Saúl Bistro - San Jose

Healthy food choices that's good for our microbiomes.

Terrible experience here! They are definitely understaffed and under poor manangement. We arrived on a Sunday in the mid morning. The place was busy but there were many tables available. Waiters passed us by many times before we were even acknowledged and then finally seated. For some reason we were refused an amaretto/cafe type cocktail, yet mimosas were allowed nothing legal here just off control issues. We ordered the croc monsier and specialty toasts, both which promised crunchy toasted bread and both plates came with our bread not toasted. The croc monsier was soggy and disgusting. When we complained to management he told us our bread was toasted, which it obviously was not. Terrible food and terrible experience overall. Stay away!

We waited over an hour for our food. The food was pretty good, but not great. We were rather disappointed.

Server was the best, he was beyond helpful and set the bar for the rest of our trip. Food was fine/good. Decor is fun and playful. It overall was a great experience.

Great decor and dining environment but the food wasn’t very good. It was very bland and not as tasty. Expected much more. They do have a house white wine for a very affordable price (about $16) — probably the only thing we enjoyed. Picture is of the entrance to the indoor sitting area.
