Dear Rice Junky Team

I had the pleasure of dining at Rice Junky in Santa Clara today, and I must say, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I walked in, Joe, the manager, and Jay, the server, made me feel incredibly welcome. Their attention to detail and genuine care for customers shone through in every interaction.

The food, oh, the food! It was a delightful journey through flavors that are both comforting and exciting. Each dish was prepared with such skill and passion, truly showcasing the best of Korean cuisine. The ambiance of Rice Junky added to the overall enjoyment, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that complements the culinary experience perfectly.

I cannot recommend Rice Junky enough to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable dining experience in Santa Clara. Thank you, Joe and Jay, for making my day brighter. I look forward to my next visit!

Warm regards,

“Wonderful Experience at Trails Pub in San Jose!

Trails Pub in San Jose is a gem that should not be missed. Whether you're looking for a delicious meal, a relaxed atmosphere, or a great selection of drinks, this place has it all. Nice beers on tap, loved the Smithwicks. My partner had Dragon's Slayer. We wanted to play darts, and you can just request darts from the amazing bartender.

I can't wait to return and try more of their offerings.“

“O’Malley's Sports Pub has the kind of vibe where you can just kick back and relax. Plenty of TVs, so no matter where you sit you won’t miss a play, and the atmosphere is friendly without being over the top. The drinks are solid, the food hits the spot, and it feels like the kind of place you can hang with friends for hours. Definitely a go-to spot when you want good pub energy without any fuss.“

“Super fun place to hangout with friends. Drinks great and there's plenty of options. Staff is also very friendly. The food could be better but I don't go for the food.
The golf is very fun and challenging. Great for a date night or just going out with friends.“

“Great bartenders, fun people, and karaoke every Monday and Friday.“

“For the ambience we were planning to eat inside, but it was so hot and stuffy inside that we moved to the outdoor patio. It was pleasant with a nice breeze, but the music from the restaurant next next door was so loud, we could barely hear ourselves talking around the table. The food was very good, and was a great value. If you get there before 5:30 you can order some specials from the Happy Hour menu.“

“Awesome bartenders and delicious food. What more can you ask for in this wonderful pub! The beef Wellington stole the show on our date night, with flaky pastry outside and tender beef inside.“

“We are evacuees from the SC Mtn fires. Brew City was offering free meals so we decided to try it. I cannot say thank you enough. We were treated with so much kindness from all of the staff and the owner. Not only is the food and beer selection amazing but the atmosphere and outside restaurant set up is beautiful. We actually laughed and talked as a family. It was the best thing to happen to us in 10 days of evacuation, moving constantly and never knowing if we have a home to go back to. We will continue to come back as regular patrons... and I promise not to cry again. Please support this amazing restaurant. He said he would continue to do it as long as he could. We paid half of our bill for an amazing meal and a healing experience. My only complaint is they do not have merchandise to purchase! I wanted to be able to support them when we are back in our feet. Thank you Brew City. You did more then just feed us. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Delicious all vegan menu… the Red Curry Burrito was so good and the customer service was amazing 🤩 if you fly in to San Jose you have to drive downtown and pay them a visit 🥰🌱🌯👍🏾“

“It was great food! And great dancing!!“

“Fun friends & fun karaoke with nice voices“

“Crazy how busy this place was on a Wed evening. Had been here a few times before with no one in the place. Great selection of 22 beers, ciders and hard seltzers on tap from all over CA. So much outdoor seating to enjoy the evening weather. Friendly beertenders and dog friendly.“

“Always great atmosphere electric.“

“Met a colleague at a local wine bar.... First one said they were closing early.... Ok... Walked to the next. The other wine bar said they were closed, had at least six individuals drinking full glasses of wine. Refused service unless I wanted to purchase a bottle of wine Togo. I left.... Found the bank.... Met my colleague.... Dropped some cash at a great bar that appreciates customers. Later had a great meal... Dropped more cash at Burger Bar next door. My fault for leaving Woodside that day!

“An interesting place to stop for lunch if you’re at Moffet Field. And it has a dog friend patio. The bar was closed on the Wednesday we went, but the grill was open.
This was apparently the former Officers Club building and sits across from the looming Hangar One.
Both the patty melt and Philly cheesesteak were tasty.
Don’t miss the Moffet Field Museum across the street.“

“It is a very nice shop with VERY courteous staff Are you here yet?“

“We’ve been to this places twice for wine tasting in the past but the bistro didn’t open at that time. So we went on Sunday for special Mother’s Day brunch and give it a try. My sister is their member so we can order five different entries from their set menu. We had Shakshuka , Benedict eggs, avocado and salmon with bread , duck fried rice and special charcuterie.
The taste of all dishes are amazing. The duck meat is very well seasoned so it is not gamey at all .Shakshuka tastes like the one we had in Jerusalem.
Nice and friendly service. We can’t wait to come back again for their regular meal.“
