Our server Kristen was fabulous. We hadn't been to Willow Street in ages, and we had a wonderful family meal to celebrate a birthday. Highly recommend the Pistachio Spaghetti and the Vodka Prawns.

Campbell

About the restaurant

Kyoto Palace is dinner and a show!
We are located in The Pruneyard Shopping Center in Campbell on the second floor since 1976. Our main dining is teppanyaki - where the chef chops, dices and tosses your food right before your eyes. Home to the best fried rice, we offer meat, poultry and seafood grilled in front of you. It is a great spot to celebrate your special occasions or just a night out to dinner!

If you're looking for small bites and seasonal craft cocktails, our bar is a great vibe to relax and enjoy your night out.

As a party of 6 including 2 children ages 3 and 5 we are always hoping for a patient server. Jason was our server and we could not ask for better service. Jason was very attentive to our needs…. Crayons and paper for the kids, drink orders taken and delivered right away. Everyone’s orders taken , processed and delivered with all orders correct . Making sure that we had what we needed, Jason continued to check on us, filling water and refills on soda. We are also happy with the quality and value of the meals, and as a bonus, we came in a Monday, and kids eat free. That’s almost a $20 dollar discount. Food was great.

Morgan Hill

About the restaurant

In 1959, Frank and Tina D'Ambrosio decided to start a new restaurant venture along with their "Paisans" Mario and Enza Volpe, after Frank had much success with his first restaurant, the original "Frankie, Johnnie, and Luigi Too! In Mountain View, CA. Named after a good friend of theirs, they opened the original "Giorgio's" in the Foxworthy Shopping Center in San Jose, CA. One year later, cousins Anthony and Louise Dambruoso, affectionately known to the family as "Sash and Lou", took control of the restaurant and ran it for the next eight years. Pictures and paintings of these folks still grace the walls of the establishment today. In 1968, Frank's four sons assumed control of the restaurant and still own and operate it to this day. In 1997 they opened a second location in Milpitas, CA, where they still offer the highest standard of quality food, service, and value to their customers. Bon Appetit!!

We love Georgio's Morgan Hill, the service was great, food delicious and were seated inside instead of the patio (after we made reservations for the patio) because it was a very warm day. They accommodated us with no problem.

About the restaurant

Time counts at BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse. Since our humble beginnings back in 1978, we've continued to refine our brewhouse experience to make BJ's a place where you can make the most of any meal. We want BJ's to be a place where the moment you leave is the moment you plan on coming back. We pride ourselves in our craft and attention to detail. Our guests come here for our award-winning handcrafted beer. They come here for the Southern California twist we've put on the Chicago-style deep dish pizza. And they come here for our Pizookies®, our world-renowned dessert. But above all we know people come here to make their good times better. So in many ways we haven't just crafted a brand, but a mindset. And our guests are the reason for this. And it's because of them we're continually striving to make sure every moment they choose to spend with us counts. Welcome to BJ's, a restaurant with a Brewhouse soul.
