“Liked it. Good good, friendly customer service”

“Had lunch here today and it was PERFECT! I wish I could remember our server's name, he was attentive, quick, kind and really added to the experience. The food was delicious; I had the Hamburger salad (salad with perfectly seasoned burger patties with cheese, pickles, tomatoes, "melted onions") and my friend had a burger that comes with fries and salad and looked like it was right out of a magazine photo shoot. We both asked for small changes and we got cheerful assurance that it would be no problem and our orders were perfect. So many delicious looking things on the menu, can't wait to go back and try more!”

“Loved the beer and the outdoor Or seating in the front AND the back. Friendly and helpful staff. Sampler was great. And you can take home what you like! Beer only but there are great take out places around. Kid friendly and pet friendly as well. Clean bathroom too”

“Located on a strip mall, looking nondescript from the outside. Plenty of room inside. We came on a Monday morning, place being almost empty. Quick and friendly service, your common breakfast menu. Good coffee, fair prices. Recommended.”

“Great wine and great people”

“Great way to enjoy an afternoon for two on the patio.”

“Coming from someone who loves Japanese food and culture Ten Japan is it! The restaurant portrays that of what small restaurants in Japan are like and I love that about it. The ramen is really good as well as the sushi! Definitely one of my favorite places to eat in town and I would argue is the best sushi in town too!”

“Beautiful setting, chill music, an eclectic set of wines, all enjoyable. Cindy was a lovely host. We shared a tasting ($20) and ordered a glass of the grenache afterwards.”

“Todas las pizzas 🍕 están muy buenas arina del día resiente echa”

“Innovative combinations and great flavors make the food outstanding. I had the taco macho. Shrimp and octopus were surrounded by sour cream and avocado and a full Anaheim chile (mild). There was cheese too and the flour tortilla was crisped just right. Bring your appetite! One overflowing taco may be enough! Quesabirria only on weekends! Excellent service and great music, not to mention the busy decor, made this place fun!”

“Fresh and creative rolls with sweet , crunchy and spicy 🌶️ options galore . Teriyaki salmon 🍣 bowl for the kids was tasty and fresh , not too sweet , and generally good . Miso soup was tasty , and the cocktail I had was delicious. We will be back !”

“This wonderful Sushi and Japanese restaurant is the best in the entire South Bay! It has been there for over 20 years! Super fresh top-grade fish only, daily specials, the best appetizers, excellent very cold Beers on tap, many specialty drinks, and delicious sakes! Very reasonable prices too....
Big screen HD TVs everywhere.”

“We brought our family of seven for dinner and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. The food was delicious, well prepared, and full of flavor, every dish was something people at the table were genuinely happy with. It’s rare for a group this size to all be pleased, but this was one of those times. The atmosphere was comfortable and inviting, and the service was fantastic. attentive without being intrusive. It was a great dining experience!”

“This is a great winery, tucked away in Gilroy! The owner/winemaker is very knowledgeable about Rhone-style wines and has a degree from UC Davis. No big fruit bombs here! Very highly recommended.”

“Dear Kirigin Cellars Team, I wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you, not just for your consistently outstanding wines, but for the remarkable kindness and attentiveness of your staff. During a recent visit, I decided to ask /for just in case/—about a pair of sunglasses I lost nearly six months ago. These weren’t just any sunglasses; they were a gift from my wife, and I’d resigned myself to the idea that they were gone for good. To my amazement, I was kindly directed to your lost and found shelf, and there they were—just waiting. It was a small miracle made possible by the thoughtful care of your team. It’s moments like these that show how special Kirigin Cellars truly is. The quality of your wines is matched only by the character of the people who represent you. Thank you for being exceptional in every way. Warmest regards, Gen”

“This is my aunts favorite pizza place. I love that I can order her one and have it delivered with a personalized message. Living in Florida it can be hard to surprise her, and this works every time. Ya'll are a Gilroy staple, I remember having Straw Hat pizza as a kid and loving it. Keep up the great work. I look forward to ordering again. I F.L.Y. StrawHat Pizza Gilroy”

“Great venue.
Good selection of wines and craft beers/cider
Owners/servers were friendly.

Looking forward to making another visit”

“Best wines in the South Bay or possibly in California. The Chardonnay is crisp and deliciously flavorful. Then you get to the reds … wow.

The venue is in the middle of a redwood grove and has a Tahoe feel. The servers are friendly and the pours are generous. If you haven’t been here yet, do yourself a favor and stop for a tasting.”

“The food was cooked well but bland on the seasoning. Our server, Laurel, was a sweetheart and very kind. They had a band that played good music, and the atmosphere was great.”

“All of it. Food, excellent service. Nice mood.”

“This place represents Gilroy as well as any other place downtown. Between bartenders union and pour me taproom, the district theater should have dancers coming for years…”

“our 2 grandsons Loved it there! The young lady working there was very kind and helpful. Game area was clean n bathroom was were also”

“El Michoacano Restaurant truly impressed me with its generous portions and flavorful dishes. The seafood and meats are delicious, and the servings are big enough to satisfy even the hungriest appetite.

The shrimp burrito ahumado (wet) is seasoned to perfection, with shrimp cooked just right, tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The carne asada burrito is massive, and every bite fills your entire mouth. Fair warning: it requires plenty of jaw action, but it is absolutely worth it. Yum.

When I cannot decide what to order, the two item combo with a chicken enchilada and crunchy beef taco hits the spot every time. The beans taste just like Nana used to make: refried, creamy, perfectly salted, and seasoned with all the right spices. The rice is juicy, flavorful, and pairs perfectly with everything on the plate.

Overall, I left with that pleasantly plump and satisfied feeling after a great meal. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and perfect for relaxed and enjoyable conversation. A wonderful spot I am excited to return to to try their monster drink cocktail menu and more seafood.”

“Great pizza.”

“Got there about 11:40 am, and they were getting ready for the day. The manager came out and sat me at a table. He was very courteous and professional put a warm smile. The chickens and potato wedges was on the too cooked side but still good. The servers came several times to check on my experience and see if I needed anything which is a plus. Overall good place and clean dining area to eat. Very chill vibes.”

“pineapple chicken curry is my go to and it's delicious every single time. 5 ⭐ the staff is extremely friendly and ALL the food is extremely savory.”

“Delicious burgers and great service! The food was fresh, juicy, and full of flavor. The place was clean and had a nice, friendly atmosphere. I’ll definitely come back again!”

“Great coffee and atmosphere!”

“The best BBQ I’ve ever had. Might be the best kept secret in Norcal. Ribs were so tender, chicken was amazing. Garlic butter bread was the icing on the cake 👌🏽”

“They have this pretzel cookie and oh my word!! Is amazing!! The cookies are soft and sooo good. I have moved from Oklahoma and this place is so amazing!!”

“Leider war unser Besuch alles andere als angenehm. Wir hatten einen Platz im Schatten reserviert. Kamen an und bekamen erst mal eine Platz direkt in der Sonne zugeteilt. Wir dachten uns, naja, hilft ja nichts. Dann ging das Warten los. Wir saßen 25 Minuten in der prallen Sonne, ohne auch nur beachtet zu werden. Nach uns kommende Gäste wieder bedient, wir hatten weder Schatten noch Getränke. Irgendwann wurde ein Schattenplatz frei. Den schnappten wir uns dann. Und nach insgesamt 35 Minuten konnten wir auch endlich unsere Getränke bestellen (kurzzeitig waren wir schon am Überlegen lieber zum goldenen M zu fahren) Wir bestellten als zeitgleich Getränke und essen. Essen kam dann auch. Nur leider hatten wir kein Bedteck. Also wieder warten. Nach dem wir leicht angsäuert waren, genossen wir aber das leckere Essen. Die restlichen Pizza gaben wir der Bedienung zum einpacken. Wir bezahlten und warteten wieder - auf die eingepackte Pizza. Irgendwann ging mein Mann nach oben zur Theke, wo die Bedienung stand und Besteck abtrocknen. Auf unsere Frage wo denn die Pizza sei, "oh die hab ich ganz vergessen, da drüben steht sie" Naja ist halt alles andre als gut gelaufen an diesem Tag. Aber das Essen war wirklich lecker.”

“Excellent breakfast 🍳 the Greek omelet”

“I would like more icing on the donuts. Otherwise, very good!
The breakfast sandwich had a slight after taste, maybe old oil? I would have liked some kind of sauce on it, too. Otherwise, very good also!”

“Hands down; our favorite burger place in Gilroy!..... Hope they decide to get Doordash or Uber eats as an option soon'!”

“Killer pulled pork sandwich. First time visitor. Definitely not the last time.”

“Great staff, beer and location”

“This place is amazing! The restaurant itself is very cute and welcoming. The staff are friendly and helpful. I had the chicken noodle soup- truthfully the best I’ve ever had. The chicken was so tender and it was delicious. The chicken pesto sandwich was also great. The new tiramisu latte was recommended and is 10/10! I will be coming back here. And the music is also great! New favorite spot.”

“Such a wonderful place! Great to have them here! Love the falafel plate and many choices. Also have many cooking supplies for the home chef, so great! Don’t miss this nice store and proprietor.”

“I have loved everything I’ve ever had from this place. The quality of the food is great. The people are great too!”

“VERY GOOD PLACE TO EAT YOUR FAVORITE DISH. THE SERVERS ARE SO SWEETY. THEY ALWAYS GREET YOU AT THE DOOR TREAT YOU LIKE FAMILY. NICE AND CLEAN RESTROOMS. PLENTY OF DISHES TO CHOOSE FROM. GREAT MEXICAN FOOD AND AMERICAN. I RECOMMEND TO ALL. COME IN AND ENJOY .”

“I forgot to do my review a long time ago lol ten out of ten and I would give them 100 out of 100 customer service is the best the ladies and gentleman at the bar always make me my favorite a rum punch it’s so damn good but the seafood broil is my favorite I always get oysters and shrimp with there house sauce I love this place but the employees here are amazing this place is under rated lol but that’s fine it’s my little secret place 😂😂😂😂😂”

“I luv their all their food and beer good prices and great good we always clean our plate off completely recommendation”

“Excelente servicio de las meseras”

“A nice variety of beer, cider, seltzer, kombachia , and even wine. Great atmosphere. Fun games. Friendly and helpful staff.”

“The food was good, but nothing to brag about, just what you would expect from a slightly higher priced fast food place. The teller was very friendly, though, and went out of her way to make you feel comfortable.”

“I really liked this place. My breakfast bagel was simple but had good flavor. The employees were pleasant and the service was great. This would be my bagel spot if I was a local.”

“This is an absolute must-visit restaurant 🍽️ for all foodies 😋, we had an amazing experience with authentic good flavors for all the vegetarian dishes we tried! 👍😊”

“Great beer choices and friendly staff. From the pictures, it looks like it might be more popular on weekends. We came on a weeknight, and there were not as many people. We found the furniture to be uncomfortable (metal high chairs with no back, and an unusually tall table with regular wooden chairs around it- it was awkward to sit at). It felt pretty bare, as far as decor and ambiance go.

But we DID like the beer! (They are on the Untappd app!)

You can walk down the street 1 block to Promised Land Brewery from here. That one has equally good beers and more ambiance (& comfortable chairs), but is much smaller.”

“We LOVE Gilroy donut house! Their donuts are big and light and there’s always a good selection when we go in the mornings. It’s very 80’s and they only accept cash but it’s part of their charm!”

“On our way back from San jose for medical reasons we always stop for breakfast and our way back home to hollister we decided to look for something different. We saw the reviews and decided. Why not
We weren't to sure as we drove up, the parking was plentiful and easy to access with plenty of spaces. Walked inside and you can tell that its a newer restaurant .
Very clean and open. Restroom very clean and serviced. Ordered bacon and eggs with a side of biscuits and gravy. Wife had very berry waffles. . The food was hot and very well presented. The gravy was fantastic and the biscuits where fresh. Eggs cooked to perfection and bacon was perfect. Wife loved the waffles and the service was exceptional.
Will definitely be going back. And won't wait
For a doctors appointment.”

“Great place good food love it!!!!”

“Really tasty enchiladas, sopes, and chili rellanos. The salsa, chips and frijoles refritos were so good. Great California flavors.”

“Great delicious tasting food. Have eaten here a few times now trying different main dishes, appetizers and sides; they have all been delicious. The staff are friendly and helpful and were even kind enough to check what level of heat in the spices we preferred in our curry. We tried both the mango and malai Crown Kulfi ice creams today which were full of flavor and creamy. There’s lots of dishes to choose from including desserts. Highly recommend.”

“This place is a secret. If i could give it 10 stars i would. The service really sets it apart. Food is incredible. The people that run this long standing family establishment deserve statewide recognition”

“Food was amazing. I got the Texas smash 10/10. The fries were great and there’s a home sauce that they brought that went so well with it. Vibe is also fun. Will definitely be our spot to stop at when visiting gilroy!”

“Place is clean and well maintained. Staff is friendly. Promptly greeted. I have loved Pizza My Heart since childhood. We would always get a slice when i would go to Capitola with my mom. The Watsonville Apple is my absolute favorite. The tartness of the green apple is such a great compliment to the savory of the other ingredients. So good. Some are a bit hesitant when thinking about apple on a pizza but those i have introduced to it, have always really liked it.”

“fast and friendly service. I'm definitely coming back again.”

“Finest chimichanga in this universe! 👌👅🌈”

“I could not believe how delicious my sandwich was. So tasty and spicy. You will be glad you ate there. I will do so regularly. Dan - Day Rd Gilroy”

“- Unique rolled ice cream - Delicious flavors - Best experience for kids and adults - Employees makes sure we left satisfied - Perfect to share with friends and/or family Will be returning! 🌀🍨🍦😍😋”

“We had breakfast there, the omelets were really good, delicious home fries, fruit, and choice of pancakes or French toast instead of toast. Staff was exceptional and friendly.”

“Went to the San Jose location. Their Pozole was 🔥. They had hella takeout orders. The San Jose had beautiful art. I look forward to going again.”

“Went for the lunch buffet.
All you can eat pizza and salad and wasn't disappointed. They served up a great variety of different pizzas.

The garlic knots were amazing, and the salad bar was very nice.”

“take a wide right turn to safely get in to their yard. otherwise, you will have an extra load of a light post. checking in was friendly, the lady at the desk she’s really cool and helpful. she even gave me some flat bread to take with me. a good place to get loaded.”

“I typically dine here whn I visit my mom. The enchiladas are amazing. I found the meat to be too chewy in the Chile Colorado. I do miss the salsa bar that was available pre-covid! The service is always great!!”

“This is my go to for parties each year for my Halloween Bunco. Yesterday didn’t disappoint as the food was warm, delicious, & everyone enjoyed everything. My personal favorite is the Chinese Chicken Salad.”

“Great local small restaurant, food served is really tasty and the portions were large. When in the SF area we will be frequenting this awesome hole in the wall place.”

“Had a great experience shopping at Mamy’s very clean fruit stand today. Got all fresh fruits and the owners are very polite and friendly. Can’t wait to try the pink watermelon”

“My favorite Jamba Juice! The staff is super friendly and always remembers my order before I can even tell them! The bananas are always ripe (unlike some other locations) and they don't skimp out on the peanut butter. Best peanut butter moo'd of any Jamba I've been to.”

“Hot fresh and quick

Parking: Enough room for RVs and semi trucks

Kid-friendliness: Jep

Wheelchair accessibility: Two spots in a ramp”

“We spent the afternoon doing some wine tasting and relaxing under a gazebo. Such amazing tasting wine ( could be because it’s still processed in the traditional Italian way) and learning about the history of the family. ❤️❤️❤️ this place.”

“Food is fantastic. Can't go wrong there. It is always busy, but can't complain because food is wort it. Itis more on the expensive side and be prepared to pay for everything separately, that's why O gave the 4 star instead of 5. Everything has an added charge apart from the expensive the food already is.”

“Amazing Venezuelan food made by great people. Highly recommend you try it! Her food is delicious!”

“Yay! Not Starbucks. The coffee beans are roasted in house. As such, the flavor is so gooood! They bake most of the pastries that they sell in-house. Service is knowledgeable and friendly (my husband was coughing pretty hard for awhile and a barista brought him water- Thank you, Eva!) If we support our downtown, our downtown will thrive!”

“Nothing but the best of everything quantity ,atmosphere ,friendliness , quality , everything but the kitchen sink ..oh wait they do have the kitchen sink on the menu!! Love these guys”

“Always greeted w/ a smile and a friendly good morning! Service is always great and the food is always on point!”

“Staff is soo friendly. I shop at Goodwill every week and usually stop by at Starbucks inside of Safeway. The coffee is always made exactly the way I like it. Brown Sugar Oatmilk is my new favorite choice 1/2 caf with some splenda ???”

“Three of us, family members, were looking for lunch, after Outlet Mall shopping. Found this. We only ordered Dim Sum, multiple dishes. All good, hot, fresh... served as they got done. Good service. Can't comment on the larger menu, but a winner, for Dim Sum.”

“First time at this place for a quick lunch and having live in Gilroy. I ordered #1 Pho and the broth was good and lots of meat. Very good Pho place especially having lived in San Jose.

Bathroom and restaurant is clean. I recommend this place and I will be back.”

“Great place good food love it!!!!”

“Great place for fresh, tasty and quick Poki. Always hits the spot!”

“excelentes platillos excelentes servicios y excelentes precios”

“Nice local bar, selection is great, Heather is the best bartender in town. Will be back every time I am in town. I didn't order food but those that did raved, especially the prawns.”

“LOVED THE HAPPY HOUR ❤️ SO GOOD 😊”

“yesterday was my first time in there and everything was ok and i wait only 2 minutes.😊”

“The food here was great! Teriyaki style kabobs & white rice was delicious,rice cooked all the way through and not soggy,chickenwas tender and cooked well. Good amount of condiment choices,no sodas at this location so you have to get elsewhere nearby. The only complaints would be there's no shade to wait in line and the condiments were directly in the sun and the soy sauce foil type packets were burning hot!It was a lot of food two kabobs with rice or just two kabobs by themselves. We probably could've split one rice and kabobs for my husband and I. I think this place is the best quality and price for amount of food. The young men working there were all friendly and kind.”

“Always consistent experience from restaurant to restaurant. The new pretzel sandwich is way better than the standard buns. Workers are always very kind and restaurants are clean”

“Take a break here from your shopping and have a snack and nice refreshing Boba beverage. We've tried almost everything on their menu and it's all been delicious!”

“Delicioso, economico recomendado”

“good food ,nice place and friendly staff..”

“My favorite every time!!!”

“This is one of our favorite places to go for all meals. Staff is friendly and food is great. There is sometimes a wait but well worth it. It has been a while since we last went and everything was the same.”

“Nice bread box. We were passing through on our trip and it was very spacious and comfortable. Excellent parking and the food is always the best. I always recommend Panera.”

“The passionfruit with lychee jelly was so good, calamari was very good as well... will go back for sure 😊”

“My go to place before I go to work. Sometimes they're open at the crack adon, and they close late best pan dulce.
Their champorado is amazing... They make various burritos and breakfast tortas.. Can't go wrong stopping into this place. I stopped by there today to pick up some pan dulce today..yummy”

“I love my sandwich with extra Goo. and chips, side of pickles”

“The staff were very nice and helpful. I took advantage of their Bogo offer through their app. I had them make make 1 tuna sandwich roasted as I was going to eat it that day. Then the other with all the fixings, but put the tuna in a soup cup so i can put it together the next day. This way the sandwich would not be all soggy and falling apart. They had no problem with doing that.”

“My wife and I really like this place. We usually just get drinks, but they have good food too. My wife always gets the Gilroy Sunrise and I get a milk tea or something similar. Really good on a hot day.”

“Stopped by Carl’s Jr. last night because I was starving for a burger. I ordered a Famous Star with cheese, no onion, single patty—but they gave me a double instead. It was fine, just too much meat for me, so I didn’t end up finishing half of it. The fries tasted like they had been cold and then re-dipped in oil, so they were a little greasy. I didn’t complain since I was exhausted and just wanted to eat.

This location is right off the freeway with tons of parking, even for big rigs and larger vehicles. There’s a truck plaza with diesel fueling stations nearby, so it’s definitely a spot geared for truck drivers and heavy equipment. Overall, it was an okay stop convenient and plenty of space, but nothing special.”

“Their Philly steak sandwiches are the bomb!! Love them!!🌻❤”

“awesome staff and great food. They are supporting the community by giving back to the families from the tragic shooting in Gilroy.”

“.............. .. . .....”

“Always busy especially during lunch hours but they are extremely fast and friendly! Love all the smiley faces as soon as you come in. I like the girls preeti, and Marisela and some other girl who’s name i didn’t get. Clean spot, great location, sandwich very good, I really enjoyed eating the sandwich.”

“Love the food but no refills”

“Friendly service. Good coffee!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ 4.5/5 — Blazin Bagels is a Must-Visit

Blazin Bagels delivers muy bieno customer service. The elder lady with grey hair is an absolute star. She is hustling, bustling, and still finding time to be incredibly friendly and kind. You can feel the care that goes into every bagel she touches. The Filipino lady is awesome too.

The bagels themselves are perfection: slightly crunchy on the outside, soft like cotton on the inside. I ordered two everything breakfast bagels: one Monterey with eggs, bacon, sprouts, cheddar, and avocado, and one with just cream cheese.

The Monterey was amazing on my teeth and tongue. I like the crunch with every bite with the softness of the 🥑 and the light kick of the Tapatio.

* Bacon salty, crunchy, and delicious
* Avocado creamy with great texture
* Every bite elevated with a little Tapatio, must try it and hhighly recommend

And that cream cheese bagel? They do not hold back. Thick, creamy cream cheese overflowing onto my nose, fingers, and table. No complaints here.

Perfectly baked bagels, generous portions, and genuinely kind service.

I recommend. I am absolutely coming back”

“Tried Pho Thanh An recently and honestly, their pho really hits the spot. The broth is tasty and full of flavor, and they definitely don’t skimp on the meat, which I appreciate so much. It’s the kind of bowl that feels comforting from the first sip.

Their Thai iced tea, though, wasn’t quite as impressive. You can definitely taste the powder mix they used instead of a freshly brewed version. The sweetness is blended nicely, but the overall flavor just doesn’t have that authentic richness.

Overall, great place if you’re craving solid, satisfying pho.”

“The food I had was pretty good, they do have a lot of fried food.Which I try not to eat. Their sushi rolls were pretty good. My son and grandchildren definitely enjoyed the food”
