Such a unique experience. From the decor to the menu. We keep it simple - salad, cheese fondue and of course, a dark chocolate extravaganza for desert. Service is efficient and friendly. I know people think of La Fondue as a special occasion place, but it really shouldn't be.

My wife and I had a terrific Valentine’s Day dinner and drinks. The prix-fixe menu options were excellent. The oysters, tuna tar-tar, strip steak were done perfectly. The bread pudding was possibly the best I’ve ever eaten. My wife’s halibut may have been a touch overdone—but just a touch and that’s only relative to everything else being absolutely perfect. The service was prompt, courteous and pro-active. The atmosphere and large table in a cozy nook was perfect, too. Highly recommend!

There definitely is a reason why this restaurant has withstood the test of time in upscale Saratoga. It might not be the fanciest place in town, nor is it the most expensive. However, the menu is simple yet offers a good selection of entrees. On a busy Valentine's night, entrees were served hot and timely, fresh warm rolls were plentiful, and service was excellent!

Incredible food and top-notch service! The staff was welcoming and attentive, making the experience even better. Paella Negra was a standout—flavorful and beautifully presented. The ambiance was cozy & elegant at the same time which is perfect for celebrations Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back!

Incredible as always! Hero Ranch is a small, intimate restaurant that consistently delivers some of the best food in the South Bay. The execution is always flawless, with a menu that keeps my favorites while regularly introducing exciting new dishes. Their ribeye is perfectly cooked, the octopus is tender and flavorful, and the beet salad is a refreshing standout. The ahi appetizer is a must-try, and their cocktails are expertly crafted. Whether you’re coming for a special night out or just craving exceptional food, Hero Ranch never disappoints!
