    My boyfriend and I finally got to try Kenny's Cafe this past Sunday morning. We first tried to go there about a month ago, but he just closed. So this time we finally got there earlier! I think we got there around 9am, and it was empty. We were enthusiastically greeted by Kenny, and he noticed Meatball, our English Bulldog, who was chilling in the car right away. We all went out to take a selfie! Hahaha :) We ordered the Spam Breakfast Burrito and Bulgogi Breakfast Burrito. We also grabbed a Snapple Apple and the Mango Aloe Drink. There was a bit of a wait as Kenny is a one man show. But it's all good. While we were waiting, more and more people came in. Kenny said that we were lucky charms as we brought more customers in! Lol... We both loved the Spam Breakfast Burrito! It was freaking delicious! The Bulgogi was a bit on the sweeter side and was very decadent. I couldn't finish it as I was so full! Lol.. The total came out to $40 for the food and drinks. It was a good price! I definitely want to try the #1 Breakfast Burrito Ever next time. This spot is definitely one of a kind, and Kenny is such fun, happy, and quirky dude! I think later on his son came in to help out so that was good. Parking was easy as we parked right in front of the place on the street. If you're looking for some bomb.com breakfast burrito, definitely check out this place! :)

    Great steak burrito, so filling.

    We had the number 5, which is a steak, egg, cheese and potato burrito. Kenny makes a large burrito with a side of kimchi salsa, yum. We couldn't finish our burritos, they're delicious, and hit the spot. Kenny is very friendly, with great conversation. His restaruant is filled with photos everywhere, even on the ceiling, like wallpaper. I'm glad I picked this place.

    Kenny is the sweetest man, very kind, and you can tell that he loves to cook and make people happy. I came in on a Monday - MLK day so it was quite busy. He made several comments about how it was like old times. The place had photos wall to wall of past customers. Can be overwhelming for some, but there's a lot of pride there as well. Given he was really busy, service was a bit slower. It would be great if he had more help to meet the demand. Overall, I would come back for the delicious food (number 1 and 3 were delicious and portions are huge) and to support such a sweet and passionate man.

    Stopped by on a Saturday around 11:15am and a few parties were there. It was just Kenny, the owner, by himself so he was in the kitchen when I arrived. Once he came back out to the front, he took my order and the orders of the parties behind me before going off to the kitchen again. So just a heads up that you'll need to wait for him to come out if he's in the kitchen, and will have to wait ~10-15 min for your burritos after ordering. Super friendly guy! A few tables inside. Got the #1 bacon + sausage burrito and #2 steak breakfast burrito. I personally liked the steak breakfast burrito better just because I personally like steak better than sausage. He called it the bulgogi burrito but it didn't really have the usual marinated bulgogi flavor and just tasted like plain steak. I think potatoes were also on the bland side and could've been more flavorful. Overall both burritos were still solid and I really appreciated how the tortillas were grilled to extra crispy. Came with a kimchi salsa which was quite spicy, added a nice kick.

    I worked nearby for years, and I am so disappointed that I never came here before. This is the definition of a top hole in the wall. Kenny is so full of life and comes to talk to every single customer that comes in and makes you laugh every time. The food itself is delicious! I need to come back to try the Philly cheesesteak next time, but this time I came for breakfast and got them breakfast steak burrito and it was phenomenal. He makes his own hot sauce to go along with it as well, which was amazing. Definitely coming back again

    I decided to try a new restaurant for brunch and chose Kenny's Cafe. We parked outside on the curb, and there was plenty of parking. The interior of the restaurant had a couple of tables, and it was covered in pictures of Kenny and his customers over the years; very sweet! I ordered the #1 breakfast burrito, and my boyfriend ordered the #2 steak breakfast burrito. It seems Kenny is the only one to be making the food, so that is something to keep in mind if you are wondering about the service. Since I went on a Sunday with not much to do, I didn't mind the wait. The #1 breakfast burrito was super hefty, with plenty of sausage, bacon, potatoes, and onions. I only ate half for breakfast, and it kept me full for hours! The filling was super flavorful; my only complaint was that the sausages were a little too big for my bite. The #2 steak burrito was good too, and I think I enjoyed that one more than the #1 breakfast burrito. The hot sauce paired so well with the burrito; it was the perfect amount of spice, savory, and acidity, and it added a refreshing taste to the greasy burrito. We had the honor of speaking to Kenny before leaving, and you can tell his passion is serving his customers with delicious food; he told us it's not about making money, and he loves his restaurant and customers with all his heart. Truly an amazing business owner and chef, and I can't wait to frequent his cafe more to try more burritos and sandwiches!

    The best way to describe Kenny is a force of nature; the restaurant, his own personal snow globe. I first became aware of Kenny's Cafe through social media a few years ago and only now got around to trying it. Street parking is available, and once you walk into his violently American themed cafe his choice of decor speaks for itself. A whiteboard menu on the wall lists 14 items, but he'll insist he can make anything you want as long as he has the ingredients. When I say insist, I mean it. As the only employee, it's clear to see that Kenny does this purely for the love of the game rather than the players. If you take too long to order, he'll tell you. If you have questions, he'll probably shut them down and just point at the text, saying he doesn't have all day in his signature irritated but inoffensive tone. He'll then pop into the kitchen, make your food for 15 minutes, and come out with a takeout box and a handheld POS. After you pay, he'll usher you into a selfie and post it on his instagram with a "Good morning [name]." I am not sure if this step is optional and did not want to find out, so now my face and mispelled name are buried somewhere in his 18,000+ posts. Oh yeah, I got food too. I ordered the kimchi sausage steak burrito and was pleasantly surprised. The burrito itself was pretty good save for frequent chunks of gristle that masqueraded as steak, but if you cover anything with enough salsa (which was sufficiently spicy and chunky) it becomes palatable I guess. A welcome peculiarity of the Bay Area with a very interesting past. Very happy I was able to make it.

    The #1 eggs, bacon, eggs, potato sausage, cheese burrito
    My L.

    It was very early in the morning and my options were limited. And I found myself in an unfamiliar area looking for food at six in the morning.. I walked in. It was a little Larry. It's not your typical café looking type of place. There are pictures everywhere, including the ceiling. There are a lot of flags and nontraditional items that you see at a café as far as ambience, but it is well lit. it's on a very busy thorough affair. I went in the menu was simple about 12 or 14 items listed very basic quick café style food burgers breakfast sandwiches breakfast burritos. I ordered the number one, which is the breakfast burrito with bacon and sausage. It comes with potatoes, cheese, and eggs. I wasn't expecting much. They have a plethora of drink option which also include beer ironically. Needless to say, the food was phenomenal and the dipping jalapeño sauce seems to be homemade was delicious a compliment the whale grilled burrito outer shell very well. The potatoes tasted like the small red rustic potatoes. I'm not sure if they were but that's what they taste like they were well seasoned. The meat was delicious. The sausage was authentic everything about this place was phenomenal. The man I met must be Kenny. He said he was 70 years old. He just enjoy his life and he was very grateful to God. I was the first customer of the day two hours after he had entered his own café. There are many many pictures of thousands of visitors at the café was quiet And quaint this morning just what I needed. And thank you for a wonderful blessed breakfast. I hope your café continues to thrive and people come check it out. The food is worth the visit.

    I have passed this cafe multiple times but timing never worked out for me. One day, my husband saw Kenny's Cafe on the way home and Kenny's sign was so bold and eyecatching my husband quickly looked back, pointed and said "OMG that place has to be good! We have to go!" At last, we made a plan to go the following morning. Kenny was so warm, friendly and welcoming as soon as we walked in. He truly is SO genuinely happy and appreciative to all his customers and you RARELY feel that kind of positivity these days! He is so quirky and funny, your spirits instantly light up being around him. Shoot, I wanna be that bubbly and happy too! The cafe is so eccentrically decorated with pictures of his customers and his experiences. My husband could not get enough walking around and admiring all the pictures while waiting for our food. Kenny's Cafe is a one man show so yes it will be a bit of a wait if you are a big group, but know you are getting DAMN GOOD food that is made with love! Believe me, it is worth the wait! You can really tell he loves what he does and wants his customers to love his food as well. No joke! These were the best breakfast burritos we have EVER had! We ESPECIALLY loved the Korean inspired breakfast burrito with sausage, bulgogi, kimchi, grilled onions and jalapenos. We also could not believe how AMAZING the sauce it came with on the side. My husband could not stop raving about that sauce on the way back home! We cannot wait to try his other menu items. We were already eyeing his burgers and Philly cheesesteak lol! This is officially our weekend go to spot for breakfast and lunch! Positive vibes and amazing food?!! Five stars all the way!!!

    As we were heading home, we wanted to grab a quick breakfast before going to the airport and came across Kenny's on Yelp. It's a total hole-in-the-wall spot but conveniently close to the airport. When we walked in, there were three guys waiting for their meals and one person ahead of us. A moment later, someone popped up from the back--and we assumed it was Kenny! His vibrant personality and energetic presence made it pretty clear. He was the only one working in the back, exuding positivity and enthusiasm. He greeted us warmly, handed the guys their meals, and after they paid, he even took a selfie with them. He then took our order and was still super charismatic and had so much energy. He was excited for our order and then went to the back to make it. Looks like a one man operation. The burrito was good. Wish there was more eggs and less potatoes in it but I know there's an egg crisis going on right now. I do love that Kenny took our picture, though I wish he was in it and posted it to his Instagram. He did ask our permission first and I was all down for it! And wow, the excitement he had when we tipped. He treats all customers equally special. If you're ever at the San Jose airport or nearby, visit Kenny's Cafe!

    The breakfast burritos are hearty and flavorful, and I appreciate that they are not greasy. The bacon and sausage are solid, the steak was not as strong, and the kimchi salsa adds a bright, spicy kick. The place has character, thanks to a friendly owner. There is a story behind this café, and you can feel it when you're there. Five stars to support a local spot that keeps it real.

    The #1 Best Breakfast Burrito! Excellent!

    Ask the Community - Kenny's Cafe

    Do they have vegetarian options?

    Kenny does have a Vegetarian Breakfast Burrito item on his menu. I've not ordered it so I don't know what it contains. But he is pretty flexible in the kitchen so can customize to a great extent. He is extremely customer satisfaction oriented.

    Do they accept Apple Pay?

    They should. They use a Square for card transactions.

    Can we get the hours updated to show the correct reflection of when this place is actually open?…

    Hours have been updated.

    R they open on Sunday?

    No. Sorry they are not.

    Open for take out?

    Yep

    Is this place still open during COVID-19?

    Yes

    Do they have anything not spicy for sensitive people? Answer: No. Kenny told me he couldn't cook for…

    Yes. I ordered a breakfast burrito and there is no spicy sauce in it. Also the chicken teriyaki is not spicy. You can probably just ask for them not to place the jalapeño slices in the bowl for you.

    When do they stop serving breakfast burrito?

    They close at 2pm. They make the burritos all the time.

    Do they take phone orders?

    Yes they sure do!

    How do you know when he has the bulgogi burritos? I came on a Friday morning and he didnt have it.

    I think it might be something they only offer when they have the ingredients. The spam & pineapple burrito wasn't on the menu when I visited but when I asked about it the employee said that she could make it for me.

After deciding there wasn't anything I wanted more than the Fried Chicken and Spiced Croffle (croissant dough baked in a waffle iron) and was happy to wait, they were nice enough to check in with the kitchen and see if it could be made sooner than that. I didn't expect to be accommodated, so I was happy they were able to do that. You get two chicken thighs and croffles per order. It's enough for two light eaters to share.

The building is very close to the San Jose airport and the Matrix Casino. Plenty of parking. They post their daily specials on their website every week: https://sanjosegatewaycafe.wixsite.com/gatewaycafe/daily-specials. There are some specials they have every week like sesame chicken katsu on Tuesdays and burgers on Wednesdays. Monday is always pasta. However you can also always order sandwiches off their menu! They also have salads, spring rolls, soft drinks, cookies, and more! My favorite is the veggie sandwich or the sesame chicken which comes with teriyaki sauce and a sesame slaw. Gateway Cafe is a mom and pop shop run by the same couple for the past 20+ years. I highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area and supporting a small business!

    Had to check this hidden gem out! I went with my coworker on my lunch break. It's tucked in the…read morecourtyard of a corporate building, but you can easily go through the front lobby to find it. The place is cozy and family owned! I love how they rotate their daily specials. The service was quick and friendly, despite a decent lunch rush. My coworker and I both got the Thai Chicken Wrap. The chicken was crisp and juicy. The sauce was really good and flavorful but I think the wrapping fell apart a little, so the sauce kept dripping out the bottom. But the overall flavor was bomb! I definitely will come back to check out their other offerings.

    5/5 for sure. You can order online in advance. Everything I've tried is fresh and very good here…read more Positive daily vibes and comfortable dine-in environment. Love my server who's always attentive. They do get busy when employees are eating here or companies are ordering takeouts on most weekdays. When I walk in after 10:30am, I'm always looking forward to their soups here. Fresh made and kept at good temperature. On a rainy day Monday, I was the only customer inside. I had the hot cup of fresh cabbage beef stew which came with the sourdough breads/so soft and tender. It really melts in my mouth with the hot cup of delicious daily soup. I love it. The croissant was also fresh baked/soft/flaky/light weight/moist/tender. That's a bonus because not every place makes it this good. The croissant was very good and easy to swallow. I had a hot cup of hot chocolate to go with it. I am happy here. It's like another home away from home and easily accessible to places and companies nearby. I'll keep returning for great cafe foods. Must love! It's a great stop for me prior to attending weekly yoga sculpt classes not far from here. Loved the quiet rainy day Monday. It was still very vibrant and brightly lit with huge natural windows inside. Nice.

    Nice place to stop for a weekday lunch. Not crowded at all at 1pm, lots of parking, 5star service…read more BLT, chef salad were solid choices- Blt in a nicely toasted roll comes with potato salad and a pickle. Chef salad with fresh, dressed romaine, tomatoes, egg, bacon, croutons, cheese- a very good salad. And they are first and foremost a bakery so- apple strudel, apricot bar, raspberry bar and morning bun. The pastries are huge, bars are the standouts.
