“Exquisitely exceptional. Denise and her team have carefully curated a wonderfully enchanting Parisian experience from the ambiance to the decor--snacks & caviar..a truly uplifting experience that Los Gatos desperately needed. Well done, can't wait to be back.“
“Just stopped in as we were looking at properties and needed to kill sometime. Greta food and good beer selection from the small first sample. The lobster bisque was fantastic and they have pliny the elder on tap. Also, the person running the shop was very friendly and helpful. For the atmosphere, it might not be for everyone, but it is the right feel for me, it is a place for the area and has the laid back feeling I would expect of a mountain community. Will be becoming a regular.“
“our server, Chris was amazing. We were one of the last tables which can feel rushed, but he made us feel at home and very special and it was one of the best experiences in a long time. amazing service. we are coming back because of Chris. by the way, we did not know Chris before tonight, so this is not a biased review.aside from the service, the food was very delicious and exceeded our expectations“
“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.“
“Stumbled upon and had lunch at this little gem in Los Gatos. The crew and chef listened to my food mood and suggested and prepared a delicious and beautiful artichoke, caper flatbread, paired with the pickle plate! OMG super yummy!!Their complimentary olive oil and vinegar tasting room and wine bar, where they made me a sparkly virgin cocktail, is all about friendly, cozy, good vibes.Very chill and comfortable and I hear they also host private parties! I will definitely be back to sit out back! Oh yeah, and they’re also remote-work friendly, offering WiFi!Taking home a couple bottles, some guava jam and a full and happy belly!! Winning!!!“
“My friend hosted her bridal shower here, and the service was impeccable. They decorated the room and provided a delicious motley of drinks and food. The waitresses would also be helpful and consistently check in throughout the event. I got the iced latte, lychee mimosa, stuffed mushrooms, margarita pizza, italian wedding soup, the tagliatelle with truffle cream sauce, and a nonalcoholic frosé. Everything (esp the stuffed mushrooms and tagliatelle) was fantastic.“
“Peaceful and calm during COVID-19. Reservations only. Friend took me out to wine bar and ordered two charcuterie plates: smoked salmon and cheese plates. It is a cute date/ friend gathering place if you like to talk a lot without the hustle and bustle of the city.“
“The food was wonderful! Taylor (I believe that was his name) was the best server and knew so much about the wine list. He said he created the wine list and his recommendations were right on point. If you are in Los Gatos-, don’t pass this one up!“
“Stopped in for a glass of wine and a quick bite yesterday. The service was fantastic and everyone was really friendly and very informative about the wines they serve. We ordered the stuffed mushrooms and trio of bruschetta. Everything was really good! They have bands that play couple nights a week so it can be a bit loud inside but it's a festive environment. They are more on the pricey side with glasses of wine costing anywhere from 22.00 to 50.00! It might be better to just a bottle at that price!“
“Wow, what an incredible find! I've been living in Los Gatos for quite some time now and thought I'd tried every restaurant in town, but somehow I missed this gem!The service here is top-notch—fast, efficient, and super friendly. And let's talk about the food—absolutely fantastic! We kicked things off with the antipasto platter, which was loaded with deliciousness. Then we dove into two pasta dishes: the classic bolognese and the cheesy truffle pasta. Both were out of this world!And don't even get me started on dessert. We indulged in the americano and tiramisu, and let me tell you, that tiramisu was hands down the best I've ever had. Bravo to the chef!I'll definitely be coming back for more!“
“What a super cute and quaint place to indulge in good food and good wine! We met the owner, Michele, when he was originally at Tasting House down the street. When you talk to him, his passion for wine totally shines through. We first came a few weeks after the establishment opened, but recently came back to have a full dinner, which I didn’t even know they served until I looked online. OMG, everything was good. And Michele’s recommendations are always so good.I have a feeling when the weather shapes up and it’s warm out, this place is going to be booked solid. It’s a small place but offers a few tables outdoors, weather permitting.Love love love this place and will definitely be back again!Note, there’s lots of parking around the area (on the street and random lots).Also, the photo of the meatballs, there were actually 8-10 but I took photos after we ate more than half.“
