The Hut

I love this place. As a midwest girl, this place brings a little sense of home to California. Its Modernized rustic appeal has such great energy and allows you to relax and have a drink in peace. Plus...the food is amazing!! The tomato soup with grilled cheese is a must. They can make you any drink and their staff is so friendly. I am and will always be a fan of The Hut.

This place was alright! I wish they also had brunch on weekdays since we came on a Friday morning hoping for some yummy breakfast. We ended up doing some shareables and a mimosa - the buffalo cauliflower bites and fries were really tasty and had good flavors. Service was also good and the outdoor seating was cute! Hoping to come back for brunch sometime.

Very underwhelming. For starters, you have to order up front, get your own water, pick up your own drinks at the bar, etc. That's fine by me but it would still be nice to get greeted when I enter as it was my first time and was standing there unsure what to do. If you want BBQ, this is not the place. I think you can see the $19 tri tip sandwich as it speaks for itself. It was the size of my hand. The cocktails were also a joke for $12. I finished it in two sips. I saw other people getting served in actual glasses while ours were in plastic cups, and filled with crush ice. What was that about? The patio closed because of an event so bunch of people were in the small inside with the sun beaming. We had to switch our table three times bc we thought the outside was open and then someone took our table, which was our faults, then the only other available table was in the middle of the bar and register so people were standing in line hovering over us. I personally was not a fan and would not return for all those points mentioned. There is little parking and it's a college crowd with lack of diversity, which is fine I guess. I think I'll go elsewhere next time I'm looking for a BBQ spot. Giving two stars because the wings were alright for the price.

As a Santa Clara University student, I love The Hut! It's perfect for happy hour from 3 PM to 6 PM. Conveniently located next to campus, it offers great indoor and outdoor seating, making it ideal for bringing my dogs. I always enjoy their ciders on tap, but their cocktails, especially the pomegranate mule, are fantastic too. The food is excellent; the new fried pickles are a must-try, and the fries and sandwiches are to die for--definitely worth the price! It's a fun spot to grab a bite and drinks with friends. I cannot recommend this place enough. Plus, it's not just for university students; it attracts a diverse crowd, including many locals, especially in the summer!

Okay I am obsessed with this place.... great tacos at a fair price, INCREDIBLE COLESLAW (I like them sweeter), and they have the skinny crispy fries that are kind of hard of find these days. They're not very busy on weekdays, so it's great if you want a quick bite. Dog friendly as well!

When I was going to SCU, this was more of a dive bar. I love that it is now owned by an alum and he's turned it into a lunch spot. At first when someone suggested the Hut, I was confused because I thought it was still pretty much a bar! It's changed since I graduated (many moons ago). They have good lunch specials. The most popular seems to be sandwich and fries combo. Give this place a try!

During our lunch break at a symposium held at Santa Clara University on Tuesday, July 11, 2023, Joanna, Ray, Dustin, and I stopped by The Hut shortly before 1 PM for some drinks and bites.Located across the street from Lucas Hall, The Hut is a convenient spot for attendees of the university. If you're lucky, you can score free timed street parking in front of Lucas Hall. The venue is about the size of a small cottage with an outdoor covered seating area that appears equal in size as the indoor dining area. Indoor décor is simple with concrete floors, some tables, booths, and counter seating. The place was clean everywhere, including the women's restroom when we were there. My stomach was feeling a bit sensitive on the day of our visit, so, unlike my friends, I passed on alcohol and opted for a glass of iced water and an order of FRIES. We ended up ordering two rounds of everything, including the potato snack that we shared. The FRIES ($5 per order) were served fresh, piping hot, & perfectly crisp, but SALTY. Yes, both servings had too much salt for my taste. Service was fast and friendly.Considering that our annual symposium is held at the same place every year and we haven't been fond of the lunches, we will likely return. I wouldn't drive out specifically to return here, it's just a quick and convenient spot to hit up during recess.

I have not been here since the last remodel some years ago. I went to college nearby (at SCU) a long time ago and this was a dive bar back "in the day." There is a lot more sunlight inside and the interior is very welcoming. No more dollar bills stuck on the ceiling!The waitstaff here are very nice, contrary to what I read in other reviews. Very friendly and let us know when we came in what was still available from the brunch menu. Even though they made an error in our order, they were quick to verify this and fix it. And my wife really enjoyed her grilled chicken burger.Tri-tip sandwich: 3.5/5. A pretty decent sandwich. I actually ordered the pulled port sandwich but was brought this instead. I mentioned to my waiter that there was a mistake. But rather than have them toss this sandwich I took it. The waiter stopped by a few minutes afterwards to make sure that I was happy with it. Not a huge portion, but just the right amount. But next time I will try the pork sandwich.

Went there on a Saturday night after a Santa Clara basketball game, and told my friends who wanted to go to pizza that the barbecue was great... Got there and they're out of ribs? On a Saturday night? And then the weight staff says it's not their fault it's the owner's fault... This is a very disappointing on all fronts

Service was good! The guy that took my order and brought out the food was nice and had a positive attitude. The ambiance was fine, it was crowded but that's to be expected. Didn't love the layout of the restaurant though, because like why did I have to go up to the bar to get a coke? I mean to each their own but like I feel that fountain drinks should be brought to the table. However, my main qualm was the food itself. I got the Caesar salad with trip tip and the salad was soggy, very little dressing, okay ish tri tip, and was just flat out overpriced for $15 a salad. The tri tip was bland and felt like it only had a light salt and pepper rub which wasn't enough. Anyways enough of my rambling, I'd come back here and try something else but just order something that you think will actually have flavor. K, thx, bye.
