Los gatos has beautiful views of the Santa Cruz Mountains and a lot of places to eat in a charming downtown area. If youre new to los gatos and hungry, id recommend starting on santa cruz avenue. You can easily walk up and down the street and find seemingly everything. I saw vietnamese food right next to a sushi bar within a short walk from breweries, bakeries and bistros. The locals confirm there are plenty of choices. Oh my gosh. A variety. You know, it just depends on what they feel like. Theres a really good pizza place down the road. Mexican food. This is a great place for brunch. This is a great place for brunch. Its the los gatos cafe, just watching the kitchen, i felt as if id gone to short order cook heaven as the dishes kept coming out of the window. Everything on their menu is actually amazing. Weve been coming here for 14 years. I would say choose one of the specials from the board and grab a table outside. Although the place welcomes turrets, we saw mostly locals on the day i visited, and theres a reason for that. The food is very consistent, amazing staff. The service is very good. I just wish there would be open longer so we can get dinner too. From here. Next, ive headed down the street to Willow Street pizza again. The los gatos weather is reliably good, so i saw most people sitting outside inside a wood fired oven is the key to making the pizzas. The pizza smells delicious. I know. You better get one. I will. I will. Trust me. Ive eaten my way through this place before. The key here is fresh local ingredients. So we make our dough inhouse. Its 100 double zero organic flour, and the pizzas are thin crust. Let me just go on record saying i like the pizza. Willow street calls the italian. So it took a portrait for social media of this beauty. Willow street also makes more than pizza. In case you want pasta, salads and burgers and of course, cocktails if youre so inclined. Next, i walked over to old town los gatos to visit a family owned restaurant thats been pleasing los gatos customers for more than 40 years. Steve myers grill house since we started in 79. Here in town locally, weve consistently strived to bring in the best quality and the best people for our staffing. Although steamers has many dishes on the menu, i got to try perhaps its most popular dish made personally for me by paul matlock, one of the owners. Its the made linguine with wild blue prawns, dungeness crab and mushrooms in a garlic lemon butter sauce. Just watching the way paul made this, i knew itd be a good dish and messy. Eating aside, i was right. So so right. Finally, theres a local bar right on santa cruz avenue called the black watch, which has been in the same spot since 1959, as it says, right on the sign. This place gets packed. But i came during a quiet time to have bartender Jennifer Anzalone make me the drink. The place is famous for the kamikaze drink carefully because these drinks arent weak. As we toasted together, jennifer told me this place is the ultimate local bar. Its like cheers. We know your drinks, your names, your friends, your family castaa reporting.
