The food here is perfectly decent, yummy even. And for the price, it's great! I would certainly eat here again. I ordered a burger and for less than $9, I got a satisfying meal. Everything tasted just like you would expect. It didn't blow my mind, but it was a good burger. The service is fast and polite. I have nothing to complain about there. They take Apple Pay and let you occupy your table for as long as you want. The ambiance may leave something to be desired. It's just a simple diner with a few tables and a small kitchen. It's great if you want a cheap meal in a hurry, but it might not be the most exciting place to bring friends to enjoy a restaurant meal.

The kind of flavor only an old, greasy griddle can give you... And I mean that in the best way possible. This is a no frills breakfast and lunch spot with very good prices and friendly service. I opted for the bacon breakfast burrito and was not disappointed. The tortilla had good grill marks and the eggs were fluffy and perfectly wrapped around bacon and hash browns. Can't ask for much more than that! I took it to go because I was on the road but there are a couple tables inside. Not the greatest seating section so maybe go find a park if you need a certain ambiance.

Food here is made with love and never disappoints! I've been coming here for many years and this place always has that home cooked vibe. Don't be deterred by the hole in the hall feel, these women behind the counter know what they're doing. I will be returning weekly for their bacon breakfast burritos.

Gus's breakfast sandwich with bacon on white, no hot sauce, no hash browns. Think: BLT with an egg and cheese. The best!!

Excellent breakfast sandwich, every time! Pretty good burgers too. Efficient service.

Are used to come this establishment over 20 years ago. I felt like reminiscing over my childhood and decided to take a drive. What a disappointment... Considering I cam all the way from Gilroy. I wish I would've gone to the taco place next-door Rico's tacos. I looked at all the different menu photos nothing looked very appetizing. A lot of the photos do not correlate what is up on their menu. Not sure what is available and what's not. I decided to order their patty melt. What can you possibly screw up on a patty melt? I asked how it was prepared I was told with mayo, sauce, tomato and lettuce... Which is not what a traditional patty melt is. A patty melt is a hamburger patty with grilled onions, Swiss cheese (it has holes) and thousand Island dressing between two toasted slices of rye bread. Sometimes it includes pickles. When I opened up my sandwich to take a look at it... It was pathetic... Minimal grilled onions and you can't even called them grilled because there was no color to them... Grilled onions usually have a brown caramel color... the cheese wasn't even melted...Zip zero nada. With great sadness and disappointment I walked up to the owner/cook and asked a bout the sauce, she became very rude and offensive and said I told you there was only mayo. I asked by chance if they had any thousand Island dressing and she stated "no, only ranch." I took the ranch and thought that would maybe be helpful. I decided to taste it before spreading it on my dry melt, it was just some cheap bottled sauce it tasted nasty I decided just to eat my poor little patty melt the way it was given to me Unfortunately, they are condiment bar does not exist. There are packets of salt, pepper, and ketchup. If there would've been some mayo and relish I could've made my own thousand Island dressing. I am so disgusted. I would not come back to this location ever, for anything. Maybe they do a decent breakfast... I can get decent a lot closer to home.

Gosh it's been years since I've been to Gus's Meat & Deli. Apparently he no longer owns it "for like the last 13 years!!!, boy have I been out of the loop" Gus use to have Gyro meat on a spike over his stove that he would slice. "No longer" (I digress) Inside they have an easy to read menu and great pictures of the food items on the wall. I ordered my old go to the Gyro in a pita wrap (comes with Chunks of Gyro meat, raw onions, tomatoes and some kind of sauce) overall I thought it was quite good. Wifey ordered the Gus's special 3 eggs, 2 slices of bread, hash browns, bacon and sausage. The eggs were good the hash browns (frozen) the bacon rubbery sad face definitely not the Gus's of yesteryears. The service was good 4 stars The hood top was filthy "and I mean F-I-l-t-h-y" Overall 2.5 stars. I would have gave them 3 if the stove top was clean.

I was especially impressed by the wide variety of imported cheeses, French Isigny AOP butter, beautifully marbled American Wagyu steaks, Berkeley-made NY-style bagels, Rosa Brothers glass-bottled milk, and even whole rabbit. Every aisle had something unique to discover. The quality of the products is excellent, and it's a great place to shop if you enjoy cooking or putting together a cheese board. Even the kitchen towels and small gift items were thoughtfully curated, adding to the market's cozy atmosphere. If you're looking for premium ingredients and a grocery shopping experience that's a little different from the big chain stores, Zanotto's is absolutely worth the visit. I'll definitely be coming back for the butter, cheese, and steaks!

I love how each location is slightly different from each other. The employees are literally the nicest people, always soooo friendly and efficient when I order from the counter.

I love the Pesto chicken sandwich (which is not made at the Rose garden location), the caprese baguette, chicken mozzarella, salami & Brie, basically cannot go wrong with any of them. This Willow Glen location has a bunch of pre made meals too from burritos to lasagna to little snack boxes. And a salad bar which I always need to get. Love the vibe it's like family owned but still modern in today's ages.

First off, this place has finally hit door dash!!…read more Second off, who runs out of shawarma on a Monday by 2pm?! Can't wait to try it in the future. Only downfall was no sauce for the fries. I am very glad I went with the plate so I can make mini bites. Piece of pita with hummus slathered on it. Place some cucumber salad on it and top it with half a falafel. Perfection!

I had a friend visiting from out of town who eats kosher, and apparently, this is THE kosher spot…read morein San Jose. She let me know that some places say "kosher style," but that doesn't mean that they actually serve kosher food! They have both a market full of kosher foods and a cafe. The menu is kind of simple: your choice of meat, which you can get as a sandwich or a plate. Unfortunately, they were out of kabobs when we went, which was my first choice. I went with the chicken schnitzel as a plate because I was interested in the various salads. I chose rice instead of fries, and they gave me a ton of rice! Everything was made to order. The schnitzel was pounded flat and delicious. I liked a lot of the side salads, including one that was red cabbage-based. I bought something similar at the market - hoping it tastes as good. This place is not fancy on the inside, with long group tables, but there were a lot of people coming in either eating lunch there or grabbing it to go. I enjoyed what I ate and will want to come back and try something else next time (hopefully the kabobs).

From the moment we walked in, the hospitality was beyond top-tier. Everyone was welcoming and friendly, and the service was incredibly quick. We ended up purchasing a few extra items on the side, including some jerky for our dogs, and we can't wait to get home and see them enjoy their special treats too! To top everything off, Luke personally gave us a small gift. That thoughtful gesture really made our first visit feel special and showed us the kind of customer service and hospitality this place is all about. We will DEFINITELY be returning and telling all of our friends and family about this place. We can't wait to share it on our story and spread the word throughout the community. If you haven't been to Los Gatos Meats & Smokehouse yet, it is absolutely worth a visit. Great service, amazing hospitality, and an overall awesome experience. Thank you, Luke and the entire team for making our first visit one to remember! We'll definitely be back!
