    We really enjoyed the food. The breakfast burrito was GREAT and my daughter really liked the smores pancakes.

    The location was good but the service was lacking. The young man that sat us and took our drink order gave us high hopes but the woman that served us was very rarely around. Despite them not being very busy, we had to stop someone for every refill and eventually had to stand up and find someone to get us a ticket.

    Garden’s Gate Cafe is an absolute gem in San Jose. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed, and best of all—there was no wait at all. Huge shout-out to Juan, whose service was truly outstanding. He was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. You can tell they genuinely care about their guests here. Between the great food, amazing service, and comfortable vibe, this place is definitely one I’ll be coming back to. Highly recommend!

    Wow! This place has truly surprised me multiple times. The service goes beyond exceptional and we are always greeted with kindness and care. Aside from that.... The Pumpkin Spice Matcha and Caramel Macchiato are extremely delicious. The food is full of savory flavors and the portions they serve here are very large for a very solid price. We will be coming frequently. And look forward to seeing the staff soon.

    I have been waiting for a place like this to open!!
    Firstly, this restaurant is facing St Maria drive. It is not on Southwest Pkwy. Lol. There is a parking lot across the way that is nice! The restaurant sign kind of blends into the building. Overall, not too hard to find.
    Secondly, the food is super good! I had the Garden Gate Benedict. I substituted the bell peppers for spinach. Best decision ever! The steak is usually cooked through and can be a tad harder to cut into. Leaving it with bell peppers is not texturely nice for me. The flavor overall was definitely well seasoned and delicious!
    The other dish I got was the classic Belgium Waffle. I am very particular about my waffles. I love slightly crispy and fluffy waffles. A lot of other places make them so dense. This was the perfect blend. Absolutely LOVE this light texture!
    Lastly, if you love hot sauce like me there is three options. Tapatío, Tabasco, and The Pepper Plant.
    I highly recommend it. It isn't very busy right now, not sure if they are newly open. But if you don't want to wait long lines elsewhere and still want quality food and atmosphere. This is a great alternative! I will be back!
