    Skirt steak
    Alina H.

    We were staying at this hotel and decided to have dinner at Broma. Skirt Steak - Nicely cooked with a flavorful chimichurri sauce that added a fresh balance. Sherry Braised Pork Shank - The meat was tender and easily pulled off the bone, and the polenta it came with was rich and perfectly creamy. Smoked Salmon & Caviar - A bit too salty for my taste, so this one didn't quite hit compared to the others. The meat dishes were definitely worth it, especially with the generous portions. Overall, a good dinner option if you're in the area or staying nearby -- not necessarily a destination spot, but an easy choice.

    Yes, this place is in a hotel and the initial front entrance feels a bit off but the food was delightful. The servers were super helpful in giving options for food recommendations and drink pairings too. I came here to celebrate a special occasion and they did not disappoint with congratulating me and making me feel welcomed. I'd say the tom kha mussels were the most delicious but we definitely could have used more bread. Unfortunately they said that if we wanted more bread, we'd have to buy another serving. That was a huge bummer. Other than that, I would say I would put all the food at a 4/5 in flavor and 3/5 to account for costs. All said, I'd come back to try new menu options when given the chance .

    Food is pretty good with lots of shareable options. My pasta plate was pretty good, with good textures and flavors. I really liked some of the appetizers, though the liver mousse and mussels were a bit gamey for my taste. The presentation of the dishes was quite photogenic. Service was fantastic, and the interior feels pretty fancy, but nothing stood out particularly. Process are reasonable. What I really enjoyed was how easy it was to make a reservation.

    Chicken Adobo
    Isaac C.

    Signature old-fashioned was great, I have never seen branded ice before. The restaurant should just get a 10 out of 10 just for that. It has to be a reflection of their Michelin star chef. The chicken adobo is as good as little any little corner spot (iykyk). Bedded into a great sauce, the adobo is sweet, smoky and hearty all at the same time cook to perfection. I don't think that you can go wrong with making this selection. Smash burger was a solid selection, but it wasn't as good as the chicken adobo. Next time we'll make sure to explore more the drink menu and also some of the other items on the food menu.

    Genuinely one of the best meals I've ever had in my entire life. The California bread service with the garlic butter was unreal. Just delicate, beautiful flavors. I also had the pasta allá gricia and it was superb. Gorgeous peas just absolutely beautiful summer flavors that reminded me of my childhood eating peas from my grandfather's garden. The pasta was perfectly cooked. I can't overstate how good this food was. I'm so happy. Thank you to whomever made this food. You're a beautiful person and a legend.

    Ok I was so surprised by this spot. We went here after several drinks at sports page bar across the street to have a bite to eat. They have a beautiful restaurant that's part of the Shashi hotel. They have several specialty cocktails and flights to enjoy. I enjoyed the bolognese This would be a great date night spot, as they also have a piano in the back. Gorgeous bathrooms too

    We were guests at the hotel and decided to have dinner at Broma. Excellent food and service in a modern and relaxing vibe. We ordered the beet salad, bread basket, skirt steak, tom kha mussels, and mushroom risotto. All the plates were presented very well and tasted absolutely delicious. Our server, James K, was also wonderful. James was attentive and anticipated our needs in a timely manner. We would come back.

    Tried this place for dinner! Nice cozy ambience, reasonable service! Didnt have that many vegetarian options! Food was quite bland! No chili flakes nor French fries on the menu or in the kitchen! Online menu is outdated! Please check with the server on exact details! Wait can be longer. Didnt have salt pepper on the table as default setup. Kids pasta / noodles were quite bland! Veg burger and the choco cake was the highlight hence the 2 stars ! Def area of improvement.

    Another unforgettable visit to Broma! Two dishes were extraordinary today: - charred broccoli gnudi: the char is so pleasantly strong that it made my head spin. I've no idea what techniques they use to make gnudi with broccoli but yet so smooth. - lemon cheesecake: the sauce had a delicate balance of acid + bitter to it and made every bite irresistible. If you look at photos in my previous reviews you'll notice an older version of the cheesecake, which was also fantastic, but they just keep innovating and improving. One thing I didn't like today was the eel barbocoa. The skin was impossible to cut through and very chewy. I felt the idea might've worked if they made it bite-sized. Flesh texture and Overall flavor was great, though.

    The food here is tasty, but WAY too small and expensive for what it is. I came here with a group last night and everything on the menu sounded delicious, but we all had to go out to eat somewhere else afterwards because all of us were starving when we left. I ordered the Day Boat Scallop Crudo which was very delicious, but about two tablespoons of food at most. The majority of the bowl is just a foam garnish. Even for a high end restaurant, $26 for what arrived on my plate is preposterous. They also advertise this as "shared plates", but there is no way to share many of these dishes because they are so tiny. All of the staff members were wonderful, but I won't be back because of the value.

    Tried Broma since I was staying at Shashi hotel and they gave a meal credit. The service was excellent and I hate only giving it 3 stars but the food was just not our taste. Broma is set as Spanish tapas so we had the hamachi crudo small plate which was our favorite plate, though very spicy! We also had the hand formed Cavatelli (large plate) which we didn't like. It didn't have any flavor and we couldn't finish it despite us splitting the dish. For dessert, we had the salted caramel chocolate tart which was good but super rich, thank goodness we split that! We also ordered the flan but it tasted really weird and too strong of orange so we couldn't take more than 2 bites each. All in all, I really appreciate the service and they were really accommodating when they saw we weren't liking the dishes. But I probably won't be back to Broma.

    Nice comfortable outdoor space that is pup friendly. Service was meh, took forever to get them to bring us our check - maybe because we were sitting outside vs inside. Food was decent, a tad pricy, drinks were decent. Feels more like a place for work related event vs intimate friends gathering. Total came to approx $80/person.

    Hamachi Crudo (Seasonal)
    Sergio P.

    Broma was in my list for quite a while even before we moved to Mountain View but never got around to make so once we became locals we decided it was a must to go and try Broma. We went in around 5:30pm and the place not that busy there were people from the hotel Broma is located at and because there was a concert at Shoreline that day. We started by ordering a Paloma for my wife and a Cantarito. They were both really good basically the Cantarito is a Paloma but swagged out. For appetizers we ordered their Hamachi Crudo and their Tom Kha Mussels. The Hamachi Crudo which was seasonal had stone fruits, cucumbers, cantaloupe, herbs and chili oil but it was lacking salt & acid so the flavors didn't really tie together or came forward together. Tom Kha Mussels were good on flavor basically tased like a seafood Tom Kha soup but the mussels were cold so the broth felt fattier since the fats coagulated and the mussels were chewy, once again I don't mind my food cold I am used to it but my wife need her food at least warm but ideally hot. For our entree we just shared their Skirt Steak plate which is Vietnamese influenced. The stake was cooked medium rare but once again it was a bit cold very tasty and very tender but it was not warm so as we ate the meat became harder to chew. Overall we liked the ambiance, the hotel is beautiful and their outdoor sitting is beautiful also, their drinks were great I feel like that's what saved the experience because I really didn't feel like complaint about the food to them because we are going to give them another try sometime in the future. The prices are a bit steep since the bar and the restaurant are inside of a boutique hotel called the Shashi located right next to Google HQ. For 2 rounds of drinks (4 total), 2 appetizers and 1 entree it was around $180-$200 with tip included. We will give them a try again since their two hot dishes were cold and I will update this review.

Crispy chicken + gochujang honey + brioche + a fried egg? Whoever came up with this understood the assignment. My mom got the Shrimp Po' Boy, and my nephew went for the BLT. Everything coming out of the kitchen looked better than the last thing. The umami fries deserve their own paragraph because we kept ordering them. And ordering them again. And then somehow ordering them AGAIN. At some point I think the fries just became part of the family. We also tried the deviled eggs with tobiko, which were SO good! But let's talk about the drinks because this is where things got dangerous. Our server Sam was AMAZING. He was attentive without hovering, knew the menu, and gave us recommendations that were genuinely spot-on. We trusted him completely by the end of the meal, which is how we ended up trying several cocktails. My favorite was the Low rider because I'm a mezcal girly and the espresso martini was especially good definitely one of the better ones I've had. I loved the different ingredients they use, including Ola Coffee, which gave it something a little different. And then Sam recommended the whiskey butter cake. That cake was the perfect ending. Every recommendation he gave us was a hit, so at this point I would probably let Sam plan my entire brunch menu. We had such a fun family brunch and genuinely left talking about how much we enjoyed everything. Great food, great cocktails, great service, and a staff member who clearly knows how to make people have a good time. The ambiance was also such a vibe. The interior is really cute and we got seated in a booth, which made it feel extra cozy and perfect for hanging out and enjoying brunch. I could totally see this being a great spot for family brunch, drinks with friends, or even a cute date. It has that kind of atmosphere where you can dress it up a little or keep it casual and still feel right at home. 10/10 would brunch here again.

We tried the loco moco and chicken and waffles instead. Both were good and portions are average sized. Usually we can't finish brunch between the 2 of us but this was easily consumed with no leftovers. The chicken and waffles came with matcha butter which was a nice touch. Overall a safe choice for brunch and I'm interested in coming back to try some of their lunch/dinner options!

It wasn't busy so I was surprised at how awful the service was. The young man who seated us looked like he hated life. I should've known that his vibe was only the beginning. Our evening went downhill from there...After our order was taken, and our food brought out, we never saw our server again. I finished my prosecco and never got the opportunity to order a second glass. Eventually, I told my 6-year-old to wait while I went and asked for a dessert menu. At which point I mentioned that we never saw our server. The woman at the stand handed me dessert menus and said someone would be with us shortly. A different server came and took our dessert order. But after dessert was brought to us, once again we were ignored. When I tell you that we could've gotten up and left and never paid, nobody would have noticed. That's how much we were ignored. I was fucking pissed at this point. I got up with my child to go complain when the server quickly noticed and asked if everything was ok...fuck no it's not ok! Quickly gave him my room number and said that the evenings service was atrocious. And we walked away. And if the service was bad, the food was worse. When I tell you a DiGiorno pizza is better than their rendition of a margarita pizza, it's not an exaggeration. My pizza literally had four tiny sprigs of basil. And their olive paste garnish on it is unnecessary. Their twist on the margarita pizza was not appetizing. I can't complain about their fries though. It was basically the only thing we ate that we enjoyed. Their guacamole was rough too. Lacked flavor. The dessert was the biggest disappointment, food-wise. It appeared to be a brownie baked on a chocolate chip cookie, cut into a pie slice. It was HARD. I gave up trying to get my spoon through it. Needed a steak knife. The ice cream was fine. After this experience, we decided we would not be eating at the restaurant for the rest of our time at the hotel. We went and picked up food or ordered in. The bartenders seemed nice, but once the afternoon hit, my daughter had to wait over 30 minutes for a Shirley Temple to be brought to the pool. After waiting too long I decided to get up and go to the bar and ask what was going on. Her Shirley Temple was sitting there at the bar, and they had accidentally put it in a typical glass, which is not permitted at the pool. The bartender apologized because the server who had taken my order at the pool, did not relay to the bartender that the order was for the pool area. All in all, I would never eat here again. As a local, it's disappointing because the ambience is nice. But the food is overpriced and not even close to being good. And as for the service? My God. This was officially the worst restaurant I have ever eaten at. Ever. When the manager of the hotel asked how our stay was, I casually mentioned that the restaurant was lacking in a lot of ways. But I didn't expand on the experience. However, I was surprised to see that the manager had taken off the meals from the charges to my room when I checked out. And I sincerely appreciate that. I never asked for it, but was appreciative as it was unexpected. Bottom line. The hotel is a nice stay, and I plan on staying again. But you couldn't pay me to eat at that restaurant.

Definitely a family style dinner, order multiple things to try! Made a reservation couple weeks in advance for a week night dinner for 2. Celebrated our anniversary and couldn't be more happy we came to Ethel's Fancy. Service was great, everyone was friendly and explained the menu and process. Helped making some personal recommendations and the food came out quickly. The only dish that came out very slowly was the dessert, we did wait about 25 - 30 minutes just for the softserve, but all other dishes came out in a moderate time. Rouge de Bordeaux Milk Bread, comes with cultured amazake butter and some salt. Comes out super warm, puffy, and soft. Very nice pull and the butter is super decadent. Very great take on a japanese shokupan, we were hesitant at first, but it makes for a good appetizer 5:5 Warm Sesame Pancakes were like those mini sesame mochi pancakes at chinese dim sum, but the texture was slightly airy. The sauce to accompany it was unlike anything i've had, smoked trout, avocado and yuzu. The avocado was not over powering and the cream on top was whipped. Amazing pairing. 5/5 Sashimi of Kanpachi, japanese cucumber salad as the base and dressing with the kanpachi sashimi. I will say this was the weakest dish of the night. While still good, it was a bit too tart, it overpowered the other natural flavors. Fish was still very good, tender and not fishy, but again, over powered but all the tartness in the dish. 3/5 Yellowfin Tuna on sushi rice - this was a great shareable plate of upscale poke. The tuna was great, no fishy taste, perfectly seasoned and the smoked kira had an amazing pop of flavor. Very rich and decadent dish, absolutely loved the harmony of a slight smokey flavor to the nice rich, umami savoriness. 5/5 Crispy Caledonian Prawns - Absolute star of the night. We could not stop talking about these prawns. Big plump prawns, fried perfectly, where the prawn itself was not dry but the shell had a shatteringly crispy exterior definitely slightly coated with a starch to give it a nice crunch. The chili ramp sunomono was a great touch, not spicy at all but added a great touch of flavor that complimented the crispy prawns. Could devour plates of these! 6/5! Sword-Fish Katsu Style - A great take with sword fish, flakey but not overcooked, great thin crispy katsu. Accompanied by kumquat and cauliflower, helps cut down the greasiness. The sauce with it was a buttery tart sauce. This was a lot better where the tartness helped the fried fish. It was like eating a fried fish burger without the buns. I really enjoyed this one. 5/5 Lastly we ordered a softserve with peaches, shokupan croutons and a caramel dressing. We had to wait about 25 minutes just for the small softserve so we were a bit surprised as other dishes came out relatively quickly or in an orderly fashion. It still tasted great as a little small dessert but definitely was surprised by how long it took. 3/5 Overall, we were very happy with our experience at Ethel's and it definitely lives up to the standard it sets. I can't wait for other new dishes to try and come back in the future.

Not the traditional bene... no hollandaise sauce.. it is topped with pico de gallo instead. All in all ... great breakfast. Would I go back? Yes. Side note: one just opened in downtown SJ. I will need to check that on out too sometime.

    Came for an anniversary dinner and could not be more impressed with the food and service. So glad…read morewe chose to celebrate here. The location is in an assuming plaza with plenty of parking in the parking lot. Outside does not look like much but the interior is cozy and intimate. Restroom is outside the restaurant and is shared with the building. They have a prefix menu only that rotates according to the chef and drink menu with a large selection of wine. Chef's are making the dishes right behind the bar. Everything we had was incredibly flavorful and unexpected. I could not put in to words how enjoyable and complex the flavors were. Highly recommend trying this restaurant.

    Month of July: Thai fusion! I've been meaning to come here…read morefor so long and have been patiently waiting for a monthly menu that catches my eye. This july it was thai! The restaurant is pretty small inside, and has 2 seating times: 530 and 8. It's a prix fixe menu but you also have some options to add to it. Larb Bibim Guksu: cold noodle dish that had szechuan ground lamb , shiso, and heirloom tomatoes - made for such a refreshing start to the meal. Fishcake tom yum: This was my absolute favorite dish. The cabbage wrapped fish was tender and juicy and the broth was so incredibly flavorful. I loved this dish, no notes Pork jowl: The pork was good, but I think compared to the other dishes on the menu, the least inventive and new. Solid dish but creativity wise I wasn't particularly sold. Ecuadorian shrimp (add on): I love some shrimp! the red curry sauce on these shrimp was super yum and it was nice that they gave you a small finger towel/wipe for afterwards Pandan Coconut Bingsu: This was an amazing dessert!!!! I am not a dessert person whatsoever but this really did it. There was a pandan bingsu (v finely shaved ice) with coconut foam on top. There was red bean also at the bottom center of the ice. The dish felt incredibly balanced and light. Every bite felt like a cloud that disappeared on your tongue. 10/10 dessert Overall it was a great experience and I'm incredibly happy with the creativity of the menu and the execution. Would love to come back to try another menu :)

    Long overdue review because we've been to Orchard City Kitchen a few times, and our latest visit…read morewas the perfect excuse to finally write one. We came for a casual weekday lunch to celebrate our 22nd anniversary after spending the whole morning at a day spa. We sat outside and enjoyed a little bit of everything. The blackened hamachi tataki was refreshing and perfect for a summer lunch. Their take on steak and eggs, deviled eggs topped with Wagyu, is so simple but packs a punch. The Korean fried chicken was crunchy with a tangy sauce and great for sharing. And of course, we had to get the BBB, which is always a must for us! After all that, we shared the cheesesteak sandwich and I honestly thought I was going to tap out, but it wasn't heavy at all. It was so good that we finished the whole thing. Somehow, we even had room for Beth's hand pie, a delicious peach compote that tasted like a churro and peach pie had a baby. The cocktails were also a highlight. I had the Coco Julius, which is dangerously good because it's so smooth, fruity, and refreshing with orange and pineapple. Hubby had the La Ola with strawberries and hibiscus. Another great meal at OCK!
