Restaurants in Saratoga

“Our first time to Saratoga but hopefully not our last. We loved the town and noticed this place across from where we stayed because of the long line waiting to open every day. Our last night we made reservations. The Mexican Corn appetizer is the bomb! Beet salad, great! Had a variety of steak or seafood options. Huge onion rings! We split the tomahawk daily special. Brought us a surprise for our anniversary. Would definitely recommend. Loved the staff, too.”

“If you like matcha latte, you ought to try this place. Their matcha latte reminds me of the super strong matcha ice cream I had at a well known tea house at Kyoto. I can tell they use premium quality of matcha powder to make their drinks. I usually order matcha latte with extra shot, 50% sweetness.”

“I cannot say enough about this restaurant! GOGA is the place to go for fresh, healthy, delicious food! Definitely Saratoga’s hidden gem! It is behind the UPS building with plenty of parking. The staff is wonderful, very accommodating & Chef Brads presentation & deliciousness of his fabulous meals is always 5 stars! We will be going back this Sunday for brunch with family from out of town that can’t wait to try it! Go GOGA!!”

“Celebrated our anniversary and everything was perfect! Great food and excellent service!!!”

“By far the best pizza around !! It’s unbelievably delicious and I love the sesame seeds on the dough ! 🤗”

“A what beautiful glass of rosé wine from the tap. The wine is fruity delicious and refreshing. I’ve tried tons of rose’ had my personals on their beautiful wooden encounter and I needed to have it all in the photo. This wine is just as beautiful as my wares. EDSean and Juan are usually here on the weekends.”

“I’m in love with this place — hands down my favorite spot for Mexican food. The green sauce is iconic (I always ask for extra!), and the grilled chicken burrito is my go-to. Every dish is plated beautifully, and the whole experience is just amazing.”

“We order from here at least every 1-2 months, food for everyone's tastes, fast service.”

“Amazing quality pizza and very friendly staff …”

“Awesome pricing. Pleasant service. I came here for lunch with my coworkers and the guy was extremely friendly and had the patience to deal with our indecisiveness, plus we were in and out of there in no time. Would definitely recommend anyone in the Saratoga area to go. The cheese pizza is the best I've had anywhere. The crust is great and homemade. The combination pizza is my second favorite”

“Very good Italian restaurant”

“What a great dinner! If you are a sake aficionado, then I highly recommend this restaurant. Be prepared to spend 4 hours there, but they only do one seating night and the food and service is outstanding.”

“Knowledgeable staff helped me find a new favorite tea. Prices are a bit steep, but worth it.”

“So happy that Casa Lupe has opened another location.
These are old family recipes, made with love. Everything is super fresh and very nice quality. The service is friendly and prompt. This is a great place to unwind and enjoy a great variety of dishes. Seating inside and outside. I'm especially fond of the chicken mole and chile verde.
Some parking in the front, lots of parking behind the building.”

“Relaxing atmosphere, polite and friendly staff, delicious coffee and pastries! Thank you so much!”

“SLOW. but I won’t ding stars for it. Food and service are great. But WARNING. food can take 40 minutes to make. Don’t go if you’re in a rush to get to Mountain Winery concert.”

“Excellent food and service.”

“After a bad f&c experience at the fisherman's wharf I needed redemption. Anchors delivered. Batter was just right. Fish tender and fresh. Home made tarter was perfect”

“Ate here last month and still thinking about how fresh the sashimi was. I got the lunch bento with 3 options and chose; sashimi, saba (mackerel) and tempura. It came with a small salad, rice and miso soup. The total was close to 25 dollars and well worth it. The saba was grilled perfectly and the tempura was light, crunchy and not greasy at all. I came with a class group of maybe 10+ people. The students loved the menu also and the staff were so kind and accommodating. 10000% wish I could eat here every week. 1000% will be coming back.”

“Mt. Eden Winery is truly a hidden gem. The moment you arrive, you're greeted with breathtaking views that set the tone for an exceptional wine-tasting experience. The wines are top-notch—each sip reflects the craftsmanship and attention to detail that go into every bottle. Their Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are standouts, but every wine we tried had incredible depth and character. The staff is knowledgeable and passionate, making the experience even more enjoyable. If you're a wine lover or just looking for a serene escape, Mt. Eden is a must-visit!”

“TED is the main brewer and is a TREASURE ❤️”

“The best Chinese Restaurant in Silicon Valley! The food is outstanding 🥇”

“Small batch, family-owned winery with old vine Zinfandel that is spectacular. All their wines are excellent!”

“I ordered a custom birthday cake from them, and everything from the ordering process to the cake itself was outstanding! The sweet potato flavor was rich yet perfectly balanced—not overly sweet. The cake truly made our day extra special and memorable.”

“Great atmosphere and friendly server”

“Great Coffee, my wife and i go there when we travel because we always get a consistent latte. We have never had a bitter latte or cup of coffee.”

“A cozy authentic Taiwanese restaurant in an area decimated by a declining Taiwanese population. This is an absolute gem, the cook should be commended!!

Southland taste recently closed ending 2 different families owning a south bay institution of Taiwanese food. If you are craving that taiwanese omlette rice or minced pork over rice I can vouch!

Wa shi Daiwan Lang. You can trust me if you are a Taiwanese foodie.

Omg update 5/15/25

I just tried their popcorn chicken and its AMAZING. SUPER THING CRISP CRUST AND THEN ALL CHICKEN BABY!!! WHAT THE AMAZING!

Cmere trust. Eat. Profit

Its between Old Republic Title and Chicago Title near Peets coffee, across the street from Jakes!

Re: negative reviews are poorly written and lack any thoughtfulness.

I've been to Taiwan 7 times in the last few years as well as am familiar when Cupertino was taiwanese before all the taiwanese, Koreans and Japanese fragmented left the area in large numbers or moved abroad.

You have to understand that the palate of people that enjoy other DIFFERENT Chinese cuisines will never agree with another Chinese cuisine, same with folks that hate on legitimate American Chinese food which is its own cuisine, there's British Chinese cuisine, Malaysian, Indonesian, Singaporean, Venezuelan Chinese, Chilean, Mexican Chinese etc.

Anything below a 4 is a garbage review with no effort they're either attack reviews from competitors or people that just can't appreciate the mom and pop style of taiwan.

Book a ticket (Taiwan) and eat in Tainan, Khaosiung, Taipei, changhua, jeelung and other places and you'll see what I mean.”

“I’m so glad I stopped by here before catching my flight. It is easy to reach, and the view and wines were fantastic. Very kind staff as well, highly recommend!”

“Woo Hoo!! They're open again after an extremely long shutdown after the Quito Village was torn down to build new homes on the lot. Placed a mobile order and picked it up a few minutes later. Very nice and clean open space inside. Nice!! 👍🏼”

“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!

“Delicious breakfast sandwiches!!! Alfajores not that good!”

“This is not yo'mama's burger joint. BBBB offers gourmet burgers and a variety of other amazingly delicious items on their menu. The staff and patrons were fun and friendly.”

“One of the best smash burgers we have had. Enjoyed dinner with Redwood Cafe while at Wilkerson Farms. The gentleman that was cooking knows how to make an excellent burger and frys. His service was top notch. I would highly recommend to anyone that come across his food truck to stop and give it a try. You will not regret it. 10/10”

“A most beautiful outdoor concert venue. Loved the Roman coliseum style and the sound is great. Very romantic atmosphere with wine tasting and food served on site. Food, wine and parking $25 can be expensive but it is worth it.”

“Very friendly and warm ambience. Baristas are helpful Ryan”

“My wife and I had breakfast and it was terrific. My chicken fried steak was cook to perfection as was eggs. The pancakes were fluffy. A great little place to have a quick or relaxing meal at. The menu has several things I wished I could’ve ordered.”

“이곳의 음료를 좋아합니다.
Drinks are nice! Boba is good texture.
Place has a lot of cute items.
Tiger Boba Milk Tea is great
Owner is kind, but little rude. I will say service is okay , 4 stars.

They have snacks and tiny claw machine. Also student pass for drinks.”

“La Mere Michelle hosted our wedding reception on Saturday Feb. 29th and it was an amazing night! Chef Marc, Madame Michelle, and their whole team really made this special for us. We asked our guests to get to the restaurant at 5:30, and they already had a special room all setup for us. I had been working with Marc in the days leading up to the wedding, he was a ton of help. Helped us get the room exactly how we wanted it and was even sending videos of the setup the day before. His great communication and confidence in the success of the night really helped put our nerves at ease. After our guests visited for a bit and had their wine served to us by a team of their staff, we started off with a delicious wedge salad. It had the perfect balance of Roquefort dressing, bacon, and bleu cheese crumbles. There was even someone going around with fresh cracked pepper offered to each guest! All the salads came out in a timely manner, with the bride and myself the groom being served first. The plates were quickly cleared when guests were done and it was on to the next course. Each guest was given a choice of a chicken, steak, or salmon dish. What I especially appreciated was that the guests had their orders taken on the spot - none of that needing to pick your option weeks/months ahead of time! Personally I was planning on the salmon, but that night I decided to go with the chicken. These entrees were served traditionally and also came out on time, with no guests having to wait any longer than the amount of time it took to walk back from the kitchen. The wine and water was kept pouring throughout this whole time. After dinner we were all served champagne for a nice toast and some speeches. The whole dinner, from the moment we arrived, we were waited on by at a minimum three staff. Not like they would wait other tables and come check on us when needed - they were there to help the whole dinner! They were also serving at the bar just outside the room when our guests wanted something different than beer. It was a really nice personal touch to have assistance the whole night. All the staff was nice and friendly, they were talking to us and the guests and added to the conversations but without being too much. Madame Michelle was also making her rounds, talking to the guests and giving us good marriage advice while also making sure everything was as perfect as we expected during this wedding reception. All in all this was a great place to have our dinner at. Chef Marc handled all the Little Details and provided us some much needed stress relief. The food was delicious, the service top notch, and everything was above and beyond what we expected. Looking forward to eating here again on our next trip to Saratoga!”

“Gret customer service and good quality”

“The Best Experience and service with amazing Fondue choices galore!!!!”

“We had a fantastic dinner with a nice private set up outdoors for our friends birthday party 🥳”

“Enjoy the slow moments and dining experience with authentic Japanese flavors here. Chef Suzuki is a master chef. They have been around 10+ years and have loyal customers. Make reservations as it is a small setting, you are not likely able to just walk-in.

Here is what I tried and I recommend them as representative and rare dishes in the Bay Area:
mentaiko isobe maki
assorted tempura
karasumi zosui
amaebi, otoro, uni nigiri
tomoshichi nigori junmai
Saba no aka-miso ni
hirame sashimi
purin w/ a candle for a bday

On the menu, it says you have to be invited to try a omakase experience from the chef. Somehow, someday I will get there.”

“Beautiful atmosphere, amazing food.”

“Highly recommended! This place is great!”

“I recommend Mountain Winery for the unbeatable combo—gorgeous views, great music, and that magical sunset vibe. It’s like a mini vacation without leaving town!”

“Amazing experience. The woman who was up front gave us excellent service. Was more interested in the Persian style of food, as this is what they specialize in. She brought me to each type of sweet that is eaten there. All of it was delicious and the coffee was great.”
