New American Restaurants in Santa Clara, CA

“Restaurant Gish offers a unique dining experience with a focus on Korean fusion cuisine. The menu is prix fixe and seasonally driven, blending modern Korean flavors with contemporary American touches. We appreciate the meticulous attention to detail, both in the food presentation and the attentive, non-intrusive service. The ambiance is cozy and relaxed, with light background music, making it a great choice for a romantic evening.

All the dishes were so delicious and I would love to come back every month when they change the seasonal menu! Such a treat and we loved chatting with Stan, Ray, Areum, and Ben!

It's definitely worth a visit! We will be back very soon.“

“fast customer service and good food“

“Very attentive staff and delicious food“

“Sometimes they do not know how to properly construct a sandwich and instead of putting the spreader sauce on the bun they put it directly on the protein causing the sandwich to slide all over the place. How they present their sandwiches is inconsistent“

“Pretty average hotel. Giving it 4 stars given it included breakfast and happy hour. The bartenders and omlette maker were excellent and friendly. Other breakfast staff seemed less than thrilled to be there but overall went about their tasks and kept out of guests way. The rooms could definitely use some updating and the layout was quite awkward being right next to the stairwell. The room felt cramped and the bathroom small to maneuver in. Not sure if all rooms were that way but I'd suggest a different room. The hotel was reasonably close to some restaurants and easy enough to get around the area. Overall not a bad stay.“

“Tips and tricks (from a regular customer):
1. Boneless only.
The traditional bone-in wings here are mediocre and overpriced. One boneless wing is comparable to a chicken breast cut in half. Come on Thursday for discounted boneless wings. ($8 for 3 wings)
2. Sensitive stomach? Get the sauce on the side.
This place will drench your wings in sauce. If you have a sensitive stomach or a meeting after lunch, get the sauce in the side.
3. Don't use the hard plastic cups for water. Use the disposable cups.
The hard plastic cups for water taste like the wash rag or sponge they were cleaned with. Avoid ruining your delicious meal by selecting a disposable plastic cup.
4. Look at the beer selection.
There is always a great selection of beers on tap. Don't order before looking at the beer selection or you might end up waiting in line twice.
5. 3 is all you need.
If you have an average of slightly over average appetite, 3 boneless wings is right for you. Like previously mentioned, the boneless tenders are the equivalent of a chicken breast cut in half the hot dog way.
6. Validate your parking.
If you park in the parking garage near the place they will validate your parking. If you're not sure what parking garage, ask someone who works there.

Pretty sure this all still applies.“

“Great staff, clean and comfortable rooms, and quiet with nice balconies“

“This is the best dining option at California's Great America! With a wide variety of menu choices—from quinoa and beef burgers to chicken tenders and several types of pizza—plus sides like mac & cheese, seasonal vegetables, and more, it's the best value in the park. The condiment bar is well-stocked, and the staff is always friendly and efficient. The restaurant is well-organized, with consistently clean tables, though they can get packed during lunch and dinner rushes, so you might have to wait for a table. They sometimes run out of artisan sandwiches and desserts, and the quinoa burger takes a few extra minutes to cook but is worth the wait. Highly recommended!“

“Go here for lunch on Tuesdays & Thursday. They work hard in this program and I really think it shows. Food is usually very good. Portions are great value.“

“Pros: Close to the entrance/exit, it serves mostly chicken in different shapes and forms. The food quality is what you'd expect in an amusement park.Cons: The line moves really slowly, and it happens always. Weird to see that there is no more planning...“

“Just wrapped up two delicious pizzas. The Burrata pizza and Tostada pizza and we couldn't be happier. The pizzas were flavorful, well portioned, well balanced, and overall even better than expected. Would definitely come back for either pizza.“

“Ordered the BBQ chicken pizza on their regular crust, despite it being regular crust the crust is thin, the edges are thicker and not the super thin crispy crust but was thin enough for my liking without needing to do the extra thin. They currently have a take and bake for an additional $8 for any pizza! Don't forget to sign up for the loyalty app!“
