“Stevie's Bar & Grill in San Jose isn't just a bar, it's a sanctuary for the soul and a paradise for beer enthusiasts. Each time I return to San Jose, Stevie's is my go-to spot, a reliable haven where the beer flows as freely as the good times. With a draft beer selection that's second to none, Stevie's is like a grand library of brews, each one a story waiting to be savored. The attentive staff elevates the experience, making sure your glass is never empty and your spirits are always high. The vibe here is electric yet welcoming, a perfect backdrop for the delectable snackable treats they serve. And if you're in a crunch for time, the adjacent laundromat turns a chore into a chance for relaxation – sip and savor while you spin and rinse! Stevie's is more than a bar; it's a clever twist on the traditional, a gem that makes San Jose shine a little brighter.“

“I absolutely love this place. It’s everything you want in a neighborhood spot and a perfect reflection of Willow Glen’s charm.

The wine list is extensive and thoughtfully curated, the food is consistently great with options that feel both elevated and approachable, and the staff brings such a fun, welcoming energy every time you walk in. It never feels pretentious, just genuinely enjoyable.

What really stands out is how it captures that quintessential Lincoln Avenue vibe. It’s the kind of place you can drop into for a casual glass of wine, stay for dinner, and end up lingering longer than you planned.

A true neighborhood favorite and one of the spots that makes Willow Glen feel special.“

“Good selection of craft beers, wine, and small plates. Food was tasty and service was great! Highly recommended!“

“Friendly place.. delicious pizza.. the crust was superb.. nice melty cheese.. tasty garlic bread & mango habanero wings..😋“

“Great food! My moms first time and couldn’t stop raving about the chicken adobo and the halo halo. It’s pricey but good. And the staff is very nice.“

“A go-to spot for me. I love IPAs and my taste buds are always suuper happy with the selection at this location! I love to sit out on the patio and get some sunshine and I like that they do a stamp card when you buy beer to go. It's a little perk that keeps me coming back! :) Everyone who works here is really nice

It's usually best for 4 or less people bc you'll get split up by seating. 2 people is kinda perfect. Note bc this got us and I always forget but no kids are allowed aha“

“Really delicious food yummy mimosas everyone very friendly I love this place...“

“This Korean BBQ restaurant truly exceeded my expectations! The quality of the beef is outstanding — easily comparable to the Hanwoo beef I’ve had in Korea. You can really taste how premium and fresh the meat is, especially when grilled.

The banchan (side dishes) selection is also very generous and well-prepared, offering great variety and authentic flavors. A special shoutout to their seasonings and sauces — the sauce selection is way more extensive than most Korean BBQ spots, and each one pairs perfectly with the meat.

Most importantly, this place is not just about BBQ. Their braised spicy pork ribs (the famous Korean spicy rib stew) are incredibly flavorful and deeply marinated, with the sauce soaking into every bite. It’s rich, spicy, and absolutely comforting.

Oh, BTW. Our sever is absolutely amazing, super helpful and very nice .

If you’re looking for authentic Korean flavors, high-quality meat, and amazing sauces all in one place, this spot is a must-try. Highly recommended!“

“Great food and always good service!“

“My oh my was I in for a surprise! The food was pretty good I got fish ceviche (I was hungover 😅) and it was very tasty and prepared right. My only hickup was there was something weird and stringy mixed in with it. I still ate most of it but thats one thing that tripped me out. Not enough to give them less than 4 starts tho. The staff was very friendly and all of my requests were answered. Looking forward to going back again.“

“Stopped by on a lazy Saturday early afternoon. Was pretty quiet for lunch (which I like). We sat at the bar and had a pizza and some beer. There was a pretty good selection of beers that were also uploaded to the untapped app.
I like the old school vibe of the place, very 'little Italy', bar was marble and the whole place was put together very well, lots of unique and quirky items about the place.
There is a larger seating area on the other side of the bar which also had a large selection of wines adorning the wall, that section had a more moody ambience. I preferred the bar area.
Bathrooms were super clean.
I really liked the pizza which felt like it came out almost instantly after we ordered. Staff were very efficient.
After eating and drinking we were pretty stuffed. Would stop by again.

Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly.“

“The beer that is brewed here is 10 out of 10. I come out of my way to go here when I'm looking for top notch craft beer. They also have a fantastic selection of local breweries on their taps, but I never order anything but the house beers here. THEY'RE THAT GOOD.“

“Nice and easy for the kids and all the people in the family“
