I've been to Grandview many times and the food has been just OK. It's the view you are going for. But last night, for our anniversary we had dinner and let me tell you it was one of the best dinners I've had in a long time. The food was amazing, cooked perfectly and of course you can't beat the view. I don't know if it's because the menu changed slightly and maybe there's a new chef but KEEP DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING. It's perfection. Now granted, it's not inexpensive. but for what you get, in my mind it's worth it. Especially if you are going for a special occasion. Splurge.

The venue was beautiful and the food was really good but the service was not great. When we got there we checked in for our reservation, the host went away to check on the table and when she came back she acted like she’d never seen us. When she was walking us to the table another group was coming out so we let them go and she left us behind so we had to run to catch up. The waiters all acted like we were bothering them constantly and considering this place seems to specialize in special occasions it was weird. I hate to say it because I’ve been in the service industry but it was just that bad.

Sure — here’s a clearer, polished, and slightly more cohesive version of your review while keeping your original tone and feedback intact: ⸻ We had a 9:00 pm reservation but were seated a bit earlier, which we appreciated. The hostess seated us on the bottom floor, which was fine. Unfortunately, the service was extremely poor. It took over 20 minutes just to get drinks, even longer to receive them, and even more time before we could place our food order. We waited over an hour for our meals. The appetizers were good, but the wine (at $50 a glass) and the beer were both disappointing. Two of us ordered the lobster carbonara special, which was completely flavorless. Aside from the nice view, the evening was a letdown. We didn’t receive any bread, the waiter barely checked on our table, and simple touches you’d expect at this price point were missed — no extra plates for the lobster tails, no Parmesan offered for the carbonara, no follow-up about how our meals were, and no effort to address the poor drinks when we mentioned it. For the price, we expected much more and won’t be returning anytime soon. ⸻ Would you like a version that’s a little sharper, a bit more polite, or more casual? I can adjust it if you’d like.

Between us we had four dishes. Three of them were just average. i expected better for the pricing. It’s a nice setting but way overpriced. Plus they work hard at upselling flowers, wine, photos. I can’t imagine we will go back.

Servers are very nice and attentive. The view was of course gorgeous 🤩. Mostly couples on dates. The drinks and food 4/5 but overall worth going at least once for the experience.

I had a wonderful experience at Grand View in San Jose, California. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the elegant and welcoming atmosphere, paired with the spectacular view that truly lives up to the restaurant’s name. The food was simply outstanding. Every dish was prepared with great care and high-quality ingredients. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the presentation was impeccable. I tried several dishes, and all of them exceeded my expectations, especially [you can add a specific dish here if you’d like to personalize it] The service was another highlight of the evening. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and professional. They made sure every detail was perfect, and I felt very well taken care of the entire time. I highly recommend Grand View if you’re looking for a top-notch dining experience in San Jose. I can’t wait to go back!
