- VVANESSASan Francisco Bay Area •1 review4.0Dined 3 days agoAll in all it was fun! It is very small there are only like 5 chalets. We had the first one which was a blessing because it gave my kids some space to run around, otherwise it’s pretty tight for a family of 4 I was thinking they were a bit bigger. Our fire pit ran out of propane and it took at least 45 mins to get our fire pit back up. The food was good but the service was a bit slow my sister in law had to ask for our smores then they lit the burner for it and it took so long to come the burner ran out of flame and had to be re lit. All in all I think it’s a great date night but a little tight for more than 2!More infoApres Village - Four Seasons Silicon ValleyPrice: Very Expensive• Tapas / Small Plates• Palo Alto•3.6
