Restaurants near San Jose Ave / Glen Park Station

Always the best service in town. From the hostess to bartender to our server, everyone has our unique experiences in mind. In the hospitality world we talk a lot about “surprise and delight” moments for guests, of varying size depending on the group, occasion, etc, and foreign cinema always gets them JUUUST right. Not to mention the food is always superb

Food was great, portions was bigger than I remember especially the King Henry VIII. Great value!

Elena’s has never let me down! Always friendly, always a good time! The calamari frito is a MUST order! It’s tender, light yet crispy all at the same time. All the drinks are top notch but my favorite is the mezcal drink with passionfruit - such a perfect pairing!

We had not been back to La Ciccia since the ownership change. Our waiter was excellent. Food was good but my favorite pasta dish that I was so looking forward to ( spaghetti with bottarga) was really oversauced, too much butter, and not as amazing as it used to be! The calamari was excellent, as was the wine selection. The front of house greeting was not as warm as with the previous ownership , although maybe it was because we arrived right as the restaurant was opening for the evening.

The food is excellent. It is as close to what I remember real Italian food in Italy being like as I've ever found outside Italy. Fresh ingredients, healthy but still wonderful taste. The service is excellent.
