I think most of the food there is good and reasonably priced. We recently ate there. My family liked the Filet Mignon, rack of lamb, Zesty prawns and I like their jumbo size prawns (unlike other place where prawns are tiny). Their waiters are nice and friendly. You don't have to wait long for your food. IF you want good food and nice service. This is the place.
Pros: good food, friendly waiters, fair price
Cons: dim at night

I first visited Steven Creeks Mazda because my Mazda 3 was showing a WARNING light... Mrs Duvall (Krista) took care of me; she was very professional: fast and easy. I was in and out within 15 minutes with a loan car. The next day I picked up my car - fixed and washed. Mrs. Duvall noticed my dashboard was cracked so she told me she will order a new dashboard...THAT'S BEING PROACTIVE! I requested a RX-8 for a loan car but Mazda doesn't offer RX-8 for loaners; She asked if I would like a Maita...:-)))) Thanks to Mrs Duvall I will be buying my 3rd Mazda from Steven Creeks :)))

The food here is SO good! I disagree with others that the waiters are rude, and I have never had a problem using a credit card. The restaurant is very busy, though, so the waiters can be rushed. But they are nice people.
The food is elegant and delicious! Simply the best in this area. I prefer it to the "New Krung Thai" by Valley Fair, although that one is good, too.
Pros: Delicious food
Cons: Can get busy at peak hours, so try to go at less busy times

San Jose Museum of Art is one of my favorite places! If you become a member by paying a $50.00 annual fee, then you can come to Kids Art Sunday which is the second Sunday of every month. At Kids Art Sunday, you get to come to the museum an hour before it opens and get special tour by the docent focusing on a special piece of art. It may be abstract, pottery or film. Then the kids get to do a special art project which relates to the piece of artwork they saw. I didn't think that I liked modern art, but I have really grown to appreciate it after visiting the museum on a consistent basis. My kids have learned a lot about art and so have I!

My lawyer, Jeff L, kept telling me about this place so I had to check it out.
I was very impressed. Bella Mia is probably one of the biggest restaurants in Downtown San Jose.
Who ever designed this restaurant had very good (and expensive) taste. Lots of mahogany stained solid woods accented by heavy brass . I used to be in the restaurant biz so I can appreciate the beauty in a well designed eatery.
The menu is Italian and unlike most "cookie cutter" restaurants that are popular now, from what I learned on my visit, everything in the Bella Mia kitchen is made from scratch. The prices are fair for dining out with some very good filet steak specials on mid-week nights.
While looking over the menu, my usual aperitif, Compari and soda with a twist was served promptly in a heavy rocks glass.
As recommended by the waiter, I tried a new lunch item on the menu, the rib steak sandwich with garlic fries. Grilled on an open flame and placed inside soft garlic French bread. This was one of the best steak sandwiches I have ever had and now I know where Gordon Biersch got the recipe for garlic fries. Try the fries with a side of ranch dressing dip and don't fill up on the warm foccacia bread and tasty cheesie spread before your meal arrives.
The espresso was served as it should be, rich, strong and creamy with a twist of lemon and raw sugar cubes...the best.
The service couldn't be any better for a Downtown restaurant.
I hear Bella Mia is famous for other dishes (scallopini and parmigiana) with many reviews and write-ups from critics.
"I'll be back soon"
Pros: Everything is made from scratch.
Cons: Parking in Downtown San Jose is the pits.

I love all three of Mandarin Gourment's restaurants. Favorites include their hot and sour soup as well as their Peking Duck. I find their Peking Duck to be just as good as those hole-in-the-wall Chinese restaurants. Their ambiance is very nice and they have friendly staff/waiters.
