Today we came home from a camping trip, and I talked everyone in to ordering from Local Kitchens. Mostly because I was craving more lumpia. I was surprised to see Lumpia Company added to the possible restaurants to order from. We got food from almost every place. Everything was fine. It wasn't amazing. It looked better than it tasted. The burritos from Senor Sissig were missing the spice (Hella, Hella Spicy and Spicy)...and eggs. The winner was probably the burger from The Melt. And...while no one complained about their food, no one raves about it either. The Cheeseburger lumpia felt like they were merely ground beef...no cheese, or cheeseburger like flavor to enjoy. I'd skip this location, and just go to the original spot in Oakland I've frequented. It's much tastier, and generally quite a bit more exciting. I hate to say it: this is not the stuff that foodie fantasies are made of. read more

Local Kitchens is a singular location with offerings from a bunch of smaller businesses. Most of the customers order online for pickup, but they do have two tables inside if you wanted to eat there. I would highly recommend this place for those nights where you just can't decide where y'all want to eat because there is definitely something here for everyone. Nash & Proper's Sammich (5/5): This was the BEST fried chicken sandwich I've ever had in my life. The chicken is huge and unbelievably moist to the point that it starts dripping the minute you bite into it. The meat itself is flavorful all the way throughout and has the perfect spicy, crunchy shell on the outside. This is a must get. Señor Sisig's Tosilog Burrito (3.5/5): Perhaps because I had this with the Sammich, but it felt a bit under seasoned. I wish the garlic rice had more of that garlic flavor and there were more tomatoes because the eating experience was a bit dry. I liked the flavors that were there; I just wanted more of it. read more

I searched for Nash & Proper and couldn't find it from Yelp. From the Local Kitechens App, we ordered the 1/4 chicken, Falafel, and Fries. That's the neat thing about Local Kitchens, the convenience to order things from different "restaurants" at the same time, under the same payment. The chicken was wonderful! Juicy meat, spicy and crispy crust. Two pieces of them rested on two plain toast that soaked up the spicy juice. That's was interesting. Then 6 falafel balls and hummus from Sajj. That's a good deal and the balls was aromatic and tasty. The "crinkle fries" was good too. read more

What a great idea to partner with different restaurants and combine them into one kitchen! It's perfect for those indecisive moments when choosing a spot to eat. I ordered the Garden Box from Asian Box and it was perfect + I got to grab a yummy mango drink by Sushirrito. Plus the staff was friendly and our order was ready quickly. Very cool. read more

After coming here several times, we've sampled enough of the menu to attempt a meaningful review. They actually combine several different menus into one, partnering with different restaurants to license a few popular items that would work in a combo kitchen. We started coming here to try the Senior Sisig Fil-Am fusion burritos, from the city, but they've added more local favs like Asian box and Curry Up Now. The store is located on the quiet edge of Cupertino. There is good street parking and more parking in back. They have some indoor seating, but its mostly takeout and delivery. // Senior Sisig The signature sisig dish is a limey vinegary pork meat (or other kinds of meat), rolled into a burrito with adobo infused rice. They have the other typical burrito ingredients, and the whole thing is a different experience. Quite good--the reason why we came. It was worth it. You can also get the famous sisig meat in a bowl with the adobe rice and veggies. I would avoid the Toscino sausage burrito. They actually gave me this by mistake the first time. A bit dry. I called and they fixed it. Yay sisig! // Little Chihuahua - Mexican We also sampled the ordinary burritos. The super burrito is what you'd expect. Ordering online, we were able to customize the carne asada experience. Whole wheat tortilla, cheese, sour cream, and guacamole, which seemed to be fresh. The shrimp burrito was good too. I recommend not getting the super, so you can really taste the shrimpy goodness. // Sajj - Mediteranean I love Sajj, which is a chipotle style of build your own. Using the website, we built a chicken shwarma bowl with tumeric rice, eggplant, tzatziki, cucumber mix, on a bed of greens. Extra tahini sauce request was honored. // Curry Up Now - Indian fusion They call this is Indian street food, but I suspect its just more like americanized indian. Unfortunately, they don't offer the Deconstructed Samosa, my favorite item there. But we did get the Tikka Masala bowl. One time we ate in store. It hit the spot. But when we ordered it delivered, it wasn't quite there. The chicken was okay, but the lentils were a soggy. Maybe this just doesn't travel well. // Wise Sons - bagels So the bagel shop has a hot pastrami sandwich. Very good flavor, meat stacked high on the sourdough, but it still seemed a little small. // Slocumbe - Ice cream I saw a bunch of pints so I thought why not. The crazy flavors secret breakfast, which has kids cereal in it! She said it was popular, and I can see why. They also have blue bottle vietnamise coffee. What a combo of bitter and sweet. Good stuff. The rub was that the pints are not cheap. They were good, but the next day I happened to notice them in Andronicos for a couple bucks less. So its good if you're doing a takeout party, but don't order your icecream to stock your freezer from here. // Asian Box They featured a picture of the grilled chicken on the home page, so that caught our eye. Rice was good, and they had their signature street dust seasoning. Always a favorite. Overall, there were some hits and some misses. I liked that they have such choice, and good website, and easy pickup. Now that we know what's good, its a great place for take out when we can't agree on what to get. There's something for everyone here. read more

We came here after the reopening and it was okay. I got the cauliflower burrito and the latin ninja sushirrito burrito. The wait time was very long, at around 45 minutes even though there weren't many people waiting, so we ended up leaving and coming back. The cauliflower burrito was good, however, the sushirrito burrito was way too salty. It shouldn't have been that salty in my opinion, so we ended up throwing away the rest. Overall, I'd return for the cauliflower burrito but would be mindful of how salty the sushi burritos are here. read more

Wow what a fantastic gem in Cupertino. Super clean and sleek. Lots of ipads to place an order. 8 or 9 restaurants to select from so your entire party can eat what they want and be served at the same time. The food quality is amazing. The pork from Asian Box is so tender. I love all the fixings on top like crunch bean sprouts, shallots, and peanuts. Everyone loved their food. We ordered from Proposition Chicken and Asian Box. Customer service is top notch. Super friendly and helpful. I definitely need to go back and have some of my favorites like Senor Sisig, Curry Up Now, and SAJJ. Super excited for the Mountain View location to open up. read more

This is an extremely useful place if you live in a household with different opinions about what to eat; where one person is doubling down on burritos for dinner while another just wants classic Mac and Cheese. It's a unified hall for popular eateries in the Bay Area like Señor Sisig, Sajj among others. I was able to order my burrito from Señor Sisig and the toddler was extremely happy with his Mac and Cheese from The Melt. They have a good number of kiosks where everything is labelled conveniently (vegan, gluten free). You could also just order online. The place is very clean, there is some seating though it feels like more of a waiting area than a sit down. (They didn't have high chairs.) The bathroom was also clean and service was great. read more

OMG - Sushiritto is now available at Local Kitchen! Just HAD to get it and am so happy we did. I got the Sumo Crunch - with a crunchy exterior and delicious crab and fried shrimp tempura... was delish but SO MESSY... had the little crunchy stuff EVERYWHERE... Hubby got the Salmon Samba - and it was still warm when we got it home! He devoured it... The service was AWESOME - placed the order and it was ready when they said it was - was doing final packing when I walked in! Am hoping this location will start offering Rooster and Rice... it's one of our family favorites and hard to drive all the way to San Jose for it! SO PLEASE consider it - especially since your other location offers it! :) Love that every member of the family can order what they want. This is a WAY overdue review as we've been going to Local Kitchen for our Senor Sisig fix. Love their burritos and prior to this order we got their melt burger! The food here is JUST like if you ordered directly from the establishment. With great service and ability for each family member to get exactly what they want across the different restaurants!! read more

There doesn't seem to be an existing page for Little Chihuahua specifically, which is the restaurant whose food I ordered at this Local Kitchens location, so I'm leaving my review here (feel free to redirect me if I missed the page!). I ordered online for pickup ahead of time, which was a quick process on the Local Kitchens site. The food was ready on time, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. They have a bathroom that was in pretty clean condition and told me they could just watch my food while I went to use it so I wouldn't have to bring it in with me. They also filled my water bottle by request which I appreciated since I had taken a pretty long trip on public transit plus driving to get there. The burrito itself was great - I love plantains and had to give this a try since I don't commonly see it put into burritos when I've been to other Mexican restaurants. It's definitely a decently sized burrito and great if you are a vegetarian and like a combination of sweet and savory flavors. Convenient way to try restaurants that may not have a brick-and-mortar store in your area with friendly service. read more

Summary: ghost kitchen with Sushirito, The Plant, Proposition Chicken, The Melt, Asian Box, Saaj, Senior Sisig. There are a few tables on site (inside and out). Details: They describe themselves as a "micro food hall" which is odd because there are only three tables inside. At least you can order from multiple restaurants and put it all on the same check. Pickup on site or have it delivered by DoorDash. To their credit, they seem to QA the food carefully. On my first visit, an unexpected 15 min delay on my proposition chicken order was explained by the manager "didn't pass the quality check" the first time it came out. The delay wasn't great but I'm glad I didn't discover it when I got home. The food-- The garden box from Asian box tasted exactly as it should. The yellow coconut curry had just the right amount of spice. If anything, it seemed like a larger portion than normal. Enough for two meals. Flipped Chicken from Proposition Chicken is two large pieces (thigh + leg) of slow-roasted rotisserie chicken with a little kick of chimichurri. Served with a buttermilk biscuit and tomato cucumber salad. There's lots more on the menu I want to try and I will. read more

So many choices to pick from, and everything I've tried has been good. They rotate out the restaurants/brands they work with ever so often, so there's always variety and a fresh menu to choose from. Service is quick and very friendly. You can use their app to order online or use the kiosks when you get there. Plenty of seating available inside and out, and they provide a self serve water, utensils, and condiments area. I always stop by here when I'm in a hurry cause they're just so efficient. My personal favorite are the burgers, no matter the brand, they're always huge and perfectly done. read more

Very little choice if you are a vegetarian. We wanted to order regularly but there just isnt much there for us. Out of all the offerings if you are a vegetarian you are limited to either the cauliflower burrito/bowl or the falafel. So like 2/50 entrees aren't meat oriented. read more

TL;DR: good logistics + bad rice = try other participating restaurants Note: my review is largely impacted by the food from Rooster & Rice. I've been a fan of the shared kitchen concept and the logistics (ordering, pickup, etc) were all super smooth and simple. Unfortunately, the food was not great (not factoring in ice cream since it's pre-packed) The Original Chicken Rice from Rooster & Rice - The chicken was delicious! Juicy, well-cooked, and flavorful even without the sauce, which in my opinion is a little on the salty end - Do NOT get the brown rice. Likely cooked the same way as white rice - that is to say, the brown rice was not cooked properly with hard grains outnumbering the edible ones - If this order was with "extra cilantro and extra cucumber", then I don't want to know how un-extra the base order amount is.. Humphrey Slocombe Blue Bottle Vietnamese Coffee Ice Cream - First time ordering a pint of ice cream from a shared kitchen and I was pleasantly surprised by how well it worked out - The ice cream came in a foiled-insulation bag to keep the pint frozen during the drive home and did exactly that - The ice cream itself was ok but I think it was more a flavor preference as I was hoping there'd be chunky bits in it instead of entirely smooth. Still yummy :) read more

I had always wanted to try Wise Sons' pastrami sando, but rarely had time when we visited The City. What a revelation in finding out there was a place in the area offering their most popular items. If what Local Kitchens serves is truly from Wise Sons, I have been missing out for so long. While the pastrami is not as thick or juicy/fatty as what you'd find at Langer's (in LA), the #19 homage is darn near one of the best I have ever had. What a great concept in offering us Southbay residents popular offerings from SF, and elsewhere in the Bay Area. The wife ordered Senor Sisig's Tocilog burrito. When she was working in The City, this was her "go-to" lunch item. I have a feeling she'll be able to continue that trend without having to invest much travel time. The team there was friendly, helpful, and prepared our orders with quality in mind. We are looking foward to visiting their Mountain View location when it opens in the coming weeks! read more

4.5/5 [COVID Pick-Up] There was a Yelp event at Local Ktichens that I was lucky enough to get invited to. On their website, they list all the restaurants per location and each restaurant's menu. I was able to order from multiple restaurants from one location online and schedule a later pick-up time. When I got there, my order was all ready to go, and the food was still warm by the time I got home. Senor Sisig Tosilog Burrito ($11.75): This was the most anticipated item but tue most disappointing. The tortilla was a bit hard and the stuffing was all pretty bland. Nothing stood out at all & we didn't feel satisfied Senor Sisig Cilantro Cream Sauce ($0.88): This sauce was really good so I kept it to use it as a dip or spread. Senor Sisig Ube Horchata ($4.25): This drink tastes exactly as it sounds. You can taste both flavors distinctly, yet they also blend well together to make one drink. Sajj Steak Shawafel Custom Bowl ($13.50): You can customize your bowl with so many different sauces & sides. I was surprised by how good everything was, especially the falafel. The steak was a bit dry but the fresh sides like the sumac cauliflower, hummus, eggplant ragaut made up for it. This bowl is perfect for a hot summer night since it's filling, full of flavors, & so refreshing. Sajj Mediterranean was also sweet enough to include a hand-written post card. The personal touch along with good food & great customer service is all a foodie could ever ask for. read more

Nine Bay Area favorites all in one kitchen? Such a cool concept! I picked up dinner on a Thursday night and the process was really straightforward. I placed my order online, selected a pick-up time, and paid in advance. It didn't take long to find parking and my order was ready when I arrived. The staff was welcoming and I noticed they had both indoor and outdoor seating available. You also have the option of ordering in-person at a kiosk or having your food delivered. My husband and I were craving different types of food, so we were happy that we were each able to try a different restaurant! He ordered a yummy tostada salad from The Little Chihuahua. I opted for a Filipino fusion burrito and ube horchata from Senor Sisig. Hands down- my top recommendation would be the ube horchata! While I'm excited to have restaurants nearby that I would otherwise have to drive to SF for, my only gripe is that you don't get the same dining experience/full menu as you would at the original location. Overall, several other menu items also caught my eye, so I would definitely return! read more

If you're in the South Bay but craving some popular San Francisco-based restaurant eats, check out Local Kitchens. You can order for delivery or pick up. Choose from: Mixt, Curry Up Now, Glaze, Señor Sisig, Wise Sons, Little Chihuahua, Sajj Mediterranean, Humphry Slocombe & Proposition Chicken. Staff is efficient and pleasant. Location is very clean. There are even a couple of tables outdoors. Nothing fancy, but definitely works. I appreciate that my order was ready at the state time. Based on my observation, they're doing pretty good business and they've just opened up. I got enchiladas and chips & salsa from Little Chihuahua and it pretty much tasted like I've had at Little Chihuahua's San Francisco locations. Super easy and relatively quick process. read more

Great concept, website works well and the employees are super nice! Ordered the Senor Sisig Burrito $10.75 (Tocino +$1.50, Spicy) and the Holy Moly Ravioli $8.00 for a total of about $22. Food was ready in 20 minutes. Owner reached out after initial review for the lacking experience to offer a credit of $25 for my next order. I ordered the Fried Chicken Sandwich, Matzo Ball Soup, and Ube Horchata. GET THE [UBE HORCHATA]! Such a nice blend of ube and horchata I'm definitely getting this again! [Senor Sisig Burrito]: Burrito does not come with meat. All meat is an additional cost. I chose tocino (+$1.50) and the burrito to be Spicy which made it out to be $12.25. The adobo garlic rice was lightly flavored and the tocino was in small pieces and did not have a robust flavor. Non-existent spice level. The sauce in the burrito did not make a difference. The burrito was just OK, I only ate half and forgot about it until the next day. Definitely unmemorable and wouldn't recommend especially for the price! [Holy Moly Fried Ravioli]: This was good, comes with 6 pieces and a side of tikka sauce, nothing super special. I wouldn't get this again but the crispiness was nice. [Fried Chicken Sandwich]: The flavor was good but the chicken was tough on the edges! Slaw was nice and tasty. If you get anything maybe get this. Chips were a nice touch. [Matzo Ball Soup]: Standard. Soup was nice, not too salty and the matzo ball was tender. Carrots were on the harder side and chicken was tender. Overall won't be going out of my way to order from here. The food reminds me of food truck food! A bit overpriced for the quality and quantity you're getting without the physical food truck appeal. Thank you to the owner for allowing me to give it a try again! read more

I got the chance to try Local Kitchens from a Yelp Elite event. The website can be a bit confusing - the restaurant selection is different based on your pickup location (so Cupertino didn't offer Saucy Asian while San Jose did). The concept of ordering once from multiple restaurants is intriguing (I've actually placed multiple Doordash orders from different restaurants), so I was excited to see how the food was! So from the Cupertino location, they were all new restaurants to us, so we got: - Senor Sisig Tosilog Burrito ($11.75) - Filipino sweet pork, adobo garlic rice, fresh tomatoes, and a fried egg - Oh my goodness!! This burrito really doesn't look that great, but it's AMAZING!! The tortilla is perfectly steamed and chewy, Filipino sweet pork tastes like Chinese lap cheung (sweet sausage), and the adobo garlic rice and fresh tomatoes add the perfect amount of savory umami. Then a little bonus fried egg in the middle. I was sad to share this!! 5/5 stars - SAJJ Chicken Shawafel Build Your Own ($13.50) - Chicken shawarma and falafel with a ton of customized options. We got it as a tumeric rice bowl, and you can add a ton of free hot sides, spreads, cold sides, sauces, and cold condiments. Our bowl ended up being a beautiful rainbow of colors and super fresh and tasty (especially loved the hummus and pickled cold sides that were expertly pickled)! The shawarma and falafel were a bit on the salty side but I'd totally recommend this. 4.5/5 stars - The Little Chihuahua Tostada Salad ($13.95 + $2 Garlic Shrimp and No Queso Fresco) - Was excited to try a gigantic tostada bowl (hello no dishes or waste because you EAT the bowl lol), but unfortunately this dish fell a little flat. The garlic shrimp were small and didn't taste that fresh, and the tostada bowl was way too greasy. Appreciated them offering this, but they need to improve the ingredients to get a better dish. 3/5 stars We wanted to order from MIXT as well, but didn't since their salads had limited options (no ability to remove cheese - so unfriendly to lactose-intolerant eaters). There's also no option to put in notes for any of the items, like you can on Doordash. They're offering $10 off for new customers (https://order.localkitchens.co/), so definitely worth a try! read more

A compilation of some of the popular food trucks/eats from San Francisco. You can either order online or at the physical location in Cupertino. Offers take out and delivery. Very easy ordering system on their online platform. You do need to make an account though which is a bit annoying. $10 off for your first order. Got a Protein plate with steak shawarma from Sajj, potato salad from Wise Sons, and a chicken taco from Señor Sisig. The protein plate from Sajj was abysmal. First off, they forgot the pita, which is one of the key features of the dish. Second, the portion of steak shawarma and salad were extremely minuscule. The entire "salad" comprised of no more than a handful of small leaves and a giant container of dressing. The meat was no where near the quantity as shown in the picture. Sauce quantity given was very generous, but in the end useless with no pita and little meat. Save your $13 and get a mediterranean plate elsewhere. Other places easily serve 2-3 times the portion size for the same price. Taco had fair amount of chicken - you can chose your protein. You do pay for the sauce - comes with two containers. The potato salad from Wise Guys was probably the highlight of the entire meal. They staple the bag closed but I would definitely do a double check before driving home. The pita was forgotten. No utensils given but we were eating at home. Would request if you are planning to eat there. It definitely feels like you are being charged SF prices. $6 for a taco is pretty ridiculous and for $13 you can get a lot more food from any other Mediterranean restaurant. read more

What a fun idea to aggregate all popular choices from popular spots! We visited as a part of the Yelp Elite event. We placed a takeout order for pickup at 5pm on Thursday, the online system was easy to use and intuitive. However, the description on a few items said that they can be veganized but there was no option in the ordering system to pick that. Weren't able to ask to remove the cheese or dairy either, there were options to leave out the other items in the menu, but wish it let us customize or add/drop more items. I picked "hella vegan burrito" from Curry Up and a vegan falafel bowl from Sajj. The burrito was 7/10, great portion and well wrapped. It was full of flavored rice, chickpeas and housed a crushed samosa in the middle. A little dry, but tasted really good. Would've liked more channa masala in the burrito which would have made it less dry. The falafel bowl was 10/10, small portion but really packed with flavor. Loved the falafels and the pickled veggies. Rice was a bit undercooked but overall a great dish. The mint sauce was just incredible! Overall a great first experience for pickup. Pickup was safe and socially distant, we just went in the store and asked for our order and it was handed to us. read more

We happened to see the balloon arch on our way home from a hike and thought... hey, new restaurant! Not really wanting to think of a place to eat, this store design fit our needs as the husband and I really couldn't decide on any particular thing we were craving. Upon arriving, we found that their registers weren't up and running to take our order, and were requested to order directly from the website. Honestly, it was a little overwhelming, but thankfully, being our first order, we got $10 off. Because they have 10 different restaurants within this same store (which I think is amazing by the way, and a logistical nightmare!), it took some time to go through all the menu items. What started out being "lunch", ended up being lunch, dinner, and maybe breakfast the next morning. We got to try Proposition Chicken, which I had never heard of, but saw great reviews for, plus just a little bit of everything else! Fried chicken and sweet honey biscuit from PC - the chicken was tender, and the biscuit was the right type of flaky and just sweet enough, the breading was not the style I typically like (seemed like a beer battering?), but super crunchy nonetheless. Fried chicken sandwich was also good, and held up well the next day. Garlic shrimp burrito from TLC was really good. Still doesn't compare to the burritos I've loved in San Diego, but you could really get the garlic flavor, and the shrimp was plump and juicy. Vegan Plate from Sajj - honestly, just all great. Great flavors, with warm and soft pita bread. I was dipping everything in the garlic sauce. While we waited for our food, we had a chance to talk to the owner. Nice guy, down to earth, and friendly. From what we understood, this is one kitchen with a staff trained to put together the meals. Definitely a great concept, and hopefully there's a chance for some rotating menus from other restaurants at some point. There's limited outdoor seating, but perhaps things may change as do the covid guidelines. read more

Love the concept of local kitchens bringing together different cuisines under one roof and so glad I finally got to try it!!! I ordered through their online app and it took about 20 mins for my order to be completed, but the app was easy to use and they were on time! Here's my review of each dish: Chicken shawarma wrap - my least favorite item. This was from Sajj. I wouldn't order this again to be honest since it was ready oily and the chicken was not that flavorful. It was pretty big though. Plantain and black bean taco - really delicious and flavorful! I've never had this type of taco but it was executed really well, full of flavor and very filling. It was from the Little Chihuahua. Soba noodles - this was a side dish from Glaze and also really good!!! The sauce was flavorful but not heavy! Overall loved the variety and the ease of ordering. Parking in the area is a bit difficult as it is mainly street parking or you'll need to park across the street but people don't stop at the cross walks. Definitely going to try out the other places and it is worth the price for the quality and quantity of the unique dishes! read more

Visited multiple times, and the employees are always great! There's some seating indoors and outdoors, and can get busy at times. The burgers are tasty, but I wouldn't recommend getting their boba. The drinks themselves are good, but the boba is consistently hard and unpleasant. During my most recent visit, I ended up waiting over an hour for my order. After waiting for ~20 minutes, I hesitantly asked about my order's progress, and the woman behind the counter reassured me, saying it'd be out soon. This happened three times, and we kept apologizing to one another. Eventually when I got my order, a man who I'm assuming was the manager/owner insisted that I get a cookie or boba drink as compensation. read more

GENERAL COMMENTS: Came here on a Monday night and was really amazed by the variety of options available. Not only is there quite a spectrum of cultural diversity among the menus, but there are also several vegetarian and vegan options (way to go!). This place is the perfect to go with friends or a big group, as there is truly something for everyone. FOOD 10/10: We got Butter Paneer from Curry On Up. The price was fair ($13) and the flavor was outstanding. I was even able to swap out rice for cauliflower "rice", so that was a great option that I was not expecting. Everything tasted fresh and nothing was too spicy. ECO-FRIENDLY: I pleasantly surprised how the packages and the bag were all in paper (not plastic). Extra props for that. Also, no napkins were given (this is a plus since it is take-away and it saves paper). SERVICE: My order was ready on time and it was hot! OVERALL: Stellar food! We will be back! Yes read more

Placed an order online and it was ready in 10 min! Magic. The Sicilian Chicken from The Melt was just ok, I think it would have been better with some soup. I have half of it left for later and might make some soup. The Shanghai Chicken Lumpia was dynamite! I ate it so fast, my partner came to find only half of one left, which it would have been gone if he were 10 seconds late. Friendly service! I would totally order again. read more

What a cool concept!! Very helpful when eating with a large group of you picky eaters. No need to worry about splitting the check. Everyone can get what they are craving and check out. You would think with so many options there would be some chaos but I really enjoyed the efficiency and breeze of everything. Now, if you're indecisive like me, it's going to take you some time to review every single option. You can use the website for pickup like I did! I placed my order for pickup and i even got to schedule it 45 min later. I was between A few different cuisines. It was a close call but I ordered... Garlic shrimp taco from the little Chihuahua: so flavorful! It was kind of cold when I picked it up but wow so much potential! Good portion size. Has a little kick too. A little too much oil for me though. Fake chicken salad from proposition chicken: yummmyyy. Nothing fake about this deliciousness. Actually something I would order again! It's not really fake chicken lol just fried tofu. Pretty sure there is a way you can make this vegan. I think the dressing has dairy. Everything bagel from wise sons: had everything delicious on it! Nice garlic flavor. Made a mental note to get more than one next time! Upon arrival everything was clean and the food was well packaged. Employees were really nice to me. I appreciate the use of paper and not plastic containers. Prices were a little higher than surrounding options but I think I read somewhere that these are San Francisco based restaurants so that kinda makes sense. read more

I think it's great to have convenience when ordering food and you have people with different tastes. There were nine different eateries under one roof with a limited number of selections. There is currently a $10 off promotion for new customers. Online ordering was a breeze and you can select the time and day you want the food to be cooked. SAJJ's protein plate (Steak Shawarma) - I loved that it came with a whole bunch of different flavorful sauces. The pita puffy and was soft and tasted fresh. The salad dressing was tangy and delicious. I was just expecting a bit more protein portion for a protein plate. The steak was cut thicker and not as soft as I would like. Curry Up Now's Ghee Makhni Burrito - A pretty mild burrito with Indian flavorings. The chicken was cooked to a soft point and there was just the right amount of indian sauce. The butter chicken did not feel so heavy. The Little Chihuahua's Classic Taco - I ordered a plain beef asada. Although the meat was pretty soft, it had a weird gamy aftertaste. There was no flavor on this one. There is plenty of free street parking and a small lot behind the restaurant. read more

Love the idea of this place, basically a food court, but to go. Great variety of cuisine types including breakfast and dessert even! It's the perfect one stop shop for a group that can't agree on what they want or someone that wants a little bit of everything. I ended up getting senor sisig, which I had been wanting to try forever, and some Humphry Slocombe ice cream. The burrito from senor sisig was delicious! Only complaint was I paid extra for sour cream but it did not come with sour cream. And although it was really good, it was a bit dry and the sour cream would've made it perfect. I was sent a follow up email about my experience and I mentioned this issue when I filled it out, and within five minutes I received a response apologizing and a credit for my next order. Very professional of them, I was pleasantly surprised. The service was great, everyone working was really friendly! It was also very quick and ready exactly when it said it would be. I would definitely go back and try some of the other restaurants they offer. It was nice to get to try some places that I've wanted to eat at but are a little too far for me to go to eat at. read more

I had the wonderful opportunity from a Yelp Elite Event to try Local Kitchens and I think the ghost kitchen concept is super cool! It's definitely a great solution for indecisive friend groups who can't decide on where to eat. From Asian to Mexican cuisine, there's something for everyone. Ordering and parking was fast and easy. Location ------------- It's near De Anza College but on the side of the freeway that isn't as busy. There's a parking lot next to the building with ample spaces. The place itself was spacious and clean. Food ------- The selection at Local Kitchens was good. There are several cuisines to choose from, such as Mexican, Asian, American, etcetera. For this treat, I ordered some burritos from Senor Sisig: The Senor Sisig burrito with chicken ($12) and the Tosilog burrito ($12). I'm a huge fan of fusion food, so I was pretty excited to give these a try! Both burritos were quite hefty and more on the slim but longer side, which I personally like; it's easier to eat. Both burritos could use a little more meat, but were delicious! I think their rice, which is often an afterthought in burritos, was super tasty and held up well. Final comments ----------------------- I enjoyed the food, concept, and ease of pick-up so I'll definitely be coming back! Looking forward to trying new things. :) read more

Picked up dinner last night, thanks to a Yelp Elite event. Service at the counter was fast & good. I was hardly in the place for 1min, as my online order was ready to be picked up. Noticed a big screen on the wall showing the status of each person's order. Pretty cool. Food wise: I got the Falafel Wrap from Sajj, and the Salmon Teriyaki bowl. Falafel wrap was good - 5/5 it had a bit of everything, so it was colorful & gave a different taste for each bite. Wrap was not soggy, yay. Mint sauce that came with it was amazing - I only wish I had asked for extra, as one tiny packet of the mint sauce wasn't enough for the entire wrap. No complaints about the wrap! Salman Teriyaki Bowl - 3.5/5 The proportion of rice to fish: too much rice, too little fish. And husband said the salmon smelled/tasted a little old, but not like bad bad, you know. Otherwise all good. The website could have been better though, imo. It felt confusing and slow at times, especially when choosing the sides/fillings for the wrap. Overall, love that there are so many options in 1 place, like a mini food court. Good service too. Will return if in the area! read more

Thanks to Yelp Elite, I got to try out Local Kitchens! I ordered the Tikka Masala Burrito and Ghee Makhni Butter Bowl from CurryUp Now. The burrito was so filling and easy to eat and the bowl was just as delicious and flavorful. Love this concept where I can order from multiple restaurants and pick up at one location! It's pretty convenient when I'm craving food from one place and a drink from another, or when I am eating with friends who are craving different cuisines. read more

Fantastic choice to have a Yelp elite event here! Ordering online was easy and they even had digital tablets to place orders at the place-super techy. I was greeted literally right when I walked in the door and the inside of the place looked spotless and clean. Hopefully we can dine in soon as there is limited outdoor seating, but I took my order to go anyways! The food was absolutely filling and very delicious, I feel like there should be more local kitchens in the area, it's definitely a hub for great food selection.

Thanks to @yelpbayarea we got to try this place as part of a Yelp Elite Event!! Location: its conveniently located on a wide road with ample parallel parking on the street right outside and also many spots on the left of the 4-store complex. Super easy to get there. First impression: the door was open and we were greeted by a friendly staff member who asked for our name on the order. Our order was already ready so we spent exactly 2 mins inside the store. I wish they start curbside pickups too. Hygiene: The place was superbly clean and the kitchen area was visible from upfront where the staff was busy cranking orders and wore gloves and mask and caps. Definitely very hygienic and that is one think u want to know about during these covid times. Ordering: ordering online was a breeze and it gave me the time to scan thru the menus of 9 different restaurants and take my time to customize and choose what i would like. They are giving out a first time order promo $10 off to everyone so go ahead and check it out! So many choices: Loved the fact that we can sit at home and choose from the menu of different restaurants and just go and pick up easily from one location. Food: in $29 we got: - 1 senor chicken "hella splicy" sisig burrito - 4/5 - 1 shrimp burrito with black beans from TLC - 3.5/5 Suggestions for improving online ordering: The online menu does default senor to tofu @10.45 U need to pay extra for any meats u would like instead. There was no option to add extra toppings to your burrito. Maybe they should fix that in the online system. Also, You cant specify a spice level for shrimp burrito :( online. Review on food: The quality of shrimp was top class and loved the flavorful sauces in it. Both burritos were perfectly packed in a double foil wrap to keep them warm :) there were no sauces on the side - i wish there was ! The rice in Senor had a different kick to it and i would say "hella spicy" was not spicy for me ( i am indian and i like thai 8/10 spicy). It was just ok on the spice level. I will try hella hella spicy (extra charge) next time! Conclusion: This place is a great option if u wish to order from multiple places and pick up once and/or if u have a group of picky eaters or meeting folks who dont like the same restaurant. Its so convenient to drive within SJ and get SF flavors sitting at home! Must try. read more

We loved the concept of this place! Ordering online was very simple and we liked that we could pick a day and time for pick up. The one really cool thing about this place is that there are so many options to choose from. It makes it easy when your party all want different types of food. I ordered the California burrito from Señor Sisig which was very tasty. The ingredients were fresh, and it was just the right portion size for me. My fiancé picked the teriyaki chicken meal from Glaze, which he also enjoyed. Overall, everything was very fresh. Our order was ready for us right on time. We also picked up a pint of ice cream from Humphry Slocombe - the peanut butter fudge ripple flavor. The ice cream was nice frozen upon pickup and stayed so during our 20 minute drive home! The experience was good and the food was great, however, nothing was super noteworthy. We would love to come back and try other options! read more
