50 Best American Restaurants near Saratoga

“Our family of 5 went to celebrate my twins birthday. Our server Timmy was very kind and friendly. At the end of dinner he brought over separate desserts for each of my twins mentioning that they probably wouldn't want to share their dessert since they were already sharing their birthday as twins. That was very thoughtful of him! Overall had a great time celebrating . The service and food was good!“

“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!!“

“Apparently there is an egg dish I never knew I needed in my life: Turkish Eggs, poached and served over herb flavored yogurt with spicy oil. The poached eggs were the perfect texture, the yogurt was delicious, although the spicy oil drizzle could have been more spicy. It’s a nice light breakfast dish that I would love to experiment with. The menu here is quite varied, the latte we ordered was pretty good too. We sat outside in the sun on a crisp winter morning, it’s a joy. Will be back to try other things.“

“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“

The menu offers a fantastic variety of fresh, seasonal ingredients, and every dish I’ve tried has been bursting with flavor. What really sets Urban Plates apart is their commitment to quality. The salads are vibrant and crisp, the proteins are cooked to perfection, and I can always count on their delicious, house-made sauces to elevate each meal. The option to customize my plate allows me to explore new flavors while sticking to my dietary preferences. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, always ready to recommend their favorites.

Owner says SCU students got too rowdy with alcohol and causing trouble, so it’s not worth it to serve alcohol anymore. Thank the kids for ruining it for everyone.“

“Decided to stay here at the DoubleTree for the weekend. They have an amazing restaurant and bar inside the hotel that is so convenient for people who don't want to go out. You can eat and drink right there inside your hotel and just relax.

The guy working there his name is Gustavo, he did a fantastic job. And he recommended the tomahawk steak, which I would have to recommend to anybody. It's a $100 steak that's completely worth it!“

“Half-pound (and up) fresh ground chuck burgers perfectly cooked. Plenty of menu options like turkey, bison, ostrich & more. The fries are excellent, and you load up your burger with all the fixins. Simply the best burger in the South Bay - even better that what Kirks USED to be.“

“The food was so good. My steak was cooked to perfection. This was a last minute bruch with my friends. We saw it on tiktok and decided to go. The only thing was my red velvet pancakes were not red velvet 😪. It looked nothing like the video and definitely didn't taste like red velvet. I've eaten at restaurants with red velvet pancakes and mine taste like regular pancakes and it was pink not red. Other than that the drinks and vibes were good. I will be back to try some tacos!“

We had the Baca Burger which was scrumptious and their BLT... well that bacon was to die for. My son, soon to be 6yrs old had the children’s cheese burger and it was perfect for a growing boys appetite. He loved it. Thank you Chef Rod and Mado for the delicious experience. The Rojas“

“This was our first time and on Mother’s Day. We were seated right away on the patio (by choice) next to a heater. We ordered and our food came pretty quick and was delicious. I had the California Eggs Benedict and boy did the homemade hollandaise sauce blow my taste buds. It’s was so good.“

“This is a new restaurant in Mountain View, in the San Antonio Center. It's connected to the new Hyatt Centric, and a restaurant I highly recommend. The Poke Tuna Nachos and Wings were perfectly done and full of flavor. Paired well with an IPA.“
