What if I don't want to drive to downtown Palo Alto for a massage? Shouldn't the "Best of Mountain View" be businesses in _Mountain_View_?

Chef Chu
Armadillo Willy
Watercourse Way
The Linden Tree

I've actually been to all of these places and they're quite good but what does Mountain View have to offer in these categories?

Not only is Chef Chu's not in MV, it isn't even close in quality to Cafe Yulong. Boooooo, Voice!

I totally agree with VQH, the Voice staff blew it again! Soo many Chinese restaurants in Mtn. View and the list not one but two outside the city.

Fix it next time!

Total FAIL!

Looks like MAYBE somebody greased somebody's palms on some of the choices and yes, I think the "winners" should be MOUNTAIN VIEW businesses, NOT Palo Alto, Los Altos and/or Sunnyvale. Being a former long time Mountain View resident and coming from the Old Downtown area we have tried and eaten at a lot of those places that DIDN'T make your "List" and must agree with a lot of the other commenters some of the choices are unworthy.

Just to clarify: The Voice staff does not pick the winners, we report on the results of the vote from our readers who chose to participate in the online ballot.

Was the poll for the Best of Mountain View or Best Local businesses? If it's the former, why bother including responses for businesses not in Mountain View?

This happened last year as well. I don't vote anymore.
