Scratch

American comfort food done with fine-dining technique on Castro Street, with deep wooden booths, a generous cocktail bar, and a weekend brunch that draws a loyal downtown crowd.

Scratch cooks American classics reflecting today's influences on Castro Street in Mountain View, with a kitchen the restaurant sums up as good food done well. The Family Style Fried Chicken Dinner brings a whole chicken with spicy greens and bacon, macaroni and cheese, and mashed potatoes with porcini gravy, and the Scratch Burger comes with applewood smoked bacon and Vermont white cheddar. Dinner is served daily, brunch on Saturday and Sunday, and the bar pours craft cocktails, wine, and draught beer. A wine room handles semi-private parties.
