Little India Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.2 (887) • $$

"We've been ordering from here for over 5 years now. They changed ownership somewhat recently and it's mostly still the same.Food is still great (we mostly order curries) and haven't really noticed a drop off in quality, maybe a slight one. Their butter chicken is excellent (as someone who loves butter chicken).We've never dined in (always pickup) and the interior is a bit dated and the tables are pretty basic, but I'd imagine most of their business is takeout orders.Staff is always friendly and attentive when picking up as well.They often have deals or discounts too. Regularly you can get a discount on DoorDash or their site ordering system. Sometimes during non peak offers they will offer buy one get one free of some items too."

Bajis Cafe

★★★★☆ 4 (929) • $$

"Had the pleasure to try this place after touring the Google Visitor Experience Cafe! It's about a 6 minute drive from there. Lots of parking spots. We arrived around 12:30 pm and we were sat immediately. Not that many people at first, but it was packed when we left. A homey intimate diner with personality and class. There was a miscommunication with my order because I ordered the chicken fried steak entree but my waiter interpreted it as the side order. Not much a problem but I waited about 10 more minutes until my full order was fulfilled with the accompanying sides of French roll, cole slaw, and French fries. It was very filling that's for sure. The gravy on the steak wasn't gritty but had a smooth texture and creamy savory taste that made the meat easier to chew on and enhanced the flavor. The cole slaw was okay since I wished it had more seasoning. The French fries were a bit dry so I had to season it with lots of salt and pepper. The French roll was toasted to perfection with a good amount of butter on top. Great brunch/breakfast spot in Mountain View!"

Cafe San Jose

★★★★☆ 4 (851) • $$

"I arrived on a Tuesday morning around 8:30. Only one other table. It has a Diner feel and is located in a strip mall. staff was super welcoming. I ordered an Apple chicken with tater tots. I def recommend if you are in the area."

Garden Deli Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.4 (682) • $$

"This is a great place to stop by to pick up lunch before you hit the beach. The sandwiches are to die for using high quality ingredients. Everything from the bread to all of the fixings were really good. I highly recommend if you're looking for a good place to stop by for lunch or grab takeout."

Fleur de Cocoa

★★★★☆ 4.2 (720) • $$

"Expensive, but out-of-this-world delicious pastries, cakes, and of course coffee.Nice outdoor seating, cheerful service."

Esther's Kitchen & Beer Garden

★★★★☆ 3.8 (838) • $$

"My friend Jinsol and I came to Esther's Kitchen for some brunch a number of years ago. She was Korean and we had Korean food places closer to where we both lived in Albany. Trying to find a place for one of my ethnicities, I found Esther's Kitchen as a place offering German food. Inquiring if she would be interested in trying it out, she said yes, so we tried it out.On our visit, she was particularly spellbound by the bakery offerings, including bread, that was rapidly dwindling with a long line of eager customers snatching it all up. We opted for in-restaurant dining, each going with a plate meal. My order was a Bavarian breakfast (yes I even have ancestors who hailed from Bavaria), which consisted of poached sausages (weisswurst), pretzel, sweet mustard, and radish. I found the items tasty and well-executed, enjoying the adventure of figuring out what order to eat the items in/how to eat the items. She thought it was different, in a good way. Workers were professional and quick in our interactions."

Le Creme

★★★★☆ 4.1 (612) • $

"We ordered the beignets with condensed milk and one vanilla bean Malasada and it was soo delicious ! It did take about 10 mins to get but the owner/workers were very nice. It's a small cafe with a couple tables inside and a couple tables outside. Would definitely recommend trying this cafe out, especially the malasadas !"

Bijan Bakery & Cafe

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (985) • $

"This is my go to spot for a little post dinner dessert. They have the best cakes! The mango mousse and pistachio mousse is SO good. My family and I love ordering one of their mousse's and enjoying it after dinner. It has the perfect touch of sweetness without being overwhelmingly sweet. They sell them by the slice then have two other options for a full sized cake. Can't recommend it enough!"

Amy's Grill & Cafe

★★★★☆ 4 (630) • $$

"Decided to try a new breakfast spot and found Amy's Grill on Yelp. It's in the same shopping center as Fitness 19, Sonic, and Grocery Outlet. There's plenty of parking available since it's in a big shopping center. They have about 5-7 tables outside in their patio and about 6-8 tables inside the small restaurant. I went on a Saturday morning around 10 am and was greeted and seated instantly. I got the Veggie Omelette with Cheese which comes with bell peppers, onions, spinach, and mushrooms. It comes with hash browns or hot fries which are like country potatoes and toast. I got the hash browns and after tasting the hot fries I wish I would've ordered those as they had lemon pepper seasoning and were really crispy. The omelette plate was a perfect serving for myself, but compared to other restaurants it was smaller so if you are super hungry it might not be enough. I did wish they had hot sauce besides tapatío that paired with the omelette to give it a bit more taste. My sister-in-law liked her strawberry banana waffle which looked delicious. The staff were really nice and attentive the entire time and the food arrived pretty fast. If you want a normal breakfast I would recommend Amy's. On a beautiful day it would be nice to sit outside and enjoy breakfast. I will definitely be returning in the future and would recommend to friends and family's. Check them out!"

La Baguette

★★★★☆ 3.5 (801) • $$

"My family and I were walking around Stanford Shopping Center one weekend morning when my mom wanted a snack. My family loves pastries and we saw a line for La Baguette, so we went inside to see for ourselves. The inside of the store is too compact for seating, but you will see a good amount of tables, chairs, and umbrellas just outside the store in the middle of the large walking space. La Baguette had two large displays, one with cakes and cake slices, another with the baked goods and a few sandwiches. We paid at the counter and asked for our croissants to be heated, so we were given a number and instructed to wait outside for our order to be called. We bought two croissants, one plain and one filled with ham and cheese. Both were ginormous and thus perfect to split among four people. The staff conveniently split them in half without us asking. They were sooooo crispy and flaky that they're impossible to eat without getting crumbs all over. The texture inside was really soft, not the generally dense texture my average croissants are from all the butter. We had a good amount of ham and cheese in ours, and you get a thin layer of cheese crust on top of the croissant itself. Overall, La Baguette is a great pit stop for our morning in the area. I thought about getting the sandwiches, but they looked heavy on the bread and light on the filling. I will probably stick to their croissants!"

Cafe De Casa

★★★★☆ 4.4 (502) • $$

"Unfortunately, I've had two unpleasant experiences in recent months at Casa de Casa. Both times resulted in extreme food poisoning, (once in September where me and two friends all experienced it) and again just last Friday after consuming an acai bowl. I was bed ridden for 24 hours.It's worth noting that I called to inform the manager after this most recent time and she was incredibly kind and apologetic when I reached out. She offered to cover medical costs and is sending the affected food for testing. She also mentioned that around 15 people contacted them in September with similar complaints on the acai bowl which is sourced from Brazil and had a high count of something that caused the illness when they ran testing. I did not ask for a refund or for bills to be paid but her honestly and her very caring response is why I offer 2 stars instead of 1.While I sincerely appreciated the manager's response, the recurring issues are so concerning that I will never return. I was quite disappointed, as I had previously enjoyed the food and atmosphere. However, the health concerns outweigh the positive aspects.I hope Casa de Casa can address these problems promptly to ensure the safety of their customers. They seem to be very busy and prior to my past two visits I had not gotten sick and enjoyed my meals there."

Breaktime Tea

★★★★☆ 3.8 (671) • $

"This is our second time at this location.We have ordered chicken nibblers on rice. The dish is amazing. The chickens are covered with sauces, the chicken tenders are crunchy and very well cooked. It comes with sticky rice and sea weed salad.Overall a must have at this location. Definitely will try again."

The Breeze Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.1 (565) • $$

"- monkey waffles: 3.5/5 - so yummy, can't go wrong with nutella, banana, waffles, and whip cream but not anything special- breeze benedict: 4.5/5 - i was craving eggs benedict but i was also craving steak and eggs and this had tritip in it!! it was perfect and i would definitely come back here to try their other eggs benedict- iced cookie butter latte: 5/5 - i'm craving this right now as i'm typing this the biscoff cookie was so good dipped in the whip cream- strawberry mimosa: 3/5 - pretty good, but i think i shouldve listened to other reviews and got the rose gold onei had to ask the guys working at the front for our server's name because she was busy when we left, but her name was maribelle (i think that's how you spell it) and she was extremely kind and friendly! she was very attentive and even got us extra syrup/sugar for our drink bc my gf thought it wasn't sweet enough haha. give her a raise!!the interior was so adorable and very trendy, it was cozy and pretty at the same time! when i sat down in the booth i was a little startled at first because the seats were sooo cushioned and comfortable. should definitely give this spot a try, i'm surprised it's not as big as the breakfast club or bills cafe (unless it is then idk)"

High Tide Restaurant Cafe and Creperie

★★★★☆ 3.6 (691) • $$

"This cafe is a great choice for me simply because of all of the options. If you feel like breakfast, lunch, or dinner, they got it covered. The breakfast options are great, comes in large portions, and is cooked well. There is a back patio to sit in, an inside area, and a few tables outside in front, so there is almost always a place to sit. It gets a little spotty when it comes to service. You take a number to your table and then they bring the food and drinks to you. With this style of service you can easily get forgotten. They may never come refill your water, and used tables can get left unwiped or uncleaned. There are bussing tubs out back, so sometimes customers will put their own dishes in those tubs. So essentially we bus our own tables, and have to ask for refills, or more napkins, or anything like that. They're not really smiley welcoming staff, which is kind of a bummer since it's essentially a brunch place (yes they service champagne). The prices are also high, so I would like to get more table service since we're paying high prices like a place that has waiters. They're dependable and the food is good. I even ordered a cappuccino and it was excellent. It does is purpose, but still has room for improvement."

Boba Drive

★★★★☆ 4 (506) • $

"why is the first thing on your menu something that doesn't even have tea in it????!?!?!I ordered a Brown sugar Boba, and was so sad when I realized that what I had ordered was basically just caramel flavored milk with Boba in it. I don't understand who would order this on purpose? They should on the menu explicitly state that it does not have tea in it or just make it a secondary option based on a milk tea. Disgustingly sweet and childish drink"

La Lune Sucree

★★★★☆ 3.7 (582) • $$

"This place is under new management and from what I'd been able to try today, I'll be coming back regularly.Their tomato soup was a stand out. It wasn't overpowered by cream or other flavors. Smooth texture, great flavor and I just wish I'd ordered a grilled cheese to go with it.The Brie & Honey Ham on a croisant was very good as well. All of the ingredients went well together and blended into the perfect bite till the sandwich was gone.There's a selection of locally made sodas that didn't have all kinds of weird ingredients. I was able to try the rootbeer and cherry/tarragon flavors and I wasn't disappointed.Local hard ciders are also available if you are looking to get a little tipsy during lunch."

Perfect Pour Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.4 (404) • $

"My husband & I's favorite cafe in Sharp Park! We are frequent visitors for coffee, food, and pastries. They have delicious freshly made food for breakfast and lunch and the pastries are always a hit. I've asked for small customizations for food before and they are able to do so which is really appreciated. They are welcoming to us and even welcoming to our doggy, Frito (you can get a fancy pup cup with a dog treat) They also highlight local artists and vendors which I love and appreciate it. A must visit for all!"

Bistro Maxine

★★★★☆ 3.6 (574) • $$

"Great place to come after a visit at Stanford. I would highly recommend this place for the best chai you have ever had! Also the crepes are delicious and good size! You have to try the savory crepes but don't forget the sweet for dessert! We will definitely make this a regular spot for breakfast or lunch!"

Los Gatos Coffee Roasting Company

★★★★☆ 3.9 (466) • $$

"really like this place! It's one of my friend's and my favorite spots to grab coffee and stroll through Los Gatos' beautiful old downtown. The coffee is amazing, and the staff is very friendly. They offer a great variety of coffee options.Yesterday, for the first time, we dined in. I ordered the mushroom quiche, but unfortunately, it was dry and tasted like it had been made a couple of days ago, which was disappointing. Next time, I'll try something else to compare.If you plan to sit inside, keep in mind that the space can be a bit noisy and not the most comfortable for a long stay. However, I'll definitely keep coming back for my regular oat milk or almond milk latte!"

Purple Onion Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.7 (510) • $$

"I'm so excited because they have my gluten-free lemon bars again! They didn't have them in December when I was here last. The guys who work here now are sooooo much nicer than the girl who used to work here. I love their green detox vegetable soup. I'm having it for breakfast."

Hops & Beans Cafe

★★★★★ 4.5 (324) • $

"Absolutely great! Went on a rainy day, and the ambiance felt straight out of a movie. Perfect place to grab a coffee and read a book. However, it did get quite full after a while. We went for breakfast, and one downside: ordering food was a little confusing. They don't have a food menu conveniently placed for you to look at before ordering. We had to wait to reach the cashier to look at the menu at the counter, which held up the line. The wait after ordering wasn't too long, which was nice, and food was brought to our table. We ordered a Cesar Wrap and Chaplin. Both were great and packed with flavor. highly recommend for a nice brunch and cafe spot!"

K's Crepes & Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.8 (442) • $$

"Very good selection of breakfast / brunch menu. All the items are named after European soccer teams. Quantity and item selection is good.Service is good but we were here when it was mostly empty. The ambiance is very casual and feels like a neighborly joint."

Country Inn Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.9 (406) • $$

"Long time customer of Country Inn Cafe and am finally getting around to writing a review :) The restaurant staff are absolutely lovely and the food is good! My fav is the breakfast burrito. My bf is an avid pancake lover and says Country Inn makes the best pancakes he's ever had!"

Cable Car Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.7 (320) • $$

"This is just an old school diner; there isn't a single fancy or modern thing about it. And that's what makes it so perfect! The food is solidly good; the service is efficient, friendly, and motherly without being intrusive; and the prices are exactly what you'd expect. I'm so glad this place exists!"

Brothers Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.4 (210) • $$

"Here at Brothers Cafe, you have to order first and then seat yourself anywhere you'd like. I went on a Monday morning and it was fairly busy (every other table was filled and there was a line) but the drinks and food came out pretty quickly! I ordered the country fried steak and it was cooked perfectly. Unlike other restaurants, the amount of gravy on top was the perfect ratio for each bite as it was still crunchy and warm, rather than soggy and drenched. I asked for fried over easy eggs but they came out a bit more on the medium side, however, it was still pretty good. The hashbrown was fluffy yet super crispy at the same time. I enjoyed eating it with ketchup or with a piece of the eggs to balance out the textures. I also ordered the freshly squeezed orange juice and had no regrets - absolutely refreshing. My friend ordered the banana foster and she said it was good and that she really enjoyed the cinnamon butter they added."

Manresa Bread

★★★★☆ 3.8 (262) • $$

"This cute little bakery shop located on State Street in Downtown Las Altos makes the best monkey bread in the entire Bay Area! What is monkey bread you ask? Imagine a kouign amann on steroids! More buttery. More sugary. It's crispy and flaky on the outside and moist and soft on the inside. Each piece of the monkey bread breaks off into little small bite sized nuggets covered in the perfect mix of caramelized butter and sugar. Pop one in your mouth and be ready to be in pastry heaven. If you're coming on a weekend, be sure to show up early as they sell out quickly!"

RĀW Superfood Café - San Jose

★★★★★ 4.5 (178) • $$

"My first time at RAW Superfood Cafe and it did not disappoint! The decor is really cute and there is lots of natural light. My daughter used the kiosk to place our order. She ordered the koji salami sandwich us to share and 2 magic matcha drinks. The sandwich was a good portion to share and drinks were yummy. Service was fast and friendly. I would definitely come back or visit another location closer to home :)"

Purple Onion Cafe

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (309) • $$

"I come here often--so much that I've even DoorDashed it, despite it being within walking distance of my house! I usually like to take photos of my food, but for some reason, I always forget. Still, I couldn't pass up the chance to write a review because I love the variety of food they offer, no matter what I'm in the mood for.Their quiches are incredible and come with a choice of soup--I'm especially a fan of the Detox soup, which I enjoy both as a side and a full serving. Their overnight oats are the best I've ever had. Even though I know the ingredients, I just can't replicate that perfect balance of flavors--it's one of my go-to items.I've also tried their salads and sandwiches, and honestly, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. My only small complaint is that I wish they opened a little earlier, but it just makes me look forward to their food even more. I also appreciate the option for both indoor and outdoor seating--it's such a cozy spot!"

Holy Cannoli

★★★★★ 4.5 (160) • $$

"We contacted Holy Cannoli for catering of a school luncheon event. Jamie, the owner, was great to work with from start to finish. She was able to set up a menu that served all range of guests including vegan and gluten-free. The food was amazingly delicious! We had so many people stop by to ask who had catered the event because they wanted seconds! She was quick to respond to any questions we had and very helpful on the day of the event.I will definitely reach out to Jamie and Holy Cannoli for any future catering event and look forward to stopping by the restaurant to have lunch."

Cafe Big Mug

★★★★☆ 3.9 (205) • $

"Love the coffee, vibes and coziness here. I have been to Big Mug at a different location, and this is pretty similar, but a bit smaller. But at the same time it feels lighter and keeps the same comfy atmosphere here for talks, working over laptop, just enjoying the coffee cup. Parking is available in front of the building. Restroom is quite specious. You do need to keep the receipt to get the password or you can ask. The same goes for the wifi password. The staff was amazing, I really loved talking to barista. I ordered large latte and really loved the cup!"

CoHo Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.7 (207) • $

"Definitely the best matcha cookies I've ever had! I love the music events that CoHo holds and the atmosphere is amazing for studying. Every time I come, the staff is always super sweet and efficient in taking my order :) Great service!"

Groovy Goose Coffee

★★★★☆ 4.3 (144) • $

"A cozy cafe offering sandwiches, pastries, coffee, tea, and smoothies. We ended up getting the disco blush smoothie (peaches, raspberries, strawberries, bananas & orange juice), groovy greens smoothie (mango, spinach, kale, banana, spirulina, and apple juice), the sausage egg and cheese biscuit sandwich, and the hustle sandwich (arugula, fig jam, prosciutto on ciabatta). The smoothies were light and refreshing, the hustle was heavy on the fig jam, which overpowered the other flavors but was still delicious, and I absolutely loved the sausage egg and cheese biscuit, as simple as it was, the breakfast treat satisfying and made with tasty ingredients, even the bread itself was better than expected, light and fluffy, and slightly buttery. Service was more than sufficient, and our order was ready in less than 10 minutes. Also, even though there was a farmers market going on around the corner, we had no problem finding free parking nearby on a Sunday morning."

One Love Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.4 (133) • $$

"Nice atmosphere to have a meal. Ordered coffee and pastry and it was perfect and delicious. Would definitely come and try other foods."

Lutticken's

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (197) • $

"Great vibe and energy throughout the entire resto.. Lots of cozy seating..Fabulous Beer and Wine selection. A fair selection of appetizers and entrees to choose from as well as a kids menu. Thursday's are dedicated to karaoke. Bring your singing voice! Recommend the antipasta plate and the Pot Stickers appetizer. Club house sandwich also really tasty! Super delish served super fast!"

Westlake Coffee Shop

★★★★☆ 3.6 (172) • $$

"We had a really great experience at Westlake Coffee Shop! There were 6 of us and we came near to closing. They told us to take our time and the food was fresh! They were super gracious and friendly. We didn't even think to take pictures until after everything was gone! It was really good food. The pupusa's were authentic El Salvadorian."
