Alyaa Taleb★★★★★We had such a lovely brunch experience at Gardenia. We arrived around 9 AM before the brunch menu opened, but enjoyed coffee while exploring the beautiful space until 9:30. The restaurant is absolutely gorgeous with a lush open concept, stylish decor, cozy seating areas, spotless bathrooms, and an incredible outdoor patio with a fountain our toddler loved. We kept our order simple for the first visit and were very impressed. The avocado toast was excellent, especially the pickled onions and fresh herbs that elevated the flavors. The French dip was flavorful with tender meat and delicious fries. Their kids menu was also great for our toddler. We also tried the seasonal Lila latte both hot and iced, and both were fantastic. Not overly sweet and you could really taste the ube and espresso. The only small downside was that the hot latte came without a plate underneath the cup, and although we asked for one, we never received it. Overall though, the service was still very good. The team was welcoming, kind, and helpful with the menu. Beautiful atmosphere, delicious food, family friendly, and a perfect location in downtown Los Gatos. Definitely looking forward to coming back.

Terie Scerbo★★☆☆☆Overall, not a good experience. We will not be going back. Issues included lackluster/unenthusiastic service (all parts of the service) and food preparation. When we arrived, I mentioned that I need to avoid sun, and when we were seated in the main indoor dining room, we were seated next to the window with shades partially open, with sun on my back. My husband ordered a hamburger, medium rare, and it was served well done, and the meat was crumbly, indicating the meat had been frozen, possibly more than once. The fries were not cooked well, likely with oil too cool for a good cooking, so the insides were a bit hard while the outside was so-so. I ordered an avocado toast, and the fried egg on top looked good - fried so that the yolk would be running onto the toast like a sauce, the way I like it - but then noticed that the egg whites were not fully cooked. I also ordered a hot tea, and it was served, well-brewed, and with nothing to put the tea bag onto. We had to use the saucer from my husband's espresso. The best part of the meal was a cocktail that was very nicely prepared and tasty. Overall, a very disappointing experience.

Kelly Crawford★★★★☆Happened by this lovely restaurant in an old victorian home in downtown Los Gatos on a sunny, cool Sunday morning. I chose to sit in the garden near a fire pit. It was quieter and more intimate than indoors which buzzes with groups chatting. It was close to noon so I ordered the roast beef sandwich french dip. The beef was quite tender and came with a tangy dijonnaise sauce on the side. Very satisfying and large. I took half home. My friend enjoyed the vegetarian omelet. Cappuccino was good and the service reasonably attentive and friendly. Prices were average for this area. Definitely worth a visit.
