Great place for cheesesteaks! Different from the other cheesesteak shops around San Jose in that…read morethe hoagie roll was soft! Most cheesesteak shops have a thick and chewy hoagie that sometimes gets to be bit too chewy and becomes a problem trying to take a clean bite - more often than not, it ends up with the meat falling out of the hoagie, and/or juice oozing out onto your lap. Not so here at New Jersey's! This is the first time I ate a cheesesteak with no mess, no meat falling out, no juice on my pants! They solve the problem by using a soft hoagie roll. Yet there is not the sogginess that one automatically expects, as there is little juice to be soaked up. If you think that this makes for a dry cheesesteak, it does not. The meat is tender, not dry at all, the onions and mushrooms are not limp, but the flavor is all there! Some people may prefer the thicker bun to give it a definite bite, but I do like this more refined eating experience!

I personally have not been to this location, but had tried them when they were just Jerseys off of Winchester blvd. A friend recommended them because he said he had the best onion rings and they make their own ranch dressing. I got the standard cheesesteak with onions and cheese. Sadly I did not really get the cheese with my cheesesteak, there was one hidden slice inside my sandwich. Definitely not what I am used to if I have a cheesesteak anywhere else. The flavor was good, I just missed the cheese :( I know people love this place, but I will probably just go back to my regular spot on Saratoga.

We also ordered 3 soft drinks too. The restaurant was busy, but another party left, so we were able to grab their table to enjoy lunch inside.

Our son finished his Cheesesteak and we polished-off the Fries and Onion Rings. My wife and I didn't finish our Cheesesteaks, so we took home the leftover Cheesesteaks to enjoy another day.

The staff does a great job of making sure you're taken care of, even on a busy work day. Even if a mistake was made on your order, the staff is quick to correct it and fire up another fresh item to bring to the table. I seriously cannot recommend this place enough!

I was craving a burger this day, and after two friends recommended this place, I finally decided to…read moregive it a try. It was my first time, and I wanted EVERYTHING on my burger . I got the classic cheeseburger and added pineapple, mushrooms, grilled onions, bacon... pretty much everything I was craving. I love when a burger place lets you customize your burger and add as many toppings as you want, so of course, I went all in! The burger was really good, and everything tasted fresh off the grill. I also loved that they have an area with different sauces and condiments. I tried this yellow mustard-style sauce that was SO good. I had ordered their traditional sauce on the side because I didn't know what it tasted like, but after trying it, I honestly wouldn't have minded having it right inside the burger. And the fries! Super crispy and so good. Overall, such a good burger and exactly what I was craving that day. Now I understand why my friends recommended this place. The only problem is that I might need to stay away for a little while because next time I'll probably go all in with the toppings again .

The servers consistently cleared used tableware, replaced drinks and food as needed, and responded to all of our requests with such kindness! The food was delicious, especially the mac and cheese and miso salmon, which our guests raved about. We are so happy that we had our son's birthday party at Water Tower Kitchen.

Kenny and the staff are extremely kind and caring, and even when the place fills up they deliver excellent service. However, I thought the food we ordered was just ok. Ordered the #1 (Breakfast burrito), #5 (breakfast sandwich). Both items' composition was not the best. They were wrapped with the wrapping paper that didn't securely hold the entire sandwich/burrito securely. Especially for the sandwich, the cheese and meat were easily spilling out from the sides. The burrito was standard, but I felt the same way more or less regarding its structure. Additionally, the flavor was ok and good at best. The meal came with red salsas, which look to be house made since it was clear there is pickled onions and some other little things in it. Honestly it is an ok salsa, I'm not sure if this particular flavor is what I'm looking for to complement a breakfast burrito normally. We had an OK experience. The restaurant seems like a fairly small shop (run by family)! While I'm all for supporting local and mom/pop shops, I probably would not wait over 15 minutes for it. Maybe will have to try the bulgogi items next time! But for breakfast burrito/sandwich it was just ok to me.

I usually get there about 11am. Big E is much closer to my house than their sister cafe, BAE, which is why I keep trying to come here instead. But if the sausage and egg empanadas are selling out this consistently, they're clearly one of the more popular items. You would think they'd adjust and stock more of them rather than repeatedly running out. I usually end up driving to BAE anyway, where they actually have them in stock and, in my experience, the presentation is better too. I'd much rather support the location closest to me, but it's frustrating to keep making the trip only to find the same popular item sold out again. Hopefully they start stocking according to demand.
