    Street Tacos: Carne Asada, Al Pastor, Carnitas.
    Carson M.

    The street tacos are amazing. The carnitas meat is to die for! So tender and juicy the service was good. Their sauce has just enough kick to it with good flavor as well. Would definitely eat here again!

    Nachos with barely any meat

    Ordered the nachos today and there were barely any meat in it. Even less meat than Chipotle. Totally dissapointing for $13.50. I'd be happy to pay $15 for extra meat.

    New ownership, but better tasting food and food! Thank you Nef for your kind service and expertise on Mexican food

    Regular burrito

    Pretty good, just like the original but better. The staff is chill, they offer more items than the original Iguanas. They even have the orange sauce but spicier! Not bad if you miss that Iguanas taste. Good stuff Iguanas Santa Clara, keeping the spirit alive.

    This is second time in a row that Iguanas has messed up and I will probably not be ordering from them again. First time around, they cancelled my order 2 hours after it had been scheduled for delivery; citing lack of eggs at 11am on a Saturday. Second time around, gave me a beef burrito instead of a vegetarian eggs and tots burrito.

    Metal Shrapnel

    7/1/25 Ordered a regular burrito (carne asada) and asada fries. Not sure what has happened recently, but the quality has gone down unfortunately. Carne asada fries were not bad. However, there was a piece of metal shrapnel found in my regular burrito.

    I stop by here for lunch for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. I ordered a burrito bowl and it was delicious.

    Atleast 1/4 of my burrito was just tortilla and another 1/4 was lettuce. Overall the burrito just felt very empty.

Can't wait to get back and try the rest of the menu! We decided to sit on the far patio area to have a better setting/view on Sunday and loved it, especially our server, Nichole! We had incredible service from Nichole, and felt seen, heard, and felt we had a truly attentive person taking care of us rather than someone there for tips/money. She guided us through the big menu and really made the experience complete. Thanks King's kitchen for the wonderful food & thank you Nichole for the outstanding service, cheery energy, & positively wonderful experience! See you all soon!

We have a few favorite dishes that we like to get and some seasonal items like the soft shell crab, the cat fish, and also the caramel ice cream sandwich. I almost always get the lobster roll or the bbq shrimp. The service is usually really great too! There used to be a server named Lawrence who worked there and we saw him every time and we loved talking to him and we were sad that he left, but happy for his new chapter in life. We recently went again and had a server who was really nice and friendly, her name was Taarini. It was easy to have a conversation with her and you can tell she was genuine and not just trying to do her job for the sake of doing her job. We will continue to go back here as one of our regular date night spots. Never fails us and it's always a bonus when we're able to catch the seasonal items.

We arrived on a Saturday evening for dinner. The restaurant is located in a nice newer plaza area in Cupertino off the Vallco Parkway close to where Vallco Shopping Mall once stood. Parking is available in the parking garage in the plaza. The restaurant is medium size but maximizes the space efficiently with plenty of booths and tables for dine in. The modern decor is nice and sleek. Whereas the vibe is bustling and welcoming. We ordered the combo of 2 pounds of shrimp with heads on, garlic noodles, and 2 steamed rice. The seafood boil came out in a large silver bowl instead of the usual large clear bag. I found this to be much better in presentation. Everything was so delicious. The captain Loui sauce was so flavorful and sweet. The shrimp were plump and juicy. Garlic noodles were tasty. A couple of saucy yummy corn and potato were found in the bowl which was a good surprise. Overall we enjoyed our experience at Cap't Loui. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The combo options were a great deal. Free Ice cream popsicles for dessert were a nice surprise at the end. We will definitely be back as their seafood boil is one of the better options in the South Bay.

Pretty small inside, but enough room for a large party, if need be. Pricing for sea food & options, are pretty decent & the taste of the food is yummy, I think it's like the rest of the Seafood Boil Establishments, but every place has their own unique flavor.

    My go-to seafood boil spot in the South Bay! I remember…read morecoming to this restaurant's grand opening and thinking - this place is going to be insanely popular because the sauce is so good! Thankfully, the masses have not found it yet. My regular order is as follows: - Combo 1 with 2lbs of head on shrimp and 1lb of clams. House special sauce medium - House special sauce spicy on the side - Rice on the side (mandatory) - Strawberry lemonade Some week days, they also have raw oysters for a dollar so check that out! An amazing deal that is hard to find in SJ (more prevalent up in SF from lived experience). I usually get the same staff member. I think his name is Cory and he is super friendly and attentive! Highly recommend checking it out if you like seafood boil as much as I do!

    Unfortunately, our experience was very disappointing…read more The seafood arrived only warm, and the additional sauce we ordered was barely lukewarm. The fries and garlic noodles came out about 20 minutes after the seafood by which point we had already finished eating. We also had to flag our server down twice to follow up on the fries and garlic noodles. The service itself was okay, but the timing and lack of follow-up were frustrating. The oysters were particularly disappointing. They looked sad and were not what we expected. I also ordered a Coke Zero but received Diet Coke instead despite Coke Zero being listed on the restaurant's website. Most concerning, I became sick with what I believe was food poisoning after the meal. I can't definitively say the restaurant caused it, but the timing was concerning and made an already disappointing experience even worse. Lastly, they advertised a free appetizer for signing up for their rewards program with an entrée purchase. We signed up and purchased an entrée, but when we tried to redeem the offer, we were denied and told to use it on our next visit instead. Given our experience, there won't be a next visit. Overall, between the lukewarm food and sauce, delayed sides, disappointing oysters, incorrect drink, getting sick afterward, and the rewards promotion not being honored, this was an extremely disappointing experience. We won't be coming back.

You can also pick up some bouquets in their floral section. One thing I love to get is their Truffle Honey Egg Sando. I love how the honey compliments the sando and the truffle flavor is perf. Another memorable dish is the GIWA Prime Long Rib. So softtt, flavorful, perfect balance of meat and fattiness, and cut in to perfect bite size pieces. The salad on the side also adds a nice refreshing touch. Also plated nicely too. The table also loved the Truffle Potato Pancake. Again, they do truffle well! The Creamy Uni and Tobiko Rice Pot was also really good! The drinks come with a cute heart straw :) They have a few new, unique dishes that are definitely worth trying. Service was great, super friendly/communicative/informative. Parking lot can sometimes be packeddd/busy.

That said, I would recommend avoiding peak/busy times. One of the dishes, soufflé, we ordered was essentially like a flat pancake during the rush, which was disappointing compared with the quality we expected. Although it indicated on the menu it will take around 30 minutes to make, yet that dish was the first one came after we ordered, less than 10 minutes later! More importantly, we made a reservation through Yelp for Labor Day weekend. However, when we arrived, we were told that the restaurant does not accept reservations during holidays. If that is the restaurant's policy, it should be clearly stated on Yelp and the reservation system should be restricted for those dates. It was frustrating to find this out only after arriving, especially when we already had guests with us. We were then given a shortened dining time, which made the experience even more stressful.
