Where to go if this does not fit
If the group wants Mexican food specifically, choose Reposado first. If the night calls for a more structured dinner with a heavier feel, Arya Steakhouse is the better match.

Nobu Palo Alto is the stronger choice for sushi and a higher-polish Japanese meal, but it is also the peer to treat as more occasion-driven.

For value and ease, Peninsula Fountain Grill and Bare Bowls are the practical cross-shops: the former for a casual sit-down mood, the latter for a quicker, lighter meal. Reposado is the cleaner Mexican comparison, so check it first if cuisine is the deciding factor rather than timing or location.
