I love the new variety of flavors every week and how they’re so unique and different than the generic cookies you buy in the grocery store. The price isn’t too bad either! For a box of 6 cookies it’s $22 but the cookies are HUGE. I can never finish one by myself so I leave them to the rest of my family. Also pro tip download the crumble app so you can earn free rewards. 100 points equals to $10 you can use towards the cookies.”

I have been wanting to stop by for ages, and I stopped in this afternoon after dropping off my kid for music classes across the street. Sadly just ate lunch so no need for pastries but I can always do an iced latte! They serve Chromatic brand coffee and you can get it with a variety of syrup flavors: caramel, hazelnut, raspberry, etc. $6 including tip. Honestly, it is a STEAL for handcrafted coffee compared to Starbucks - and it supports the neighborhood! We’ll be back for pastries, Preligen!”

I only come here for my Grilled Pork with rice noodle and fresh herbs. Their special Fish Sauce is what makes this dish so good. Together with the grilled pork aroma, the sauce brings out a deep and sweet harmony in every bite.

Goodtime Bar 30 Fountain Alley #160, San Jose Wine Bar • $$

“Nestled in the heart of San Jose, I can truly say I have found my favorite restaurant. For any newcomers to the city or locals looking for a new go-to bar, Goodtime Bar is the spot. It goes without notice the effort this restaurant makes to create a sense of community: DJ nights, guest chefs, wine club, run club – all specially designed to bring people together. I never write reviews, but this jewel deserves all the accolades. Beyond the electric atmosphere, the vast natural wine selections paired with novel cuisine make every visit an experience that elevates my palate. The carefully crafted dishes show the detail chef Alex gives to every order. Diverse ingredients embrace a fusion of cultures, with familiar dishes like Caesar salad (Endive Caesar @ Goodtime), pasta (Bucatini @ Goodtime), and shrimp tacos (Tacos Dorados @ Goodtime) delivering a magical explosion of flavors. I tend to find myself methodically portioning out my meal - not wanting to reach that one last bite from my plate. With a rotating menu, every visit is an exploration of new tastes and has cemented me as a regular.

P.S. The Bucatini is my favorite! =]”

Acopio Restaurant 399 S 24th St, San Jose New Mexican Cuisine • $$

“TBH I was hesitant at first to eat at Acopia. As a vegan, most Mexican restaurants do not usually have options for me. Their menu is somewhat minimal and limited, so entered with few expectations or hopes that I could order anything more than a salad. However, I was pleasantly surprised! The owner came to our table and was most accommodating. I ordered a succulent nopales salad, street corn and some delicious blue corn sopes de calabasita (zucchini and flower). It was all quite tasty and I was even more surprised when she brought out some vegan mayo AND vegan cheese to top off my food with more flavor. The atmosphere is very modern and simply styled, mirroring their “chic” food menu. I found the food delicious though a bit on the bland side, but was grateful that they came through for me and my vegan diet. I left sated and happy that I could fully participate in the meal alongside my meat-eating friends. The owner was very thoughtful and really went out of her way to make sure I had plenty of choices to order. Although it was a bit pricey, I will definitely go back again. The modern ambiance, the attentive service and the fancy yet rustic food combined to make a lovely evening meal.”

“We really enjoyed our first trip to this charming small eatery in downtown San Jose. Tucked away on Post north of First St., without obvious signage, The Club can be hard to find, but is worth the search. The craft cocktails were creative, interesting, and delicious. The Kale salad was a large serving, with a tasty house made dressing and a variety of fresh ingredients. The Short Ribs are were tender moist and delicious, served over a small serving of parsnip purée. My seafood pasta was deliciously sauced with generous portions of shrimp and salmon, though a little more pasta would have been nice. Crème Brûlée was delicious. Prices are moderate, appropriate for quality. Service was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful,. Decor is minimalist but tasteful. Overall very enjoyable, a good time was has by all!”

“Nestled in the heart of San Jose, I can truly say I have found my favorite restaurant. For any newcomers to the city or locals looking for a new go-to bar, Goodtime Bar is the spot. It goes without notice the effort this restaurant makes to create a sense of community: DJ nights, guest chefs, wine club, run club – all specially designed to bring people together. I never write reviews, but this jewel deserves all the accolades. Beyond the electric atmosphere, the vast natural wine selections paired with novel cuisine make every visit an experience that elevates my palate. The carefully crafted dishes show the detail chef Alex gives to every order. Diverse ingredients embrace a fusion of cultures, with familiar dishes like Caesar salad (Endive Caesar @ Goodtime), pasta (Bucatini @ Goodtime), and shrimp tacos (Tacos Dorados @ Goodtime) delivering a magical explosion of flavors. I tend to find myself methodically portioning out my meal - not wanting to reach that one last bite from my plate. With a rotating menu, every visit is an exploration of new tastes and has cemented me as a regular.

P.S. The Bucatini is my favorite! =]”

Pizza Guys 4605 Cherry Ave, San Jose Pizza • $

“This place is great! I'm a value guy and this place exceeded my expectations. Admittedly, I thought I was going to have to spend more for a decent pizza. Turns out, if you place an order in person or over the phone, they will give you a discount on the pizza or wings you order. They will also give you a free 2 liter of soda if you spend over $30 on a pizza or pizzas. I also noticed that if you get a slice of cheesecake, you can get a discount on that too!

Go to Pizza Guys if you want a good pizza, but, be sure to spend at least $30 to get a free 2 Liter of soda.”

Acopio Restaurant 399 S 24th St, San Jose New Mexican Cuisine • $$

“TBH I was hesitant at first to eat at Acopia. As a vegan, most Mexican restaurants do not usually have options for me. Their menu is somewhat minimal and limited, so entered with few expectations or hopes that I could order anything more than a salad. However, I was pleasantly surprised! The owner came to our table and was most accommodating. I ordered a succulent nopales salad, street corn and some delicious blue corn sopes de calabasita (zucchini and flower). It was all quite tasty and I was even more surprised when she brought out some vegan mayo AND vegan cheese to top off my food with more flavor. The atmosphere is very modern and simply styled, mirroring their “chic” food menu. I found the food delicious though a bit on the bland side, but was grateful that they came through for me and my vegan diet. I left sated and happy that I could fully participate in the meal alongside my meat-eating friends. The owner was very thoughtful and really went out of her way to make sure I had plenty of choices to order. Although it was a bit pricey, I will definitely go back again. The modern ambiance, the attentive service and the fancy yet rustic food combined to make a lovely evening meal.”

Aria's Sweet Treats 1175 Redmond Ave, San Jose Bakery • $$$$

“I ordered a 4 tier cake for my wedding. I asked if they would be able to do the old vintage cake designs. I was told yes. I sent several detailed emails and pictures of what I wanted. The cake was NOTHING close in design, outside of 4 levels, nothing else looked like the pictures. Only one of the colors, only a couple flowers. Then, 1 hour into the reception the cake fell over. I never even got to cut my 4 tiered cake! When I brought it up after, she blamed the heat. There was air conditioning in the venue! She offered to redo it for pictures. I agreed then never heard from her. I contacted her multiple times and I just today get an email from her saying she can't do that after all. I lost money, had a mediocre cake that looked nothing like the inspo picture I sent, and had my cake fall over and barely salvaged enough for the guests. This is a horrible business who doesn't care about making a cake for something as important as a wedding. My dream cake was ruined. I should've gone with someone else. What a horrible bakery. Liars and unprofessional. If you don't know how to do vintage designs don't sat you do! And do not offer a remake if you don't mean it!

House of Bagels 505 E San Carlos St, San Jose Bagels • $

“Reached House of Bagels around 10 AM on a weekend, and there was already a huge line outside the door—which definitely raised my expectations. Even though the line was long, it moved at a surprisingly good pace, and we were able to place our order in about 20 minutes.

We ordered:

* Two sausage, egg & cheese jalapeño bagel sandwiches
* One with tomato basil cream cheese
* One with jalapeño cream cheese
* A Double Dutch Mocha
* And a chai tea

The service was impressively fast because we got our entire order in less than 5 minutes.

They have a few outdoor tables, but since it was drizzling, we decided to take the food home instead.

The bagels themselves were soft, fresh, and nicely made. I personally wished the jalapeño bagel had a bit more jalapeño flavor compared to similar bagels I’ve had elsewhere, but overall the sandwich was very satisfying. The sausage, egg, and bagel ratio was spot on, making every bite balanced and filling.

The tomato basil cream cheese was absolutely delicious and added great flavor to the sandwich. The jalapeño cream cheese, however, was a bit disappointing and lacked the kick I expected.

Special mention for the Double Dutch Mocha—easily a 100/10. Rich, smooth, and honestly one of the best drinks from the meal. On the other hand, the chai tea was disappointing and tasted more like warm milk with a little cinnamon rather than actual chai.

Overall, it was still a really good experience, and I’d definitely go back to try more items from their menu.”

Then found out afterwards that they substituted my xu mai for a piece of spam!! Oh well. Still yummy. Gave them one less star for the inconsistency. You order at the counter and they give you buzzer to come back in 10-15 mins to pick up.

Mar Y Sol Taqueria 1179 E Santa Clara St, San Jose Mexican • $$

“I stopped by Mar Y Sol Taqueria on East Santa Clara Street and had to try two of their popular items — the Shrimp Tacos and the Super Burrito. Both were fantastic.
The Shrimp Tacos (on fresh handmade tortillas) were next-level. Juicy grilled shrimp with perfect seasoning — light spice, not overwhelming — piled with crunchy coleslaw, pico de gallo, avocado, and a touch of Monterey cheese. The tortillas were soft and homemade, and everything tasted super fresh. Around $13.50 for three and they disappeared fast. Easily some of the best shrimp tacos I’ve had lately.
The Super Burrito was a beast. I went with carne asada and it was stuffed with rice, beans, cheese, guac, pico, and more — huge portion, super flavorful, and everything was juicy and well-seasoned. The tortilla held up without falling apart, and it felt like a full meal on its own. At about $16.50 it was solid value.
If you’re craving solid, no-frills Mexican food done right with fresh ingredients, these two dishes alone make the stop worth it.”

“There is usually a split of either good food or good drinks when it comes to happy hour, this place comes close to both good. We were seated promptly at a booth since it was after 4pm on a Monday. Daisy helped us with drinks and appetizers. We chose poke nachos, chicken wrap with lettuce, hummus with bread, all meat pizza, poke nachos and calamari. The drinks arrived and the appetizers quickly followed. The calamari came with a red sauce and a slightly spiced tartar sauce, good crisp. The hummus, a friend's go-to, had a nutty flavor. The poke nachos had a crisp fried wonton wrap, I was hoping for larger cubes but the flavor was nice (not shoyu) and good texture. The pizza was great, the proper thin crust with meat and cheese. A friend chose the chicken lettuce wrap with 2 sauces, peanut sauce and Thai sweet and sour. The chicken and peanut sauce had a bit too much of ginger so she did not like it as much. The chicken was a little dry. The beer is what our friend likes and he tries a different one when he visits. Serving size was generous, service was nice and efficient. Parking at Santana Row can get crowded. We parked in garage off Winchester Blvd after Tatum. It is free for the first 2 hours.”

Shabu Time 171 Jackson St, San Jose Japanese • $$

“Shabutime was such a great experience and easily one of the best Japanese hot pot spots I’ve been to so far.

This was my second time ever doing hot pot and my first time trying a Japanese-style hot pot, and it completely changed my perspective. Everything felt very organized and easy to follow, which made the whole experience way more enjoyable.

We ordered the beef toro belly and the seafood combo, which came with a full spread of vegetables. For broths, we went with the yukisaki and spicy Sichuan, and both were really well balanced and flavorful without being overwhelming. We also added vermicelli and udon noodles, which soaked up the broth perfectly.

What stood out to me was how satisfying the meal actually was. I’ve done hot pot before and left feeling like I didn’t really eat enough or get the full experience, but that was not the case here. Everything felt complete and well thought out.

They also have a solid selection of sauces and add-ons, which really let you customize each bite.

Overall, super impressed with the quality, the setup, and how smooth the whole experience was. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to.”

Oc Lau Nuong Restaurant 3126 Senter Rd, San Jose Seafood • $$

“Amazing little Vietnamese restaurant that stands out among the sea of Vietnamese cuisine here in San Jose. We had the Conch Salad, grilled razor clams with scallions, tamarind shrimp, and butter blood clams.

All of the dishes were incredible and very fresh, with generous serving sizes and quick delivery. My favorite was the tamarind shrimp but all tasted great. The conch salad was super refreshing on such a warm sunny day, and the shrimp in tamarind sauce were just perfectly tangy and tender.

When I’m home in San Jose, I want good authentic Vietnamese food that you can’t get anywhere else beyond the Bay Area and Vietnam, I don’t want to waste my time with gentrified and overly Americanized food.

Oc Lau Nuong is definitely and firmly going to sit on my food priority list for when I’m visiting home for great seafood at really great prices.”

Terra 2855 Stevens Creek Blvd, San Jose Italian • $$$

“I was in town for work and met up with my team for dinner at Terra in San Jose. There were 12 of us, and it turned into one of those evenings I'll remember as much for the conversation as the restaurant itself.

The dining room has a warm, inviting feel. It was busy, but everything flowed smoothly. Our servers kept an eye on the table all evening, so we never had to wonder where the next course was or whether anyone would come by to check on us.

The menu offers plenty of choices. Around the table we ordered appetizers, fish, pasta, salads, and desserts. I chose the grilled yellowfin tuna, and it was cooked perfectly. One thing that made us laugh was the salad. A colleague ordered one, and we both expected a medium-sized portion based on the price. Instead, it was enough for about three meals. She kept joking that she'd ripped off a rabbit's dinner.

Would I go back? Definitely. If I'm back in Santa Clara, Terra will be on my list.”
