Inspired by the birthplace of the original Parisian brasseries along the Left Bank of the Seine River, Left Bank Brasserie is an authentic Parisian-style brasserie by Chef Roland Passot. Left Bank pays homage to the joie
de vivre that is synonymous with the Left Bank neighborhood in Paris. Guests are invited to step into
French culture, in a vibrant, social atmosphere that captures all the charm of traditional brasseries
and iconic alfresco dining of France. An all-day menu features authentic French cuisine utilizing
seasonal, local and organic ingredients, and consists of iconic lighter fare such as oysters, tartare and
prawns provençal, in addition to heartier classics like coq au vin and beef bourguignon. Inspired by the
Parisian-style Bar Américain, an extensive cocktail menu features classics of a bygone era, along with a
wide range of rotating taps, seasonal drafts and bottled beer, and an expertly-curated wine selection.

One of my favorite places in San Jose. Very nice in the summer evenings outside and cozy inside in colder or rainy weather. Especially like the appetizers menu, my most often ordered dishes are charcuterie and fondue. Husband enjoys escargot. Today we were sitting at the table facing side windows, it was not crowded and created solitude experience, which was perfect for the occasion.

We spent over $300 for a group of 4 celebrating a birthday. Adding a $2 charge for the birthday scoop of ice cream is annoying more than anything. Food was tasty, fondue was good with the blended cheese. Service was okay but nothing memorable. Felt rushed at the end when he was going on break or leaving.

Everything was great except the noise in the restaurant. It was so loud that we could not hear each other speak across the table. We literally had to yell at one another in order to hear each other. Yikes!!

I always enjoy coming to Left Bank at Santana Row for a nices hot meal that is delicious. Unfortunately, this wasn't the case last night. Our food was tough, cold, and bland. This is not the usual experience I have had with this restaurant, so maybe it was just a rough night. These were also signature dishes, so I was shocked and surprised.

They were able to seat us earlier by a half an hour which was great, the food was tasty but the pork chop was gristly, service was a little slow, especially trying to pay.
Left Bank Santana RowResponded 6 days ago
Thank you for your feedback! We're glad we could seat you early and that you enjoyed the tasty food—but sorry the pork chop didn’t quite hit the mark and the service was slower than it should have been. We’ll work on stepping up our game and hope you’ll come back soon for a smoother, even more delicious experience!
