We invite you to Dr. Funk where you, too, can escape.Dr. Funk's offers a relaxed vibe that transports you into a 19th Samoa tiki venue with signature cocktails that include our Mai Tai and the Dr. Funk. Our Signature dishes include our Dr. Funk Burger and Hawaiian Ribs.We are located near O'Flaherty's Irish Pub and the Old Spaghetti Factory in the heart of downtown San Jose.Trader Vic and Donn Beach invented the tiki motif at their California restaurants of the 1930s that would entice generations for nearly a century. Our eclectic décor, too, draws influence from both Trader Vic and Donn Beach. Both Trader Vic and Donn Beach sought not to create a fantasy world that was hinged on any single location; but rather one that encompassed the concept of escapism by incorporating and embracing elements from the Caribbean, to the South Pacific, China, Singapore and beyond!In doing so, they created a backdrop that was thrilling, fascinating and alluring—one we wish to pay homage to.

    Love this community-I’m a Santa Clara college student parent and always left with a good feeling post visits-it’s all the little experiences that add up-the waitstaff are first class here, hostesses were excellent too. Coming from a history in fine dining service both front facing and waitstaff-excellent place! Oh yeah-food is always fresh, arugula lemon salad a craving and the pizza as close as you will get to Italy-

    The food was very good. Spicy Pie as an appetizer was unique and delicious. I ordered the Thousand Layer Lasagne and it was very tasty. The Polenta was delicious as well. We arrived a little early for our 6:45 reservation and our host was going to set us up at a large table adjacent to the bar; we requested a table change and he accommodated our request and put us at a nice table in the dining room, which we really appreciated because it was quieter for our party of 5 as we celebrated a birthday. Highly recommend this restaurant.
