“This place is amazing and worth the stop! The pastries and coffee are delicious. You must try the bombolini! The pizza looks and smells appetizing but I have yet to try it. Staff is friendly, facilities are clean and I've never had trouble with parking.“

“Cozy and welcoming, with tasty food and friendly staff. :) I enjoyed the vegetarian ratatouille entree! The server said they are allergen friendly, too, and they have vegan and gluten free options. :)Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian and vegan options. I enjoyed the vegetarian ratatouille! It was unique; I hadn't had a dish like it before, and that was fun. :)“

“LOVE! If you've never been here, it's a must try! The food is AMAZING and the little area to eat with the fireplace is adorable too! The service is fast and professional, especially with how busy it always is, and you can just tell the employees care about their work! 10/10 recommend!“

“Really did enjoy most of our dishes. The lamb shank was delicious. Meat just fell off tje bone. Special pork chop with polenta was also delicious. The gastrique was a bit too sweet but did not ruin the dish for us. Service was fast and efficient. They request your stay is 90 minutes, and we were out well before. It's not very relaxing as your dish is cleared the moment you finish, but would definitely go again for the food!“

“Awesome service, nice people, and amazing food! Huge menu with tons of veggie options and meat options. Love the location in sj and this one is a great option for when you are needing your Ike's sandwich fix. Ample parking in the back and easy accessibility. I get the Jaymes sirewich on Dutch with all the freebies and it is a great sandwich with fried chicken“

“We loved our experience at Melinda’s! The food was amazing and the people that were working were so nice! Melinda even gave me recommendations for other celiac-safe restaurants in the area. I highly recommend this spot for those who follow a gluten-free diet and even those who don’t! My husband and daughter don’t eat gluten-free but they loved the food, too!“

“Had to wait a little. But I was in no rush. I got the mile high bagel sandwich, blueberry muffin, and latte. Everything was delicious. The sandwich looks small, but it was super filling. The bagel tasted like it was freshly made. It was soft and airy and nicely toasted. Very delicious! It's definitely worth the wait. Love to support local cafes. This one is in a quiet part of town by the bus station, and there's a library across the street. Not too much car traffic on a Monday morning.Kid-friendliness: Super kid friendly. They had toys inside for the kids, and the tables outside are fairly large.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp and automatic sliding doors.“

“This is our favorite pizza my heart location. The restaurant is big enough to accommodate larger groups. They have plenty of workers so the restaurant operates like a well oiled machine. The workers are super sweet and accommodating as well. We will always make a stop here while in town.“

“Love Pacific Cookie Company they are truly the best cookies in town other than my homemade cookies I make. The renovations that they have done to the store on pacific garden mall which is the flagship store are beautiful. I just love the colors and it just brightens up the place. You can't go wrong with any of the cookies. My favorite is still just the chocolate chip, but the almond joe and dr.midnight are all in my top 3 rotations every time I go. I also like that they still have bags of days olds that you can purchase for a discounted rate and trust me they are just as good a day or so later. All you have to do is wrap them in a wet paper towel and put them I. The microwave for about 15-20 seconds and they are perfect.“

“A great bakery located in Los Gatos on W Main Street/University Ave. My wife and I have been coming here off and on for years. They have street parking or parking lot in the back. Nicely decorated, yet simple. They also sell bakery accessories, etc. The customer service is nice, helpful, and friendly. Grab a number because they service by ticket numbers and get there early because they do run out of items. They are famous for their banana cake along with their banana cupcakes - moist, light, fluffy, and topped with a sweetened frosting. A must get!!! In addition, they sell whole cakes, loaves, cupcakes, cookies, etc.“

“Over 10 years I’ve been eating at this place. And I probably always will when in the area. The food this last time was fine overall (I had the corned beef) though the short French fries (there was no real hash) were dark and hard. And the bakery section did not have the good selection it used to have: first time I didn’t get a dessert. Other than that, it’s a great place.“

“Delicious soy golden milk! Perfectly spiced. It can be hard to find a non-caffeinated, warm beverage that fits the rich and creamy bill. Sweet, old time eclectic Santa Cruz vibe as well, and was provided very helpful and knowledgeable service by the individual at the register.“

“The best cappuccino I've ever tasted and all their hot/cold drinks are amazing!!! Cakes and pastries are the best thing ever!!!! Love them!! A true European gem where you don't have to travel to Paris to experience because they brought Paris here“

“So I'm not gonna lie when we first pulled up we thought it was gonna be busy but it was completely dead. We were considering of going somewhere else but we wanted to give it a chance so we went inside order our pizza and it was a breeze also very nice service and we also got to play some ping-pong while we waited for our food so that was fun, the vibes here are very local which is nice. Highly recommend this place if you'd like thin cut pizza, maybe add a little bit more extra red sauce because it was a little amount they put on but a great place overall come check it out you put yourself. Also, almost forgot the best part that it's woodfired pizza !!“

“Stopped in because Vegan Pizza was advertised and did not disappoint! The hot honey topping was perfect on the melty vegan cheese/veggie pizza. The wheat crust had an interesting fold and was crispy. I highly recommend the cinnabread! I ordered the candied pecans and ate the whole thing before I left the parking lot. 10/10 will return for another tasty pie or six!Vegetarian options: Veggie options and even a vegan option, too!“

“Genuine considerate service from both staff. Yummy coffee. Music on. Local art. Space and full menu. Wine as well. Wifi. Outdoor seating. Even half of those boxes is almost 5 stars. They have a little merch section as well. Thanks for the hospitality.“

“Came in before 10AM on a Saturday and there wasn't many treats left! This place opens at 9. I got the chocolate glazed "donut" and it's just a brioche bun, not in donut shape. Didn't like their latte, it was overly bitter and a bit too much foam for a latte. Maybe the barista mixed up the other customer's order, who got a cappochino.“

“Best drip coffee outside of my house hands down. Shook me! Dark and deep, not bitter or acidic. Wow ?!Great bagels, split the Deluxe Lox and it was perfect. Tomatoes look like they grew them on the spot, ripe and juicy. Everything bagel is my jam.Bags of day old bagels up for grabs but you better get there early cause people were walking out the door with their arms full.Very ample fish and cream cheese to bagel ratios. ??Full and satisfied but looking forward to my next visit.“

“Wow what an absolutely incredible brunch. The Bloody Mary and Irish Coffee were both awesome. The Irish Benedict had real corned beef that was absolutely delicious and tender. Pancakes were awesome and the shrimp and grits were addicting. Friendly staff made this one of the most enjoyable meals in a long time. Will absolutely be back soon.“

“The veganized nachos were delicious!Has vegan cheese options (additional charge) and can customize some items for vegan options. if you want to customize to add more protein or add items, it adds up $.Server has said they can sub the meat, but I/they should have clarified how much each add on item was.Cool that they add a living wage tax.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian, have to modify for veganDietary restrictions: Ask about dietary“

“Dharma's is amazing. I love their breakfast burritos - I ask for no beans and extra tofu, and it's amazing! Their kitcheree is also fantastic - very good if you are feeling under the weather. Lots of chopped up ginger for your immune system. I also love their American Saute and their Bo Thai, but I just wish they sauteed regular tofu instead of using the baked tofu that they use now. That's a serious bummer. And their miso honey with the American Saute rocks. Try it!“

“The only thing we actually buy there are cornmeal blueberry scones which are absolutely fabulous. The small mall of the northern side of Santa Cruz and generally the patrons are nice. Staff sees three fast and efficient and getting the awful long lines through service and paid “

“This is one of my favorite bagel places. If I could, I would give them an extra star for having a good selection of bagels still available at noon time on a Sunday. I had the cheddar pesto with veggie cream cheese. Great chewy consistency to the bagel. Also awesome is that they put a decent amount of cheddar and pesto on the bagel. The bagel was toasted and some of the cheddar was crispy. So good. Next time, though, I'm getting the chive cream cheese. It has a more distinct flavor. I look forward to my next bagel here.“

“Both the service and the ice cream flavors were so on point. It was such a warm day and hot inside this place, but the women working were SO friendly and kind and gave us samples of everything. The Turkish coffee is sublime, and the mint chip was really good too. My husband had scoops of both. I enjoyed a chocolate milkshake with the dark chocolate ice cream. Would definitely go back!“

“Real hit or miss depending on what you get. Sicilian Square - Solid pizza. Better that most chain pizza shops. Decent rise on the dough/crust. Acceptable for price. Thin Crust - Worth avoiding. On par with red baron or other store bought frozen pizzas. No rise or color on the crust/dough. Not sure if it's the oven or the proofing time but they just can't seem to make a crispy thin crust. Not at all worth price. Service - friendly and quick“

“Suda is located near 41st Ave off of Portola Drive. I often forget it is here until someone invites me to lunch and this is where we end up. I have been here for a baby shower as well; they have a private party room in the back if you want to have a more private space with your friends. They have great brunch and lunch. I have only been here once for dinner and it is just as good. I usually end up getting the burger or fish tacos which are both really good. The atmosphere is really cute; they have lots of plants which makes the space feel inviting and cozy. I love coming here. They also have plenty of parking in the parking lot. If you haven't been here yet, you should definitely give them a try.“
