“Sushi heaven does a good job of offering a variety of sushi: sashimi, nigiri, maki, temaki, and tempura, miso and specialty rolls (like California), and the price is right. It's affordable and the quantities are satisfying. If you think of it like a traditional restaurant that you find in Japan - except you sit on chairs at tables instead of on a tatami mat at chabudi (low tables) - then you'll find it satisfying.“

“Such a great spot! The atmosphere is cozy, welcoming, and exactly what you want when you’re looking for a fun place to grab a drink and relax. The drinks are fantastic, the vibe is great, and the bartenders really make the experience. Alex and Brock are the best bartenders. Friendly, attentive, and always make you feel welcome. You can tell they genuinely care about making sure everyone has a great time. Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to and recommending to friends!“

“BEsteak.A is an exceptional steakhouse that deserves every bit of its five-star rating. From the moment we stepped in, the service was impeccable—attentive, knowledgeable staff who made us feel welcomed throughout. The ambiance was enhanced by the soothing music playing in the background, setting a relaxed tone for the evening. I opted for the bone-in New York steak, and I must say, it was a masterpiece. The presentation was unlike any other steakhouse I've been to—the steak arrived perfectly cooked and beautifully plated. What surprised me pleasantly was their unique twist on the starter; instead of the usual bread, we were served a delightful plate of fresh vegetables with a decadent cheese dipping sauce—a refreshing change that set the tone for the meal ahead. The open kitchen concept added to the experience, allowing us to see the skill and dedication of the chefs firsthand. Overall, BEsteak.A not only delivered on taste but also on ambiance, service, and creativity. It's a place I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience.“

“We came here to celebrate my birthday, and we really enjoyed our dinner! The food was fresh and delicious, and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

You could really feel the teamwork, and it made my birthday dinner even more enjoyable. Thank you for every employee for making the evening feel special. We’ll definitely be back!“

“I wish I could give this place a 10/10 stars! The service was excellent, beautiful architecture, and superb champagne. A great place to stop by before or after dinner in LG. Such a beautiful story and extremely knowledgeable staff. Could not recommend more. A must visit in Los Gatos!“

“Alter ego has fabulous cocktails, atmosphere and service. I’ve had the cantaloop, Prima vida (I think that’s the name), and Buster + Babs, and all were delicious. I’ve also had their dessert, which at least now is vanilla gelato, almond streusel and black sesame fudge, and it is a 10/10.

Reservations recommended. Looking forward to returning for the Halloween menus, and to try more of their food!“

The vibe is always good, and Tina is hands-down the best bartender. She’s super friendly, attentive, and makes the place even more fun to hang out at. Great food, great drinks, and an all-around solid spot.“

“Wonderfully family owned business, where the bartenders know their drinks, staff is quick in keeping grounds clean and an amazing community fun space especially for sports games and hosting events! We had our high school reunion there!

As far as food, you can easily order from Spread (sandwiches) or Jtown pizza and are allowed to bring outside food in too!“

Best in all nay area, and 4-6 different flavors such as guava made with rum and spicy mango made with tequila. Only 2 shots for $6! I got a buzz off 4, and had to Uber home!!!!“

“Stopped in Friday and the BBQ Chicken was great. The baked potato had sour cream a butter. The beans were very tasty. The price was great and so was the service. I'm going to come back and try the breakfast and might add a bloody Mary. Nice bartender.“

“Love the on tap beers selection! Mixed drinks are also great. The Lightssaber was tasty. Dangerous,as it goes down easy :-) The dogs were stellar! I tried the Firedog. Slight bite, but not over powering. Great flavor! My partner had a regular dog sans onions. I can see WHY they have won awards. We also had the meatballs. They were amazing! The marinara was delicious! Service was also outstanding. Great setting, loved the theme and videos playing. ! I will be coming back!“

“Great neighborhood bar in West San Jose with friendly bartenders, strong cocktails, pool tables, darts, and a welcoming atmosphere. The service is excellent, the drinks are reasonably priced, and the crowd is always friendly. If you're looking for a local sports bar or lounge near Westgate Mall, Park Lane Lounge is a great spot to relax and have fun.“

“The food here is very good but even better is the service. The staff was very genuine, attentive and quick. Maybe the best service I've had in my life. I'm not in the area often but would definitely go again“

“It's my first time coming here. Street parking or paid parking lot only. Outdoor and indoor dining. Limited seating inside. Their menu is simple and yet offers enough choices for customers. I love the amount of craft beer choices. I'm glad they support a local craft brewery.

I ordered their No. 1 Hot Chicken Nashville Style Sandwich with fries. I was not disappointed at all. The chicken was crispy in the outside and juicy in the inside. The spiciness was perfect for me. Their fries were thick and well done.

The only thing that needs to improve is the hospitality of the cashier. She seemed like she had a long day based on her flat affect. She did not welcome customers coming in or checked if they liked their food. Other than that, this place rocks!“

“first time and quite impressed, clean, homey, and location has access to restaurants.“

“muy sabrosa birria es la mejor birria q he probado“

We got a couple pool tables jukebox and some other stuff I didn’t pay too much attention. They had a food menu as well, but I didn’t get anything last call for food was at 1 AM.“

“Wow. The sushi salad was AMAZING, the service was SO great AND the chef gifted us with salmon teriyaki!!!!!! Never even mentioned it was a birthday dinner!!!! Everything was so fresh, textures were amazing and taste was just right sweet, salty and so healthy. Grateful!“

“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.“

“great 👍 love grandma's special been going there for years!“
