Tapas Restaurants near Cupertino, CA

“Great atmosphere for a date night! We ordered the salmon tartare, rose tteokbokki, and kfc cauliflower for appetizers. All of them were great but I was most impressed by the tteokbokki!We followed with the short ribs and the basque cheesecake dessert. They were good but the appetizers were more impressive. I was also disappointed that they no longer did the sweet potato chiffon cake :(“

“Amazing! One of the best restaurants in Cupertino“

“For 3 yrs always stay at Aloft it’s like my second home , the ambiance is very nice, front desk clerk are polite and friendly , the bar , waiting area , restaurant and the swimming pool are very nice , the rooms are big, and parking area“

“I ate dinner with a buddy of mine last night he had never been there. He was thoroughly impressed with the food, the wine choices, and the service. The whole experience was fantastic and we had a very enjoyable time.  as always I would recommend this restaurant highly to anybody that wants a fantastic dining experience. “

“Hector and Angie are the best. Their tapas are unique and delicious. Love the indurain skewers , shishito peppers and authentic jamon and Queso. Little known secret is their wagyu ribeye is the very best steak in the Bay Area. Perfectly flavoured and prepared. And the selection of Albariño , Rioja and Jerez sherry. Our favourite go to place in the south bay. Much better food than other top tier restaurants in Los Gatos and saratoga. With much better value. Our favorite.“

“What a cute little spot in downtown! Stopped here for a girls night catch up and they had the perfect little room with a couch and fire for an intimate vibe. The ambiance is so perfect and cozy for a more relaxed night out. The bartenders were so nice and helpful when ordering. The food was pretty straight to the point but yummy so I can't complain. The viognier was crisp but I definitely enjoyed the Bella Montagna Sav Blanc more. I would definitely come back here for a date night!“

“This is my second time here and their quality of food is consistently good ! We ordered family style course meal again, but every dish was different except their famous corn bread (best corn bread you will have!) I love how the chef is very creative and put a lot of effort to each dish using seasonal ingredients. I'm from Japan and grew up eating many seafood (raw & cooked), so very picky, but i couldn't find any dish that wasn't good. For the amount & quality of food they serve, I highly recommend getting their course meal! If you've been to omakase, or Michelin restaurants etc, you know it is worth the price! The service was very friendly and attentive although we were only party who sit outside. I will come back again!“

“Best cocktail bar in the South Bay!“

“delicious! lots of vegetarian options!“

“omg amazing food and service“

“great customer service, very polite and attentive. ありがとございます！“

“This spot is so good! It's open until midnight as well. I got their CC Chicken Dupbop bowl to go and the portions were huge! I like that you can choose a rice option in which I got the Kimchi rice similar to Korean fried rice. Food was very good, chicken was sweet and spicy, and had the right amount of crunch. The interior was also very nice, it had a lot of Kpop vibes. It was also quite lively at nice. The staff were super friendly and very helpful! I'll definitely be coming back soon.“

“Good ambience, great food. Loved the family vibe. Feels like eating in a cozy eatery in Osaka.“

“Goodtime bar is all the things an establishment should be. Knowledgeable staff, amazing selection and everything is served with a real sense of pride and love. The small bites and charcuterie is next level perfection, the owner and staff love what they do and greet you with a smile.“

“The location is nice and the ambiance is great. It's a good spot for dates. I also attended a book club event hosted by Books Inc next door, where other readers met up, so it was also nice for that. It's worth noting though that the menu is a bit overpriced and the food is so-so. Plenty of wine options, but not so many great choices for table-sharing bites. Service is 10/10.“

“Tanto is one of few actual authentic Japanese restaurants that exists around the Santa Clara county. The line speaks for itself - a traditional wait list where you write your name down and wait for your name to be called. I suggest asking for an estimate and maybe grabbing a drink somewhere nearby as the waiting section is very tiny. We waited about an hour and a half or so. Food was super yummy! We got the fried rice balls, duck (melts in your mouth), beef tongue (nice and zesty), sashimi platter, jalapeño poppers, and clams. Service was honestly not as friendly or inviting but they were near closing I suppose so they must've been tired. Ambiance is definitely way more casual and super packed/loud! Next time I'd try coming on a weekday and see if service and quality improves!“

“Good selection of craft beers, wine, and small plates. Food was tasty and service was great! Highly recommended!“

“I stopped in here a week ago with friends for a glass of wine and some small bites before dinner. The staff was really friendly and we received great service! There were only two ladies working and the place was packed but they were able to still manage the crowd and you weren't left feeling forgotten. The food was really good and you get a lot, so much that we didn't need dinner after having the charcuterie board they prepared and we also had the pretzel knots which were delicious with the mustard sauce. They have a good selection of wine and beer. We will definitely go back to sample the other items they have to offer. It's a cute place downtown Willow Glen!!“

“Stumbled upon and had lunch at this little gem in Los Gatos. The crew and chef listened to my food mood and suggested and prepared a delicious and beautiful artichoke, caper flatbread, paired with the pickle plate! OMG super yummy!!Their complimentary olive oil and vinegar tasting room and wine bar, where they made me a sparkly virgin cocktail, is all about friendly, cozy, good vibes.Very chill and comfortable and I hear they also host private parties! I will definitely be back to sit out back! Oh yeah, and they’re also remote-work friendly, offering WiFi!Taking home a couple bottles, some guava jam and a full and happy belly!! Winning!!!“

“Yummy, creative food! Only thing I didn’t like - we had reservations for the patio at 8:30 PM. When we got there they told us that they stopped seating outside. We had initially opted for the patio, because we knew that it was pretty loud inside and we wanted to talk (my friend and I). Begrudgingly we accepted the table indoors. Shortly before we left, around 9:45 - they started seating people on the patio. I felt not taken seriously, to be honest.“

“The food was wonderful! Taylor (I believe that was his name) was the best server and knew so much about the wine list. He said he created the wine list and his recommendations were right on point. If you are in Los Gatos-, don’t pass this one up!“

“Lovely staff, great cider and yummy food❤️“

“They comped me the braised pork bowl and an appetizer , so props to them for making the effort to make up for it . I have some feedback for them , I think they could improve their dish by filling out the bowl more so it looks less sad . The meat can be sliced thinner and spread out in a fan shape . Add some cheap veggie fillers like bak choy and pickles . The tofu slice thinner and spread out like a fan . This will improve the presentation of the food without increasing the cost. The pickles will add color like yellow or reds . You might need to get meat that is cooked as a large piece instead of cubes or even just get different cuts of meat since pork belly is an expensive cut . Look at pictures of ramen to get ideas for food presentation . Good luck , the restaurant business is tough and it's a recession now .“

“Excelente ambiente, comida deliciosa y personal súper amable“

“Darla Cafe is one of the best Asian-Fusion brunch spots I’ve been to in the Bay Area. My favorite was Aina in SF if the OG foodies remember it. Darla may be my new favorite for Asian-fusion brunch.Their loco moco is a good find and one that I like outside of Hawaii. The matcha pancakes and French toast were made perfectly. Plating is impressive here. The drinks are solid— the yok lor coffee woke me up for the day. I can tell they took care and gave high attention to detail in crafting their menu and flavors here.The inside has a clean aesthetic look and there is outdoor patio seating perfect for the spring time. There is a family feel from the staff.Darla Cafe is near Hakone Gardens. Highly recommend a visit!Ordered:Loco Moco #1Darla’s French ToastRose berry lemonadeYok Lor coffeeMatcha pancakes“

“Great wines, tapas and paella.“

“Very authentic flavors, reminded me of the times I ate at the ryoutei style restaurants in Japan! サーモンハラスの塩焼き - Grilled salmon belly 生うどん - Fresh udon noodle soup ユズ香る茶碗蒸し - Egg custard with yuzu with crab sauce on top イイダコの唐揚げ - Deep fried mini octopus“

“Aloft Sunnyvale on its own is good enough value for money spent. However, what truly stood out was the customer ser ice of its front desk. Shoutout to Michelle for helping me out a ton when I was trying to extend my stay. No excuses were made and she found a way to get it done even under difficult circumstances. Roy was also great with the room upgrade when he saw that I had brought a friend and might have needed a bigger bed. 10/10 Customer Service!“

“Expected dishes to be more expensive.Rice balls and fusion pizza were very crispy, rice balls had strong butter flavor, if you like that this is very good, 2 for $11.Cold udon was chewy, $20.Pizza was thin and crispy, strong ham taste with noticeable crab flavor. Not sure if that flavor combo works for me.Yellowtail carpaccio wasn't cold enough, fish was nice enough, but best part was the slightly sour sauce. Not worth its price imo.Daikin salad $11 refreshing, although a bit too salty.“

““I had an amazing experience the other day. You’ve got to try the Octopus Carpaccio if you're into seafood—it’s incredibly tender and packed with flavor. And don’t skip the Bread & “Butter”; it’s a game-changer with its whipped bone marrow spread over warm, crusty sourdough. Absolutely delicious!I also tried the Cup of Gold cocktail while I was there. It’s a fantastic mix of bourbon infused with golden raisins, Madeira, honey, and just a hint of celery bitters, creating a unique, smooth flavor that’s both sweet and subtly earthy.Sitting on their rooftop, enjoying these incredible dishes and drinks, really made my day. The vibe up there is just so cool and laid-back—it's the perfect place to unwind and soak in the views over Palo Alto. Whether you’re looking for great food, tasty drinks, or just a chill spot to hang out, President’s Terrace is definitely worth a visit.”“

“I love Kaita! Food that has the authentic Japanese home cooking taste!“

“Katsu curry rice tastes delicious. Plenty of pork meat on the rice!! Highly recommended“

“Lovely and so much fun! Friends and I came in for our bdays brunch. The service, food, drinks and the atmosphere were top tier! The group do what they can to make your day the best experience you can have! We had a fantastic time!! ??? chef’s kiss!“

“Good food will come back…“

“Stopped in for a glass of wine and a quick bite yesterday. The service was fantastic and everyone was really friendly and very informative about the wines they serve. We ordered the stuffed mushrooms and trio of bruschetta. Everything was really good! They have bands that play couple nights a week so it can be a bit loud inside but it's a festive environment. They are more on the pricey side with glasses of wine costing anywhere from 22.00 to 50.00! It might be better to just a bottle at that price!“

“Good place to taste good Spanish dishes and good service.“

“Excellent spicy miso broth, not too spicy, but enough to warm you up by the end of the bowl. There are a lot of options including half noodles.“

“Great taste of Spanish cuisine“

“Fresh food and great customer service. Try the catering service, they were a hit at my event! Thanks to Burritto Express!“

“We celebrated the birthdays of our friends last night. We had a great time! The service and food were excellent! The Paella was so scrumptious! Thank you so much to all the staff and especially to Paula for accommodating and made some adjustments to the food so I can eat most of it cause I have food allergies. Bravo guys!“

“Located within Valencia hotel, it’s a little hidden. It’s on the 3rd floor across the hotel reception, so just take the elevator up. Tastefully decorated with live music playing, this place is a hidden gem. We loved the Sea Bass, the seafood paella and the roasted cauliflower. Must try in the dessert is the “

“My friends and I came here a few days ago after work to just chill and talk. We were taken care of by these nice ahjummas, they were sweet and checked on us. My friends sang me happy birthday and they came and gave us bowls of fruits, which surprised me! They were so sweet, I almost cried their food is always great but the ahjumma who gave us the fruits made my night amazing!“

“By far was this is the best Mexican food I've ever had. A bit on the pricey side, but well worth it!“

“Great food and very friendly staff. Thank you.“

“Great food with perfect ambiance. After traveling for the whole day, having a nice dinner with a great glass of wine was its all about. Friendly staff and delicious food. Highly recommend.“
