The De La's Guide to San Jose
Food scene
Local foodie favorite: Orchard City Kitchen (OCK) is a San Jose staple for discerning and adventurous eaters. Their menu changes often and the chef does an amazing job creating ingredient driven dishes in a casual setting. Don’t miss the BBB (Biscuits, Bacon, Honey Butter), and the Korean Fried Chicken (KFC). Ask for an extra lime for the chicken and welcome to the best bite of your stay here.

Coffee! We are huge coffee snobs and have found the best cafe in San Jose to be in the downtown, SoFA neighborhood. Academic Coffee is the name of that shop. If you’re looking for something closer to home, you can try Voyager Coffee’s location near Santa Clara University. They do baked goods well.

Santana Row is our area's spot for higher-end eats, drinks, and shopping. The outdoor mall offers a movie theater as well. It's an excellent place for weekend people watching and to get a taste of the San Jose nightlife scene without having to visit the more lively and less luxurious downtown area.
