   I took my wife out to dinner last night for the first since we had our baby girl. We both ordered the chicken parm pazookie meal deal and when we got our food it was cold. We let our server know and she offered to heat it up for us. We said that was fine…. The food came back same temp. Only the plate was hot. The only hot item we had to was the avocado egg rolls. I will not be returning to this location. We were better off going to blossom hill completely across town and waiting for the long line. This location is not worth the time or money.

   Thank you for sharing your experience Wyatt. Sounds like we didn't provide the outstanding service we strive for this time. We'll address this with the staff and make sure it doesn't happen again. We would like to make it up to you. Please swing back by our location and personally share this experience with the manager so we can do right by you.

   Service was very slow. In inquiring about our order after a long long time without any service we were told the server could not be found for 3o minutes effecting our table and others. A mgr appeared and eventually we received our meals. The mgr did apologize and provided a gift certificate for another visit lessening our poor experience. We appreciate the mgr accepting responsibility and will give them another chance to put their best foot forward.

   We had reservations for 3 at 4:45 on a Saturday. We realized at 3:45 we would likely run late, we changed our reservation on the app to 5:15. When we arrived at 5, they had our reservation and we were seated right away. The service was good and timely. There was a bit of a wait for our check, but there was a QR code at the table to pay, so we just checked out that way with no issues.

   Table for two for a business lunch. Service was good. Restaurant wasn’t too busy for late lunch and it was easy to carry on a conversation. Server was good and food and drinks came out quickly. It’s my go to place for me since it’s close to SJC.

    DO NOT make reservations here, as the restaurant does not honor them. My family and I arrived at 5 pm for our reserved table, as we had tickets for an event. We were told there would be a 10-minute wait. At 5:30 pm, we were still waiting and saw others with reservations having the same experience. Moreover, walk-in customers were given the same wait times. When I inquired about our reservation at 5:40 pm, I was informed it would be another 20 to 30 minutes, but we could eat at the bar immediately. Frustrated but pressed for time, we opted for the bar. On a positive note, our waitress was exceptional. She quickly took our order and provided outstanding service, which somewhat redeemed our experience.

    Gina, we’re truly sorry to hear about your experience with reservations. We understand how frustrating that must have been, especially with your event. Thank you for your kind words about our waitress; we’ll make sure to share your feedback. We’re working to improve our reservation process for the future.
