    Lajevard Diner Cafe in San Jose is a new Persian diner and tea house where we will be their new regulars‼ Mina and her son just started a new venture together a few weeks ago and we can see every detail is full of intention. From the moment you walk in it's welcoming, great quality Persian high tea, Kim chi burger, and paratha. The babka is the best chocolate pastry I've ever had! @DateNight | D will definitely be back to try their other menu items #bayarea #foodie #persian #tea #datenight

    The owner, Mina, is so nice. The food fresh, great flavor and generous portions. The restaurant has great decor. Can't wait to go back and try breakfast.

    Went for early brunch on Sunday. Not crowded. Staff was friendly and helpful. We ordered the Sobhaneh (Persian breakfast) and it was so fun to try! Came with a variety of sweet, savory, sour, and fresh accompaniments to go with the flatbread along with egg and meat of your choice. The persian tea was so aromatic and perfect to go along with the food. As an aside, they also have home made cookies and pastries that were fresh baked same morning! Will def go back to check out other items such as their interesting selection of cold drinks.

Happen to be around and felt that I have to grab their coffee. I ordered pecan latte and flatwhite with oat milk and LOVE IT! I sometimes grab their beans too so that I can drink coffee at home. I got my coffee pretty fast (barista was so kind) and was able to sit down a little bit, enjoying the weather (it was raining in the morning which was perfect for coffee :))

They had some Fanime specials for the con (katsu and egg salad sandwiches, spam musubi), seasonal drinks, of course coffees and teas, and non caffeinated drinks, as well as some food too (heated up pastries, both sweet and savory). There's a restroom with a code and a couple seats and tables with outlets to charge your devices. Service was welcoming and efficient especially after the crowds started to pick up. I got the: 1) Egg Salad Sando: -You can tell these were handmade in store. They had cute washi tape to hold the packaging together. -Solid egg salad sandwich. Slightly sweet white bread and generous amount of egg salad inside the sandwich. Creamy mayo taste that isn't too sour or tart, lots of egg in it. Perfect for an anime con next door. 2) Cappuccino: -I got this no sugar and sugar free and it came out with some pretty latte art. I thought it was mostly ok and boyfriend thought so too, but after several sips and when it was too late since we really had to get to the con, it just became too disgustingly sweet for him and he had to throw it away. 3) Yuzu Fresh Fruit Sparkler: -Yuzu puree with sparkling soda water. -Refreshing and not bad, but even after mixing this was a bit sweeter than what I would have liked and again, in our rush to leave, we couldn't really get this adjusted. I ended up pouring most of it in a water bottle to enjoy later and put in my bag. But ended up not finishing it in the end. Maybe next year I'll try again or just stick to the food stuffs.

It's a small place but has indoor & outdoor eating. Lively (Latin?) music & an extensive menu. If you have a large party or are with picky eaters, this place has it all. I ordered their egg scramble with chorizo. 5/5 The rice & beans were seasoned so good. Even as sides, as individual items they were DELICIOUS. The chorizo & eggs weren't overly greasy & the tortillas were good. My partner ordered the steak sandwich. 4.5/5 Flavor was amazing. The steak was a little chewy. The sauce on the side complimented it very well but not necessary as the flavor of the steak was great by itself. I ordered a strawberry mimosa, as well. It was really lacking for me. Didn't taste any strawberry. Just looked like pink champagne. 2/5 Overall, the food & customer service was great. Clean bathrooms. Good vibes. Will definitely come back & try the rest of the menu.

Breakfast burrito had way too much egg, tortilla chips w salsa were stale, just to name a few issues. Guac was pretty solid tho. Bottomless mimosas: prob only thing I'd return for. I'd get the bottomless and no food. Patio area is nice to chill at.

I've noticed that Vietnamese coffees tend to taste different depending on where you get it from. The little short lady with the brown highlights in her hair that helped me today was so damn sweet and precious, it makes me want to almost cry LOL. Ambience kind of reminds me of an open tavern, but more... modernized and simplified I guess? Anyways- I work at a doggy daycare and the Vietnamese coffee here hits all the points for me: smooth, creamy, delicious, and TURNS ME INTO AN EVEN BIGGER ENERGIZER BUNNY THAN SOME OF THE DOGS I WORK WITH.

Our breakfast bagels with sausage and bacon were very yummy! And very well priced for the size. You order at the counter and they take a few minutes to make your food before calling your name out. Super easy and quick! There is some outside seating but it is a little limited. However, these bagels are great for eating on the go/in the car which is what we did :)

The bread was soft and fresh, and everything inside tasted balanced rather than heavy or greasy. It's simple food, but done properly, which makes a big difference. Coffee was also better than I expected and worked well with the sandwich. The staff were friendly and easygoing, and even though it was fairly busy, the wait wasn't long. Overall, it's just a nice, low-key place for a casual bite. Nothing overly fancy, but definitely somewhere I'd go back to when I'm in the mood for a good sandwich and a relaxed atmosphere.

Upon entering, I loved how spacious the place was, especially with the variety of foods they had: egg sandwiches, matcha lattes, coffee, and lots more. I was fortunate enough to try their egg drop in a jar alongside bacon and cheese, and their matcha latte. Both were very delicious and had a very natural taste to them :) They had self-order kiosks but at the same time, their hospitality and customer service was on par. They were very accommodating with regards to dietary restrictions (especially when it came to the milk selections for lattes, matcha was no different). I will definitely be coming back to this place to try more! (Hint hint: I may also try their other location as well -- that to.be saved for another time)

    Hey there party People…read more Decided to venture into Willow Glen today on the hunt for something new to try. Boy howdy did we hit the Mother Load with "The Table". We hit the Brunch hour and the place was rocking. We were able to sit right down amazingly. There is a fabulous patio to people watch and enjoy the California weather. Our server Charles was really great. He walked us through the menu giving us the 911 on watch to order. Most of the plates were perfect shareable bites. Making it easy to try multiple plates and really get your inner Foodie on. We started with the Seasonal Banana Pancakes with crushed walnuts and cinnamon maple syrup. Inside the pancakes were fresh bananas and the walnuts were crushed very small but added a great texture. Moving on to the Chicago Steak sandwich don't get confused but in Chicago they refer to Roast Beef as steak. The Au Jus dip was very flavorful without being a salt bomb. Loved the potato roll they used all round a killer sandwich. Going a little outside the box we tried the Jerk Chicken Sandwich. The pineapple slaw with this amazing peppery chutney type sauce played so well with the acid of the pineapple. Another must have sandwich. I ask you how can you go to a new restaurant and not have some dessert. With everything else being so good our expectations were pretty high and we were not disappointed. The Giant Profiterole is exactly that GIANT and stuffed with White Chocolate Gelato and Hot Chocolate Sauce that you can drizzle over the top. To fricken die for good. If you are in Willow Glen and you don't stop here you are missing out on something wonderful. Be kind to one another

When we were seated, we were given a list of items that were not available. I originally wanted to try the pancakes but ended up ordering the chicken sandwich instead. This was genuinely one of the worst chicken sandwiches I have ever had. It was extremely gristly, fatty, and made with dark meat, which felt like an odd choice for a chicken sandwich. I'm not sure why this cut of chicken was used. The fries were alright, but they did not come with the sandwich and cost an additional $5. Our total came to almost $90 for three entrees with no beverages. I was especially frustrated because my sandwich was inedible. For the price and quality, I will not be returning and would not recommend this place.
