Please get them some help!! We had to go in dining room to find a waiter to get us seated—no one at front! Waiter was very knowledgeable about gluten free menu but clearly overwhelmed trying to cover multiple jobs! Restroom had trash spilling over can and badly needed attention but the poor wait staff could barely keep up with dining room! Not their fault!! Management needs to get them some help!

Best Ethiopian food we’ve had in the Bay Area. 100% teff injera only (and damn good too, not at all brittle or thin like it can be some places), so good for the gluten free among us.

Wow-Gojo Ethiopian Delivers-the best!!.. I had/needed Vegan (and gluten free) food and was recommended the Combo Injeera and picked, cooked, and pickled lil’ dishes assortment. The server Moumoud (pardon, close?!!) was a pleasant experience himself in providing the choices and being a beacon of gentle, prompt, attentive, and kindly, jovial service. I felt like I was being served by family-in his mentioning of his cherished veggie dishes for me-that were… simply AMAZING..and were light, sweet, slightly spicy, and cooling as well. And…the injeeera here-may be the best injeera in NorCal-serious. Lightest, and most firm-absolutely teff-and delicious w/all the assortment! You can also tell of the humble pride of Ethiopia here-in the decor, both western and Ethiopian. I imagine they have both lots of Ethiopians and westerners in groups on a solid dining evening! I didn’t try the meat dishes-they looked delectable-aside of my preference-in that they were very special dishes-go to this place w/a few friends or family who is daring or likes Ethiopian-it’s an awesome group experience in a place like this-in sharing!! You’ll love the variety of your friend’s, neighbor’s, or mom in law! If you are in San Jose or on your way to/from Santa Cruz-definitely stop by for a small bite or a solid meal! What an early dinner/afternoon delight! And if you see Moumoud-you’ll know-because he has a glowing smile for his food! Ask him about a recommendation for you!!

Got the Chicken al Formaggio (Chicken Parm) and they were able to substitute gluten free pasta as the side. Service was fast and attentive, with refill on my soda. +1* for excellent smooth jazz being played for music. A bit pricey, so maybe good for business lunch/sharing with people (they do charge for split plates though). Generally recommend if you're looking for a nicer american-italian joint with good food and atmosphere. Outside seating looked nice too!

Impressive they accommodated my sister's gluten allergy. She told them of her allergy and they brought her own GF soy sauce packets. I have never been to a restaurant that has done that before. The service was great, we kept on ordering more and more rounds since the food was so delicious, I walked in hungry and certainly left the place absolutely stuffed. My table's favorite item was the kale. Something about it was just cooked and flavored so perfectly. I also highly recommend you try the chocolate dessert bun. It was very entertaining. The only thing is the line to get in there is super long. The waitlist system is a little flawed if booking for a group larger than 4 people, luckily they were able to switch our reservation upon arrival

The Best In San Jose

YES!!!!! MOD Pizza is hands-down one of the best places for a customizable and satisfying meal! My family and I love coming here because it truly feels like a place where everyone gets what they want, and the options make it perfect for those looking for healthier choices or something indulgent. The “build-your-own-pizza” concept is fantastic. Everyone in my family gets to choose their toppings, sauces, and crust preferences, which makes dining out a fun and personalized experience. They offer unlimited toppings for the same price, which is rare to find. Whether you’re looking for a veggie-packed pizza, like I often do, or something meaty and cheesy, there’s something for everyone. The quality of ingredients is fresh, and I appreciate the variety of options, including gluten-free and cauliflower crusts for those with dietary restrictions. The staff is always friendly and helpful, ensuring your pizza is made just the way you like it. The restaurant atmosphere is casual and welcoming, with a modern, open design that makes you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in. For families or anyone wanting a quick, healthy, and affordable meal, MOD Pizza is an absolute win. Highly recommend giving it a try—you won’t be disappointed!

We had a large party in the back room at Palermo's last weekend and we couldn't have asked for a better experience!! The food was delicious and the service was AMAZING. We felt very taken care of the entire time. The staff were all very attentive, kind & helpful. They have hired some of the best! They helped us set up a projector so we could show a slideshow during our event and that went smoothly. They set up the tables quickly and were constantly checking on us to make sure we had everything we needed and that the orders were accurate. The event planner Diane was also very easy to work with and helpful. They also had many food options for all of our party's dietary restrictions (gluten free, vegetarian). All in all 10/10 experience and we can't wait to be back. Thank you all!

We have been coming here for 20+ years (previous location off stevens creek / lawrence in santa clara) and the food has been consistently good. Good mix of vegetarian items along with gluten free options. Blue mango fried rice highly recommended. Decent sushi selection and some unique vegetarian rolls also.

The customer service was amazing. The person that took my order was super friendly and accommodating for my gluten allergy.
