    I am never one to write a bad review but i feel like it’s necessary to share our horrible experience here. I wanted this to be a special dinner for my girlfriend’s birthday accompanied by the beautiful view. Though it was quickly ruined by a condescending male server who was quick to judge. We ordered a 16oz prime rib to split followed by an appetizer due to limited options that did not seem appealing. The server goes “ that’s it?” In the rudest tone. I’m assuming a bigger bill means bigger tip because we were treated completely different after. The attitude in his words speaks loudly. Additionally, our prime rib was not cooked to preference. Couldn’t even consult to the server as we felt uncomfortable being there.

    We celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary. We haven’t been to the Grand View since the prior ownership. We didn’t fully know what to expect since we used to come regularly under the old owners. We were so happy to see that everything was upgraded without changing too much where we could look around and talk about the areas we’ve sat and the memories connected to this restaurant. We loved the upgrades made to patio too as it was a great experience getting to eat out on the patio and yet feel like we were the only ones there. The staff was so pleasant and attentive making every wish a reality! Thank you Grand View for making this celebration so amazing!!! We will be back soon!!

    Let me first start off by saying the service was amazing, our waiter was knowledgeable about everything and gave us great recommendations. The ambience was quiet and relaxing. My girlfriend had ordered a steak and I had ordered their short rib ravioli dish. My girlfriend's steak was amazing, I definitely regretted my choice after tasting my dish and it was just sort of bland and on top of that I feel like it was sitting at the ready window for a while because by the time i got it it was pretty lukewarm. Definitely not expecting it to be piping hot like it just came out of a microwave but it just wasn't nearly where I felt like it should be. We ordered the smashed potatoes and broccolini as our sides and again the broccolini came out and it was real cold. Like it was definitely sitting out for a little bit before we got it. We ordered the molten lava cake as our dessert and I was also disappointed as it was not warm at all. It was like they forgot that step or something. Overall it was 3/5 stars just disappointed as i felt like temperature of the food was just way below what it should be. I am assuming because it took a decent amount of time to get everything sent to us.

    My mom felt so special and honored for her birthday. She comments that it will be a lifetime memory. All of the little touches helped make our experience extra special. Thank you Grand View!

    This restaurant is clearly not fine dining. The silverware was warped. The tables were wobbly. Food was bland. The view is the sell. I won't be back.

    This is our “go to” spot for special occasions and we are here regularly - the food is excellent and the service from max is superb- and then there is the spectacular view - the only downside is navigating San Jose traffic but it’s worth it!
