Crispy Calamari
Eric B.

Service was great. The staff apologized for all the mess-ups. Came with a party of 15 and when the appetizers came out I had to tell the staff we were missing a spinach-artichoke dip. Calamari was mid and we ordered 3. For sure these were frozen. I had the chef's choice Mushroom burger. It had too many mushrooms. The special of the day was the prime rib dinner. Our table had 5 orders and 4 of the orders got sent back because the prime rib was too cold. It's too noisy but I like how they had TVs at the bar to watch NFL. I'm sure I'll be back but not by choice.

Spaghetti
Lauren G.

I ordered spaghetti (no meatballs) which came with a fresh and green basil leaf on top. There was a little bit of pesto sauce on the bottom of the plate. The spaghetti also has yummy cherry tomatoes too. I ate my entire plate of spaghetti! Yummy! The service was reasonable and my friends enjoyed their meals too. They ordered a burger and poke. Ambience was comfortable. We sat outside and it was easy to talk to my friends. This was my first time eating at Pinstripes and I spent about minutes trying to find the restaurant at the mall. I asked one of the nearby stores to tell me where the restaurant was. Perhaps Pinstripes needs a bigger sign so people can easily find the restaurant.

Sunday Buffet
Jack R.

September 2026 Sunday Fun day and Buffet Day! Went with some friends who invited me to join them for a Buffet to catch up on old times. We did two per table since their big tables were taken up with parties of 8 or more, and since we didn't want to wait we split our party of 4 into two smaller tables. I didn't know they had a Buffet here, so this was news to me. Our server was amazing, we gave him a 30% tip. Super on it, was running around getting his steps for sure. I thought the food was fresh, and good. Don't expect amazing food, just decent food. Highlights: the roasted chicken and the make your own omelet was great, the very fun chocolate fondue tower, and great brussel sprouts. Not so great: the salmon lox was very fishy, couldn't finish it. Lettuce was limp, and the prime rib was dry and the ham was even drier. Pizza was meh, and the mimosas I heard had really cheap champagne and tasted awful. I mean it's a Buffet so don't expect too much LOL, but the service was amazing and the place was clean and we did have a good time so 4 stars.

Weekend buffet $38
Eva O.

Looking for a weekend ALL YOU CAN EAT brunch? Pinstripes has one for only $38! There's seriously so much to choose from -- easily 20-30 different items, including a carving station, chicken & waffles, breakfast pizza, breakfast pasta, a dessert section, and even a build-your-own omelette station! My favorite was hands down the cioppino, It was SO good that I had to go back for seconds. The carving station was another favorite! For $38 and the amount of food and variety you get, I definitely think it's worth it and would come back again. Service was also quick and friendly! We didn't have a reservation and were still seated right away, which was a nice surprise. Definitely a fun weekend brunch spot when you want a little bit of everything!

Nice spot near the mall with a bowling alley upstairs! We came here for lunch, and they offer a great lunch combo that includes a lunch-sized salad, flatbread or sandwich, plus a soup or side and a non-alcoholic beverage for $22. Definitely a good deal, and the service was friendly as well. The food did take a little while to come out, but overall I had a great experience. Lobster Flatbread - The crust was thin, crispy, and delicious. It was also perfectly cheesy!

Brunch buffet menu

Food was plentiful and good, especially the prime rib and Brussel sprouts. The espresso martini was yummy. Service was fast and clean and spacious spot and great place for a big group. Dessert station was awesome with the chocolate fondue and donut holes were so fun.

My husband surprised me with a reservation at this location. My whole family drove out from San Jose for brunch and bowling/bocce. He made this reservation the week before and made sure to make it before 3pm so we could do their brunch menu. He confirmed the activities were open during brunch as well. The day of we were running about 10 minutes late from San Jose so I called to confirm it was okay to which the hostess said they had actually stopped brunch early since it was slow. I had called at 2:10pm and brunch was supposed to be done at 3pm. We were still going and decided it wasn't that big of a deal. Once there they told us our table still had the party before us eating so they'd have to make a table somewhere else. So not only did you give a big table away to someone else knowing our reservation was there but you also stopped brunch early without contacting us to tell us our brunch reservation was changing. Ok no big deal... Then the service. The waitress was okay. She didn't smile, didn't know the flavors of drinks, didn't know the specials. We had to ask the gentleman cleaning tables to have her come back so we can get dessert. On top of this, they told us we needed to be done eating and out by 5:15pm but we can't do this if our waitress keeps disappearing and doesn't ever bring our check. When they did come back our card was not in the check folder. When we asked them where it was they said they had to look for it. Suspicious if you ask me. My MIL works at a very fancy Santa Clara restaurant for over 30 years. She has never been so unimpressed that she wanted to speak to the manager. When she did he also seemed like he didn't care, didn't offer any other help and said they were all busy upstairs for a party. Not an excuse. Then tell my husband they don't have reservations for us if you don't workers or space to properly serve us. Will not be back again. 3 stars because the food was good. That's it.

We hosted a private event at Pinstripes and were blown away from start to finish. It was my first time playing bocce ball, and it ended up being an absolute hit with everyone...easy to learn, super fun, and a great activity for groups. Rules posted on the wall. They were also incredibly accommodating, even handling same-day additions to our food order list without any added hassle. Our semi-private space was spacious, comfortable, and perfectly situated within their beautiful two-story venue. The whole place was decorated for the holidays, and the added bonus of a live DJ made the atmosphere even more energetic and festive. Huge shoutout to Gabe and his team!!! Truly a pleasure, they were stellar all night, attentive, friendly, and always a step ahead. And Alyson, our event coordinator, deserves special recognition. She's truly top-notch: organized, responsive, and an absolute pro at making everything run smoothly. I do wish there was just a few more items to select from on appetizers and for variety for our vegetarians. Particularly around the holidays but still all around great experience and people. If you're looking for a fun, polished venue with great service for any group event, Pinstripes is a winner. Highly recommended!

Abel A.

Nice restaurant with banquet rooms, a lounge/bar, and a fun bowling alley of course. Pretty chic ams trendy. Very clean. Food wasn't spectacular but good for a bowling alley. Service was solid overall. p.s. looks like they had a Sunday brunch going on downstairs in the main restaurant. May come back to try it.

Made reservations online. Found the closest mall parking garage to the restaurant. Came for first brunch seating on a Sunday. It was nice and quiet initially. They had customizable omelet station , waffle station , carving station with prime rib , salmon lox , shrimp cocktail , pizza , eggs, sausage , chicken apple sausage , salad , fries and chicken tenders , ciopinno, pasta, cheesecake , rice krispy , chocolate fondue station. It was a big area, very family friendly. Lot of kids around. My toddlers meal was free. Adults $38 per person. I also saw they even have private parties upstairs which is neat. It's located in the Hillsdale mall so there are alot of restaurants and you can walk in the mall after the heavy meal.

This review is for the weekend brunch buffet. I love me a buffet! We went in Sept for my bday. There was a carving station, a lox and bagel station, healthy options, and omelette station, chicken and waffle station, chocolate fountain, and pizza. So many options! See my video! The chilaquiles station made a massive plate. If you're like me and want to try everything ask them for a 1/4 size serving. Everything was fresh and delicious since we went right when they opened. Best part my 10 year was free on Sunday! The location is right by where they have the huge Christmas during the holidays and the kids love to run around the fake grass outside and play on the rocks. Be aware there is a street with cars nearby, the grass area is NOT fence in if you have little ones that run off. There is outdoor seating if you want to sit outside and watch the kids play.

Daniel M.

Came here for a birthday party and the brunch buffet a few weeks ago and I gotta say, I enjoyed myself. The food was really good and I've always wanted to try prime rib, even more so when it's all you can eat. I was here during the holiday season so this place was decked out in the festive decor and Santa taking pictures with customers which was cool. I would absolutely come back here again on my own or with family just to eat. If I wanted to complain about something, I didn't think the desserts were that great. But y'know, it's whatever. I'm not a huge dessert guy anyway. There was a chocolate fountain though and I always think those are cool. But stick with the savory stuff for the most part. Side note, there used to be a Pinstripes in Walnut Creek that closed a few months ago. It didn't even last a year and I was disappointed that I never got to go. This was my first Pinstripes experience and I do hope they can make a comeback in Walnut Creek or elsewhere in the East Bay. I'm not keen on traveling all the way to Hillsdale Mall, even for this.

I worked with Raymond and you can tell he really knows his stuff. I've been to other pro shops that do the minimum, but Raymond takes the time to ask you questions about your game, how you throw, any physical limitations or other factors that will help him determine how to drill your ball. After a few days when my stuff was ready, I had the chance to throw the ball and they felt really good. Comfortable in my hand and just the perfect fit. I'm 36 and the last time I bowled league I was 16. I've been bowling in leagues for the past 7 months and my current league average is a 195. I didn't think I'd get to a 195 after 20 years away from the game. So I give a lot of credit to Raymond for his knowledge and getting me set up correctly. Current high game since getting back into bowling is 261. They also have a little bit of everything, shoes, shamy pads, bags, apparel, thumb tape, etc. just a heads up, don't expect a pristine pro shop, the spot is small, there are bowling balls and equipment everywhere. But to me that's the sign of great pro shop. 10/10 would recommend coming here.

Late review from March 2026!…read more We hosted our U8 youth rugby team's team-bonding night here on a Friday and had a great experience! We reserved four lanes for 24 kids, and several families booked their own lanes as well. The staff was awesome about keeping all of our lanes together or nearby, which made it much easier for our group. Matt, our event coordinator, was super helpful from the beginning. He assisted me through email with our catering order and recommended the $100 table setup since we weren't purchasing a party package. It included a food table plus tables and chairs with tablecloths. Having everyone sit together to eat instead of trying to eat down at the lanes made things so much easier. Food came out on time as requested. Pitchers were placed on table with cups for the kids before our time started. There was always someone nearby to answer any questions we had. Outside food wasn't allowed, but we were able to bring desserts, so we brought cupcakes, a cake and we also did a sundae bar for the team. We made green bowling balls filled with goodies for our kids to enjoy @ home. Overall, it was an amazing team-bonding night! The kids had a blast &&& the parents and siblings were able to enjoy themselves too. Everything was organized, accommodating &&& perfect for our large group. We would definitely host another team event here again!

We went to the grill, where you order at the register. Brussels Sprouts: 5/5. I really loved the charred crispiness they were able to achieve on this. The balsamic and sesame seeds really tie it together. Fried chicken sandwich: 4/5. It was a panko crusted chicken, which I found to be good, but was wishing it was buttermilk fried to get the airy crispiness. The bread and condiments inside complimented the sandwich well! The salad was okay.. the dressing was very vinegar heavy. F&L Burger: 4/5. I was pleasantly surprised by this burger. It was good but I found it strange that the special sauce was served on the side. I also thought the bread was well toasted. I ordered well done because my bf said the medium is sometimes too rare, but it was still pink inside for being well done. I actually preferred it like this, but just be aware the cook in the patty may be inconsistent. I subbed sweet potato fries, and they were delicious! I really enjoyed their crispiness. Overall, great experience. I liked the ambiance and food! I'll be back again soon! :)

It has that authentic sports bar vibe without trying too hard. TVs going, people locked into games, and just an overall relaxed energy. It feels like a place you can come to regularly, not just once. It didn't feel like a tourist spot at all, more like somewhere locals actually hang out. Food-wise, it's solid bar food done right. Wings, burgers, and the kind of stuff you actually want when you're watching a game or just kicking back. Nothing fancy, but it hits and fits the environment. The drinks were on point too. Good beer selection, solid cocktails, and plenty of options if you're just trying to chill for a while. The setup with TVs and bar games makes it easy to stay longer than you planned. The staff and the crowd both added to the experience. It felt welcoming, people were comfortable, and you don't get that awkward feeling walking into a new place. Only thing to keep in mind is it's very laid back and first come first served. Depending on when you go, you might have to wait or stand around a bit. Overall, if you're looking for a real sports bar with good food, drinks, and a local feel, this is definitely a spot worth checking out.
