Everything is absolutely delicious.The service was excellent. You can tell they care about the food they serve you. They prepare the food as the order comes in and the wait is well worth.”

Los Gatos Cafe 340 N Santa Cruz Ave, Los Gatos Cafe • $$
340 N Santa Cruz Ave, Los Gatos

“Solid spot for brunch in Los Gatos! They have both indoor and outdoor patio dining. The outdoor dining area has heat lamps, and they'll open up the awning when it gets too sunny out! I got the Crab Souffle Omelette, and I really enjoyed it! The omelette itself was huge! I was impressed with just how fluffy it was--way better than an ordinary omelette! The Crab Souffle omelette is filled with crab, avocado, tomato, mushrooms, and topped with hollandaise sauce. All of the souffle omelettes come with a bakery item and herb potatoes and grits. I love that you can get a specialty bakery item like their carrot walnut bread or raspberry coffee cake in addition to their selection of breads/English muffin/bagel. You can even add their cinnamon roll, but it will cost you an extra $5. I recommend getting their carrot walnut bread! It's tasty--a little savory and a little sweet--with a great combination of textures. I tried some of the raspberry coffee cake but did not like it as much. I would also recommend getting the herb potatoes instead of the grits. The herb potatoes were quite yummy! We were expecting the grits to be like cheesy grits or shrimp and grits (something with flavor) but these ended up just being plain grits. So unless that's what you're looking for, go with the potatoes! Service is pretty fast and efficient. Parking is street parking or park in one of the nearby public lots. There are a bunch of these in Downtown Los Gatos, so I've never had to walk too far!”

Aldo's Ristorante & Bar 14109 S Winchester Blvd, Los Gatos Italian • $$
14109 S Winchester Blvd, Los Gatos

“This is the real Italian restaurant in all of San Francisco Bay, very good service by professional and Italian waiters, an excellent menu of real excellent Italian cuisine, a real treat and Italian music.The owner himself came to our table several times, which was very warm and friendly, maintaining a pleasant conversation.It really is a quality restaurant that I highly recommend, as a couple, with family or for an event, I will come back very often.The only point to raise is that it is very noisy, the room has canteen acoustics and lacks warmth on the other side because it is very difficult to hear each other.It's a shame that the enclosed terrace was closed, I think it's more welcoming for a couple's dinner. Well done Aldo, it's excellent.”

“What a place! I had never played bocce before but now I’m hooked. The games were fun, the people teaching us were great, and we had a blast.The food was also amazing. We had some pasta, pizza, salad, and desserts for our work event and everything was spot on. The desserts are absolutely the star of the show. I loved the tiramisu but you can’t go wrong with any of their options.I can’t recommend this place enough for work events or just a casual meal (with a highly addictive game to boot).Vegetarian options: We had vegetarian pasta and pizza options available to us.Dietary restrictions: We found a gluten free pizza option.Parking: The parking lot specifically for this place is limited, especially for the work event we put on. There is street parking and other nearby lots, so plan accordingly.”

Namaste Indian Cuisine 35 E Main St, Los Gatos Indian • $$
35 E Main St, Los Gatos

“By far my favorite Indian cuisine restaurant to the point where I won’t go anywhere else if I want this type of food. Service is always good, food even better. I have been going here going on 3 years and I have never had a bad experience with dine in or takeout. Speaking of takeout I feel it’s worth mentioning that their takeout food travels well and tastes the same at home than it does in restaurant. 10/10 12/10 15/10 love it. Only issue I would see is maybe parking, but I’ve always found a spot somewhere.”

Chez Philippe 34 N Santa Cruz Ave, Los Gatos French • $$$
34 N Santa Cruz Ave, Los Gatos

“If you're looking to travel into the streets of Paris for a brunch / lunch / dinner for a date night or just to make you happy, you can now find that in the beautiful Santa Cruz Ave of Los Gatos. Chez Philippe picks you up from a great neighborhood and instantly sends you into a classy, French storybook that is packed with homeliness, and none of the haughty chin up.We visited CP (Chez Philippe) on a slightly drizzly brunch hour on a Sunday. We were in Los Gatos for their Sunday Street Market but the drizzle made us choose an early lunch. 4.6 stars on Google is no easy feat so we were excited to know there were seats availalable.Unlike typical French restaurants where everything is snooty, if not unnecessarily greasy, we were welcomed as if we were visiting a distant relative in their beautiful cottage, somehow in the outskirts of Paris. The huge windows let in the wet sunlight with window-side tables occupied by a loving elderly couple... a perfect scene that sets the mood. Chef Philippe (I would think he is) seems he's moved over from France and truly gave us a loving welcome and intro to the restaurant. The interior is literally a picture book with various corners all carrying their unique stories but all strung together with the air they share.By the time we were ordering, our mood was already soft and I was sipping on delicious coffee. We went with the Onion Soup and the Escargot, as well as sweet crepes, etc. The onion soup inches near perfection in terms of the depth of taste and the wholesomeness it provides. The star of the show was the escargot though. I do not know what black magic they used to create the garlic butter sauce the escargots sat in but it was pure heaven. Just dipping fresh baguette into the escarbot pits and chewing on it simply made my day. At that point, my review was already decided. It was one of the happiest and tastiest experiences I've had in the Bay Area in a while. And mind you, I wasn't even that hungry.The mussels were fabulous with distinct white wine sauce. The French Fries were clearly made with love. And the strawberry crepes, again, were quite good, although you really can't go too wrong here.Chez Philippe truly is a gem in Los Gatos. I believe it is relatively new but I don't come here too often. Either way, what a wonderful restaurant. And we'll absolutely be back.Parking: Find public parking in Los Gatos downtown. There are few lots parallel to Santa Cruz Ave, as well as if you get lucky, you can street park on Santa Cruz itself.”

Sidecar Modern Tavern 25 E Main St, Los Gatos New American • $$$
25 E Main St, Los Gatos

“This place was good and I mean like really good food. I'm giving it a four because I think it would be more appropriate to call it a "lounge", not a tavern. Everything is highfalutin, which accompanies the prices. A tavern should be cheap, mainly serve beer, and probably have a pub food list. Again, this fits the stereotypical image that wants to be painted in this part of CA.”

“Love this gem of a place I just discovered. Very good Agedashi Tofu. If you have seen my reviews before you will realize that’s one of the ways I judge quality. Second, the Snapper nigiri was incredible. Best I have ever had. Tender, flavorful perfect. They were out of Hirame so I will have to return. And finally the Blue Fin Toro was incredible. It was my last bite and I know I will be back for more of everything. Very local and superb no-frills ambiance, unassuming and priced well. Foodies converge!”

“My little family loves it here! I love that it's somewhat family friendly. I would only recommend if kids are well- behaved, it's right by a parking lot so there's not really space to run around. That said, we love coming here after a family hike. We grab a flight of tasters to share and some snacks. Our kids love the pretzel and we do too. We're not actually huge beer drinkers but like it every now and then so the tasters are perfect. We love the outdoor seating and the loaner games too. Service is prompt and friendly.”
