Food here was really tasty, we tried a few different slices, the truffle mushroom was my favorite, with the veggie in second. The lemon drop with basil oil - one of the best lemon drops I've been had. A delightful surprise after being treated poorly by the host taking our order at the counter. Overall pizza crust is deliaciois and crispy, ingredients seem fresh and the drinks are amazing, just don't expect great customer service at the counter.

Worst bartender/waitress on February 17 before the Sharks game. Since we had to pay the standard service fee there was no way to let her know how bad she was by not tipping her. On top of that she did not provide a bill so we could see there was service charge added. We had to ask and that seemed to be annoying to her. I'm going to say that's the game she plays. Don't give them a bill, tell them "you're good" as she did with us so we'll leave a cash tip. San Jose is just encouraging poor service and the restaurants should stop doing this to it's customers. The food was great but I have such a bad taste in my mouth:) I would never want to go back.

Was craving pizza this past weekend, and the the salty slice of Bibo's spicy italian hit the spot. Not a lot of cheese but they stay true to their brand, and I appreciate that they're consistent and reliable in their product, at least each time I've had Bibo's NY style pizza. Good sized chunks of savory italian meats, thin and crispy crust, delish! The employee who helped me was very friendly and helpful. And though I took my order to go, there was plenty of seating available at the Littlest Little Italy. Birre by Pour Decisions and Ancora Vino by Enoteca La Storia both offer drinks that go well with the pizza so if you're dining in, you have options.

Hidden gem!!! I'm torn to give accolades to this great place because it was super chill and underrated. We went for Super Bowl and it was perfect. Awesome food, good environment for the kids, chill enough for conversation and super friendly service!! You wouldn't know it is as big as it is! Come check it out and support local awesomeness!!

I tried the place yesterday the food was decent but not the best. The Service was really good very friendly staff. As we were waiting for our food we did notice a hostess getting very poorly treated not sure if the guy was owner or manager running the place but he was being very condescending and cocky yelling at this girl i felt bad for her we got our food as we were eating and conversating we started to hear some Ruckus and commotion yelling and shouting by the same guy. Now my blood was boiling this second time he was yelling and shouting at a cook calling him a pendejo which in English translates to he is stupid not sure what error the cook might have made but it does not Justify such a nasty behavior and it does not give him the right to treat his staff the way that he was treating those two individuals we are all human and are bound to make mistakes that is how you learn and grow in a career and just in general anyway the way this man was behaving was so unprofessional so unethical continuing to curse then yell racial slurs at the cook the guy ended up walking out not sure if he got fired but this is what made me so disappointed and angry and just disgusted with this establishment. I felt so uncomfortable and I'm not a confrontational person and was debating whether I should speak on my experience and write this review but I have morals and it's the right thing to do to speak up that way people know what type of person they are going to be dealing with. We will not be returning to this restaurant as we do not condone this behavior if I could give a negative star I would I will be sharing my experience to my social media platforms as well. Because this is harassment to the employees and because of humans like this people fall into depression and it can lead to them harming themselves or others.

Pros: The pizza is pretty good. Cons: Where do I start? The place is divided into two spaces. The left side has free games for kids which is nice. And the venting is better there. The right side is a touch nicer but the venting is garbage. You smell like you worked a double shift at the french fry machine when you leave. It's almost hard to breathe in there. The other con is the staff. They have the personality of dry wall. Really. I went to the bar and the lady didn't say hi or just said wait I'll be right there. Then walked past me and around to the other side and said what do you want? I ignored her terrible customer service and asked to try the seltzer. And she said you just want to try it? I sad no I want to try it so I can buy a glass. Strike 1. Strike 2 are the servers. The one guy dropped off our arancini on ricotta with no serving spoon. We asked for one and he was surprised. Also it's weird textured dish with that combo. Then he dropped off pizzas and we had to ask for cheese and pepper. Just clueless. Then another server came by and said you all want your menus? We need them. To which we replied the server never took them. We don't need them anymore. And rolled her eyes. I get why this place has such low stars which is too bad because it has such great potential.

Pizza slices were cold, Italian beef sandwich (beef way to thick). Service is hard to figure out, how do you order where do you go??? On the positive side the wine is great.

New year, new wine bar. I have to say, when my friends mentioned wanting to go to Bibo's Little Italy, I was assuming it was the Pizza shop off of Curtner. (My friend ended up driving there by mistake). It was a relief when we found ourselves in Downtown San Jose and that too in a wine bar. We ordered the Truffle Mushroom Pizza Pie ($36.95) which gave us a total of 8 large slices. This was my favorite off of the menu. There was so much flavor and somehow the green scallions worked on top for an added crunch. We ordered 2 bottles of wine for the table which were great. Midway, we ordered a 3-piece meat/charcuterie for $15.95. I opted for only soppressata since I love salami. I was so disappointed to see a total of 6 slices of meat, an empty tray, and 3 tiny dollops of jam and mustard. Where are the olives, pickles, dried fruit? I reviewed Yelp photos to see a good mix but I suppose those are old photos? This was a bummer. No one should be offering up 2 slices of meat as a portion and that too for $15.95. I also asked if we could mix meats and cheeses but were told they can only do the $59.95 charcuterie board which no one wanted. We all ended up ordering scoops of the gelato at the end. The scoops were excessively frozen but after they sat a little, they were very creamy. The chocolate and strawberry were delightful. All in all, this spot has so much potential. I do foresee myself coming back but being limited to solely the wine and pizza. I think they need to better their service for charcuterie because I would be all over it. Cheers.
Food was nothing special and overpriced. Not a winning combination. Parking is not easily available either.

Stop by before it concert. I had a Caesar salad with chicken, fantastic and a double vodka. Definitely recommend this place and the staff was excellent!!

Had such an amazing time at Bibos this sunday - they were packed but that did not stop them for giving us the best service. We got a pepperoni pizza, which was delicious on its own, but the real show stopper was this charcuterie board (i cant remember the name). It was perfect for the 4 of us and we've all been raving about it all week. Its also got a bunch of TVs for game days, a full cocktail bar, a Chicago sandwich stand, and a wine store. Lots of outdoor seating and indoor seating and its seat yourself!

Great place to have a get together. We've been here a few times to watch football or just do some wine tasting. It's great here because they have everything in one location. Come for the wine, fresh pizzas, and charcuteries.

If you love a thin crusted pizza with lots of flavor and enjoy vino than this is where you will want to dine in "Little Italy " in San Jose.
