Restaurants near Santana Row

We have a reservation at 6:30 for 4 people on a Monday evening. When we got there they sat us outside in the patio. I asked the host if we could sit inside the restaurant. They told us” NO” because there was nothing available inside. I can see that there was a lot of empty tables. So we just like ok we can sit in outside. Our dinner took over 2 hrs and I look inside the same table were still empty. I still don’t understand why can we sit inside. Anyway!! Their food has improved and the service was good.

The food is flaveorful, but the pace is toooo slow. We were there for lunch and spent 3 hours, including 30-minutes wait for dessert. Onion soup cheese was somewhat burnt, so it tasted bitter. Half of Brussel sprouts were also burnt. Steak filet was very tender, Scollop was good too.

Really enjoyed our gathering here! Several of our party were delayed and we really appreciated the patience shown to us. Food was excellent- the bone marrow and brussel sprouts were the stand outs of the meal for sure.

IF the price seems high when first looking at menu, that thought quickly disappears when the food starts to come. I tend to skip the salad bar which is also amazing just so I can eat that much more of the amazing meats. Despite the continued presence of people walking around ready to deliver freshly cooked and wonder steak, chicken, pork, etc... options, the noise level remains relatively low which allows for easy dinner talk. It also happens to be an amazing value for families as kids under 6 eat free and children 7-12 are half off. My children have grown to half off age and have loved coming since they were younger and love to compete to see who eats more!

Had my early Christmas lunch with my husband today at LB. It’s our yearly tradition. We both ordered the beef bourguignon, one of their classic dishes, which is consistently fantastic. Service was friendly, pleasant, and professional. We love this restaurant. My other favorite dish is their Niçoise salad. Best in the Bay Area!
