    Werecently had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant on Santana Row. My husband discovered it by chance, and we were surprised to find it empty during Saturday brunch, given its exceptional qualities. The food, location, and service were all outstanding. However, I was struck by the lack of signage both outside and inside the building. As a business owner myself, I'm puzzled by this lack of visibility for such a wonderful place. I believe this restaurant deserves to be discovered and enjoyed by many more people.

    Tessoras is an absolute gem! From the moment I walked in, I was captivated by the warm, inviting ambiance and the effortlessly chic yet cozy vibes. The wine selection is top-tier, offering a thoughtfully curated variety that caters to every palate. Whether you’re a casual wine drinker or a seasoned connoisseur, you’ll find something to love here. A huge shoutout to Monica, who made the experience truly unforgettable. Her bubbly, happy personality was infectious, and her knowledge of wine was beyond impressive. She somehow knew exactly what I wanted—before I even knew it myself! Every recommendation was spot on, making the night even more special. If you’re looking for the perfect spot to unwind, enjoy exceptional wine, and soak in an amazing atmosphere, Marta’s is the place to be. Can’t wait to come back! 🍷✨

    It was great to be able to get in on Valentine's Day. Eventually the place was full and very lively. The service was excellent, as usual, as were the food and drink, also as usual. The servers are quite friendly and remember you. It's possible to enjoy drinks and a meal for a very reasonable price if one pays attention. The ambiance is uplifting, and the venue fills a niche which in this area seems otherwise to be unspoken for.
