is outside. Prices are reasonable and they are pretty efficient at getting the food out and delivered to your table.

We took a few friends visiting from Washington DC to Darbar since they wanted to have North Indian Food. We were very fortunate to get free street parking right outside the restaurant. Parking around the vicinity of University avenue in Palo Alto can be a challenge so allow sufficient time to find parking.We had called ahead and made reservations for 7 but had a last minute addition to our guest list which the manager graciously accommodated our party of 8. We decided to have their lunch buffet for $12. They had a large variety of vegetable dishes including butter chicken, BBQ chicken etc. For desserts they had Kheer or rice in sweet milk and gulabjamoons - round balls kind of like beignet but deep fried and soaked in sugar syrup. The food was good but not spicy at all. They did serve hot and fresh butter naan multiple times when requestedOverall a nice and reasonable priced Indian restaurant in Palo Alto.

I went there for a business dinner with Indian colleagues. I was the only non Indian person there. The food was delicious. We ordered a total of about 15 dishes including appetizers to share among 6 of us. Chicken Tika-Masala was delicious. The service was a little slow, but the food more than made up for it.
