Restaurants in Sunnyvale
Best Restaurants
“Atmosphere and service were great. Food is 10/10.. just wondering how all the food here can taste so good..They also have great choices for vegetarians. Highly recommend this place.”
“Easily one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. Five stars across the board. The only complaint I could imagine is that it’s super popular and hence usually packed with people, but that is a really stupid complaint. It’s worth the wait.”
“Really a hidden gem! I have passed this restaurant so many times and never went in. This Turkish food is amazing!There is an option you can sit outside and grill your food in front of you. The meat or kebab sticks sells about $9 per piece, so depending on how many you eat, you pay less or more. The tables are for 8 people but they can also join them for larger groups.I loved the shift kebab. Baklava was amazing, the service was great. They also offer fresh squeezed orange juice.Yummy!”
“Interesting Chinese restaurant. Been there twice. A large selection of dishes - some very tasty, some for everyone. The portions are large (as was noted, many take two dishes for three), the price category is average, the staff is wonderful - friendly and helpful. The restaurant is quite clean. The only thing that didn't please me was the toilet. I wish it was cleaner there.You can take food to go. I was pleased that they thoughtfully provided you with napkins, cutlery, and even fortune cookies.”
“A very nice restaurant in downtown Sunnyvale. Located in the pedestrian only street, with parking nearby. Very friendly and professional service, and a great ambiance. The selection for vegetarian main courses is limited, however, only eggplant dishes. Nevertheless, a very good choice to dine in Sunnyvale.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“The service and staff are so friendly and very attentive but the salmon taco…already want another! Delicious!At night, I wish they dimmed the lights to give it a little more ambiance and date vibes but would return in a heartbeat!”
“There were so many options and something for everybody. My friend wanted something ultra healthy with no oil, and he had steamed kale, steamed veggies, steamed tofu and brown rice. I had spicy noodle soup. It was all delicious, was served really quickly, and the staff were lovely.”
“Higher-end, likely one of the best Korean BBQ places in Silicon Valley! Stylish decoration and ambiance are appropriate for the cuisine and culture. Good service with refills on side dishes. Beyond the barbecue, a-la-carte items are good also with no skipping on the ingredients!”
Restaurants with Delivery
“The food truck has been there for a while and thought of trying this time. The menu is vast variety of things from chaat to full meals.We ordered Paani Puri and Chole bhature. Both of them were extremely good.Have to say I prefer the style they have for Paani Puri and have not gotten swayed by the trend of different type of waters.Chole bhature were amazing as well. The chole were well done and bhature weren’t too oily and didn’t taste like puri.Highly recommend both these. Will try other items as well in future visits”
“Indulge in an exquisite journey of Indian Speciality cuisine at this remarkable restaurant, where seafood takes center stage unlike anywhere else in the Bay Area. Each dish is meticulously crafted with a symphony of aromatic spices, delivering unparalleled flavors that tantalize the senses. What truly sets this establishment apart is the genuine care and attention from the owners, who personally engage with every patron, eagerly gathering feedback and ensuring each diner's needs are met with utmost satisfaction. The selection of fish here is nothing short of exceptional, bursting with distinct flavors that redefine seafood dining experiences. If only I could award six stars, I would without hesitation. Here's to hoping this gem expands its footprint across the country, sharing its unparalleled cuisine with countless more food enthusiasts.”
“Amazing flavors and very warm staff/owners. This unassuming place is in a quiet, older strip mall. The staff were warm, kind and accommodating. The ice cream is delish, with many unique flavors to choose from. I especially enjoyed Orange Cardamom. Games and books available to entertain the kiddos. There's also Nahita's Bakery and Cafe at this location serving up Turkish specialties.”
“Atmosphere and service were great. Food is 10/10.. just wondering how all the food here can taste so good..They also have great choices for vegetarians. Highly recommend this place.”

“I don't have a lot of experience with Brazilian cuisine, though I have been looks for a place in the South Bay. This is the first one I've found (other than Fogo), so it was a cool experience to try the hot food here. They are closed on Sundays so it never worked out for me to stop by. I went on a Saturday and they had the Brazilian Feijoada. The menu salted this for Fridays, which was fine by me (because it sounded more interesting than the Saturday dish). Anyway, the Feijoada was one of the best tasting black bean dishes I've ever had. It was a tad on the salty side, though the flavors were interesting.”
“Delicious and flavorful paneer wrap. Customer service is top tier. The older gentleman was very friendly and kind. How refreshing to get wonderful customer service! Area around the food truck was clean. Thank you! Support local businesses!”
“This is hands down the best vegetarian Vietnamese food I’ve ever had. The summer rolls were fresh and delicious. I also had the vegan duck soup which had a great broth. It’s owned by a sweet family. Support locally owned businesses and come!”
“Love their Alphonso ice cream! It’s Indian summer in a bowl ❤️Their non dairy chocolate ice cream another one of my favoriteDietary restrictions: Offer non diary options”
“Margarita Taqueria is a taco truck located in a parking lot. There are tables around a liquor store that you can eat at. One of the best tacos I ever! Meat was well seasoned and the portion size of the meat was good. I got the chipotle and green sauce and it was amazing. The complementary pickled red onions was a nice palate cleanser. I highly recommend getting the birria soup. It came with large chunks of tender meat, tortilla, white onions, cilantro, and chili. There was so much flavor in the soup. My friends got the super burrito and it was huge!!! It was the size of their forearms. Definitely worth the price.”

“Amazing food! Ordered pani puri and Afghani soya chaap. The pani puri has three waters and the spicy water was the best. Careful, if your spice tolerance is low, coz this was Indian spicy. The Afghani chaap was yummy and exactly how we get in India. Super yummy food, keep it up!Vegetarian options: Soya chaap is really yummy and a great vegetarian option!”
“authentic Hunan cuisine fast service and friendly staff clean restaurant and free parking atmosphere delicious spicy fish with noodles and pumpkin pancakes worth the price and would return here often.”

Casa Lupe
“Totally enjoy meal with family here - the service was brisk & cheerful, the food was well & the tostadas and wraps were light, crispy, tasty ….. had to go for my half portion as it was a big plate. Love the chips & salsa dips.”
“Love the food. Never had a bad dish from this restaurant. From the appetizers to the deserts and tea...everything is so delicious. My favorite dish is the quabilli (sp?) pallow with a side of the kadu! Amazing!!!!”
“I ordered half of the seasoned chicken and it was plentiful and delicious. It lacks the crunchiness, but is delicious. It tastes just like the seasoned chicken you eat in Korea!”
Outdoor Dining
“Went with friends. Good place after work. Street parking available. Can enjoy many different local beer flavors. Food was supplied by truck stand in front. Overall good experience”
“The service and staff are so friendly and very attentive but the salmon taco…already want another! Delicious!At night, I wish they dimmed the lights to give it a little more ambiance and date vibes but would return in a heartbeat!”
“Large space, but very quiet for dinner. Apparently their main business is lunch and special events. Servings at dinner are large, so come hungry. I had the Moussaka and it was quite good.”
“Visited the Gurkha kitchen with my family today. The food was amazing ? We tried 3-4 items on the menu and everything tasted great. The ambience and service was also really good and quick. Highly recommended.”
“Where to begin with La Familia? Truly one of my favorite food trucks... everything deserves 5 stars. My go to is usually the carnitas torta but the birria is also very hard to beat! Be sure to wash it down with the tamarind agua fresca Not only that but the service is perfect. They are so sweet and friendly! side note: they also do catering so i recommend checking them out if you're in need of a caterer”
“Absolutely, here's a review for Mom's Biryani:Mom's Biryani serves up delicious and authentic Indian biryanis that won't disappoint. The portions are generous, enough to satisfy even the heartiest appetites, and the value is unbeatable. But what truly sets Mom's Biryani apart is the warm hospitality and the rich, flavorful biryanis that taste like something straight out of a home kitchen.I recommend trying their Gongura Chicken Biryani for a unique and tangy experience. You won't be disappointed!”
“I went to Asian Momo House while I was insanely hungry, and it did not disappoint. I got the chicken jhol momos, and man it was good it was really fresh. The chicken was tender and seasoned and hot. I also got the chicken sausage which was also good. However it was just a Hot Dog and I expected something more. I also got a mint lemonade as a drink. While there was barely any min in the lemonade they made up with this seasoning called Chaat masala which is really refreshing and tasty. Overall would not come again, but I do recommend to others.”
“This is my go to taco truck. My favorite is Lengua, cabeza and suerdero, I only had taco, torta and burrito here despite having come here for 30+ times, all good!”
“Lipsmackingly yummy, down to earth and minimal fuss executed perfectly!This was a vegetarian heaven in a somewhat meat-heavy area for restaurant options at superbly reasonable fare. The entire dish and all aspects screamed unique and exciting flavors which worked together really well and was a plentiful portion which left me with zero complaints. The falafel was also grilled perfectly, crispy yet light and fluffy left me drooling for more, the salad and grilled veggies were seasoned with some awesome spiced, all topped with crunchy and peppery baked pita chips.I can't wait to return and cannot recommend the Veggie Shawarma with Grilled Veggies and Grilled Falafel enough!”
“Bean scene cafe catered for our Grand Opening weekend of YogaSix Sunnyvale and the food was fantastic! Their pastries were wonderful and we loved their sandwiches! Our members and staff really enjoyed the food. Kenny the owner is very nice and took great care of us! We will definitely be back!”
“Loved the pizza and specially the homemade ranch..completely delicious and lip smacking.. can't wait to eat there againVegetarian options: Large selection to choose from.”
“Totally enjoy meal with family here - the service was brisk & cheerful, the food was well & the tostadas and wraps were light, crispy, tasty ….. had to go for my half portion as it was a big plate. Love the chips & salsa dips.”
“1st visit. Won't be the last. Warmly welcomed in. Took my order. Paid. Was handed my food. In & out under 10 min. Food was fresh & hot. Highly recommend!!”
“Wow, I really enjoyed my dinner. We stumbled into this place and it turned out so good. It’s basically American done really well.Order at the counter, find a seat and your food comes in about 10 minutes. They have a bunch of craft beers but I didn’t try any this time.They have a ton of dishes but we opted to both get steak. And it was cooked very well. Yet and well seasoned. Good portion size including the sides.Lots of seating. But a little loud. And a little cold in the main hall. The outdoor one (well, truly indoor) has heating lamps which help a lot.Looking forward to future visits.”
“Came at lunchtime with my mom and had a wonderful time.The staff was super friendly and helpful, and the lunch buffet is a really good deal with all you can eat, fresh naan, and hot chai.My mom loved the goat curry and i liked the butter chicken.Will definitely come again!!”
“My boyfriend and I are regulars at this place—we go at least once every two weeks.We always get the spicy beef intestine rice noodle soup and we love it. They give the spicy intestines and soup in separate bowls so you can adjust the level of spice. Fair warning, it’s proper hunan spice so only add the whole thing if you can handle spicy!The staff are also super friendly and service is great.”

Burma Taste
“There has been nothing in the menu we do not like. The best appetizer is the roti with chicken curry. The Curry is a non spicy coconut milk curry. The best salad is the green tea salad. It has a slight kick even if you drop the jalapeños. The best soup is the samosa soup. For entries there are lots of good options, but I like the fiery dishes. They are sweet and spicy.Think of Burmese food as Indian, Thai, and Chinese fusion. If you like any of those cuisines you can find something you would enjoy on the menu.”
15
Mumu Hot Pot
“Good hot pot place. We went for the $75 combo which has option of choosing 2 meats, 2 soups, 2 sides and noodles. Tom yum thai style soup was very tasty. For meat we took prime agnus flat iron. Meat was juicy and blended well with the soup. The combo also comes with 1 veggies tray with almost everything in it. We did not find option for crabs here. And also fish eggs were alright. I will definitely visit again.”
Online Reservation Available
“There were so many options and something for everybody. My friend wanted something ultra healthy with no oil, and he had steamed kale, steamed veggies, steamed tofu and brown rice. I had spicy noodle soup. It was all delicious, was served really quickly, and the staff were lovely.”
“Falafel STOP has been consistently good over the years. The only thing I can say with confidence is that if you like this type of food, you'll love it. Otherwise, it may not be your cup of tea.”
“Amazing food. Highly recommend. Had goat biryani (succulent), chatinad chicken (spicy and decadent) and daal makhni (creamy and rich). It's owned by the same people from Indian tadka on el camnino.”

“We love this place, couple family occasions we celebrated there. Unfortunately one thing that did not change, no matter if you walk in or have a reservation - you still might wait for about 15min (if a party bigger then 3 people). Food is awesome, especially cherry rice and lamb.Kid-friendliness: They are fine if you come with kids, they have chairs for babies, unfortunately no kids menu or any kids distractions (like crayons and etc), they have kids cups for water or juiceWheelchair accessibility: No stairs, easy access, one level.”
“This place is just fantastic! What a lovely experience from the moment we walked through the door. The chef is fantastic! Great big full service well appointed bar. First class service. Five star food.”
“On a trip for work stopped by for dinner and a beer by myself. SUPER friendly staff at the bar. Juan and the entire staff kept checking onto make sure I had everything I wanted. Great tasty burger and tried a few sample beers to find one I loved to order a glass. Excellent food and beer. Highly recommend”
“Ordered Thai ice tea, yellow curry and pad kee mau and both were absolutely delicious. This is my 8th or more time coming here and this place beats the best Thai restaurants in the Bay Area. Family owned business and they keep the food bar high. Highly recommended!”
“Interesting paki/Indian food. I think they added a twist to some things with the burgers and the wraps. The kebab burger patty had some interesting spices. The dahi puri was good but I wish I didn't take it to go as it gets soggy quickly.Really cool concept tho and the good was tasty so I def recommend”
“Every time I come to this place and every time I forget to write a review). The restaurant is very clean, the staff is kind and courteous, the portions are large, the food is quite tasty, the price category is above average. I am attaching the menu and photos of the dishes.”
“First time at K's Café. I like how all the menu items are named after professional sports teams, although that makes me not want to order the Dodgers dish, haha. I devoured a delicious crepe stuffed with vegetables called Arsenal. It was pretty quiet inside when we arrived around 12pm on a Thursday. We could talk quietly even with a table of seven women chatting animatedly by the door. However, it became very noisy and crowded when a large number of students arrived from the high school across the street. I would avoid the school rush hour in the future. Prices were pretty high, but what else is new these days. Wheelchair access was good with space in the main walkway. We were able to choose a table at the end so there was enough room to maneuver the wheelchair. I forgot to take a photo of my meal before I started eating. My tastebuds were happy and my stomach was full when we left.”
“This place has always been a favorite spot for lunch. Since covid, they no longer have indoor seating. That said, the Pinoy Breakfast A Pork Tosilog is a must-have. Always go for the double meat option for good measure. Don't forget to use the vinegar they include as it brings out the flavor of the pork and egg yolk!”
“If I could give this place six stars, I would! My experience at Noodle Talk was nothing short of exceptional. Their dishes are exceptional – perfectly cooked and bursting with authentic flavors. The menu offers a variety of options, and the rice noodles are a must-try. Cooked to perfection, each strand had the ideal texture, neither too soft nor too chewy.The cozy ambiance and friendly staff make dining here a delight. If you're craving delicious Chinese rice noodles, this is the place to be!”
“I grew up in the 2000's here and there was this place called Shalimar on this same street (El Camino Real) and it was my favorite takeout place. The Naan + Chicken Tikka Masala was such a unique and excellent taste. Unfortunately, they closed few years back.I was shocked to realize the taste in this Shah was the exact same. The consistency is commendable. Though the prices have gone up in these 20 years, not once did that ever-so unique and brilliant taste ever differ.As a child in the 2000's till today in 2024 it has been the same. If you are looking for some Indo-Pakistani food around this area, this is a good option. Be sure to take the tea when you go to pick up the food. It is quietly great.”
“Stumbled on Metro first day here on a work trip looking for breakfast and beer and wow! This place is the bomb. One of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had. The egg yokes were so deep orange I knew they were farm fresh, and the hash browns grilled to perfection. Service was fast and spot on. Tap beer had a Lucky7 local IPA which was fantastic. Stars aligned at this place!”
“The beef tongue and chazuke rice are huge and delicious. My favorite is the mentaiko noodles. The sweet shrimp sashimi was not very fresh today. Overall, the price/performance ratio is very good~”

Top Dumpling
“Top Dumpling always serving the best soup dumplings and buns! The quality and flavor of their dishes never disappoint. The ambiance is cozy and cute, the service was also great!”
“The food was very good. They were very generous on the side dishes.I also love their barley tea. We ordered the seafood pancake, spicy pork ribs, and the fried fish. It come with rice too. Everything was almost half gone and that's how good it was. I recommend coming here.”

“Everything very good food very good service find a person who gives you a moment and makes your night if you read this you know what it is for you why that person is ”
“Great service! I came in on a busy week night, there were only 2 people behind the counter but we got through pretty fast. They added a lot of meat - I thought they heard me wrong and did double meat but they charged like a normal sandwich. The workers were polite and quick, great experience.”
“The food was absolutely stunning and delicious.Carl jr is in my top 5 fav restaurants.This cash register named Candy, was very sweet (no pun intended) and kind. She made sure my food was perfect 1000/10, give her a raise y’all ??????”

Indian Tadka
“Came here with a large group of friends on a weekday night. We were able to be seated right away. The parking is ample, but most of the stores next door were closed by the time we arrived (around 7:30/8). We noticed there were other large parties in the restaurant, even one celebrating a birthday with their own cake! The service was quick. There's water already set out on the table for you, although it tasted a bit off. We got mango lassis and our own dishes. I got the spicy dosa. It's huge! I'm a fan of crepes, and eating this was so fun. The spice built up; I could still taste the flavors on my tongue and smell it on my fingers for a while after the meal. The mango lassi was sour, slightly sweet, creamy and mellowed the spice out. My friends got the chicken and lamb on sizzling plates and they smelled heavenly. They had great flavor as well, and came with onions and tomatoes. One of my friends got the chicken biryani and the portion felt like it could be 3 meals, or 2 at least. It was served TOWERING in a bowl so he wasn't sure how to approach it. I'd ask for a separate bowl on the side. The menu is extensive and has great prices. I'd definitely come back!”

Ginger Cafe
“The Mongolian beef is good, a bit chewy though.The vibe is nice. It's also located close to Golfland and Rooster Feathers.There's a small parking lot in the ”

Takeout Restaurants
“sister location of the original one on Stevens Creek. this is the best thin slice you can get west of NYC. they make me happy.update: they still make me happy :)”
“Cute place with decent vegetarian options.Tried Tofu/Vegetarian Roll (4 pieces) and they tasted pretty good. Wish they could added more veggies though. Peanut Sauce was amazing!Also, the chili paste on the side was very fresh and tasted good.It’s honestly very expensive for the quantity they offered though :/Vegetarian options: Very few vegetarian options..”
“Higher-end, likely one of the best Korean BBQ places in Silicon Valley! Stylish decoration and ambiance are appropriate for the cuisine and culture. Good service with refills on side dishes. Beyond the barbecue, a-la-carte items are good also with no skipping on the ingredients!”
“- MOOMO Mango Pomelo Sago(caffeine-free) with Limited Edition Cup- Uji Matcha Brulee Milk Tea- Thai Milk TeaTo order:There are TWO self order kiosks. One in the front and one to the right, next to seating in the corner.My drink was the Mango Pomelo, and I ordered it 50% sweet and regular ice. It was exactly what I wanted it to be......mango'y!!! It was sweet, a bit tart and delicious.The only complaints there were were about the Thai tea. My friend didn't like it much, but I didn't try it for myself.This shopping center is quite busy on weekends so parking can be difficult to find close. May have to park a little farther.There are so many good food choices in this shopping center. Would suggest having some dumplings or noodles nearby, then get your tea on your way out.”
“One of the best tacos in the South Bay. Please go out of your way to come this particular Lopez Taqueria location. The others are just not as good. The al pastor marinade was unique from other taco spots and had depth. The lengua tacos here are my favorite in the South Bay. It had a unique sauce it was stewed in and the texture is perfect. I like my lengua with a little chew and this was right up my alley. The chile verde was tender (and not the dry kind of tender). It was slow cooked and moist while the other location felt like it was boiled hard. Carnitas tasted good, it's standard, not the best I've ever had. Avoid the fish tacos - it's just bunch of dry fish sticks on a tortilla, not a big piece of juicy fish like most people expect. I like how they have chili oil on the tables. It adds a nice smokey touch. I wish they had orange sauce like the other taco spots in SJ (Spartans, La Vics, etc). The service here is extremely friendly. I come here pretty occasionally and the food is consistent. I'll definitely be back!”
“Love the food. Never had a bad dish from this restaurant. From the appetizers to the deserts and tea...everything is so delicious. My favorite dish is the quabilli (sp?) pallow with a side of the kadu! Amazing!!!!”
“I ordered half of the seasoned chicken and it was plentiful and delicious. It lacks the crunchiness, but is delicious. It tastes just like the seasoned chicken you eat in Korea!”
“The Chicken Kabab at Falafel Flame Sunnyvale not only impresses with its culinary excellence but is also complemented by outstanding staff services. The attentive and knowledgeable team enhances the dining experience, offering personalized recommendations and ensuring that each guest feels welcome. From the moment diners step into the cozy, inviting atmosphere, they are greeted with warmth, making Falafel Flame an exemplary choice for those seeking authentic Middle Eastern cuisine. The kabab itself—a masterpiece of tender, marinated chicken grilled to perfection—along with the harmonious sides, underscores the restaurant's commitment to quality and flavor. Overall, Falafel Flame stands out as a must-visit destination, promising not just a meal but a memorable culinary journey supported by exceptional service.”
“This place has a classic, low key local vibe that really makes you feel relaxed and cozy. You can choose between booth seats by the window or table seating that works for both smaller and larger groups. Personally a big fan of their beef stew - loaded with fresh ingredients and the soup is absolutely delicious. The grilled chicken tastes good too, although the rice can be a bit on the softer side the day I had. Staffs are welcoming and wearing smiles all the time. Inexpensive price. Highly recommended if you’re in the mood for authentic and casual Vietnamese food!”
“Phenomenal tacos!!!! So much flavor and fresh ingredients. Great serving sizes, great price! Ordered a Carne Quesadilla and 2 chicken tacos! Not sure what the drink was, but it’s pineapple flavored and delicious as well!! Highly recommend!!”
“The breakfasts are very delicious and this place serves the best pupusas, pumpkin with cheese, beans and cheese uhh the best. I feel like I'm in El Salvador when I visit SV Cocina. The place is always very clean and the waitresses are very friendly. They sell super delicious sweet bread for coffee.”
“Delicious burgers and fries. And they have diet Dr Pepper which is my favorite. Lots of seating to choose from. Even smaller more private rooms to eat in. I'd go here again.”
“I usually order spicy pav bhaji here. Its tastes really good and the chai here is a must try. There’s a transaction fee (1$ i think?) added if you swipe the card for <10$. Better to carry cash if you’re going just for the chai, which i usually do :)”
“Bagel Street Cafe - Sunnyvale is a must visit for me on early weekend mornings if I'm working Saturdays or before/after Church. Food is exceptional and the service is fast. Plenty of parking too! The Lox bagels and Supreme/Deluxe breakfast sandwiches are fantastic. The earlier you go the better because this location can get very busy and the more popular bagel varieties (Marinara, Spinach Asiago, Jalapeno Cheddar, Etc.) can go quick.”
“Fast, affordable, and really tasty! I had the 4c (bbq pork) and was not disappointed. The store had a lot of various treats and goodies that looked great as well (like homemade kimchi, etc). And just as an fyi there is no seating so it appears to be just a takeout place!”
“Every time I come to this place and every time I forget to write a review). The restaurant is very clean, the staff is kind and courteous, the portions are large, the food is quite tasty, the price category is above average. I am attaching the menu and photos of the dishes.”

Drive-Thru Restaurants
“If you ever need a pick me up come here when Katelyn is working! She is a big beautiful ball of sunshine, brighter than the sun, with a smile that puts all the stars to shame! Katelyn is employee of the entire week, month, year, honestly all time.”
“Thank you to all the staff there (especially Gina!) for always making my day. I go as a treat every now and then and always receive great and quick service. I love the strawberry acai peanut butter bowl!!”
“Chick-Fil-A! Chick-Fil-A is not just Chick-Fil-A. Chick-Fil-A is a brand. Chick-Fil-A is the man of smart people. The people of Chick-Fil-A, they are very smart. I LOVE Chick-Fil-A.”
“Located in the corner, this Starbucks offers ample seating in a clean and spacious environment. The service is prompt, including a convenient drive-thru option, and there is an abundance of parking available. Additionally, the store features various Starbucks memorabilia for customers to purchase.”
“Came for dinner on Valentine's. I liked my seafood ramen, which had unclear broth base nevertheless tasted with scallops, clams and shrimp in it. You can substitute regular ramen with Konnyaku yam to be keto friendly with an extra $1.50. Tonkatsu ramen had delicious soup base that tasted like pork.However, the heavily bread-crumbed Chicken Karaage, though tasted and tender inside, was not very good because the batter was too thick.Small space and intimate vibe. Table was cramped and not too comfortable.Service was friendly and attentive.Recommend their ramens.”
“I can't speak to the dine in atmosphere but the food is always hot and satisfying when I order take out. The Double Chicken Torta bowl is my favorite and the cilantro ranch takes it the extra mile. I order drive up so most of the time I don't even have to get out of my car. I've been here multiple times and it hits just right.Parking: Parking is shared with a strip mall, so its hit or miss, every time I've been here its around 6pm and I can park close enough if not right in front in the drive up order spot.”
“Food is definitely good and authentic.We had ghee kara masala dosa, thali , rava onion dosa and Mysore masala.All of the dishes were very good fresh.dosas were crispy. Thali is a must try.Its really crowded on weekends, so expect a wait of 10-20 mins. filter coffee is also good.Service was slow and we had to remind them of our orders.”
“The gongura chicken is so damm good. The spice level is just perfect. Its gonnna burn , but you can also taste the food. I have been trying this type of briyani all over the u.s and yet i have not come close to how this restaurant makes this special dish. A must try if your in the bay area… !!!!”
“Very tasty sandwiches! Just wish the roll was more sturdy with a bit of outer crunch instead of soft and mushy, especially toward the end of the sandwich eating.”
“It just does not get any better than the original ice berg shake. If you have never been here, you must stop and try one. Many flavors to choose from. Go with confidence, and be hungry.”
“I haven't been in an Arby's since the one in SoSF closed, feels like 20 years back. Arby's roast beef is still delicious, and Arby's sauce is fantastic! Very friendly ”
“Excellent place to grab a delicious smoothie or acai bowl (they also have other foods and drinks). I love the smoothies and the bowls that I get here. It sure beats any other competitor such as Jamba Juice. The service is top notch also, Gary does a great job of helping the clients in a smooth(ie) manner by going above and beyond in service and quality. The other staff is great as well such as Giselle who ensures a quality experience. The owner is doing a great job in handling the business and making sure that the community is supplied nutritious and delicious foods and drinks. Way to go! Thank you for everything. Keep up the great work! I love the quiet atmosphere...”
“Taco bell was my first exposure to Mexican food after trying Chipotle back in 2007 US landing. The love of spicy Mexican food didn't fade till today especially when it's prepared by hardworking families and dotting mothers who are ready to go miles to feed everyone. Taco Bell is always a good feeling at any moment whether at the airport, near the gas stations or the university campuses!”
“Although fast food menus tend to remain the same across the country, what does change is quality and service. The Taco Bell here off Kiefer road delivers both in full force.Through numerous visits, only once have they messed up my order and upon returning for my missed item, I was greeted with an apology and an additional item as a way of saying "our bad".The service is always fast, friendly and true to the iconic T.B. taste we all know. When I want a treat for getting through the week, I look no further than my local Taco Bell cause damn, they don't just do it, they do it well.”
“Great customer service, very clean, very quick This KFC location has had another huge improvement. The food looks very good and tastes amazing as well. I really enjoy how they have new meals every month. Once you enter this KFC restaurant, the place is very well organized, and you are greeted and feel welcomed each time.Kid-friendliness: There is a meal dedicated to kids.”
“Great place for Indian sweets. Very authentic taste and are always fresh. I especially enjoyed the kalakand and badusha. Reminds one of the great pullareddy sweets of yore. Highly recommend the ”
“On a trip for work stopped by for dinner and a beer by myself. SUPER friendly staff at the bar. Juan and the entire staff kept checking onto make sure I had everything I wanted. Great tasty burger and tried a few sample beers to find one I loved to order a glass. Excellent food and beer. Highly recommend”
“Enjoyed this Japanese Izakaya very much. Super fresh delicious seafood, authentic flavors, friendly service. A great place to hang out with friends. Their rice bowls are top-notch delicious. The sashimi set is great value for money with massive pieces of fresh fish. We also ordered a okonomiyaki sampler platter with all 4 flavors to share which was great.”

“Update: Visited again in Jan 2024 and still is the reigning king/queen of pozole in the Bay Area.This spot has the best Pozole in the Bay Area for only $9 a cup as of Dec. 2022. Make sure to try some of their orange sauce! Burritos are also delicious! I'm gonna come back to try some of the sangria too”
“This place is amazing and a must try for Filipino food! My favorites are the pork adobo and sour soup. The soup is so good I've tried to make it at home, but nothing compares, instant comfort with one slurp.”
“If you're looking for a good quick easy taco spot that tastes really good definitely come check it out. I highly recommend the super burrito everything inside. I also would tell you to try the quesadilla. Very very good. No questions asked. The staff is extremely nice and easy. The food comes in 5 to 7 minutes Max. If you're in the area come and try it it out you won't be disappointed. The location is in a chevron gas station”
“I tried Kona Island Coffee's new Mango Macadamia coffee cake. It is a moderately sweet new item they are trying out. This isn't overly sugary. It contains pieces of mango and provides a nice balance to their coffee. I would get it again.”
“This place is old school and delicious. Pho is customizable with quality ingredients. Only thing is the bathroom is old school and beat up. That’s why the 4star. Otherwise, I felt welcomed and the Pho is worth coming back for. ??”
“As you enter you are greeted by the sweet and delicious smell of pan dulce! Each pan melts in your mouth so that’s how you know it’s freshly made! I buy $10 worth of pan dulce on a weekly basis. The variation is great too!”
“First time we went to Hobee's, it is somewhat comparable to Dennys but there quality is much better. The food and service was excellent, I had the California style omelette and guava Juice both were awesome tasting. The servers were a little slow but nothing to worry about. The atmosphere was like of any other diner place.”
“I would consider this a hidden gem in Sunnyvale that needs more attention. If you're looking for a cake for a special occasion, you have to check out this shop. This is an Asian and woman-owned bakery (and the workers are soo sweet) that offers a unique variety of flavored cakes. I loved the little tea bar they had (complimentary for dine-in) and enjoyed looking at all the plants and other small gift items they had around the shop available for purchase.* Creme Brulee Crepe Cake* Earl Grey Crepe Cake* Salted Egg & Pork Sung Crepe Cake* Durian Mochi Balls* Avocado Molten Cake”
“The food are very good I think one of the best In Sunnyvale area the only thing the lady on the cashier she don’t give attention to you need to wait like 5 min until you can order expect that everything the food is super ”
“Supports local comedy. Karaoke. Pool table. Fun vibe. I have been to the Plaza so many times, and I would've never thought that I would find a bar like this in the middle of this Plaza. It's got a pool table in the back. There's a little stage for local talents. The owner is super cool. He completely supports local entertainment and arts. He's really easy to work with. The bar keeps are all chill and easy to get along with. Tiffani is so sweet and has such a good heart. Dan has been so helpful and has gone out of his way to make the experience here. Absolutely amazing. I know I'm gonna keep coming back.”
“It's a hole in the wall place with authentic South Indian food. If you're craving, give this place a try. I have tried many places but this take out restaurant makes tasty food.”
“Food is very good. See some people saying they don’t have seating (first off, why would you expect a food truck to have seating?) but they do have seating! Probably the best seating I have seen for a food truck.”
“We tried varieties of dosa here, and rava dosa is really good. Podi dosas are not great, and could get better ones. Best part you ask ? Chaats. Masala Puri, Punugulu, Pani puri and irani chai are the best. Tip: ask to make masala puri spicy!”
“Unexpectedly landed on this place late night, absolutely awesome food, bang for buck. Guy at the counter was friendly and made me an awesome Vegan Taco salad (just ask).”
“Cool hidden away local (dive?) bar! Wouldn't have even known it existed excepts friends band issues there. Looks like regulars must frequent the place. Decent set of beers on tap. Pool table. Some scattered seating. Great music atmosphere. I think the mic audio could be slightly improved cuz it was a little distorted but it's all good. Clearly a little older crowd.”
“Stumbled on Metro first day here on a work trip looking for breakfast and beer and wow! This place is the bomb. One of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had. The egg yokes were so deep orange I knew they were farm fresh, and the hash browns grilled to perfection. Service was fast and spot on. Tap beer had a Lucky7 local IPA which was fantastic. Stars aligned at this place!”
“I had the "chose two" dinner plate. Quesadilla and Enchilada with black beans and rice. Very good, liked the sauce and the pork in the Enchilada was nice. Very good margaritas also.”
“My wife and I have gone to this hidden gem restaurant several times. I took two friends for lunch today and both thought that the food was delicious. The BBQ is award winning! The portions are big as well. We got to meet Ryan the co-owner and pit master today who was very welcoming. I've posted pictures of the 3 St. Louis style ribs, brisket sandwich and caleb's cracklins. The BBQ plate orders come with choice of two sides and a roll.The sandwich comes with choice of one side.”
“We have been sick and gotten take out from this place twice in two days. I have been trying to find a good porridge place near us and I think I have found it! We got the minced beef porridge twice - flavorful, a lot of beef, and I love that they put slices of ginger. (We been to some other placed and the porridge has been bland) Singaporean noodles - I didn't have any since my throat hurt. My husband said this was done very well. Wet egg with beef over rice - A lot of toppings and also well flavored Love that it is close by and open all day long.”
“The fried chicken wing is very tender and fresh, I especially love their crispy fried chicken. The staff's attitude is also very good, and the service is fast. I will definitely come back!”
“3.5 STARS Date: Saturday, April 6th, 2024 Time: 3pm Meal: Birthday Late Lunch / Early Dinner Part of: 6 Reservation Made: via Yelp about 1.5 weeks earlier Dinner BBQ & Hot Pot ($37.99) x6 *Japanese Miso *Healthy Herb x2 *Thai Pot: Vegan Spicy x3 *Pork Belly x2 *Ribeye x4 *Spicy Pork Belly *Pork Belly x2 *Pork Jowl x2 *Garlic Shrimp x2 *Galbi Marinated Short Rib x6 *Seapot Angus Beef x2 *Beef Tongue *Steam Rice x3 *J Lohr Cabernet 2019: 375ml ($23) *Sapporo Pitcher ($25) *Original Bottle Soju ($13) *Peach Bottle Soju ($13) *18% Tip ($54.35) For a friend's bday, we decided to do a late lunch at Seapot. I believe on weekends they are open all day and the dinner price applies all day as well. Tip was automatically added to the bill, but I think that was because we were a party of 6? I do adore Seapot for their conveyor belt offerings. I tend to like variety. And I gravitate towards a lot of veggies and seafood. So it's nice they are readily avail in small portions. I don't feel like I have to eat a portion of veggies for the whole table if no one else wants some. Also, super convenient since we don't have to wait for the server to bring those items out. Meat wise (and some seafood), you have to order thru the server. And there's a time limit of 90 mins. Unfortunately this took a while, so we were only able to order one round before the server came back for last call. For bigger parties, they should give two hours as that's not enough time to cook and eat everything. (We still had uncooked plates when they came back for last call.) There's only one grill at a table for 6. It's definitely not enough time to get your korean bbq on. For an AYCE place, this was one of the first times I didn't really leave full. Drinks wise, we had a red wine drinker, so we tried to order a bottle of red wine. The first bottle, they were out, so I asked about two other bottles. They were out of those too. He could only offer a bottle we didn't want, so we ended up with a half bottle of something we originally asked about. Corkage here is $25, while the average bottle was around $40-$50, so it didn't seem worth it to cork anything. I think if we had a smaller party, it would have been fine. But for a larger party, I don't think it's worth coming here. The time limit isn't really enough to take advantage of the AYCE.”

Tipsy Putt
“Fun place for a quick outing. Not an indictment on this particular location but just the brand, I personally wish there were more holes for the table top golf. That was way more fun for me personally as opposed to the mini golf. Oh and customer service was welcoming and friendly.”
“I've never tried okonomiyaki so I wanted to try this place out. This place is in a restaurant called Rokko so it almost made us miss the place when driving by since the outside sign only displays Rokko. The menu had lots of options to choose from as it's 2 restaurants in one: Rokko and Fugetsu. Shrimp & Veggie Tempura: 4.5/5A great variety of shrimp and assorted veggies! Very generous and included 4 shrimp tempura. Very fresh and crispy. Okonomiyaki Sampler: 3.5/54 mini okonomiyaki which includes Ebi mayo, Negi-tsukimi pork and Gyusuki negitama, and Cheese. The shredded cabbage base sort of reminds me of hash browns. Wish we got the noodle version AKA modanyaki!Service was amazing, our server was so friendly and was constantly checking up on our table! I'll come back to try the modanyaki next time! Check this place out if you want to try okonomiyaki!”
“Pretty good??Especially love the house special chow fun❤️But for the Braised pork knuckles with dried plum is hard to comment. First time to have this special taste?”
“First time at Xiang Xiang Noodle. We had E5 & L4 and both were delicious. Service was friendly as well. It might be a bit expensive but considering the noodles are handmade, it is reasonable. This place is better than another place in the city that makes their noodles.There is parking, but the lot can be a bit dangerous at times due to congestion when it is really busy. It has always been that way, so just be careful.”

Tao Tao
“Favorite Chinese restaurant in the South Bay. Large portions, fantastic Mai Tais and great service. Great for parties/groups of people. I would highly suggest the group menu which allows a wide variety of dishes. I would otherwise suggest the Tao Tao beef and the famous Tao Tao chicken salad (best salad ever). I like Tao Tao so much that I will drive half an hour just for the salad.”

Hunan Mifen
“I always order to go and they will separate the soup and the noddle and they will also ask my arrival time so they can planned the time to delivery my order. So I could take home with warm food to serve without warm it up again. Thank you and will recommend.”
“The food was very good. Service average. When we arrived they sat us next to someone sorting plates and silverware and it was very noisy. We had to request a table in a quieter location.”

Siam Taste
“Siam Taste in Sunnyvale is a gem! My girlfriend and I are regulars, drawn in by the chicken yellow curry and the irresistible spicy fried rice. She loves the tom yum soup, which, like every dish here, is fantastic. Beyond the food, it's the owners that make every visit special. Their kindness and attentiveness ensure a dining experience that's as warm and welcoming as the meals are delicious. Highly recommended to anyone looking for Thai food in Sunnyvale!”
“We've been here many times over the years and the food, wine and service has always been really good!I recently found out that Pezzella's makes a Parisian burger which originated at Linda's Drive-in which was in Mountain View from 1956 - 1985. Linda's was famous for its Parisian burger & super fries (tater tots). Well, I ate a lot of Parisian burgers in my younger days and they were addicting. So recently I got a Parisian burger with tater tots to go that I took home to eat. The Parisian burger was big and delicious. It brought back memories of eating at Linda's. I could barely finish the burger and tater tots and I wasn't hungry for a long time afterwards. Great job with the Parisian burger Pezzella's.Valary who I met was really nice and we had a nice brief conversation.Last Saturday we had a really delicious dinner.We started with the fried artichoke hearts which were really good! Then an order of garlic bread.The breaded Veal Parmigiana, tomato sauce & mozzarella cheese was delicious due to the cut and quality of the meat which made it so tender..the tomato sauce was delicious as well. They have several veal dishes and are done old school, usually served with a side of pasta and a side of veggies.The Linguine with chopped clams in butter, garlic & white wine was also delicious.The wine was also very good and our server George was excellent!Valary was also working again and she's really nice!”
“Quite a treat to have great food, service and atmosphere just a staircase away! I enjoyed the Tortellini Chicken Alfredo considerably. Props on the cherry tomatoes as well, which were perfectly tender and full of flavor. I highly recommend stopping by and enjoying a meal with the excellent and attentive staff here at Kitchen.”
“I went for a walk from the hotel where I was staying.I should have taken more photos, but there is a showcase of sweets at the entrance of the store.All of them look delicious.I ordered two items from appetizer and two items from main (pasta and pizza).Appetizer's squid rings (I wonder how they are called in English) are a side dish in Japanese supermarkets, but they would be delicious if they had a sauce like this.?Pasta and ?Pizza were great❗️For dessert, we all ordered different things and shared them. The size makes it perfect for sharing.☕️ is also available in decaf (no caffeine) so you can drink it at night.The parking lot is behind the store.You don't have to go to the front, you can quickly enter by using the back entrance.Is it a good thing about America?Parking: There is ?️ at the back of the store”
“A very atmospheric and noisy Irish pub. Getting inside is like being transported to another country and discovering something new. We were there on Friday evening. You need to find a table yourself, so I advise you not to yawn and immediately go looking for it before someone more active gets ahead of you. On Fridays there are a lot of people and it’s almost impossible to find a free table, but we were lucky. I can also tell you - if you are very hungry, it is better to go to another establishment. For example, we waited for our order for more than 40 minutes and it was not happy. The service is quite long - it looks like the waiters can’t cope with such a flow of people.In general, the food is not bad, and the selection of alcoholic drinks, including beer, is quite good.”

The Oxford
“I went here while traveling to Sunnyvale for work and went back several times. I usually get the pear&avocado salad, the Kobe burger and a Toki highball. I sit at the bar. The highball is executed really nicely, some orange and an airless giant ice cube. The salad is perfect, substantial but not heavy, nicely dressed. The Kobe burger medium is a little pink, really tasty. It’s pretty quiet during the week, staff is friendly but all business. Nice place to unwind.”
“A solid sushi restaurant.My experience here wasn't as exceptional as some of the other reviewers, but there was nothing wrong with it, and I'd go back (although I'd likely try a different sushi place in the area first.)Some sushi places leave you going "wow". This one didn't. But the sushi was definitely high quality, and made for a good meal.”
“Fresh tasty sushi and good service. We came on a very busy rainy night and the beautiful more traditional Japanese style interior was such a relief from the weather! Parking is between the gas station and the building. My new go to place for local sushi!”
“This site is my preferable restaurant. Of all restaurants I know I prefere it most. I never miss an opportunity to go to that place. everytime I want to go to a good dinner, this restaurant comes right away to my head. Great and all kinds of food and a large list of dishes.professional team, and good atmosphere. Also, the price is good. I praise this spot with no hesitation.”
“This is an awesome mom and pop type restaurant run by a very warm couple. The food is authentic Persian. The number 9 dish Kobdiah chicken is awesome. Also the eggplant appetiser is nice. Highly recommended!”

Ramen Seas
“Came for dinner on Valentine's. I liked my seafood ramen, which had unclear broth base nevertheless tasted with scallops, clams and shrimp in it. You can substitute regular ramen with Konnyaku yam to be keto friendly with an extra $1.50. Tonkatsu ramen had delicious soup base that tasted like pork.However, the heavily bread-crumbed Chicken Karaage, though tasted and tender inside, was not very good because the batter was too thick.Small space and intimate vibe. Table was cramped and not too comfortable.Service was friendly and attentive.Recommend their ramens.”
“Great happy hour prices! Can't go wrong with a Moscow Mule or a Margarita from here. The drinks aren't overly sweet and they don't skimp on the alcohol either. Food portions are pretty big here! Like... impressively big - at least from looking at other orders of nachos and fries. I got the Buffalo Chicken Wings, which were pretty good! Not too heavy on the vinegar, but they were spicy! Very saucy as well.”

Sawa Sushi
“Really enjoyed the dinning experience here, the environment is quiet, the food is great, and I had quite a pleasant chat with the owner Steve.The quality of the food is top notch, especially the uni which is the best kind on the Japanese market. And Steve's special sauces, fresh veggies and real wasabi really brought out an unique and surprising taste to the fish, which could be a bit bland just by itself. The caviar is great on its own, but together with uni, it really gives you that WOW factor. Also the wagyu is just amazing, it really just melts in your mouth!And the most important thing, you have to try the mochi there, the freshness and sweetness really help you wake right up after the protein feast earlier lol.The owner really knows his stuff, from food to Bay Area life, he knows it all after having the restaurant here for almost 30 years. If you want, you can have conversations with him the whole time, it never gets boring.Overall 10/10 place, would recommend to anyone wanting something new from just the usual soy sauce and 'fake' wasabi Japanese restaurants.”

Hanamaru
“They do take-aways only - and have an extensive menu that makes it hard to decide. With the constant cloudy, windy & intermittent drizzle/rain past two days, decided a Yosenabe would warm me up ?.Chockfull of prawns, clams, mussels, scallops & oyster. Loads of tofu, brocolli, carrot strips, white cabbage & glass noodle - with broth to the brim & hot. Portion enough for two meals or to share!Came with a small container of white rice & a bowl of fresh salad - was not expecting this as it was not in the menu description. ?”
“Delicious Taiwanese fried chicken that takes a little inspiration from Japanese street food with their sweet sauces and pan-fried cutlets. One combo was big enough for two people.”
“We grabbed lunch at Taco de Oro when we didn’t feel like cooking. Lots of choices on the menu and the service was great. Loved my burrito and my husband liked their flan for dessert. We’ll be back!”
“Very good with good portions. I had the spaghetti with meat and mushrooms and it was fantastic. This seems like the type of restaurant that I can eat at all the time. Unfortunately I live a thousand miles away.”
“This is a hotel where everything is above standard but nothing special. Recommended place for many people to come together for lunch and snacks and chat. Being very noisy is probably a characteristic of tea restaurants! So it will be nice to chat with everyone!”
“Great service, great food. Order a 3 meat plate with pulled pork, brisket and baby back ribs. The brisket and the pulled pork was an amazing and the ribs was ok. As a side, I ordered a mac & Cheese and potato salad and both were delicious. Highly recommend this spot.Kid-friendliness: They have a table games for the kids and the environment is very welcoming”
“I regularly eat at or order takeaway from this place for dinner. It definitely feels like a hidden gem and deserves more than its current rating. I usually get the 3-item bento with a variety of choices. The food is always delicious, plentiful, and relatively inexpensive for Japanese food in this area. The guy usually manning the place is very kind; one time when I was late in picking up my online order, he had my meal remade so I could eat it fresh. That's top notch service right there.”

“I will start off by saying it's Fantastic!Went on a weekend for brunch and didn't need reservations, we were the first to walk in.The staff makes good recommendations, we started off with the recommended mocktail, which was excellent!I would highly recommend the Malai soya chop..Hair mirch paneer was good too, it had a strong green chili aroma, unlike anything else I have had.Absolutely loved the Rasmisu, must try.Overall great experience but, price is on the higher side.”
“I am excited to share this with everyone who is viewing my review. One of the best places to enjoy bobba here in the town. I fell in love with the ambience first and then ease of ordering, polite staff and tasty bobba ”
“The food was good. This restaurant has a good reputation and will serve good food. For low prices, I highly recommend going at "Happy Hour," where the prices are low. This occurs from 5 through 7, Monday through Friday. This restaurant is good for special occasions, special meetings, or a dinner out.Vegetarian options: If you choose to go on a "Happy Hour" timing, there are only seven options for vegetarians. (Not including drinks.)Parking: Based on when you go, parking could be difficult.”
“This was my first time ever going to any Round Table Pizza place. I signed up for their rewards program and got an offer for 6 free long huge pieces of Garlic Parmesan twists. They were so delicious and completely free. No purchase necessary. The restaurant looks clean enough and there is tons of free parking outside. The seats are a bit dirty and sticky so I gave the Atmosphere category 4/5. Everything else about the environment was great and the employees were professional to me.”
“This place has the best Fried Pork Buns (shēng jīan bāo 生煎包) and braised fried rice with pork I've ever had!!!! I order those 2 dishes every time.The fried pork buns have extremely juicy and tender meat with the perfect flavour and amount of soup. The buns are fried to a beautiful golden brown on the bottom adding a layer of crunchy texture to the tender meat and soup wrapped inside. Each bite is bliss. The braised fried rice is very 香, it has a great flavour and makes you want to keep eating more and more.I've also tried their Spicy Minced Pork Dry Noodles and cauliflower but those were too dry and not as good. They have both a brick and mortar location (seems to be a good location (also nearby Hanabusa Cafe!) with decent environment/seating inside) and are also available on Uber Eats.”
“Incredible food and thoughtful service. My father loves eating lunch here. I brought my friends here today, and the waitresses packed our food into takeout boxes for us. The food here is so comforting, flavorful, and delicious. The vegetables are crisp after being blanched and sauteed. I can see myself having dinner here after a long day at work. Across different sections in the menu, the portions are quite generous.”
“*UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT*I've been going to sake bomb for quite sometime and loved it, However, prior to the management change, they would close around 9pm. NOT ANYMORE! If you need to get your sushi/Japanese with Korean twist cravings satiated, they are open until 2am.My girl and I ordered two sushi rolls, a chicken bento with tempura, and a egg cheese slut (as the name implies very cheesy)The highlight of our experience was the chill ambience and the phenomenal service. Our server Vivi (sorry if we butchered the name) was very sweet and funny af. As Sunnyvale locals it's breath of fresh air to have another spot that is open late and provides great food/service.Expect us more, Sake Bomb! ( next time, I'll try out the sake menu)”
“if you want to buy high quality meat, this is where you go. Friendly people, nice place, and fresh high quality meat. If you are lucky you will find some artisan bread that is so much better than store bought ones.”
“I am writing this after our second go at their weekend buffet in 3 months :). Our family of four has different food and spice preferences but all of us are vegetarians. We each came away feeling very satisfied and full after enjoying their buffet spread on a Saturday.They had a good spread of vegetarian food including Indochinese and south Indian options.One suggestion: get there by noon or sooner to enjoy their lovely buffet sans crowd and noise.Must mention and much credit to the super efficient and friendly staff here !!! My god, they moved and worked like a perfectly coordinated, synchronized swim/dance routine ! It got very busy after 12:30 pm and they were super efficient, quick and friendly starting with seating us, bringing us hot crispy naan, taking away used empty plates in a timely fashion, bringing us a fresh jug of water for refills.....oh wow ! Great team effort !!!Parking: It gets a little difficult to find a spot after noon on the weekends.”

“Had appams with chicken curry and coconut milk. The appams were great. The curry was a little spicy but we balanced it out with the coconut milk. Nice for a quick bite with family.”
“The environment and menu has improved since the new management Monique started, she has improved the menu, the environment, and her personality & compassion really shows in the work she puts into entire place!! I'm not sure the owners see all the upgrades Monique has brought to the place, I'm sure the owner's do not compensate the newer manager for all she brings to the place! She's there pretty much 24/7, and it shows!!”
“I came here on a Saturday around 11:30 for an early lunch. I ordered the Thali - I simply loved it. The variety of food was staggering - ridge gourds curry, plantain curry etc were new to me in a thaali. Other restaurants typically offer the same fare - carrot/beans, aloo etc Contents of Thali- rice, choice of Poori/chappathi, dal (yum!), ridgeourd curry, plantain curry, sambhar, rasam (refreshing!), 2 types of pakoda and frymes. Helps that it was unlimited. The food was also not too spicy and most of it can be served to a baby. The restaurant ambience was also nice. Love the paintings and clean space. The wait staff were also so pleasing and nice and served every item with a smile. I really loved this place and cannot recommend it enough”

“One of the only locations that still has Reserve beans. Looked fairly busy when I dropped in to pick up mid-morning. I usually don't get anything else here so I can't speak to the service times, however I usually don't get an acknowledgement or even eye contact when I pick up my order.”
“Delicious burgers and fries. And they have diet Dr Pepper which is my favorite. Lots of seating to choose from. Even smaller more private rooms to eat in. I'd go here again.”
“Food is pretty good and well presented. Large portions, authentic flavor. Prices are a little high for my taste and no drinks included in price but as a treat it is worth it. If one doesn't have an enormous appetite perhaps you can share one dish as they are large plates. You can always order more and the food comes out pretty speedy.Love the delicious salsa selection for chips and your meal (chips are warmed and free) though be mindful they are spicier than most other places.Gets crowded because it's good food but it can get loud and hectic. Bring cash to tip they don't let you sign for it.”
“Large space, but very quiet for dinner. Apparently their main business is lunch and special events. Servings at dinner are large, so come hungry. I had the Moussaka and it was quite good.”
“Amazing cakes. The chocolate ganache and other cakes that we had weren't overly greasy. Right amount of chocolate. I don't like cakes that are too sweet. So, these worked the best. Love it and will visit again.”
“This place is amazing and a must try for Filipino food! My favorites are the pork adobo and sour soup. The soup is so good I've tried to make it at home, but nothing compares, instant comfort with one slurp.”

“I will start off by saying it's Fantastic!Went on a weekend for brunch and didn't need reservations, we were the first to walk in.The staff makes good recommendations, we started off with the recommended mocktail, which was excellent!I would highly recommend the Malai soya chop..Hair mirch paneer was good too, it had a strong green chili aroma, unlike anything else I have had.Absolutely loved the Rasmisu, must try.Overall great experience but, price is on the higher side.”

“Wow, I really enjoyed my dinner. We stumbled into this place and it turned out so good. It’s basically American done really well.Order at the counter, find a seat and your food comes in about 10 minutes. They have a bunch of craft beers but I didn’t try any this time.They have a ton of dishes but we opted to both get steak. And it was cooked very well. Yet and well seasoned. Good portion size including the sides.Lots of seating. But a little loud. And a little cold in the main hall. The outdoor one (well, truly indoor) has heating lamps which help a lot.Looking forward to future visits.”

“Absolutely, here's a review for Mom's Biryani:Mom's Biryani serves up delicious and authentic Indian biryanis that won't disappoint. The portions are generous, enough to satisfy even the heartiest appetites, and the value is unbeatable. But what truly sets Mom's Biryani apart is the warm hospitality and the rich, flavorful biryanis that taste like something straight out of a home kitchen.I recommend trying their Gongura Chicken Biryani for a unique and tangy experience. You won't be disappointed!”
“The food truck has been there for a while and thought of trying this time. The menu is vast variety of things from chaat to full meals.We ordered Paani Puri and Chole bhature. Both of them were extremely good.Have to say I prefer the style they have for Paani Puri and have not gotten swayed by the trend of different type of waters.Chole bhature were amazing as well. The chole were well done and bhature weren’t too oily and didn’t taste like puri.Highly recommend both these. Will try other items as well in future visits”
“I would consider this a hidden gem in Sunnyvale that needs more attention. If you're looking for a cake for a special occasion, you have to check out this shop. This is an Asian and woman-owned bakery (and the workers are soo sweet) that offers a unique variety of flavored cakes. I loved the little tea bar they had (complimentary for dine-in) and enjoyed looking at all the plants and other small gift items they had around the shop available for purchase.* Creme Brulee Crepe Cake* Earl Grey Crepe Cake* Salted Egg & Pork Sung Crepe Cake* Durian Mochi Balls* Avocado Molten Cake”

“Margarita Taqueria is a taco truck located in a parking lot. There are tables around a liquor store that you can eat at. One of the best tacos I ever! Meat was well seasoned and the portion size of the meat was good. I got the chipotle and green sauce and it was amazing. The complementary pickled red onions was a nice palate cleanser. I highly recommend getting the birria soup. It came with large chunks of tender meat, tortilla, white onions, cilantro, and chili. There was so much flavor in the soup. My friends got the super burrito and it was huge!!! It was the size of their forearms. Definitely worth the price.”
“This Southern Indian food restaurant is the best! Everything from idlis to dosas to chaats are very authentic. Just tried it for the first time and will definitely come back.

“Falafel STOP has been consistently good over the years. The only thing I can say with confidence is that if you like this type of food, you'll love it. Otherwise, it may not be your cup of tea.”
“We ordered rava masala dosa and masala dosa along with pongal. 2 filter coffees to finish off the meal like any typical desi would. Portion sizes were enormous!Rava dosa and pongal were good and we're quite authentic but the masala dosa was just very ordinary. The coconut chutney was missing tadka and could've been made better. Coffee was cringy - too bitter regardless of the sugar we dumped into it to sweeten it up. I would go back for a late breakfast on a lazy weekend. Wouldn't promise anybody a super-duper Indian tiffin experience but is definitely a good get -away when you're not in India.”
“This place is just fantastic! What a lovely experience from the moment we walked through the door. The chef is fantastic! Great big full service well appointed bar. First class service. Five star food.”
“Delicious and flavorful paneer wrap. Customer service is top tier. The older gentleman was very friendly and kind. How refreshing to get wonderful customer service! Area around the food truck was clean. Thank you! Support local businesses!”
“Updated review:After a long day at work, we came to Chaat bhavan for dinner. Was able to quickly get a table as it was a weekday, don't expect the same on weekends as there are long waits. We ordered the House Thali and it was definitely tasty and bang for our buck. Two of us ate it along with extra paratha on the side. They also gave us complementary dessert to try which was also very good. Overall, will definitely be revisiting the place.Older review:Food is of very good taste and high quality. The restaurant is very neat and the servers are courteous. But they take too long sometimes for a take out. Tends to get very crowded on Sunday nights.”

“Amazing kebab it's super juicy with right amount of spice. I would recommend their kebab set which come with the kaali ghee dal. The owner Jiten and the staff were quite cordial and made the experience quite satisfactory.”
“Very happy to have discovered this spot so close to home. They have a 7-10 pm happy hour with draft suntory beer and small bites menu every weekend, so prices are quite reasonable. The standouts: The beef tongue was one of the best i've had, tender, flavourful, and you get a good amount for the price. (5/5) The grilled mochi - my gf said she would come back just for this, its a must try. (5/5) The soba panna cotta - an amazing dessert, not too sweet, great nutty notes, fun jiggly texture. (5/5) The not so good: Takowasa had some pieces that were offputtingly mushy, and was rather small - (2/5) Chicken skin was flavourless and overdone, but at least cheap. (2/5)”
“This spot is a hidden gem in the Bay Area. Recently opened in Sunnyvale, it sits next to a cluster of diverse food trucks. My experience with their Malai Chaap and Tawa Noodle Burger was delightful, but the Malai Chaap was truly exceptional. The creamy yet flavorful texture, complemented by melt-in-the-mouth chaap pieces, marinated, charred, and bathed in a deliciously creamy and spicy gravy, was extraordinary. Also, the portion size was generous for the price. The flavor resembled the authentic flavors of North India. This is not only a must-try food truck for chaap lovers but also for people who want to try it for the first time.”
“Fun place for a quick outing. Not an indictment on this particular location but just the brand, I personally wish there were more holes for the table top golf. That was way more fun for me personally as opposed to the mini golf. Oh and customer service was welcoming and friendly.”
“Taco Bell serves flavorful fast food with quick service, a casual atmosphere, and affordable prices, creating a convenient and satisfying dining experience. They offer exclusive orders on their apps, very convenient for pick up!”
