Ben Lomond Restaurants

Wonder night with family, excellent service all the way from walk in to finish

A fun place with interesting cocktails. We really like the meatballs and Brussel sprouts, the chorizo boa not so much (the dough was undercooked and the meat a bit bland). Service was attentive. Quite noisy even on a Monday night

Never disappointed when dining at Cafe Cruz…we were celebrating our anniversary and were offered a complimentary glass of bubbly…the mahi mahi was cooked to perfection and I think they have the best salad menu in Santa Cruz.

Sat outside so noise level was low. Heaters were available for customers. Food was good and my table shared a few bites/starters. Ordered two rounds of espresso martini’s at $25/glass. A little pricy considering the plates were $18-$20. However, service was great. Friendly and engaging staff made the evening enjoyable. I live close to the restaurant, so will come back (sans the martini) but if I lived in San Jose, Parkside would not be top of list or recurrence. I gave Parkside a high score because I enjoyed my dining experience.

Great accommodation of a large party. Thank you for having us. All the food was delicious and I’m sure you will have our business in the future.
