“Have lunch with a friend at this restaurant based on a recommendation. The portions of the food are quite good but there is no Wow factor in the taste. Also, note that the mild spicy level of the food may still be a bit too strong for those who are not used to having spicy food. However, as the price of the food is reasonable, this restaurant is definitely worth coming again to explore the other dishes on its menu.”

JX Cuisine 3581 Homestead Rd, Santa Clara Chinese • $$

“Absolutely love this Sichuan restaurant! Every dish we ordered was packed with flavor and perfectly cooked. The Guoba Sanxian (Crispy Rice with Seafood) was amazing — you can even choose the non-spicy version, which is great for people who don’t eat too much spice.

The Stir-Fried Pork Kidney was super fresh and flavorful — tender, a little spicy, and full of that signature Sichuan aroma. And the Spicy Bullfrog Pot was a must-try! So juicy, rich, and addictive that we couldn’t stop eating.

If you love authentic Sichuan food, this place is definitely worth a visit. Great taste, generous portions, and friendly service — 10/10 recommended!”

Puesto Santa Clara 2752 Augustine Dr #110, Santa Clara Mexican • $$

“MONDAY FOOD REVIEW...PUESTO...6/17/24! After leaving California's Great America, we stopped for lunch at Puesto, a Mexican/American restaurant, located at 2752 Augustine Dr., in Santa Clara. This restaurant features Mexican dishes with an American flare infusion! I had their their Shrimp a la Plancha, which is Mexican shrimp, garlic butter, red onions, jalapeños, guajillo chile, avocado, and Tamarindo-chile sauce, and it comes with herb lime rice, black beans, and blue corn tortillas. This was absolutely fabulous!!! It wasn't your typical Mexican dish...the different ingredients they used to create this dish all blended together VERY well!!! If you are looking for a little something different to satisfy your Mexican food craving, and want some added flair, then this is THE restaurant to go to!!! I HIGHLY recommend it!!!! My rating: 10++++”

“Davon was an amazing host! He went over an beyond to help us order and recommended food.
2nd time already we came here and we keep coming back since Davon was so naturally pleasant and phenomenal. He showed caring and concern for us even after eating. He made sure we got our food and drinks. Was a great person to speak with, you would almost have thought he owned the place. Appreciate the love and care he provided.
The 2nd we went we brought more people.
I would say the only complaint was the chairs are a bit uncomfortable to sit in but food was delicious and service was top notch due to Davon and his crew.

Thank you being open so late, our church has now found a great place to fellowship afterwards and know we are being taken care of. I thank God for Davon!!!”

I want to give a huge thank you to Kelly, who was incredibly attentive, kind, and so detailed with everything. She made sure every part of the evening went smoothly and made us feel supported from start to finish. And a big shoutout to our server Ash, who went above and beyond the entire night. They treated my mom like a queen, and it meant so much to all of us.

It’s rare to find service that feels this personal and heartfelt. We left with smiles, full stomachs, and memories my mom will treasure forever.

I highly recommend this place for birthdays, gatherings, or any moment you want to make truly special.”

Baekjeong San Jose 2855 Stevens Creek Blvd #1808, Santa Clara Barbeque • $$$

“We've come to the age where we value quality over quantity when it comes to food; gone are the days of overstuffing ourselves at AYCE locations. As a result, we're always in search of new restaurants where the food really hits the spot and leaves us feeling satisfied. One of my friends recommended Baekjeong, as it was his favorite and go-to kbbq spot in the bay area. I was able to book a same-day reservation for our party of 6, and we ordered 2 large beef combos. The staff cooks the meat for you, and provides around 6 banchans and 2 salad types. Our server was Risa, who was super friendly and attentive, and we felt right at home with her. She kept everything running smoothly and made us feel so welcome. The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly. Since then, many days have passed, but I'll have moments where I think back and crave the food we had at Baekjeong. I'm always looking forward to the next time I can come back.

Additional notes: Free wifi is available. Restaurant is on the exterior of Valley Fair mall. Parking is by the Stevens Creek parking garage with a short walk through the mall; most of the parking directly in front is only for the bank. Entrance is on the first floor, but restaurant is on the second floor with both stairs and elevator access. There usually is a host downstairs at the entrance to admit you, and you wait in the waiting room upstairs. They give a free soda to designated drivers!”

The big plate chicken had noodles at the bottom, soaked up all the juice from the chicken, absolute bomb. The ribs were fatty, and juicy. My personal favorite was the stir fry lamb with naan. Lamb was juicy, seasoned with lots of cumin, and the naan was crispy.

Shawarmaji 2281 The Alameda, Santa Clara Middle Eastern • $

“🌯 The Gold Standard for Authentic Shawarma
If you are looking for the best shawarma in the area, look no further than Shawarmaji. This place serves what I can honestly say is the best shawarma I have had to date. The meat is perfectly seasoned and slow-roasted to a juicy perfection, and the wraps themselves are incredibly hearty and filling. Whether you go for the chicken or the lamb, you are getting a massive portion that satisfies even the biggest appetite. It was so delicious that I found myself ordering a second one to eat before I even left the building—it is genuinely that addictive.

🍯 Fantastic Signature Sauces (That You Can Buy!)
The real secret to their success has to be the sauces. They are absolutely fantastic and elevate the entire meal. Their garlic toum is legendary—thick, creamy, and packed with that bold garlic punch that every shawarma lover craves. They also have a spicy shatta that adds the perfect level of heat without being overwhelming. A major highlight for me was discovering that they actually sell their sauces in-store. Being able to take a jar of that toum home is a game-changer for my own home cooking!

⚡ Exceptional Service and Friendly Staff
Beyond the food, the experience was made even better by the people working there. The staff were really friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in. Even though they were busy, they were quick to cook the food and took the time to offer great suggestions on which wraps and pairings to try. It’s rare to find a spot that balances high-speed service with such a hospitable and helpful attitude. You can tell they really care about the quality of the food and the satisfaction of their customers.

Filling Portions: You definitely get your money's worth here; one wrap is a full meal in itself.

Speedy Cooking: Despite the high quality, they manage to get orders out very quickly.

Pro Tip: Ask for extra pickles—they add a perfect crunch and acidity to the rich meat and sauces.

Authentic Vibes: The flavors stay true to traditional Jordanian-style street food, which is hard to find done this well.

👍 Overall Recommendation
Shawarmaji is a definitive 5-star destination for any food lover. The combination of superior flavor, friendly service, and the ability to buy their amazing sauces makes it a standout. It is the kind of place that you’ll want to visit again and again. If you haven't been yet, make it a priority—you might just end up ordering a second round like I did!”

Last night while at Valley Fair I suddenly felt faint-ish from hunger/lack of food. We were at Men's Macy's to shop for my husband but I had not expected to be there that long. From a distance inside Macy's, I could see the exit to the mall (planning my escape route - just kidding). I knew a onigilly could solve my hangry problem. I actually was prepared to pay approx $10 for one as that was what I recall paying before....but it was surprisingly a good price at around $3.99 (so I ordered two, to give one to the hubs). And then I got a reward to claim so when I added that reward one of my onigilly was credited. That was a nice surprise. Besides the pricing the onigilly was yummy and the seaweed crunchy. I got the tuna. It was a good proportion of rice to tuna. The line wasn't that bad, one person ahead of me. It was at around 8 pm.”

Beijing Restaurant 1460 Halford Ave, Santa Clara Chinese • $$

“I was misled by this restaurant’s name for a long time—I always thought it was a Chinese restaurant. But when I finally came here, I realized it’s actually a Korean one. My husband used to come here often before the pandemic.

Their black bean noodles are delicious, but that’s not really what I want to talk about. What truly stands out isn’t just the food, but the service. In today’s Bay Area, especially among Asian restaurants, it’s rare to encounter genuine service. You often end up tipping for people who simply drop off your food and disappear.

But at Beijing Restaurant, you’ll understand what real service feels like—and you’ll be happy to tip for it. Their servers focus on actually taking care of your needs during the meal, without being intrusive or using those overly scripted lines like, “How’s everything tasting so far?” that interrupt your dining experience. Their Mexican waiter is neat, attentive, and makes you feel genuinely comfortable. The female server, who has apparently been working here since before the pandemic, adds to that sense of familiarity and warmth.

Altogether, it gives the impression of a place with integrity and care—a restaurant that truly values its customers. I’m more than willing to pay for real service, and I’ll definitely be coming back again!”

“TLDR: Pricey but worth it for delicious Korean food. Service can be hit or miss, ambiance varies, but the dishes are flavorful. Favorites include the Kimchi Bossam and Tteokbokki.

I’ll be honest, this place is on the pricey side, but the food is consistently delicious every time I visit. The only downside is I can’t come as often as I’d like since the cost is higher than most Korean spots. Still, it’s worth it, so just a heads-up if you’re planning to come.

The service can be hit or miss. Sometimes attentive, other times you’ll need to flag someone down. The ambiance is usually laid back, though it depends on the day and crowd size.

Here’s what I’ve tried:
Kimchi Bossam (19 or 21) – Hell yes!
Seasoned Raw Crab in Spicy House Sauce (25) – Messy and complicated, but not the main event.
Tteokbokki – Delicious.”

The large buffet was good but many trays were empty and were not refilled. The buffet was split into two halves, left vegetarian, right meat with the center being rice and condiments. Some dishes lacked proper spicing but the dishes were correctly very spicy hot but the wife said they were all a little too hot.. There were no towels dispenser, paper towels, or a garbage can in the bathroom. The soap despenser was broken and in the sink. Very grood waiter staff. It was very crowded and everyone was enjoying their time. I really wanted to try the Tandoori chicken but it was never refilled. They told my wife the restraunt had run out of some items before we sat by a very kind server but we had traveled quite a long distance and wanted to try the restraunt. The music speaker was close to us and the level was too loud, 86db, we put in ear protection.

Meat quality was amazing and the side dishes are amazing, (definitely get the kimchi noodles here)
The only thing better than the food was the service!!! It’s a smaller restaurant so the servers are very attentive and cook the meat perfectly for you every time

Shawarmaji 2281 The Alameda, Santa Clara Middle Eastern • $

“🌯 The Gold Standard for Authentic Shawarma
If you are looking for the best shawarma in the area, look no further than Shawarmaji. This place serves what I can honestly say is the best shawarma I have had to date. The meat is perfectly seasoned and slow-roasted to a juicy perfection, and the wraps themselves are incredibly hearty and filling. Whether you go for the chicken or the lamb, you are getting a massive portion that satisfies even the biggest appetite. It was so delicious that I found myself ordering a second one to eat before I even left the building—it is genuinely that addictive.

🍯 Fantastic Signature Sauces (That You Can Buy!)
The real secret to their success has to be the sauces. They are absolutely fantastic and elevate the entire meal. Their garlic toum is legendary—thick, creamy, and packed with that bold garlic punch that every shawarma lover craves. They also have a spicy shatta that adds the perfect level of heat without being overwhelming. A major highlight for me was discovering that they actually sell their sauces in-store. Being able to take a jar of that toum home is a game-changer for my own home cooking!

⚡ Exceptional Service and Friendly Staff
Beyond the food, the experience was made even better by the people working there. The staff were really friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in. Even though they were busy, they were quick to cook the food and took the time to offer great suggestions on which wraps and pairings to try. It’s rare to find a spot that balances high-speed service with such a hospitable and helpful attitude. You can tell they really care about the quality of the food and the satisfaction of their customers.

Filling Portions: You definitely get your money's worth here; one wrap is a full meal in itself.

Speedy Cooking: Despite the high quality, they manage to get orders out very quickly.

Pro Tip: Ask for extra pickles—they add a perfect crunch and acidity to the rich meat and sauces.

Authentic Vibes: The flavors stay true to traditional Jordanian-style street food, which is hard to find done this well.

👍 Overall Recommendation
Shawarmaji is a definitive 5-star destination for any food lover. The combination of superior flavor, friendly service, and the ability to buy their amazing sauces makes it a standout. It is the kind of place that you’ll want to visit again and again. If you haven't been yet, make it a priority—you might just end up ordering a second round like I did!”

Sulbing 3050 El Camino Real, Santa Clara Ice Cream Shop • $$

“Came here on a weekend with friends and really enjoyed it. Sulbing does authentic Korean snow ice with super fine, milky ice that melts in your mouth—sweet but not heavy. Works great as dessert any time of year.

Green Tea Chocolate Sulbing was a highlight. The matcha is more bitter and fragrant (not overly sweet), paired with chocolate cake and milk ice—very balanced and easy to keep eating.
Strawberry Yogurt Chocoballs Sulbing was refreshing, with a nice sweet-tart yogurt flavor and crunchy chocolate balls for texture.
Dubai Nougat Crunch Ball was a fun surprise—crispy chocolate shell with pistachio cream and crunchy bits inside. Sweetness was well balanced with the snow ice.

We also tried some toasts. Mozzarella Injeolmi Toast is a must when hot—nutty soybean powder, chewy mochi inside, and stretchy mozzarella. Sweet and savory combo works really well. Honey Butter Bread was simple but comforting, best eaten warm.

Overall, great place to share a few shaved ice and toasts with friends. If you like light, fluffy snow ice, Sulbing is a solid choice.”

I want to give a huge thank you to Kelly, who was incredibly attentive, kind, and so detailed with everything. She made sure every part of the evening went smoothly and made us feel supported from start to finish. And a big shoutout to our server Ash, who went above and beyond the entire night. They treated my mom like a queen, and it meant so much to all of us.

It’s rare to find service that feels this personal and heartfelt. We left with smiles, full stomachs, and memories my mom will treasure forever.

I highly recommend this place for birthdays, gatherings, or any moment you want to make truly special.”

“Came in on a Friday night. There was only one other part there. There's only three tables inside (they are more for large groups). Seating is available outside. This is the first store I've been to where ordering is exclusively through the kiosk and drinks aren't self serve. I got the Chicken Cauli plate and I LOVED it! One of the dressings (romanesco) was in the process of being made and about halfway through the meal they brought it out. It was delicious! The Chicken Avocado Ranch Bowl was enjoyable as well.”
