The Village Bistro - San Jose

Santana Row is different things to different people. Some people go there for the high end shopping, some for the fantastic spa, and yet others for the fantastic food, drink and people watching opportunities.

Village Bistro is a popular destination most days, they seem to be especially busy on weekends when people sit outdoors and celebrate the good weather with good food, and good wine. Their wine list deserves a special mention, they have a really diverse selection to pick from, and source lesser known wines from all over the world!

One of my favorite things is that their menu changes with every season, so theres always something new to look forward to. They also offer small plates, so you can get a few different things and share it with your group. 

Lunch, below, consisted of  Summer Mix Grill with Lemon Garlic Prawns, a well conceived dish, with great falvors, Turkey Ruben (yep! Turkey) great, but on the sweet side, and the Vegetarian Cobb which was a hit. The Caipirinha Cooler was refreshing, and complemented the meal well.

Go for brunch, go for dinner, just go! Most importantly, save room for dessert, especially their seasonal creme brulee. It is a must do.

Bottom Line:
Price - $$
Ambience - Trendy
Vegetarian Friendly - Yes
