Good Breakfast Bowl at 4:50AM (!) before my flight, fast service, Impressive considering what you get at airports these days.

Tried to order at breakfast bowl. We were told breakfast closed at 10:30. It was 10:25. THEN we tried to order a lunch item. After being ignored, we were told that we couldn't order lunch until 11!! We just left.

Decent food at SJC at the Terminal A entrance.

They didn't have salad when we went but otherwise decent good.

Worst customer service. The host took my order from 10 feet away. I had to scream my order a few times before he got it. I felt he was doing me a favor to take my order. Very impolite!
The place is expensive and the food so-so. I get that from airport restaurants. To compose it with bad customer makes this an unbearable experience.
Skip this place!

It’s a decent choice for lunch while waiting for my flight. Service was not quick because only one staff was taking orders in the bar.
By the way, if you want to eat in, just grab a seat. The cashier counter was for to go customer.
I think the food is decent, but the portion is small and a bit pricey. However if you don’t want to eat burgers etc this one is the best choice.

This place clearly isn’t owned by a smart person. How is a Mexican place out of salsa? They were out of numerous other things as well, so the owner needs to start paying attention to what needs to be ordered. I ordered the nacho and was only told after it arrived they had no salsa. I ordered no jalapeños but lettuce instead, but it arrived without jalapeños, without corn, and without salsa. The kind bartender did go in the back and find some corn. The “queso” tastes and looks like gas station canned cheese. Whoever owns this place should be ashamed of the prices they charge, and they are clearly too cheap to hire more help. I only give this place 2 stars because the cook and the bartender/manager seemed to be working hard, even if the cook wasn’t familiar with the menu or what was supposed to be on the nacho. Just FYI it’s $2 for extra sour cream, even though I didn’t get any salsa because they’re out. There is a military discount if you ask for it.

Ordered food here while waiting for my flight. Their menu selections looked really good so thought I would get some good food but was such a mistake. This place is so awfully slow esp.for an airport that you could really miss your flight.
The staff does not seem to care much and us awfully inefficient. They only had one person preparing the food while the rest were just chatting away. Had their quesadilla and jalapeno poppers. They tasted ok but really not worth the 25 minutes that I waited for my food. Unless your flight is delayed and you have a long wait, just skip this place altogether.
