Best Seasonal Restaurants in Los Gatos

Our server was excellent providing us with above par attention and allowing us to split up our bill 3 ways. Our food was delicious with just the right size portions. My 4th visit to Los Gatos Parkside but first time visits for my 3 friends. All of them were impressed and will return.

Exceptional all the way around!! We've gone here since day one and will continue to do so, it's our favorite special place-thank you to the entire staff for always treating us so well!!

The newly opened Gardenia has lovely decor and ambiance. Quiet enough you can actually converse with your dinner partner. My husband and I enjoyed cocktails and a shared salad. He liked his scallops but I do not recommend the "moules frites." The fries were put into the mussel broth, rendering them of course soggy. Why do that? What a waste - but I guess I didn't need to eat those fries anyway. Prices are high for the quantity and quality received.

We had an incredible dinner last night…It was one of those meals that sticks with you. Right from the start, the atmosphere was something special. The live music added to the experience, making the whole evening feel warm, lively, and just a little bit magical. The wine list was seriously impressive…one of the best I’ve come across either domestically and internationally. The pairings were spot on, bringing out the best in every dish. And, speaking of food, the steak frites and braised short rib were absolutely delicious—perfectly cooked, deeply flavorful, and exactly what you’d hope for. Dessert was just as memorable. The Basque cheesecake and almond financier were both exceptional, the kind of sweet finish that lingers in the best way. If I had to nitpick, the amuse bouche bites and Korean fried chicken felt a little unbalanced, but honestly, that was a minor detail in an otherwise fantastic meal. The service was top notch, attentive, friendly, and never overbearing. Overall, it was a phenomenal night, and I can’t wait to go back.

We enjoyed our first meal at Opelia and would be happy to return. Service was professional - helpful and unobtrusive. The appetizer of dips was lovely and was suggested by our waitress. The vegetarian moussaka was delicious, though you must love cheese. We shared it, along with another entree. I think it would be too filling for one person. The remodeled interior is attractive. There were flickering lights and it is an old building, so they might want to check on that.
