The location is not the best and I didn't expect a very good restaurant in El Camino in Belmont. But at Iron Gate, there guys know how to make steaks, their steak Diane is one of the best steaks. The ceasers salad is very good too. Try the souffle for desert, very delicious. Overall, I think the food at Iron... More

Over the years we have been to the Iron Gate many times for special occasions like birthdays, anniversaries and the like. We went yesterday just because we wanted a fine meal with good service. The Iron gate is traditional old style white table cloth and waiters in a tux. A dependable menu and large wine list. Table side service for... More

Like many of the other reviewers I dine at the Iron Gate because it serves consistantly good food and the service is always excellent. It is a great place to take a client for lunch but all the other reviewers say that. I am always choosing one of the specials or other menu dishes that they prepare so well but... More

Very good food with a great location. I came with no reservation but they found a table. The service is really good and I totally recommend this restaurant.

We owed our daughter a gigantic thank you for favors recently performed for us. We asked her to pick her favorite restaurant in the San Francisco/Peninsula area.

My husband and I enjoy going to the Iron Gate Restaurant in Belmont for special occasions like birthdays, Valentine's Day, anniversaries, etc. The attentive staff are in tuxes, white tablecloths, ambiance with cozy fireplace and the most delicious food. Each time we have the Caesar Salad made at our table and Zabaione (a delish warm custard whipped with Marsala at... More

As other reviewers have written -- if you want old-fashioned continental cuisine, perfectly executed, in a pretty room quiet enough for conversation -- and without paying high prices -- this place fills the bill. Excellent service, very pleasant experience throughout. I'll happily come back. Don't be put off by the unprepossessing exterior... or the bar you pass through to reach... More

I recently was in charge of a Xmas lunch for my golf group and we had a delicious meal at this restaurant. I had salmon with small potatoes cooked to perfection. The salad before was chilled just right and the dressing made it crisp and tangy. Great service, the waitors were fun and attentive and all 22 of us loved... More

It's rare that a place is great from start to finish, but this one is. From the genial waiters in tuxedos, the quiet atmosphere, and especially the delicious food, the Iron Gate excels. My veal was very tender and flavorful, the Greek salad excellent, and the wine list is great. Service was attentive. A great spot for a quiet dinner--and... More
