Restaurants near Residence Inn San Jose South

The food is excellent. Everything was well prepared. Service was excellent. One thing to note, the side dishes are enormous. You should either order a half or be prepared to split it with one or two other people. Another thing, if you order a glass of wine instead of a bottle have them bring it immediately. It is quite cold and it takes a while for a red to warm up to the point where it can be fully appreciated. The rack of lamb has 7 ribs. Be prepared to split it or take some home. Doggie bags were quite common. Another neat trick, their prepared drinks come with dry ice on the glass. It keeps the liquid cool but it does not dilute the flavor as it melts. One last thing. Be prepared for an expensive experience. Two of us with drinks, 2 glasses of wine, 2 half appetizers, 3 half sides and 2 main courses ended up with a bill over $550 including tip. Worth it for special occasions but a lot for any kind of regular thing.

What contributes to value and a great overall experience? We've been coming to Le Foret for a long time. We bring guests and have certain expectations for the drive, how the place will look, both outside and in, the service, the menu offerings and the food. Over the years, we appreciate the degree to which they have preserved every detail of the original concept of the restaurant. On this particular visit with out-of-town visitors, we had a difficult circumstance. The manager provided a great solution. Service was very professional. The food was exactly as we had hoped and they went beyond. The result was that we had a wonderful dinner experience with our visitors and all left feeling just great!

We visited BJ's on Valentine's evening 2025 for dinner. Over the last few years we loved the food at BJ's and everything always tasted really great. This time, we noticed that the food was good and not the same as previous times that we visited. It looked like it was thrown onto our plate and the flavors of the steak and chicken were ok but nothing to write home about. In addition the restaurant was very cold even though there was a full house. Many people in the restaurant ate their dinner with coats on.

The service was great and the foods came out fast. Our food was delicious. I had the salmon and my husband had the prime rib eye. The calamari and tiramisu also delicious. Highly recommend this restaurant. Only problem was the table was too small.
