    I had a fantastic dining experience at Dio Deka. This Greek-Mediterranean gem truly delivers on flavor and hospitality. The yogurt was absolutely delicious, and the sauce made with it was just as incredible—rich, tangy, and the perfect complement to the dishes. The little amuse-bouche surprises between courses were a great touch, making the meal feel extra special. As for the main dishes, the lamb chops were cooked to perfection—juicy, tender, and full of flavor. The meatballs were equally amazing, well-seasoned and so satisfying. On top of the great food, the service was outstanding. Our server was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made the experience even more enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back! Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for amazing Greek-Mediterranean food with warm hospitality.

    Feb 14,2025. Full up with Valentine's Day crowd. Reservations highly recommended. We are here every Friday so we were prepared. Had freshly baked mini loaf with butter, main two meals of Oaxacan Mole chicken dish with salad and corn pie. Followed by chocolate desserts - ectasy sundae, special chocolate strawberry tiramasu, and Victoria hot chocolate. Always great experience.

    Incredible as always! Hero Ranch is a small, intimate restaurant that consistently delivers some of the best food in the South Bay. The execution is always flawless, with a menu that keeps my favorites while regularly introducing exciting new dishes. Their ribeye is perfectly cooked, the octopus is tender and flavorful, and the beet salad is a refreshing standout. The ahi appetizer is a must-try, and their cocktails are expertly crafted. Whether you’re coming for a special night out or just craving exceptional food, Hero Ranch never disappoints!

    We had a wonderful experience at Flowers Saratoga. They asked us the occasion and started us off with some complementary rose. The staff were very attentive and the starters were delicious. Recommend the truffle fries so tasty and perfectly crispy. We also enjoyed the special of the night lobster with risotto. Alex our server was amazing. He gave us a small desert to celebrate our night. We loved eating here on our date night.
