I agree...

this place is not happening now or anytime soon like its sister location in Palo Alto. They charge a cover of $10.00 at 9pm at Burlingame Ave. while it is free at Palo Alto, a more pleasing crowd! The food also sucks....$10.00 for a quesadilla, what a rip-off! No wonder no one was there except for the 2 bouncers acting like hot shots!

• Pros: nothing
• Cons: , lousy crowd or, no crowd at all

The Worst Restaurant

by rzemser at Citysearch

Fanny and Alexander is one of the worst places to eat. Their prices are inflated, they charge for soda and icetea refills and the portions are tiny. For 12 dollars I got a tiny salad with four miniscule prawns. I was then charged 5 dollars for 2 ice teas (regular, not long island!) with my dinner. What a ripoff! I am not suprised that the place was quite empty.

I emailed the owner and complained, he could not even be bothered to reply!

• Pros: Big Space, easy to find, easy to park in BG
• Cons: , Cheap owner, Small portions
