- CcarlosVIPHawaii •4 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoWe visited The Club on Post on a whim after seeing great reviews on OpenTable, and we were not disappointed! The truffle fries and Brussels sprouts were delicious, and the drinks were exceptional. I had the short ribs, which were fantastic, and the lava cake for dessert was the perfect ending to the meal. We’ll definitely be back! 10/10.More infoThe Club On PostPrice: Moderate• Californian• San Jose•4.8
- LLloydVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •56 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe had a 12:45 reservation on Valentine’s Day . We arrived on time and our table was available. Something to remember that even if the restaurant is full there is usually a seat at the kitchen area facing the kitchen. We had classic Wiener Schnitzel with potato salad and Apple Strudel. Food was excellent. We always enjoying going to this restaurant in downtown Campbell. Recommend you make a reservation.More infoNaschmarkt - CampbellPrice: Expensive• Austrian• Campbell•4.8
- KKristineVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •47 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoThis place is so aesthetic with mood lighting, high ceiling, and a buzzing atmosphere. Service from Makaela was top notch fantastic on Galentine’s (2/13)! We need more people like her. Cocktails were good. I got the Crimson & Clover (refreshing) and my friend got the spicy Tree of Life. Food was plated beautifully and the only complaint was saltiness for the pasta, pork chop, and mushrooms. We let them know. Flavors were delicious aside from that. They serve complimentary amouse bouche (savory cone with steak tartare & caviar that day), a palate cleanser to sip on (chilled honey citrus liquid), and even mini waffle bowls filled with chocolate ganache. So many nice surprises! We ended the night with sweet, hot n freshly fried loukomades beignets with honey, nuts, and angelaise cream hand poured table side. Excellent experience!More infoEos & NyxPrice: Expensive• Californian• San Jose•4.5
