Restaurants in Sunnyvale
Best Restaurants
“We have been to DishDash many times and previously I have always thought of it as a 5 star place. The service is always good and the dishes are well-presented.However yesterday we ventured away from our typical dishes, Maza Sampler and Reyash. The Rihan appetizer was good but next time maybe we should try the Babaghanouge. My wife enjoyed her Tiki Kebab with Brussels Sprouts but I was pretty disappointed with my Tabsi Falafel. It tasted more like a typical American stew except with Falafels. At least the Falafels were excellent. The other two vegetarian entree choices did not look too appealing which is why I think in the past I always ended up just getting the Maza Sampler.Vegetarian options: Only three vegetarian entree options.”
“Really a hidden gem! I have passed this restaurant so many times and never went in. This Turkish food is amazing!There is an option you can sit outside and grill your food in front of you. The meat or kebab sticks sells about $9 per piece, so depending on how many you eat, you pay less or more. The tables are for 8 people but they can also join them for larger groups.I loved the shift kebab. Baklava was amazing, the service was great. They also offer fresh squeezed orange juice.Yummy!”
“Individual hot pot to order plus small dishes from the counter. My kids loved the seaweed salad and the chive pockets (special for $2.99) and we got the fashion pot which is not spicy”
“A very nice restaurant in downtown Sunnyvale. Located in the pedestrian only street, with parking nearby. Very friendly and professional service, and a great ambiance. The selection for vegetarian main courses is limited, however, only eggplant dishes. Nevertheless, a very good choice to dine in Sunnyvale.”
“The service and staff are so friendly and very attentive but the salmon taco…already want another! Delicious!At night, I wish they dimmed the lights to give it a little more ambiance and date vibes but would return in a heartbeat!”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“Higher-end, likely one of the best Korean BBQ places in Silicon Valley! Stylish decoration and ambiance are appropriate for the cuisine and culture. Good service with refills on side dishes. Beyond the barbecue, a-la-carte items are good also with no skipping on the ingredients!”
“Excellent food and service! We go to Casa Lupe for dinner once a month. Fast and friendly service. Try the chicken mole.Parking: Shopping center parking. Tesla charging nearby.”
“Love the food. Never had a bad dish from this restaurant. From the appetizers to the deserts and tea...everything is so delicious. My favorite dish is the quabilli (sp?) pallow with a side of the kadu! Amazing!!!!”
Restaurants with Delivery
“Great great great food!! Specially the Parathas, we tried vegetable and paneer paratha and it was delicious. Even kadhi kachori was super good. Dahi kabab was something different, never had so good in bay area before. The lady in the food truck is really sweet, she gave us complimentary cookies with chai. Good spot to have indian food and its not even costly.”
“Indulge in an exquisite journey of Indian Speciality cuisine at this remarkable restaurant, where seafood takes center stage unlike anywhere else in the Bay Area. Each dish is meticulously crafted with a symphony of aromatic spices, delivering unparalleled flavors that tantalize the senses. What truly sets this establishment apart is the genuine care and attention from the owners, who personally engage with every patron, eagerly gathering feedback and ensuring each diner's needs are met with utmost satisfaction. The selection of fish here is nothing short of exceptional, bursting with distinct flavors that redefine seafood dining experiences. If only I could award six stars, I would without hesitation. Here's to hoping this gem expands its footprint across the country, sharing its unparalleled cuisine with countless more food enthusiasts.”
“One of the best tasting Ice cream places in the Bay Area. Lots of fusion and traditional Indian flavors. Highly recommend: Bluberry Lavender, Biscoff cookie and Gulkand flavors.”
“Staffs are just lovely and the ambience is pleasant with light sounds of Nepali music in the background. The food hits all the right spots and often comes with complimentary sides! + ? for having outdoor sitting as I can’t travel without my pet.Can’t recommend enough to family, friends and colleagues!Vegetarian options: 90% of the menu is Veg!Dietary restrictions: There is vegan and halal options available!Parking: Parking is always availableKid-friendliness: So many happy kids!”
“Amazing flavors and very warm staff/owners. This unassuming place is in a quiet, older strip mall. The staff were warm, kind and accommodating. The ice cream is delish, with many unique flavors to choose from. I especially enjoyed Orange Cardamom. Games and books available to entertain the kiddos. There's also Nahita's Bakery and Cafe at this location serving up Turkish specialties.”

“I don't have a lot of experience with Brazilian cuisine, though I have been looks for a place in the South Bay. This is the first one I've found (other than Fogo), so it was a cool experience to try the hot food here. They are closed on Sundays so it never worked out for me to stop by. I went on a Saturday and they had the Brazilian Feijoada. The menu salted this for Fridays, which was fine by me (because it sounded more interesting than the Saturday dish). Anyway, the Feijoada was one of the best tasting black bean dishes I've ever had. It was a tad on the salty side, though the flavors were interesting.”
“Delicious and flavorful paneer wrap. Customer service is top tier. The older gentleman was very friendly and kind. How refreshing to get wonderful customer service! Area around the food truck was clean. Thank you! Support local businesses!”
“This is hands down the best vegetarian Vietnamese food I’ve ever had. The summer rolls were fresh and delicious. I also had the vegan duck soup which had a great broth. It’s owned by a sweet family. Support locally owned businesses and come!”
“Margarita Taqueria is a taco truck located in a parking lot. There are tables around a liquor store that you can eat at. One of the best tacos I ever! Meat was well seasoned and the portion size of the meat was good. I got the chipotle and green sauce and it was amazing. The complementary pickled red onions was a nice palate cleanser. I highly recommend getting the birria soup. It came with large chunks of tender meat, tortilla, white onions, cilantro, and chili. There was so much flavor in the soup. My friends got the super burrito and it was huge!!! It was the size of their forearms. Definitely worth the price.”

“I already loved Agape Grill as a dine-in experience, and recently decided to order their take out delivery for the first time. Just wow. Everything was perfect and the portions were very generous.”
“More like 3.5 for us but that bread alone is with .5 stars hahaHad the beef stew with bread so I could take home the stew.It was made with riblets that were slow cooked and very tender. The soup was good, can't say it was my favorite, but I would consider eating it again if I were there.The bread. Can we talk about this bread? My goodness the bread was fantastic. I bet someone here knows where they get it. Imo ALL Bahn Mi should be served with this bread. It had a super thin, but crisp crust all around, very crisp but thin. This is the kind of bread that delivers the crisp without slicing up your mouth like bait. The inside was fluffy and soft...superb.The Bun Cha Giao Thit Nuoung (noodles with BBQ pork and imperial rolls) came with a fair amount of meaty and tender pork, flash grilling it would really elevate the flavor because it has good flavor. The sauce could use a little more fish sauce.The purple drink is a taro drink made in house. It tastes ok but the taro which settles at the bottom is very gritty. I think they should make it into a paste before using it in a drink. Like the taro paste you get at Bambu or what is served in Vietnamese desserts.”

“I love this place. The food is crazy delicious! I recommend to order wings and Ttokbokki. The employees are always nice and friendly. However, I have to wait at least 30-40 mins to get the food. Besides that, I highly recommend this place. Also it’s easy to park”
“My boyfriend and I are regulars at this place—we go at least once every two weeks.We always get the spicy beef intestine rice noodle soup and we love it. They give the spicy intestines and soup in separate bowls so you can adjust the level of spice. Fair warning, it’s proper hunan spice so only add the whole thing if you can handle spicy!The staff are also super friendly and service is great.”

Burma Taste
“There has been nothing in the menu we do not like. The best appetizer is the roti with chicken curry. The Curry is a non spicy coconut milk curry. The best salad is the green tea salad. It has a slight kick even if you drop the jalapeños. The best soup is the samosa soup. For entries there are lots of good options, but I like the fiery dishes. They are sweet and spicy.Think of Burmese food as Indian, Thai, and Chinese fusion. If you like any of those cuisines you can find something you would enjoy on the menu.”
Outdoor Dining
“The quality of the beer was amazing. The place has a cool vibe and the staff were friendly too. Food is served from a nearby truck so no worries about the sides.”
“Amazing food! Ordered pani puri and Afghani soya chaap. The pani puri has three waters and the spicy water was the best. Careful, if your spice tolerance is low, coz this was Indian spicy. The Afghani chaap was yummy and exactly how we get in India. Super yummy food, keep it up!Vegetarian options: Soya chaap is really yummy and a great vegetarian option!”
“The service and staff are so friendly and very attentive but the salmon taco…already want another! Delicious!At night, I wish they dimmed the lights to give it a little more ambiance and date vibes but would return in a heartbeat!”
“Visited the Gurkha kitchen with my family today. The food was amazing ? We tried 3-4 items on the menu and everything tasted great. The ambience and service was also really good and quick. Highly recommended.”
“Where to begin with La Familia? Truly one of my favorite food trucks... everything deserves 5 stars. My go to is usually the carnitas torta but the birria is also very hard to beat! Be sure to wash it down with the tamarind agua fresca Not only that but the service is perfect. They are so sweet and friendly! side note: they also do catering so i recommend checking them out if you're in need of a caterer”
“Nestled in the bustling streets of Sunnyvale, California, This Biryani place offers a culinary journey that tantalizes the taste buds with the rich flavors of authentic Indian biryani.The staff is courteous and attentive, ensuring that every diner feels welcomed. Service is prompt, and the waiters are knowledgeable about the menu, ready to offer recommendations tailored to your palate.The star of the show is, undoubtedly, the biryani. Each grain of rice is perfectly cooked, infused with exotic spices, and layered with tender, marinated meat.The Chicken Dum Biryani is a must-try, with its succulent pieces of chicken hidden beneath a fragrant mound of saffron-tinted rice. Vegetarians aren’t left behind, with options like the Vegetable Biryani that’s brimming with fresh veggies and paneer.”
“I went to Asian Momo House while I was insanely hungry, and it did not disappoint. I got the chicken jhol momos, and man it was good it was really fresh. The chicken was tender and seasoned and hot. I also got the chicken sausage which was also good. However it was just a Hot Dog and I expected something more. I also got a mint lemonade as a drink. While there was barely any min in the lemonade they made up with this seasoning called Chaat masala which is really refreshing and tasty. Overall would not come again, but I do recommend to others.”
“This is my go to taco truck. My favorite is Lengua, cabeza and suerdero, I only had taco, torta and burrito here despite having come here for 30+ times, all good!”
“Excellent food and service! We go to Casa Lupe for dinner once a month. Fast and friendly service. Try the chicken mole.Parking: Shopping center parking. Tesla charging nearby.”
“Exceeds expectations. Go!Vegetarian options: Muhamara, Humus, BabaghanouheKid-friendliness: You can bring your entire familyWheelchair accessibility: No issue there”
“Loved the pizza and specially the homemade ranch..completely delicious and lip smacking.. can't wait to eat there againVegetarian options: Large selection to choose from.”
“1st visit. Won't be the last. Warmly welcomed in. Took my order. Paid. Was handed my food. In & out under 10 min. Food was fresh & hot. Highly recommend!!”
“One of my favorite Mexican spots in Sunnyvale! The service is 10/10! Owners and their staff are aways super kind, and attentive to our needs. Chips and salsa are fire! My favorite order is 2 tacos de asada and 3 mixed taquitos!”
“Wow, I really enjoyed my dinner. We stumbled into this place and it turned out so good. It’s basically American done really well.Order at the counter, find a seat and your food comes in about 10 minutes. They have a bunch of craft beers but I didn’t try any this time.They have a ton of dishes but we opted to both get steak. And it was cooked very well. Yet and well seasoned. Good portion size including the sides.Lots of seating. But a little loud. And a little cold in the main hall. The outdoor one (well, truly indoor) has heating lamps which help a lot.Looking forward to future visits.”
“Came at lunchtime with my mom and had a wonderful time.The staff was super friendly and helpful, and the lunch buffet is a really good deal with all you can eat, fresh naan, and hot chai.My mom loved the goat curry and i liked the butter chicken.Will definitely come again!!”

Mumu Hot Pot
“Good hot pot place. We went for the $75 combo which has option of choosing 2 meats, 2 soups, 2 sides and noodles. Tom yum thai style soup was very tasty. For meat we took prime agnus flat iron. Meat was juicy and blended well with the soup. The combo also comes with 1 veggies tray with almost everything in it. We did not find option for crabs here. And also fish eggs were alright. I will definitely visit again.”

Top Dumpling
“The most delicious but long-awaited pork pan-fried buns. The crispy and thin skin is covered with full of soup. Recommended!The fried cabbage tastes good, but I wish it had less oil and salt. The scallion pancakes are poppy. I won’t order them again next time?. The crab meat dumplings are okay!Credit cards are accepted, but discounts apply when paying with cash!”
“The food was very good. They were very generous on the side dishes.I also love their barley tea. We ordered the seafood pancake, spicy pork ribs, and the fried fish. It come with rice too. Everything was almost half gone and that's how good it was. I recommend coming here.”
Online Reservation Available
“It does not have a luxurious decor but when u see the chef is out and about checking guests at each table, you know this is going to be a great dinning experience. Don't let the word "vegetarian" turn you off. There are plenty of wonderful dishes: Fresh spring rolls, Thai soup, seaweed salad, green papaya salad and more!!”
“Bean scene cafe catered for our Grand Opening weekend of YogaSix Sunnyvale and the food was fantastic! Their pastries were wonderful and we loved their sandwiches! Our members and staff really enjoyed the food. Kenny the owner is very nice and took great care of us! We will definitely be back!”
“Seriously, and I don’t take this lightly, this is my favorite Shawarma place in the bay. The staff is so friendly sometimes when you go into a place, you just feel like somebody is there for the paycheck, however, these guys lived in breathe Shawarma.I’d go here for dinner, lunch, a quick snack, really any use case.This is a must stop by. Bring your friends bring your family.I recommend this restaurant”
“Amazing food. Highly recommend. Had goat biryani (succulent), chatinad chicken (spicy and decadent) and daal makhni (creamy and rich). It's owned by the same people from Indian tadka on el camnino.”

“Had a lovely evening here. I came with couple of my friends to try the place. We had saffron tea and love tea, perfect tasting teas I must say. We ordered starters and their each dish was delicious, ended up having dinner.”
“This place is just fantastic! What a lovely experience from the moment we walked through the door. The chef is fantastic! Great big full service well appointed bar. First class service. Five star food.”
“On a trip for work stopped by for dinner and a beer by myself. SUPER friendly staff at the bar. Juan and the entire staff kept checking onto make sure I had everything I wanted. Great tasty burger and tried a few sample beers to find one I loved to order a glass. Excellent food and beer. Highly recommend”
“Ordered Thai ice tea, yellow curry and pad kee mau and both were absolutely delicious. This is my 8th or more time coming here and this place beats the best Thai restaurants in the Bay Area. Family owned business and they keep the food bar high. Highly recommended!”
“This place has always been a favorite spot for lunch. Since covid, they no longer have indoor seating. That said, the Pinoy Breakfast A Pork Tosilog is a must-have. Always go for the double meat option for good measure. Don't forget to use the vinegar they include as it brings out the flavor of the pork and egg yolk!”
“Interesting paki/Indian food. I think they added a twist to some things with the burgers and the wraps. The kebab burger patty had some interesting spices. The dahi puri was good but I wish I didn't take it to go as it gets soggy quickly.Really cool concept tho and the good was tasty so I def recommend”
“Every time I come to this place and every time I forget to write a review). The restaurant is very clean, the staff is kind and courteous, the portions are large, the food is quite tasty, the price category is above average. I am attaching the menu and photos of the dishes.”
“First time at K's Café. I like how all the menu items are named after professional sports teams, although that makes me not want to order the Dodgers dish, haha. I devoured a delicious crepe stuffed with vegetables called Arsenal. It was pretty quiet inside when we arrived around 12pm on a Thursday. We could talk quietly even with a table of seven women chatting animatedly by the door. However, it became very noisy and crowded when a large number of students arrived from the high school across the street. I would avoid the school rush hour in the future. Prices were pretty high, but what else is new these days. Wheelchair access was good with space in the main walkway. We were able to choose a table at the end so there was enough room to maneuver the wheelchair. I forgot to take a photo of my meal before I started eating. My tastebuds were happy and my stomach was full when we left.”
“It's been a while since I visited Fu Niu Tang. Craving for crawfish, I decided to give it a try when I saw it on their menu. It's crayfish season now! They use live crawfish. It didn't disappoint! As someone who has tried countless crayfish dishes, from hand-held seafood to stir-fries to Sichuan-style.Since everything else was spicy, I ordered garlic flavor, which still had a bit of spice but not as heavy as the spicy ones. The flavor was so fresh! The crayfish flavor seeped into the sauce and cucumber. The rice noodles soaked in it were delicious! Next time, I definitely want to try the spicy flavor”
“Great downtown breakfast, lunch and dinner if you're okay to spend a little extra. Bonus: opens early for a full breakfast. Try the Californian pasta with a generous helping of shrimp”

Indian Tadka
“Came here with a large group of friends on a weekday night. We were able to be seated right away. The parking is ample, but most of the stores next door were closed by the time we arrived (around 7:30/8). We noticed there were other large parties in the restaurant, even one celebrating a birthday with their own cake! The service was quick. There's water already set out on the table for you, although it tasted a bit off. We got mango lassis and our own dishes. I got the spicy dosa. It's huge! I'm a fan of crepes, and eating this was so fun. The spice built up; I could still taste the flavors on my tongue and smell it on my fingers for a while after the meal. The mango lassi was sour, slightly sweet, creamy and mellowed the spice out. My friends got the chicken and lamb on sizzling plates and they smelled heavenly. They had great flavor as well, and came with onions and tomatoes. One of my friends got the chicken biryani and the portion felt like it could be 3 meals, or 2 at least. It was served TOWERING in a bowl so he wasn't sure how to approach it. I'd ask for a separate bowl on the side. The menu is extensive and has great prices. I'd definitely come back!”

“Everything very good food very good service find a person who gives you a moment and makes your night if you read this you know what it is for you why that person is ”
“I appreciate the personable attitude from the workers. Juan was a nice guy, made my food really well, and was just welcoming. The automated voice taking my order shocked me a bit but the workers inside were very cool. I also appreciate this place being open when it says it is, unlike the 3 McDonalds I went to before this.”
“Great service! I came in on a busy week night, there were only 2 people behind the counter but we got through pretty fast. They added a lot of meat - I thought they heard me wrong and did double meat but they charged like a normal sandwich. The workers were polite and quick, great experience.”
“Mixed feelings here. They missed a couple of boxes of nuggets (ordered 60 pieces, got 40). Drove back, door closed but good thing there's a customer inside who let us in. Talked to the shift manager and got us the missing orders.”
“The beef tongue and chazuke rice are huge and delicious. My favorite is the mentaiko noodles. The sweet shrimp sashimi was not very fresh today. Overall, the price/performance ratio is very good~”

Takeout Restaurants
“authentic Hunan cuisine fast service and friendly staff clean restaurant and free parking atmosphere delicious spicy fish with noodles and pumpkin pancakes worth the price and would return here often.”
“Slice of NY has been turning out quality pies for years! They are really at the top of their game. There a a few good pizza spots in the bay but SONY is hard to beat. In addition to the pizza they have the hard to find sodas and desserts not common to the area. I almost forgot!!! Don't skip the garlic knots!”
“Higher-end, likely one of the best Korean BBQ places in Silicon Valley! Stylish decoration and ambiance are appropriate for the cuisine and culture. Good service with refills on side dishes. Beyond the barbecue, a-la-carte items are good also with no skipping on the ingredients!”
“- MOOMO Mango Pomelo Sago(caffeine-free) with Limited Edition Cup- Uji Matcha Brulee Milk Tea- Thai Milk TeaTo order:There are TWO self order kiosks. One in the front and one to the right, next to seating in the corner.My drink was the Mango Pomelo, and I ordered it 50% sweet and regular ice. It was exactly what I wanted it to be......mango'y!!! It was sweet, a bit tart and delicious.The only complaints there were were about the Thai tea. My friend didn't like it much, but I didn't try it for myself.This shopping center is quite busy on weekends so parking can be difficult to find close. May have to park a little farther.There are so many good food choices in this shopping center. Would suggest having some dumplings or noodles nearby, then get your tea on your way out.”
“One of the best tacos in the South Bay. Please go out of your way to come this particular Lopez Taqueria location. The others are just not as good. The al pastor marinade was unique from other taco spots and had depth. The lengua tacos here are my favorite in the South Bay. It had a unique sauce it was stewed in and the texture is perfect. I like my lengua with a little chew and this was right up my alley. The chile verde was tender (and not the dry kind of tender). It was slow cooked and moist while the other location felt like it was boiled hard. Carnitas tasted good, it's standard, not the best I've ever had. Avoid the fish tacos - it's just bunch of dry fish sticks on a tortilla, not a big piece of juicy fish like most people expect. I like how they have chili oil on the tables. It adds a nice smokey touch. I wish they had orange sauce like the other taco spots in SJ (Spartans, La Vics, etc). The service here is extremely friendly. I come here pretty occasionally and the food is consistent. I'll definitely be back!”
“Love the food. Never had a bad dish from this restaurant. From the appetizers to the deserts and tea...everything is so delicious. My favorite dish is the quabilli (sp?) pallow with a side of the kadu! Amazing!!!!”

“The Chicken Kabab at Falafel Flame Sunnyvale not only impresses with its culinary excellence but is also complemented by outstanding staff services. The attentive and knowledgeable team enhances the dining experience, offering personalized recommendations and ensuring that each guest feels welcome. From the moment diners step into the cozy, inviting atmosphere, they are greeted with warmth, making Falafel Flame an exemplary choice for those seeking authentic Middle Eastern cuisine. The kabab itself—a masterpiece of tender, marinated chicken grilled to perfection—along with the harmonious sides, underscores the restaurant's commitment to quality and flavor. Overall, Falafel Flame stands out as a must-visit destination, promising not just a meal but a memorable culinary journey supported by exceptional service.”
“Phenomenal tacos!!!! So much flavor and fresh ingredients. Great serving sizes, great price! Ordered a Carne Quesadilla and 2 chicken tacos! Not sure what the drink was, but it’s pineapple flavored and delicious as well!! Highly recommend!!”
“Order: Lunch special #1, plato tipico, and horchata SalvadoreñoThis place hit the mark on several things when it comes to authentic taste. It's definitely better than a place I visited a few weeks back. I would say this will be a good option for me when craving MY food. Will absolutely save me miles from going to San Francisco for pupusas.You order at register, and then it's open seating. They have pretty good indoor and outdoor seating. Depending on the time of your visit, this may or may not vary.I ordered the plato tipico because I wanted to taste multiple items in 1 visit. The curtido and salsa were missing some of the authentic flavor for me, but it was still delicious.The service could use a little improvement. We waited a while as the cashier took calls. Food took a while to come out. We were not checked on, and I had to call the waitress over when anything was needed, but they were not rude.It's not a 1 hit wonder, so when that craving hits, I have an option to visit.”
“This place has a classic, low key local vibe that really makes you feel relaxed and cozy. You can choose between booth seats by the window or table seating that works for both smaller and larger groups. Personally a big fan of their beef stew - loaded with fresh ingredients and the soup is absolutely delicious. The grilled chicken tastes good too, although the rice can be a bit on the softer side the day I had. Staffs are welcoming and wearing smiles all the time. Inexpensive price. Highly recommended if you’re in the mood for authentic and casual Vietnamese food!”
“I usually order spicy pav bhaji here. Its tastes really good and the chai here is a must try. There’s a transaction fee (1$ i think?) added if you swipe the card for <10$. Better to carry cash if you’re going just for the chai, which i usually do :)”
“pretty chill little bagel shop. Got a jalepeño cheese bagel with garlic herb spread. The cost was not too crazy and the food was pretty good.I will say that one time my partner got a couple dozen bagels from here and they were stale as heck but perhaps they were just yesterdays or something.Other than that one time, never had any issues. Stop on by and get yourself some of that baked goodness. The donut shop next door is legit too. Looks a bit sad but the donuts are tasty.”
“Delicious burgers and fries. And they have diet Dr Pepper which is my favorite. Lots of seating to choose from. Even smaller more private rooms to eat in. I'd go here again.”
“Fast, affordable, and really tasty! I had the 4c (bbq pork) and was not disappointed. The store had a lot of various treats and goodies that looked great as well (like homemade kimchi, etc). And just as an fyi there is no seating so it appears to be just a takeout place!”

“Located in the corner, this Starbucks offers ample seating in a clean and spacious environment. The service is prompt, including a convenient drive-thru option, and there is an abundance of parking available. Additionally, the store features various Starbucks memorabilia for customers to purchase.”
“First visit - we loved it. I usually reserve the 5-star for multiple trips and see if it has staying power, but this place was right with me. Great food and great atmosphere and location in Mountain View.”
“I can't speak to the dine in atmosphere but the food is always hot and satisfying when I order take out. The Double Chicken Torta bowl is my favorite and the cilantro ranch takes it the extra mile. I order drive up so most of the time I don't even have to get out of my car. I've been here multiple times and it hits just right.Parking: Parking is shared with a strip mall, so its hit or miss, every time I've been here its around 6pm and I can park close enough if not right in front in the drive up order spot.”
“This is one my go to South Indian restaurants in the bay area. Located in Santa Clara, and close by India Cash and Carry store. They have wide variety of South Indian dishes, and all of them tastes good. Their Thali's on Weekends particularly have good menu items. The pricing is economical too and service is quick.”
“Very tasty sandwiches! Just wish the roll was more sturdy with a bit of outer crunch instead of soft and mushy, especially toward the end of the sandwich eating.”
“It just does not get any better than the original ice berg shake. If you have never been here, you must stop and try one. Many flavors to choose from. Go with confidence, and be hungry.”
“I haven't been in an Arby's since the one in SoSF closed, feels like 20 years back. Arby's roast beef is still delicious, and Arby's sauce is fantastic! Very friendly ”
“Excellent place to grab a delicious smoothie or acai bowl (they also have other foods and drinks). I love the smoothies and the bowls that I get here. It sure beats any other competitor such as Jamba Juice. The service is top notch also, Gary does a great job of helping the clients in a smooth(ie) manner by going above and beyond in service and quality. The other staff is great as well such as Giselle who ensures a quality experience. The owner is doing a great job in handling the business and making sure that the community is supplied nutritious and delicious foods and drinks. Way to go! Thank you for everything. Keep up the great work! I love the quiet atmosphere...”
“Taco bell was my first exposure to Mexican food after trying Chipotle back in 2007 US landing. The love of spicy Mexican food didn't fade till today especially when it's prepared by hardworking families and dotting mothers who are ready to go miles to feed everyone. Taco Bell is always a good feeling at any moment whether at the airport, near the gas stations or the university campuses!”
“So I had a terrible day in sunnyvale losing my wallet and luggage but hands down to this KFC location, is so good people here are so friendly, there a young lady who works in front is always smiling no matter your going through see someone smile can light up your bad day this place is super clean .”
“Great downtown breakfast, lunch and dinner if you're okay to spend a little extra. Bonus: opens early for a full breakfast. Try the Californian pasta with a generous helping of shrimp”
“I had the "chose two" dinner plate. Quesadilla and Enchilada with black beans and rice. Very good, liked the sauce and the pork in the Enchilada was nice. Very good margaritas also.”
“I became addicted to the deluxe meshi rice at Rokko Sunnyvale. I haven’t had this dish since I lived in Daly City. I’m so glad to find it here in the South Bay.Lately I’ve been busy with work, so I ordered delivery of deluxe meshi from Rokko. The portion was so generous. This filled me up and I feel the ingredients were fresh and the flavors were excellent.Rokko also serves okonomiyaki from Fugetsu, which I had in Osaka. Fugetsu is a global chain and it’s the perfect place for okonomiyaki.”
Cheap Eats
“Love the idlis and dosas here. The chutneys and sambhar are very good too. They do get a bit stingy with their sambhar-like even if you order 4 items, they give you same amount. They even told us once that dosa does not come with sambhar:). Allsaid and done,a solid pickup joint.”
“If you're looking for a good quick easy taco spot that tastes really good definitely come check it out. I highly recommend the super burrito everything inside. I also would tell you to try the quesadilla. Very very good. No questions asked. The staff is extremely nice and easy. The food comes in 5 to 7 minutes Max. If you're in the area come and try it it out you won't be disappointed. The location is in a chevron gas station”
“This place is amazing and a must try for Filipino food! My favorites are the pork adobo and sour soup. The soup is so good I've tried to make it at home, but nothing compares, instant comfort with one slurp.”
“I tried Kona Island Coffee's new Mango Macadamia coffee cake. It is a moderately sweet new item they are trying out. This isn't overly sugary. It contains pieces of mango and provides a nice balance to their coffee. I would get it again.”
“Ruby's is a classic place with an incredible selection of treats in a small place. So many options make it hard to choose. The people are patient and accommodating while you make your choices. A must visit whenever I'm in Sunnyvale”
“Great place for breakfast, especially if you are in one of the hotels nearby. Good choice of omelettes, pancakes, American breakfast classics! With good bottomless filtered coffee and iced water. Recommended.”
“I would consider this a hidden gem in Sunnyvale that needs more attention. If you're looking for a cake for a special occasion, you have to check out this shop. This is an Asian and woman-owned bakery (and the workers are soo sweet) that offers a unique variety of flavored cakes. I loved the little tea bar they had (complimentary for dine-in) and enjoyed looking at all the plants and other small gift items they had around the shop available for purchase.* Creme Brulee Crepe Cake* Earl Grey Crepe Cake* Salted Egg & Pork Sung Crepe Cake* Durian Mochi Balls* Avocado Molten Cake”
“Supports local comedy. Karaoke. Pool table. Fun vibe. I have been to the Plaza so many times, and I would've never thought that I would find a bar like this in the middle of this Plaza. It's got a pool table in the back. There's a little stage for local talents. The owner is super cool. He completely supports local entertainment and arts. He's really easy to work with. The bar keeps are all chill and easy to get along with. Tiffani is so sweet and has such a good heart. Dan has been so helpful and has gone out of his way to make the experience here. Absolutely amazing. I know I'm gonna keep coming back.”
“One of the most welcoming experiences I’ve had at a restaurant. Would give the service a way higher rating if I could. Wasn’t sure what to get but the gentleman that welcomed me in was more than helpful and even put together a sauce for me, asking my preferences while making it. Very ”
“The chicken was super fresh, crispy and Hot. Decent serving size of fries. Loved it.The owner went out of the way to make us chai which wasn't available on the menu that day ! Highly recommended.”
“Food is very good. See some people saying they don’t have seating (first off, why would you expect a food truck to have seating?) but they do have seating! Probably the best seating I have seen for a food truck.”
“I just love the pani puri and masala puri here. It gives the authentic taste. The service is quite good. There were buy one get one free offer. The place is also quite nice.”
“Unexpectedly landed on this place late night, absolutely awesome food, bang for buck. Guy at the counter was friendly and made me an awesome Vegan Taco salad (just ask).”
“Cool hidden away local (dive?) bar! Wouldn't have even known it existed excepts friends band issues there. Looks like regulars must frequent the place. Decent set of beers on tap. Pool table. Some scattered seating. Great music atmosphere. I think the mic audio could be slightly improved cuz it was a little distorted but it's all good. Clearly a little older crowd.”
“Best paneer pizza I've ever had. The quality has remained excellent even after so many years. The dough is made in house, the paneer is generous, the pizza is tasty and looks great.I ordered a half and half medium size pizza - Vijayawada paneer and Butter paneer.”
“My wife and I have gone to this hidden gem restaurant several times. I took two friends for lunch today and both thought that the food was delicious. The BBQ is award winning! The portions are big as well. We got to meet Ryan the co-owner and pit master today who was very welcoming. I've posted pictures of the 3 St. Louis style ribs, brisket sandwich and caleb's cracklins. The BBQ plate orders come with choice of two sides and a roll.The sandwich comes with choice of one side.”
“We have been sick and gotten take out from this place twice in two days. I have been trying to find a good porridge place near us and I think I have found it! We got the minced beef porridge twice - flavorful, a lot of beef, and I love that they put slices of ginger. (We been to some other placed and the porridge has been bland) Singaporean noodles - I didn't have any since my throat hurt. My husband said this was done very well. Wet egg with beef over rice - A lot of toppings and also well flavored Love that it is close by and open all day long.”
“The fried chicken wing is very tender and fresh, I especially love their crispy fried chicken. The staff's attitude is also very good, and the service is fast. I will definitely come back!”
“We've been here many times over the years and the food, wine and service has always been really good!I recently found out that Pezzella's makes a Parisian burger which originated at Linda's Drive-in which was in Mountain View from 1956 - 1985. Linda's was famous for its Parisian burger & super fries (tater tots). Well, I ate a lot of Parisian burgers in my younger days and they were addicting. So recently I got a Parisian burger with tater tots to go that I took home to eat. The Parisian burger was big and delicious. It brought back memories of eating at Linda's. I could barely finish the burger and tater tots and I wasn't hungry for a long time afterwards. Great job with the Parisian burger Pezzella's.Valary who I met was really nice and we had a nice brief conversation.Last Saturday we had a really delicious dinner.We started with the fried artichoke hearts which were really good! Then an order of garlic bread.The breaded Veal Parmigiana, tomato sauce & mozzarella cheese was delicious due to the cut and quality of the meat which made it so tender..the tomato sauce was delicious as well. They have several veal dishes and are done old school, usually served with a side of pasta and a side of veggies.The Linguine with chopped clams in butter, garlic & white wine was also delicious.The wine was also very good and our server George was excellent!Valary was also working again and she's really nice!”
“3.5 STARS Date: Saturday, April 6th, 2024 Time: 3pm Meal: Birthday Late Lunch / Early Dinner Part of: 6 Reservation Made: via Yelp about 1.5 weeks earlier Dinner BBQ & Hot Pot ($37.99) x6 *Japanese Miso *Healthy Herb x2 *Thai Pot: Vegan Spicy x3 *Pork Belly x2 *Ribeye x4 *Spicy Pork Belly *Pork Belly x2 *Pork Jowl x2 *Garlic Shrimp x2 *Galbi Marinated Short Rib x6 *Seapot Angus Beef x2 *Beef Tongue *Steam Rice x3 *J Lohr Cabernet 2019: 375ml ($23) *Sapporo Pitcher ($25) *Original Bottle Soju ($13) *Peach Bottle Soju ($13) *18% Tip ($54.35) For a friend's bday, we decided to do a late lunch at Seapot. I believe on weekends they are open all day and the dinner price applies all day as well. Tip was automatically added to the bill, but I think that was because we were a party of 6? I do adore Seapot for their conveyor belt offerings. I tend to like variety. And I gravitate towards a lot of veggies and seafood. So it's nice they are readily avail in small portions. I don't feel like I have to eat a portion of veggies for the whole table if no one else wants some. Also, super convenient since we don't have to wait for the server to bring those items out. Meat wise (and some seafood), you have to order thru the server. And there's a time limit of 90 mins. Unfortunately this took a while, so we were only able to order one round before the server came back for last call. For bigger parties, they should give two hours as that's not enough time to cook and eat everything. (We still had uncooked plates when they came back for last call.) There's only one grill at a table for 6. It's definitely not enough time to get your korean bbq on. For an AYCE place, this was one of the first times I didn't really leave full. Drinks wise, we had a red wine drinker, so we tried to order a bottle of red wine. The first bottle, they were out, so I asked about two other bottles. They were out of those too. He could only offer a bottle we didn't want, so we ended up with a half bottle of something we originally asked about. Corkage here is $25, while the average bottle was around $40-$50, so it didn't seem worth it to cork anything. I think if we had a smaller party, it would have been fine. But for a larger party, I don't think it's worth coming here. The time limit isn't really enough to take advantage of the AYCE.”

“Fun place for a quick outing. Not an indictment on this particular location but just the brand, I personally wish there were more holes for the table top golf. That was way more fun for me personally as opposed to the mini golf. Oh and customer service was welcoming and friendly.”
“Delicate food and excellent service. I go there from time to time and it's my favorite dim sum place. The chicken feet and deserts are the best. Shi Chao Niu He was okay. One time I spilled hot water on my hand and the waitress was so nice to prepare an ice bag for me.”
“I've never tried okonomiyaki so I wanted to try this place out. This place is in a restaurant called Rokko so it almost made us miss the place when driving by since the outside sign only displays Rokko. The menu had lots of options to choose from as it's 2 restaurants in one: Rokko and Fugetsu. Shrimp & Veggie Tempura: 4.5/5A great variety of shrimp and assorted veggies! Very generous and included 4 shrimp tempura. Very fresh and crispy. Okonomiyaki Sampler: 3.5/54 mini okonomiyaki which includes Ebi mayo, Negi-tsukimi pork and Gyusuki negitama, and Cheese. The shredded cabbage base sort of reminds me of hash browns. Wish we got the noodle version AKA modanyaki!Service was amazing, our server was so friendly and was constantly checking up on our table! I'll come back to try the modanyaki next time! Check this place out if you want to try okonomiyaki!”

“This was one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. The gentleman who serviced at our table was amazing, prompt, reliable service with a smile. Great conversation. I can't say more about how myself and my date really were impressed with everything that he did. I definitely will be going back. He represents the company well”
“First time at Xiang Xiang Noodle. We had E5 & L4 and both were delicious. Service was friendly as well. It might be a bit expensive but considering the noodles are handmade, it is reasonable. This place is better than another place in the city that makes their noodles.There is parking, but the lot can be a bit dangerous at times due to congestion when it is really busy. It has always been that way, so just be careful.”

“I went here while traveling to Sunnyvale for work and went back several times. I usually get the pear&avocado salad, the Kobe burger and a Toki highball. I sit at the bar. The highball is executed really nicely, some orange and an airless giant ice cube. The salad is perfect, substantial but not heavy, nicely dressed. The Kobe burger medium is a little pink, really tasty. It’s pretty quiet during the week, staff is friendly but all business. Nice place to unwind.”

“I always order to go and they will separate the soup and the noddle and they will also ask my arrival time so they can planned the time to delivery my order. So I could take home with warm food to serve without warm it up again. Thank you and will recommend.”

Siam Taste
“Siam Taste in Sunnyvale is a gem! My girlfriend and I are regulars, drawn in by the chicken yellow curry and the irresistible spicy fried rice. She loves the tom yum soup, which, like every dish here, is fantastic. Beyond the food, it's the owners that make every visit special. Their kindness and attentiveness ensure a dining experience that's as warm and welcoming as the meals are delicious. Highly recommended to anyone looking for Thai food in Sunnyvale!”
“Quite a treat to have great food, service and atmosphere just a staircase away! I enjoyed the Tortellini Chicken Alfredo considerably. Props on the cherry tomatoes as well, which were perfectly tender and full of flavor. I highly recommend stopping by and enjoying a meal with the excellent and attentive staff here at Kitchen.”
“I went for a walk from the hotel where I was staying.I should have taken more photos, but there is a showcase of sweets at the entrance of the store.All of them look delicious.I ordered two items from appetizer and two items from main (pasta and pizza).Appetizer's squid rings (I wonder how they are called in English) are a side dish in Japanese supermarkets, but they would be delicious if they had a sauce like this.?Pasta and ?Pizza were great❗️For dessert, we all ordered different things and shared them. The size makes it perfect for sharing.☕️ is also available in decaf (no caffeine) so you can drink it at night.The parking lot is behind the store.You don't have to go to the front, you can quickly enter by using the back entrance.Is it a good thing about America?Parking: There is ?️ at the back of the store”
“A very atmospheric and noisy Irish pub. Getting inside is like being transported to another country and discovering something new. We were there on Friday evening. You need to find a table yourself, so I advise you not to yawn and immediately go looking for it before someone more active gets ahead of you. On Fridays there are a lot of people and it’s almost impossible to find a free table, but we were lucky. I can also tell you - if you are very hungry, it is better to go to another establishment. For example, we waited for our order for more than 40 minutes and it was not happy. The service is quite long - it looks like the waiters can’t cope with such a flow of people.In general, the food is not bad, and the selection of alcoholic drinks, including beer, is quite good.”

Tao Tao
“Favorite Chinese restaurant in the South Bay. Large portions, fantastic Mai Tais and great service. Great for parties/groups of people. I would highly suggest the group menu which allows a wide variety of dishes. I would otherwise suggest the Tao Tao beef and the famous Tao Tao chicken salad (best salad ever). I like Tao Tao so much that I will drive half an hour just for the salad.”
“We were three people for Sunday dim sum. The restaurant was full but we were seated within 15 minutes. The roast duck and the turnip cake were excellent. The service was fast and accurate.Parking: The parking lot is for about 24 cars but was full at a busy time on Sunday.Kid-friendliness: The customers included many families. The children were enjoying their visit.Wheelchair accessibility: The rest rooms are accessible. The tables are tight together at busy times.”
“A solid sushi restaurant.My experience here wasn't as exceptional as some of the other reviewers, but there was nothing wrong with it, and I'd go back (although I'd likely try a different sushi place in the area first.)Some sushi places leave you going "wow". This one didn't. But the sushi was definitely high quality, and made for a good meal.”
“Fresh tasty sushi and good service. We came on a very busy rainy night and the beautiful more traditional Japanese style interior was such a relief from the weather! Parking is between the gas station and the building. My new go to place for local sushi!”
“This site is my preferable restaurant. Of all restaurants I know I prefere it most. I never miss an opportunity to go to that place. everytime I want to go to a good dinner, this restaurant comes right away to my head. Great and all kinds of food and a large list of dishes.professional team, and good atmosphere. Also, the price is good. I praise this spot with no hesitation.”
“This is an awesome mom and pop type restaurant run by a very warm couple. The food is authentic Persian. The number 9 dish Kobdiah chicken is awesome. Also the eggplant appetiser is nice. Highly recommended!”

Ramen Seas
“First visit - we loved it. I usually reserve the 5-star for multiple trips and see if it has staying power, but this place was right with me. Great food and great atmosphere and location in Mountain View.”
“Great happy hour prices! Can't go wrong with a Moscow Mule or a Margarita from here. The drinks aren't overly sweet and they don't skimp on the alcohol either. Food portions are pretty big here! Like... impressively big - at least from looking at other orders of nachos and fries. I got the Buffalo Chicken Wings, which were pretty good! Not too heavy on the vinegar, but they were spicy! Very saucy as well.”

Sawa Sushi
“Really enjoyed the dinning experience here, the environment is quiet, the food is great, and I had quite a pleasant chat with the owner Steve.The quality of the food is top notch, especially the uni which is the best kind on the Japanese market. And Steve's special sauces, fresh veggies and real wasabi really brought out an unique and surprising taste to the fish, which could be a bit bland just by itself. The caviar is great on its own, but together with uni, it really gives you that WOW factor. Also the wagyu is just amazing, it really just melts in your mouth!And the most important thing, you have to try the mochi there, the freshness and sweetness really help you wake right up after the protein feast earlier lol.The owner really knows his stuff, from food to Bay Area life, he knows it all after having the restaurant here for almost 30 years. If you want, you can have conversations with him the whole time, it never gets boring.Overall 10/10 place, would recommend to anyone wanting something new from just the usual soy sauce and 'fake' wasabi Japanese restaurants.”

Hanamaru
“They do take-aways only - and have an extensive menu that makes it hard to decide. With the constant cloudy, windy & intermittent drizzle/rain past two days, decided a Yosenabe would warm me up ?.Chockfull of prawns, clams, mussels, scallops & oyster. Loads of tofu, brocolli, carrot strips, white cabbage & glass noodle - with broth to the brim & hot. Portion enough for two meals or to share!Came with a small container of white rice & a bowl of fresh salad - was not expecting this as it was not in the menu description. ?”
“Delicious Taiwanese fried chicken that takes a little inspiration from Japanese street food with their sweet sauces and pan-fried cutlets. One combo was big enough for two people.”
“We grabbed lunch at Taco de Oro when we didn’t feel like cooking. Lots of choices on the menu and the service was great. Loved my burrito and my husband liked their flan for dessert. We’ll be back!”
“Very good with good portions. I had the spaghetti with meat and mushrooms and it was fantastic. This seems like the type of restaurant that I can eat at all the time. Unfortunately I live a thousand miles away.”
“A friend suggested we meet up so I suggested dim sum and he immediately said we should go to Saigon Seafood Harbor Restaurant. He suggested we get there at 11 AM because there's usually a huge line. Fortunately we only had to wait less than 10 minutes to get a table for four.After being seated I immediately appreciated that this place still uses dim sum carts ?. Almost all of the other dim sum places have you order on paper which is more efficient but takes a little bit away from the experience.The dim sum was good though honestly I am not very discriminating about dim sum. We ordered the typical, Siu Mai ?, Steamed Pork Ribs , Shrimp Dumplings ?, Stuffed Eggplant ?, Fried Sesame Balls ⚽️, etc.One thing that surprised me about this place was we were never hurried. I think we were there for ninety minutes. ⏳”
“Great service, great food. Order a 3 meat plate with pulled pork, brisket and baby back ribs. The brisket and the pulled pork was an amazing and the ribs was ok. As a side, I ordered a mac & Cheese and potato salad and both were delicious. Highly recommend this spot.Kid-friendliness: They have a table games for the kids and the environment is very welcoming”
“I regularly eat at or order takeaway from this place for dinner. It definitely feels like a hidden gem and deserves more than its current rating. I usually get the 3-item bento with a variety of choices. The food is always delicious, plentiful, and relatively inexpensive for Japanese food in this area. The guy usually manning the place is very kind; one time when I was late in picking up my online order, he had my meal remade so I could eat it fresh. That's top notch service right there.”

“I will start off by saying it's Fantastic!Went on a weekend for brunch and didn't need reservations, we were the first to walk in.The staff makes good recommendations, we started off with the recommended mocktail, which was excellent!I would highly recommend the Malai soya chop..Hair mirch paneer was good too, it had a strong green chili aroma, unlike anything else I have had.Absolutely loved the Rasmisu, must try.Overall great experience but, price is on the higher side.”
“I am excited to share this with everyone who is viewing my review. One of the best places to enjoy bobba here in the town. I fell in love with the ambience first and then ease of ordering, polite staff and tasty bobba ”
“Incredible food and thoughtful service. My father loves eating lunch here. I brought my friends here today, and the waitresses packed our food into takeout boxes for us. The food here is so comforting, flavorful, and delicious. The vegetables are crisp after being blanched and sauteed. I can see myself having dinner here after a long day at work. Across different sections in the menu, the portions are quite generous.”
“This was my first time ever going to any Round Table Pizza place. I signed up for their rewards program and got an offer for 6 free long huge pieces of Garlic Parmesan twists. They were so delicious and completely free. No purchase necessary. The restaurant looks clean enough and there is tons of free parking outside. The seats are a bit dirty and sticky so I gave the Atmosphere category 4/5. Everything else about the environment was great and the employees were professional to me.”
“This place has the best Fried Pork Buns (shēng jīan bāo 生煎包) and braised fried rice with pork I've ever had!!!! I order those 2 dishes every time.The fried pork buns have extremely juicy and tender meat with the perfect flavour and amount of soup. The buns are fried to a beautiful golden brown on the bottom adding a layer of crunchy texture to the tender meat and soup wrapped inside. Each bite is bliss. The braised fried rice is very 香, it has a great flavour and makes you want to keep eating more and more.I've also tried their Spicy Minced Pork Dry Noodles and cauliflower but those were too dry and not as good. They have both a brick and mortar location (seems to be a good location (also nearby Hanabusa Cafe!) with decent environment/seating inside) and are also available on Uber Eats.”
“I came here on a Saturday around 11:30 for an early lunch. I ordered the Thali - I simply loved it. The variety of food was staggering - ridge gourds curry, plantain curry etc were new to me in a thaali. Other restaurants typically offer the same fare - carrot/beans, aloo etc Contents of Thali- rice, choice of Poori/chappathi, dal (yum!), ridgeourd curry, plantain curry, sambhar, rasam (refreshing!), 2 types of pakoda and frymes. Helps that it was unlimited. The food was also not too spicy and most of it can be served to a baby. The restaurant ambience was also nice. Love the paintings and clean space. The wait staff were also so pleasing and nice and served every item with a smile. I really loved this place and cannot recommend it enough”
“Went for a weeknight dinner with a group. The place was pretty crowded for a weeknight. Hostess was very sweet and food was delicious. We tried the spicy ghost pepper chicken - it was crazy hot. Chilli garlic fried rice, street style Chowmein, paneer tacos and chicken tacos were great as usual.Parking: Free parking lot 5 mins walk away.”
“*UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT*I've been going to sake bomb for quite sometime and loved it, However, prior to the management change, they would close around 9pm. NOT ANYMORE! If you need to get your sushi/Japanese with Korean twist cravings satiated, they are open until 2am.My girl and I ordered two sushi rolls, a chicken bento with tempura, and a egg cheese slut (as the name implies very cheesy)The highlight of our experience was the chill ambience and the phenomenal service. Our server Vivi (sorry if we butchered the name) was very sweet and funny af. As Sunnyvale locals it's breath of fresh air to have another spot that is open late and provides great food/service.Expect us more, Sake Bomb! ( next time, I'll try out the sake menu)”
“if you want to buy high quality meat, this is where you go. Friendly people, nice place, and fresh high quality meat. If you are lucky you will find some artisan bread that is so much better than store bought ones.”
“I go there every weekend and the food is classic Indian food which I like so the food is simply pretty good! The service is slower but it is okay because the atmosphere has pretty good entertainment and they have Indian songs and movie clips playing. So I give it a 4/5 star. You should definitely go there if you like Indian food.”
“The environment and menu has improved since the new management Monique started, she has improved the menu, the environment, and her personality & compassion really shows in the work she puts into entire place!! I'm not sure the owners see all the upgrades Monique has brought to the place, I'm sure the owner's do not compensate the newer manager for all she brings to the place! She's there pretty much 24/7, and it shows!!”

“One of the only locations that still has Reserve beans. Looked fairly busy when I dropped in to pick up mid-morning. I usually don't get anything else here so I can't speak to the service times, however I usually don't get an acknowledgement or even eye contact when I pick up my order.”
“Delicious burgers and fries. And they have diet Dr Pepper which is my favorite. Lots of seating to choose from. Even smaller more private rooms to eat in. I'd go here again.”
“Food is pretty good and well presented. Large portions, authentic flavor. Prices are a little high for my taste and no drinks included in price but as a treat it is worth it. If one doesn't have an enormous appetite perhaps you can share one dish as they are large plates. You can always order more and the food comes out pretty speedy.Love the delicious salsa selection for chips and your meal (chips are warmed and free) though be mindful they are spicier than most other places.Gets crowded because it's good food but it can get loud and hectic. Bring cash to tip they don't let you sign for it.”
“I already loved Agape Grill as a dine-in experience, and recently decided to order their take out delivery for the first time. Just wow. Everything was perfect and the portions were very generous.”
“Amazing cakes. The chocolate ganache and other cakes that we had weren't overly greasy. Right amount of chocolate. I don't like cakes that are too sweet. So, these worked the best. Love it and will visit again.”
“This place is amazing and a must try for Filipino food! My favorites are the pork adobo and sour soup. The soup is so good I've tried to make it at home, but nothing compares, instant comfort with one slurp.”

“One of the best tasting Ice cream places in the Bay Area. Lots of fusion and traditional Indian flavors. Highly recommend: Bluberry Lavender, Biscoff cookie and Gulkand flavors.”
“Wow, I really enjoyed my dinner. We stumbled into this place and it turned out so good. It’s basically American done really well.Order at the counter, find a seat and your food comes in about 10 minutes. They have a bunch of craft beers but I didn’t try any this time.They have a ton of dishes but we opted to both get steak. And it was cooked very well. Yet and well seasoned. Good portion size including the sides.Lots of seating. But a little loud. And a little cold in the main hall. The outdoor one (well, truly indoor) has heating lamps which help a lot.Looking forward to future visits.”

“Our friend found this place on Yelp, so we decided to give it a try. We are so glad that we did. Everything was so fresh and tasty. The food portions were big and filling. We will definitely want to come back again.”
“Wow- this place transports you back to India! Be it the number of people waiting to be seated or the simple ambience just like a small cafe back home! This is one of my favorite indian restaurants which have cracked the code of crowd management. You first order your good, make payment and then for table assignment. Once seated, they are so efficient, never had i have to wait for more than 5 minutes. Additionally, all servers are very polite, will ensure to promptly give any extra chutneys or sambar. Now onto the food- taste is superb for everything we have tried to date- masala dosa, vadas, idlis, mysore masala dosa, rava dosa- you name it. Another plus is that, while waiting to be seated, you can also combine this with a quick grocery run at the neighboring madras groceries where you always find great indian vegetable. Yes, the ambience could have been better but food and efficient service makes it a 5 star experience!”
“Great great great food!! Specially the Parathas, we tried vegetable and paneer paratha and it was delicious. Even kadhi kachori was super good. Dahi kabab was something different, never had so good in bay area before. The lady in the food truck is really sweet, she gave us complimentary cookies with chai. Good spot to have indian food and its not even costly.”
“I would consider this a hidden gem in Sunnyvale that needs more attention. If you're looking for a cake for a special occasion, you have to check out this shop. This is an Asian and woman-owned bakery (and the workers are soo sweet) that offers a unique variety of flavored cakes. I loved the little tea bar they had (complimentary for dine-in) and enjoyed looking at all the plants and other small gift items they had around the shop available for purchase.* Creme Brulee Crepe Cake* Earl Grey Crepe Cake* Salted Egg & Pork Sung Crepe Cake* Durian Mochi Balls* Avocado Molten Cake”

“Margarita Taqueria is a taco truck located in a parking lot. There are tables around a liquor store that you can eat at. One of the best tacos I ever! Meat was well seasoned and the portion size of the meat was good. I got the chipotle and green sauce and it was amazing. The complementary pickled red onions was a nice palate cleanser. I highly recommend getting the birria soup. It came with large chunks of tender meat, tortilla, white onions, cilantro, and chili. There was so much flavor in the soup. My friends got the super burrito and it was huge!!! It was the size of their forearms. Definitely worth the price.”

“While the food quality and portions are superb and this is my go-to place, there are a few points that this outlet needs to seriously consider to ensure customers keep gravitating back! Making sure to address the issues associated with the availability of items on Doordash (for instance Vijaywada biriyani not being available in regular size) and using less oil for dishes would be a few good places to start!”

“Very happy to have discovered this spot so close to home. They have a 7-10 pm happy hour with draft suntory beer and small bites menu every weekend, so prices are quite reasonable. The standouts: The beef tongue was one of the best i've had, tender, flavourful, and you get a good amount for the price. (5/5) The grilled mochi - my gf said she would come back just for this, its a must try. (5/5) The soba panna cotta - an amazing dessert, not too sweet, great nutty notes, fun jiggly texture. (5/5) The not so good: Takowasa had some pieces that were offputtingly mushy, and was rather small - (2/5) Chicken skin was flavourless and overdone, but at least cheap. (2/5)”
“Fun place for a quick outing. Not an indictment on this particular location but just the brand, I personally wish there were more holes for the table top golf. That was way more fun for me personally as opposed to the mini golf. Oh and customer service was welcoming and friendly.”
“Taco Bell serves flavorful fast food with quick service, a casual atmosphere, and affordable prices, creating a convenient and satisfying dining experience. They offer exclusive orders on their apps, very convenient for pick up!”
