- CChristinevipSan Francisco Bay Area •8 reviews4.0Dined todayThe remodel is lovely! The new menu took some adjustment, as the choices have been reduced, and some of the menu items are less familiar as entrées. My husband ordered the pozole, which was just okay, and small in portion size. I had the chicken enchilada combo with beans and rice. The plate was not at all pretty, and could have used some color from lettuce, tomato, and sour cream, just as a little garnish, but the enchilada was the best I have ever had. We also ordered chips that came with three different salsas. They are serving different salsas than they did before and only the green sauce was satisfying. One taste of the red salsa and we were done. The third dip was a sour cream mixture that was a little strange. Considering we had to pay seven dollars for chips and salsa, we wish that the salsa choices had been better .We ordered a classic margarita to go with our meal, which was unremarkable. Our server was delightful, though he was literally on the run as he was serving a large area. He surprised us by bringing us a complementary churro dessert for our anniversary. We were pleased with the total cost of our meal, and were not displeased with our overall experience. I would certainly recommend that the chefs find a way of making the entrées, more beautiful with splashes of color from little garnishes. It makes a difference!

- MMadhuSan Francisco Bay Area •3 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 16, 2024We initially booked a table for two, but two of our colleagues joined us later, making it a party of four. I must say, this place is phenomenal! We got there by 4:30, and the place was already quite crowded. This was my first time visiting, and I actually found out about Jaks through Forbes magazine. The ambiance was fantastic—not like your typical Indian restaurant. It was clean, simple, and very well done. Honestly, you wouldn’t even guess it was an Indian restaurant at first glance because the decor was so modern and upscale. They have a full bar, and we enjoyed a couple of cocktails, which were amazing! We also tried four sharable plates, and every single one was interesting and unique. The chef’s signature dishes, especially the sea bass, lamb shank, and lamb chops, were absolutely stunning. The flavors were so authentic, and everything was cooked to perfection. The staff was very attentive, which made the whole experience even better. I heard from one of my colleagues that the menu changes every six months, which is pretty exciting. I’m already looking forward to trying their lunch menu next time. Overall, it’s a great place for dining—whether for a casual meal or something special. This was a wonderful experience, and I’ll definitely be back soon!More infoJaks Authentic Indian & Modern VibePrice: Moderate• Indian• Santa Clara•4.1

We ordered a burger and a steak for the mains, the steak came out almost 30 mins after the burgerMore infoThe Lexington HousePrice: Very Expensive• Californian• Los Gatos•4.8
