Small business is tough. When it comes to writing reviews, my rule is that if I have nothing nice to say, I just don't post. Peggy Sue's, however, delivered a truly exceptional experience. Peggy Sue's has been on my radar as a probably decent family diner. I figured it was time to schlep up to Tasman. The menu looks good: sandwiches, entrees, kids meals, milk shakes and ice cream. The first red flag is that they post AI pictures of food on Google. I have seen 20 years of folks posting attractive food pictures with their smart phones, but it has been suggested to me that taking good pictures of food is an art that may be beyond the budget of a local small business. An open mind? When we got there we saw not a family diner, but a sports bar with musty decor of the previous era hanging from the few walls that lacked TVs. Friday night and the place is nearly empty. No wait staff. Order at the counter. Lonely eyes peered expectantly out from the kitchen. My son asked for a steak medium-rare, and cash register guy explained that medium is the rarest they can serve. There was plenty of empty seating. We found a clean table on the third try. An entire section of the dining area is partitioned off with a large movie screen to conceal a bunch of random stuff unworthy of a storage locker. I read the decaying framed Chicago Tribune on the wall that documented the Kennedy assassination. The food came out. Mom's lasagna emanated a Sadness usually reserved for a mediocre hospital cafeteria. My chicken sandwich was served on a saucer just its size, to keep it from dreaming of a side. Son's medium steak was served grey. Having met Peggy Sue's actual food, it makes sense that they post AI pictures. The place has ice cream. Let's try dessert! The ice cream flavors are an undocumented subset of the milk shake flavors, but we managed to negotiate an order. Mom's ice cream had the chewy texture of freezer burn. I had a slice of apple pie that was so humble it would never dream of occupying a clamshell at the grocery store bakery. I was feeling gassy when we got home. We started on our evening walk, but I had to cut it short and start hustling back to the house. I am a guy with an iron stomach who can hustle very fast, but after a meal at Peggy Sue's, I could not hustle fast enough. We had to do a special load of laundry. Son had diarrhea, too. We spent Saturday quietly recuperating from Friday's dinner. I assume that Peggy Sue's was once a probably decent family diner, but at some point, the family moved on and sold the place to someone who hates food. Wrinkling yellowed memories of a more innocent time when Americans loved President Kennedy remain tacked to the wall, and there is no going back. read more

Eh this place is just ok. I remember going to the original an beloved location in downtown San Jose back in the day. Of course, a place like this, was awesome back then and was thriving but in today's society here in the Silicon Valley, it's just not as fitting especially here in this area. I've come a few times already and both time within the month has been dead. I ordered their chili dog and it was way too sloppy and salty. The bun is sliced flat while the hotdog was sliced and spread apart. The chili was dumped on top and was so difficult to eat. I'm not sure why they didn't just keep it as a regular hot dog for a regular hold. The fries tasted frozen and with that raw texture. It wasn't salted either or fried all the way. Not good. I won't be back. read more

Peggy Sue’s - Chili Dog (looks like roadkill) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

This place is cute, tucked into the shopping area by Grocery Outlet ( Bargain Market) First impression: Cute place Second impression: Music was way too loud -- More bar than restaurant vibe. Third: Food was subpar. Lasagna with garlic bread was unappetizing from the start. It was very dark, spicy like heat-cayenne which Is known to be used to avoid actual flavor. It was a crime to call it garlic bread also, two small triangles of only the lightest & lightly toasted white bread on unmelted margarine with dry parsley flakes. Friend had Cobb salad which was a healthy proportion but no dressing. Waiter pointed out a large bottle of ranch was in the ( back side ) of the condiment basket. It was gross, watery and clearly must have sat out all day if not longer. At one point there were only four customers and no wait or counter staff to be found for 15 mins. If this was a typical day, skip it. I do not take joy in seeing businesses not do well but as a customer, I will not recommend. read more

Nice and friendly waitress despite the lack of staff present. I came super early and it was the only place in the area open at 8AM for breakfast. So just came for convenience. It's crazy, most places in the area didn't open until 10 or 11AM or they were closed. I asked for a veggie omelette. And it was very early and I was literally the only customer inside so I think the waitress was tired or not truly paying attn since there were two veggie options on the menu. The waitress got my order wrong and ended up giving me a bfst burrito vs a veggie omelette, but it was only one cook and a holiday so I didn't return it. The veggies in the breakfast burrito were really good- I initially got a veggie omelette without zucchini and squash, but sadly that's not what showed. I said screw it it's 830am now I'll be nice considering I'm thinking everyone called in or maybe they're not used to people coming early for bfst. For the burrito, I would say they need one more egg and maybe beans would make it perfect and a better salsa. They kind of burned and overcooked the hashbrowns inside and she forgot to give me my toast. The breakfast menu is kind of simple, so I wouldn't return for breakfast but anyone else that wants a simple bfst no frills that's open early this is your place. read more

Me and my husband went here for the first time since it was close to our house and we ordered our food to go. My husband got the boss's special ribeye steak and he asked for it to be cooked medium and received it rare, it was raw raw like lady Gaga . He ordered onion rings and they were burnt. I asked for lasagna and garlic bread and they huddled in the corner and came back and told me they don't have it, so I got the fish and chips instead. 2 pieces of fish with the rest all cold hard fries. I will never be eating at this place again or ordering from there. Because of our food not being to our liking and raw we went to bed hungry. So much for trying a new place! read more

Nice spot close to offices. The staff is super nice and friendly. Highly recommend going here.

I was looking for a place to catch a bit of my Raiders game along with NFL RedZone for my fantasy management week1. Plus, I had a bloody Mary with some finger food. Overall, solid experience and would recommend. Minus one star because a fly was buzzing by my head from time to time. read more

I've tried coming here multiple times and every time the food is just trash. It's obvious they have no real chef / cooking experience and so their only decent dishes are microwaved frozen stuff from Sysco. The French dip sandwich doesn't even meet the definition of its name. Wrong bread, wrong way of slicing the beef. Prices high. Good bad. Service slow despite empty restaurant. read more

Went in on a Saturday afternoon, lots of parking because it's located in a shopping plaza, not busy at all, so we were able to place our order right away, seems like it's a family owned business, not that it matters. Did not get a Hi nice Customer Greeting, Welcome ‍ you place your order at the counter before you sit down, find a table than wait for them to bring your food out to you. Cute & picture friendly inside, it has an old school fun vibe going on & that's just the decor they have inside. Food is not too pricy but the taste I'm not too fond about. Maybe they have other items on the menu, that has more flavor, so why not stop in & try it out, if your curious read more

Peggy Sue’s - Inside - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Came here once for dinner because it's close to my house. My husband and I were pretty much the only 2 people in the restaurant besides a couple people at the bar. We were definitely the only 2 people ordering food. First thing I noticed were the prices. For what they were charging, I was expecting decent quality. Ordered the chicken sandwich with mushrooms and curly fries. Chicken is obviously frozen because it is so tough and almost mealy, not to mention my whole meal was cold. To top it off, whatever I ate made me SO SICK for probably 2 weeks. My stomach was not the same. I don't know if it was bad frying oil or bad chicken, but buyer beware. I will NEVER go here again. One positive is they reluctantly let us park our bikes inside the restaurant because there were suspicious individuals outside at the light rail station who were eyeballing us as soon as we rode up. So that was nice. read more

Absolutely horrible! Would not recommend to anybody. The owner is unruly and irrational. Totally incapable of even having a discussion or taking just a second to see what was really going on. He immediately kicked me and my group out and attempted to steal my bag in the process. Black list this restaurant! Go to the Peggy Sue's downtown. Way better company to support and person in charge. read more

I've seen this Peggy Sue's a number of times and finally decided to come in on a Saturday evening with some friends for dinner. The space was larger than I thought it was. It had plenty of seats and TVs up around the bar. You order at the front and the food is brought to your table. Otherwise, it has classic diner feel. Food: First off, as any good diner should do, they serve breakfast all day. Half my friends got breakfast and were thrilled. I ordered a veggie burger with fries. The burger was good, nothing to write home about. The fries were crispy and seasoned well. Service: Service was friendly. The kitchen was sporadic on when our food came out. Some items came later than others. It wasn't terrible, but it was noticeable. TL;DR - classic diner feel with decent food and service read more

Saturday evening at 5:20pm I walked by Peggy Sue's outdoor patio on the sidewalk. There were two darkly clothed gentlemen smoking marijuana on the patio, hacking and coughing loudly. The stench was awful and they were in a cloud of smoke. Since I knew they would go back inside I decided to call whoever was working at Peggy Sues. The man who answered could not understand English. I explained it three times using simple language. He was lost. Peggy Sues is not the kind of place I would choose to be on a Saturday night. read more

I really wanted to like this place because I can walk to it. I went on a Saturday morning for breakfast and it was only me there. I ordered a very simple eggs and toast breakfast and it took 25 minutes for it to arrive to me. The oil that the hashbrowns were cooked in was obviously rancid and it smelled and it made me vomit as I walked home As I left, I told the manager/server that The oil was rancid, but he refused to smell it and told me that the oil was not rancid it's fine. I will never never ever return to this place, this neighborhood deserves a better restaurant than this. Also this place is decorated like a bar from a Miami Vice episode; full of blue neon and liquor bottles Everywhere. Very strange and bizarre decor, very subpar food and staff that probably means well, but is indifferent to the quality of food for the prices that they're charging I hope something else opens up that serves the neighborhood better than this place. read more

I love Peggy sues burger literally old style. Love there drink happy hour 3-7pm two shot for $10

Service & Satisfaction- a feel good experience overall. We have been going to Peggy Sue's in San Jose and now Sunnyvale for the last 20 years .. from the two locations moves in San Jose to ownership change and new Sunnyvale location; we have been faithful. Even through the changes the atmosphere, quality and service has stayed the same over the years - which we appreciate and love! On our latest late night visit, my daughter and I were taken care of by the present owner and why I wanted to write a review. We had such an amazing night of happy banter, lightning speed service, and one of the best burgers I have had in a very long time. A few new changes, the Sunnyvale location has a full bar and a bunch of tv screens - ready for a perfect game night with friends. So even if the 50s nostalgia isn't your thing, come for a drink on game night with friends and family- you won't be sorry! read more

Fresh cheese burger in my opinion...but French fries are not included. Extra $4-7(?) more for it. They have curly fries...yummy and crispy. I got small size onions rings...also yummy plus a root beer float. We were the only couple there plus one other person at the bar. They have plenty of tvs to watch the games. I guess, when u pay with a credit card, there's nothing to sign so tipping is cash only. We ended up putting it in the tip jar at the cash register, although we didn't get refills on our drinks. by the way, the person serving us has this very strong b o. Maybe it's religion thing(?) I dunno but I have to turn my head away whenever he stopped by the table. Although he seems nice. They did turn down the surround sound to the tv....kinda signaling that they were closing(?) it was only 6pm on a Sunday. This place used to be The Boardwalk like the one in Mountain View years ago on el Camino Real. But the one in Mountain View was a lot bigger and more lively back in the days. read more

First off, I am enjoying that one of the staff has a ringtone from the original Legend of Zelda, when Link opens up a new door with a key. The atmosphere is that of a biker bar mixed with 50s diner. There are tvs all over the restaurant, so not sure if this is a sports bar-type place at night, but as I just dropped my cousin off at Google to work, I need some good breakfast to get me back to Sacramento. As this was two minutes away, here I am. First off, I ordered a diet coke. I was later sadly informed that they have no carbonation, but they let me choose a new beverage of juice or hot chocolate (which is typically more expensive), and didn't upcharge me. A good size cup of OJ, so no harm, no foul. I appreciate it. Then, the food arrived. Look at the picture: Typically, a cheese omelette should have the cheese INSIDE the omelette. This was a dry, flat omelette with two slices of cheese on top. Kind of....pathetic. Harsh, I know, but I rarely get to go out for breakfast, and was looking forward to a treat. The potatoes were undercooked, and the English muffin tasted like it had barely been toasted at all. $20 for this?? And I don't even have a diet coke to wash it down??? As I am now headed back two and a half hours to Sacramento, I sadly will need to buy snacks, as this is leaving me quite hungry read more

Peggy Sue’s - $20 for this?!?!?!? - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

I ordered salmon with mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables. The salmon was overcooked and dry. My mashed potatoes arrived stone cold. I did eventually get hot ones, so hot that I had to mix them with the cold ones to get an edible temperature. The meal was served on a rectangular plate that it was too easy to slide wny food off of. There were very few people in the restaurant, and our server hovered uncomfortably close. Overall, a much less pleasant experience (2/10) than I've had at Peggy Sue's before (7/10). Sick staffers? Change of management? Not sure whether to stick with this restaurant. read more

First time to this location. Came for a late lunch and hardly anyone here. One person working bar & taking food orders. After talking to him, it's only his 2nd week here!

I ordered a "Love in Tokyo" burger which is basically a Teriyaki burger and a side salad to go. The burger was missing teriyaki sauce! Teriyaki burger without teriyaki sauce... what a disappointment. The burger itself was so dry too. The side salad was missing salad dressing as well. Not the best burger spot unfortunately. read more

We ordered chicken fingers and fries, chicken wings bare-not in Buffalo sauce with fries, clam chowder, sweet potato fries, burger wrap. This was not what I expect. The chicken wings was dry and tasted old. It was so chewy like it was nuked and served. The fries was ok, at least it was hot. Sweet potato was good enough. The clam chowder tasted like it was from a can and not a good one. Last time we come here. read more

Did not have a good experience. Go at your own risk. Food wasn't the best. Management try to up charge.

My family and I enjoyed our break fast yesterday morning! We like the 50s 60s new look of the restaurant and the new menu. My husband and i try the steaks and eggs, the country potatoes were really good but the steak wasn't cook to desire temperature, we ordered medium rare ribeye steaks and came well done, My kids ordered wings and they like it , my little one ordered kids cheeseburger and also like it. The guy that took our order was nice too and was very attentive. It is a great idea to have a dinner restaurant in Sunnyvale, I support 100% this local restaurant. read more

2.5 burgers are borderline flavorless and dry. Texture is a bit compressed. Fries are surprisingly good ,about a 3.5 Shrinkflation rears its ugly head in that fish and chips no longer includes chips. Nice surroundings for a sports bar. read more

The server was lack luster in his approach. The food took forever to arrive and nothing tasted great. We should have taken the hint when we walked in at 0900 on a Sunday and were the only people inside. I would not recommend this place. read more

A very strange and creepy experience. My wife and I went here on a quiet Sunday around noon, and we were the only ones in the restaurant. I ordered a burger and my wife a sandwich. A few minutes after we ordered, a man with a professional camera came in and sat in the back corner. Shortly after they brought the cameraman a sandwich. He rearranged it, touching the food without gloves, while taking pictures of it. Then a minute later, the same thing but with a burger. In the process of taking a shot of the burger, he rotated the toothpick and created a bigger hole. I asked the owner if this was our food and he assured us it was not. Then the server brought out our food, and sure enough the hole was widened in the burger. I told the owner this was the same burger the cameraman had touched, and he doubled down to say it was different. We asked then for them to bring out the food that the cameraman had, and they weren't able to. We left immediately after being creeped out. read more

I'm just tired of Peggy Sue. Their service there is getting harder and harder to deal with. I usually avoid getting bad reviews, I just don't go to the place anymore, but in this case, I'm just tired of it. The original owners in San Jose were great, and even when they moved to Sunnyvale, they were still really good, but now it has just gone so far downhill. Those customers are always wrong. They're one of two restaurants in the immediate area, which is why I went to them, but no more. read more

Wow, this place is terrible to modern day standards. The worst cheese fries I've ever had at a restaurant- I would think they would want to copy how in and out fries have cheese melted on top, but they completely neglect that opportunity. The burger quality is alright, but it's very flat and thin. Beer on tap was a flat as well. The decorations inside the restaurant are really cool, but the food quality is just like oh my god are you kidding me...this is terrible. When we paid our bill I told my wife- "this is the last time we come here ." it was clear that the feeling was mutual, we got up and left. read more

Slightly bummed they didn't have iced coffees but they definitely intrigued me with their 32 oz beer (it's my day off and I like trying new places). The service is great and it honestly feels like a hidden gem. I did come @10:30 so it's definitely early but it was one of the few open places nearby. I was one of the few people here and it was very enjoyable. Inside it's clean and spacious. Solid place, I'll definitely be back with friends, possibly in the afternoon. read more

Peggy Sue’s - 32 oz beer and breakfast Chorizo burrito - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

We were in the plaza picking up some other food and noticed that there was a Peggy Sue's! I remembered it was previously a burger place called Boardwalk, but during the pandemic's lockdown, they were never opened. I was so excited to see Peggy Sue's because I haven't seen a Peggy Sue's since I was little. We used to go to the location in Downtown San Jose, but it's been a long time since they were there. It brought back a lot of great memories from when I was a child, so I was so excited to visit! The location is in a small plaza under some apartment buildings. There are some other businesses that are in the plaza and the plaza isn't very big, but luckily since it doesn't get very busy, there's plenty of parking! Walking into the restaurant, the first thing I noticed was the Peggy Sue statue standing in the front. There were no customers actually eating when we were there. There was just a group of older men that were drinking beer. The interior decor was definitely not giving the same vibe as the original Peggy Sue's. I guess it was a more modernized version but there were definitely a lot of random things hanging on the wall that weren't as related to the original 50s decor. There were even a few menu items that were printed out and just taped at the register. The service was okay. We ordered our food to-go, so it was quick service. I believe that the girl who helped us at the register was new because she was trying to figure out how to add items into the computer. The guy that gave us our food was nice, he gave us condiments in our bag without asking. To be completely honest, I was disappointed with our food. I guess I expected more since I knew what Peggy Sue's was supposed to be like. And another thing is that there are barely any diners that are around anymore, so I was hoping that coming back here would bring back a sense of nostalgia, but unfortunately, it didn't. I'm sure I can't be the only one who misses American diners (Peggy Sue's, Johnny Rockets, Denny's, etc.). I hope that Peggy Sue's really goes into improving their quality because we definitely need more types of burgers around here. We probably won't be regulars here, but we might come back if we weren't craving fast food burgers. read more

I ordered a Denver omelette and country potatoes. Not sure what exactly they season it with but it was so awful I couldn't even eat it. My boyfriend ordered chicken fried steak and eggs.
