If you are looking for a good local breakfast this is a 5 Star spot. It's not fancy. It is some basic breakfast goodness. Service was also spot on and portions were healthy. read more

This is an older place. The servers were very gracious. The food was just okay. The atmosphere needs updating. Tried it because many have mentioned it but likely will not go back. read more

Our family of six stopped in for lunch. Our server, Lulu was on top of it! She is always so kind and gracious whenever we go in. The food is always delicious and the entire staff is always very friendly. This is always our go to place when we're in town to eat. read more

Food was really good, arrived fast and exactly how it was ordered. Was well attended and taken care of by server Lulu. 10/10

The food got cold rather fast. I ordered the calamari steak. It was breaded and fried. It was sort of odd being called sweetie. I did not care for it at all read more

Food was good, I got the salmon and my mom got a steak which was HUGE worth it for the price. Our server was very quick to ask for any refills or if we needed anything. Cute little restaurant, read more

For what it is and how long it's been there it's proved itself. I've been there over fifteen times and overall the service is good and so is the food. I've lived in this county since 1968 and so many long time restaurants have gone out of business. It's not spectacular, but it's very consistent and far from crappie considering a fair amount of restaurants in Gilroy. read more

9:30 closing apparently means 8:45 kitchen closed and your waitress will be pushy at first and distracted for the rest of your meal. Food was still great. But couldn't even get a refill on my beverage. It was the worst experience I've had at this resturaunt after over 25 years of patronage....I will not be back for awhile, and if I see that server still employed I will walk out. read more

This review is long in coming. My wife and me have been coming to The Longhouse for close to 8 years now, and it has never disappointed. A big reason for that, is the people that work there. If you have been more than once to Longhouse, you will hear Lulu's voice greeting everyone that comes in, and if you know her will get a great big hug (if you're lucky). She's also an exceptional waitress... so much so, she's always busy, and is always asked for with clientele (like us) that have been coming in for years. Lulu always works with the customer to accommodate your dietary needs (within their menu), and always has a smile on her face, and has become a good friend over the years. If Lulu's not available, Lucy is also fantastic... actually everybody there is great! When it comes to the food, you cannot go wrong here. Their breakfasts are exceptional and abundant, with special omelet and breakfast entrees during the week and weekends. You can't beat the lunches either... the burgers are crazy good, along with the other sandwiches and salads (don't forget the garlic fries). The salads are awesome... FRESH! We've never had a bad salad here... even their side salads are solid. Danny Maroudas (owner) has done a fantastic job with the kitchen. The kitchen staff uses a deft hand when preparing seafood... especially the salmon. I would put their salmon up against other top-shelf places in the valley. Same thing with the rest of the dinner items; ribs, pasta, steaks... the kitchen just gets it done well. If you are looking for a "trendy Silicon Valley" dining spot, keep driving. If you want great food, without a lot of hype, this is the place to come. If you come on the weekends, be prepared to wait a little bit, this is a big family place, and it's not unusual to see multiple parties of 15 or more for Saturday or Sunday for breakfast or brunch. They have a full bar, and the drinks are like the food... really good, and the brunches have a great array of different Mimosas and solid Bloody Marys to sure up the brunch crowd. The bar gets busy during football season too, with entertainment in the summer on weekends. If you're in Gilroy and are looking for a place to grab a great meal, and a nice time... Longhouse is the place to be. It's worth the drive from Campbell to come for lunch. read more

Old building with a farmhouse or barn look on the outside, with lots of vines. Inside a diner with a down home feel, with trophy case and longhorn horns on the wall. I tried the Chef's Special burger . This is on a roll with bacon and avocado spread and red onions, and it comes with fries. The roll had a good fresh flavor and didn't fall apart. The burger was well done with good seasoning on it, and the bacon was crispy and in a decent amount. Avocado was a good addition to the burger. Fries were somewhat crisp and not overly salty. Ketchup, mustard and hot sauce are on the table. The service is friendly. read more

The hashbrowns were crunchy outside, mushy and a little thick in the middle. They should've pressed them harder on the grill. The over easy eggs were underdone for my taste, the whites were still oozing liquid and jellylike near the yolk. Eggs were tender to the point of seeming almost poached. The garlic tri tip tasted a little liver-y -- maybe that cut always tastes like that, I don't eat it often enough to know. I don't remember the last tri-tip I got from here tasting like that. And the garlic tri-tip is exactly that: tri-tip with garlic smeared on top, no other seasoning. It was a fairly lackluster meal, overall. Wait staff are extemely efficient and attentive! read more

This is a review of the bar called the beehive. Nice little bar, it has a pool table and 50 cents a game is a great price. Lots of cues, there's plenty of chalk for cues and hands. They have great deals on drinks and food. I ordered a garlic steak burger with fries for $9.99. I expected a $10 cheap steak sandwich, what I got surprised me in a very positive way. The steak was cooked exactly as I ordered it, medium, it was not tough, it was quite easy to eat, didn't need a knife or tyrannosaur teeth to gnaw it apart. The best part is the steak was actually thick, I would estimate about 1/2 in thick. For a $10 steak sandwich that's very generous. The seasoning was great as well. The bartender is friendly and refilled my soda at least 5 times, I'm a non-alcoholic drinker. No drama, friendly patrons and a nice looking woman that likes to play music on the jukebox and dance. I went to visit a friend I don't see often. I'm very happy overall with the experience and hopefully will be returning more frequently. It's just a little far for me. Highly recommend. read more

Price is good but food is even better! And staff are so kind! When I have dinner in Gilroy, I just go there without hesitating. Best place in Gilroy! read more

Had an early dinner with my wife after running errands all day, very cozy setting and great staff. We were sat promptly and the waitress was super friendly. My wife had the steak Kabobs and they were cooked great. I went with the steak and prawns which did not disappoint. The fresh bread they brought out was also a highlight. Will definitely be back with the kids for their breakfast offerings. read more

I came with my dad to get breakfast before I headed off to my class. The server was nice at first but was kinda stern. I asked if I can get an item on the kids menu, she replied with "How old are you?, You can't get that, you're too old for that..". I explained to her saying , " I don't want a full sized meal right now, I have to go to class in 15 minutes". She kept telling me to get a full sized meal. I was like "okay , fine, I'll have a waffle with strawberries" "Oh honey our waffle maker doesn't work" "Strawberries are out of season" ( this was said during strawberry season) So i just ordered whatever I was able to find My dad ordered Mashed Potatoes with turkey. It was probably 2/10 , no effort whatsoever for the price. He had me try it out, the mashed potatoes were those cheap powdered ones you get in packets that you mix with water, the gravy was gross and the turkey was cheap . My food, pancakes , at most 5/10. I don't reccomend coming here and I wouldn't come here again , my server was not understanding, food was cheap in quality , high on price read more

Here's the thing. They have DELICIOUS FOOD. They also sometimes have GREAT service but it is not consistent. We tip 30-50% but that doesn't seem to matter. Terrible, kind, sweet service. 6 people waited on before we are served. It is almost like I want to ask what we did wrong ? Is this our issue? Why? Nothing but being polite, never sending a meal back, enduring incorrect meals CONSTANTLY. But we are ignored. Super not helpful for us coming back. No resolution in sight. Guess we will spend our $100+ dollars somewhere else. read more

We have been coming here since I was little. The food is outstanding and the service is wonderful! We are here at least once a week. All of their soups are exceptional and homemade! read more

we are local. eat here fairly often. we 1000 per cent applaud LuLu!!!! great waitress, person - probably wife and grandma and neighbor too. Food is o.k. Soup is almost always good, ribs, hamburgers -diner fare ok but we avoid the more complex dishes. The kitchen seems to be mostly cooks, not chefs, But you will not leave hungry. read more

Excellent food! Homey, old-time atmosphere with old time prices to match. We had the 2 pork chop special and the steak special. Everything was cooked to perfection and included soup or salad and desert for only $18.99! We had two glasses of a nice Sauvignon Blanc and the total bill was less than $60. read more

Food was good. We got really great service. I recommend. Homemade bread was amazing. We would go back for sure.

The food was fresh, fast and delicious! Nothing fancy; just good food and plenty of it. Portions are generous and prices are ultra-reasonable. Waitstaff are friendly and efficient. We would definitely return to Longhouse. The ambiance is classic diner. Most of the seating is at booths which give the place a cozy feel. read more

Old school food. I brought my Dad and he loved it. Great breakfast. Loved their pork chops!

Amazing ribeye steak. Their food is consistently good for breakfast or dinner. This is a great place.

Today we dined in and had the garlic tri-tip and eggs. The tri-tip was very tender like it should be. Service pretended not to understand. I did not like that ambience need some help. That's my honest opinion. Try it out for good food always read more

Awesome breakfast fast Got the corned beef and it was perfect Could have more toast selection( sour dough or wheat). Wife got eggs and sausage Good size portion read more

We love the breakfasts ...the place is always busy ...the menu is a real value ...however , the place could use a good cleaning though. It's getting pretty beat up and dirty..the floors are greasy and slippery, the booth cushions are sagging, and there is dust and old looking paint etc..clean it up and it's a 5 star. read more

The food was great and the employees there were fantastic and made sure you were well taken care of. The interior was also very nice and clean. read more

The food was actually really good. Lovely diner feel with an at home ambiance. The real gem here was our waitress Jamie. So sweet and terrific service. Plus they were fast and the food was seasoned (something so hard to find nowadays)! Great atmosphere, would definitely recommend to anyone coming to the area after a day of shopping. read more

We stayed in Gilroy last night for Red Barn VW Swapmeet. I tried to look around for local places nearby. I stumbled upon this place, I saw reviews that could go either way. I placed a phone order for pick up and the person who took my order was very polite. My order was: 1. Appetizer scampi and garlic bread- when I got there he gave me garlic bread and shrimo scampi pasta. He didn't apologize for the error but said it was my fault for not pointing it out that I wanted an appetizer. I didn't want to argue, so I just took it. Got back to the hotel and it was horrible. It tasted like microwavable food. My boyfriend ate that and he ended up in the toilet all night to the next morning. 2. I ordered ribeye steak extra cut- I ordered it medium. First cut was pink but ok. The more I kept cutting, and even cut the other end of it, it was straight raw. I stopped eating soon as I saw it. 3. Garlic fries- you're in gilroy you have to have garlic fries. I do not recommend. My honest opinion, stay away go to 152 Bbq next door. Had I known there was a BBQ place I would've gone there instead. The food was so horrible that I didn't bother taking pictures read more

After my son's golf tournament up at Eagle Ridge, we stopped in finally to try them out for dinner. We've passed by a few times but this time the timing was right. We both had a great meal involving steaks and they were delicious. The service staff was kind and attentive and quite friendly. Looks like the restaurant is also connected to the bar next doors so heading there for a drink seems like it would be nice too. Overall feel in restaurant is Just as a basic diner / Steak house. I'd definitely go again if we are in the area! read more

solid back in the day, has had a major falloff since. i remember coming here years ago and loving but it found the food to be mid at best in today's age. service was fine and the restaurant is pretty, but the food isn't there. read more

longhouse is an amazing restaurant. It doesn't have the best curb appeal, but the food is fantastic in the service cannot be beat. I ordered a steak. It was about the best, most perfectly cooked, and tenderest steak I have ever had. Others in my family ordered the chicken parmesan. Everyone could not have been happier. read more

Such a great find after a day at Gilroy Gardens. The food was fantastic and it's wonderful to be able to support a local family owned business. We will definitely come back! read more

If you like an old steakhouse/diner feel, this is a good place to get your fix. We were visiting Gilroy Gardens, and I asked one of the workers there for a good local place to eat and this place was recommended. At 7:00 pm on a Saturday, the place was full but we didn't wait long to be seated. However, once seated, the service was kind of slow (but friendly). They were definitely busy and running around... but it took awhile to get our order in and for our food to come out. We were seated in the back by the bar and eventually a really great band started playing. The lighting wasn't too bright, but I feel like it was enough to see that the tables could have been cleaned a little more. The live music was really entertaining as it wasn't too loud and the music was for everyone. The kids we had with us (and the adults) were all dancing! The food... I liked some of the stuff we got, and some missed the mark. I got the garlic salmon salad... it was not flavorful at all. Very plain. But my friend's cowboy pork chop was exceptional. My other friend's steak salad was okay... I would say better than my salad. The kids hamburger meal was huge. It would have definitely filled me up. And my boyfriend enjoyed his chicken parm. If I were in the gilroy area for breakfast, I would definitely come back to try the breakfast menu... specifically the garlic pork chops and eggs plate. read more

Awesome food and service. Nice local steakhouse vibe as you walk in. I got the garlic pork chop, which I highly recommend for ppl who love garlic. The pork chop itself is also delicious, crispy on the outside, flavorful and juicy inside. My friend got the USDA prime steak I think? It came with four eggs so portion was huge, great value! I usually don't comment on service but their service was excellent. Our server was very attentive. read more

I have restaurants that I've been going to for years that I tend to order the same thing even though they have an extensive menu of regular items and daily specials. Longhouse restaurants is one of those. Classic diner food at a reasonable price. My craving for their garlic pork chops and eggs breakfast is strong. I like mine served with their pancakes instead of toast. My other craving is for their ribeye steak dinner. I believe they hand cut all their meat. Their cooks have never failed to deliver me a generous portion of richly flavored, juicy, nicely charred meat with all the fixings. Apparently others feel the same way. Frequently the restaurant is busy no matter what day or time that I arrive. Service can be spotty though. There are times that I practically have to beg for a waiter/waitress to take our order or provide us with beverage refills. Fortunately the kitchen has never failed to deliver us tasty food. I hope the Longhouse Restaurant stays open forever. read more

Not as good as OD's kitchen - but a decent breakfast, inexpensive, non-chain, and family owned (bonus point for being open on New Year's day AND for offering Pepper Plant hot sauce) This is a local little joint, and they love their locals - I am not one, but was with one who they hugged. I got the eggs benedict. The ham was nice and thick, the eggs were perfect. The hollandaise was a little thick and the (ordered well done hash browns) were still pale. but hey - it was new years day - so I am cutting them some breaks. My man got some sort of scramble, and you can get pancakes instead of toast. They were tasty and the butter was plentiful. read more

Talk about an awesome diner hole in the wall! Last night, I took my workers to grab a bite to eat after a long day. We were looking in Gilroy and in San Jose for somewhere to eat, and everything was closed. Nothing was open.. I called into House restaurant, and the manager told me don't worry about it make your way over and we will let you guys order food to take with you. we were eternally grateful as we had not had dinner yet, and they made the exception to feed us. The staff was extremely friendly, and they had a lot of options on the menu.. I got the roasted turkey dinner, and it was very good. All of my workers were happy with their meals as well.. thank you very much for staying late for us and making sure we were able to eat before heading to our hotel. You guys are awesome! read more

The food was just good. The steaks we had were not the best quality but flavorful if I wanted a good steak, I probably wouldn't go there. Otherwise I might go back the waitress we had was awesome. She held up that place on her own. Thumbs up to her. read more
