love is blue:“Second time at this delightful restaurant. This time we started with the great avocado bacon!!! Each had a classic margarita - delicious and rich! We then tried the salmon tacos, and went with the Modelo Espeziales - the tacos were amazing (we would have them again!). The service was delightful as always and we felt very well taken care of. This is our go to Mexican restaurant. Everything on the menu is good so we need to try them all!”
love is blue:“This place is in the Marriott. Our server was really nice and knowledgeable. We ordered two glasses of red wine. I forget the names. This place is perfect. I liked my filet mignon better. I enjoyed my experience here.”
358***33:“This is an Indian restaurant located on Santana Road in San Jose. There are several Indian supermarkets and restaurants in San Jose because there are many Indians working in high-tech companies in Silicon Valley. This restaurant is not very big, but the decoration is quite exquisite and the dining environment looks good. Most of the Indian dishes here are added with curry, which has a strong taste. I don't know if Westerners can accept this taste except Asians. I prefer Indian food. I feel that the dishes and services provided by this restaurant are good.”
358***33:“This is a Western fast-food restaurant that mainly serves hamburgers. It's probably a chain restaurant. It's located on Santa Teresa Boulevard in San Jose's Blossom Valley. It's not very large, but it looks clean and tidy. The restaurant is not crowded with people eating, most of them are taking out, and the service is relatively good.”
