Since the day this place opened. It has been a delight. Definitely on the list of some of the best happy hour in downtown San Jose. Consistency is king and with this spot consistency is on point. Everything from the sticky ribs to their warm burrata cheese, the food is great. I understand there. Chef is very talented and is indeed keeping the bar high. Happy hour drinks are a good deal, and if you get there early enough, you can find a seat at the bar or outside on the covered patio. I’m glad they’ve survived and are still doing great things.

I came here with several coworkers on a weekday evening and sat outside. It wasn’t crowded at all. The service was excellent and the food was delicious. The menu options are limited but I think you can get creative with it. I would like to return for drinks someday.

Came here on a Sunday and thought that it was not only a spacious open and welcoming place but had amazing options. Taking Mexican dishes and giving them an American twist with the same elevated flavors. Ordered the morning pizza and the chilaquiles with Mole sauce and it was delicious. My friend and I shared both dishes, that are large and very reasonably priced. Definitely enjoyed the ambiance, reasonably price and portions sizes.

Food was okay. I’m disappointed in the quality. I used to come here nearly every week. The oysters were flavorless. The ribs… What happened?!? I used to order 2-3 servings if these to take home. The pork belly was disappointing. The burrata and beet salad were the best part. Chicken wings were cooked perfectly. I enjoyed the smokey chili rub.

Come to find out this establishment put a ban on my ID without explanation, rarely frequented this establishment and never been removed or had issues. The description was something outlandish and of a situation that didn’t happen to me so maybe a mixup, talked to the manager/owner who had no proof and refused to look into the situation or help to resolve it. I’ve ask for video camera footage or something since this didn’t happen to me but they had a detailed description and he brushed it off as if it was comical They don’t answer phones and don’t have an email. Legal action looks like it’s in my future with this place

If I could leave zero stars I would. If you are a person of color, and possibly darker than the color tan, I wouldn’t recommend going.

Very disappointed with the food. Don’t order chicken sandwich, came in dry and cold. Later when I went to the bathroom I could see in their open kitchen that chicken was precooked and just placed on a grill to reheat… Which transfers to the quality and taste. This is unacceptable for that price.

We went on a Sunday morning with my 4, year old. The waitress was suppppeerr nice and the food was a so good. A little pricey but honestly just based off of the way they treated my kid it was super worth it.

So this review is more of a critique than anything. I use to come here a lot precovid. I went yesterday for brunch, and was looking forward to the French toast. But i was so disappointed!!!!!! The French toast was blanketed with an entire layer of a very sweet cream sauce and some nuts. You couldn’t even see the toast. After taking all the sauce off I ate some of the toast and thought it was pretty tasty. But as far as presentation goes, this plate looks lazy. French toast soup is not appetizing to anyone. My suggestion is, French toast with the cream sauce drizzled with some bananas. I really don’t think the nuts where necessary either. Again I do recommend this place because the environment is great. But this dish personally just needs a little change. Tasty toast, not a tasty dish!!
