Nice place for a casual dinner....and a lot of gluten-free options!! Food service was on par and the food was fine. The bottle of wine was a STEAL! The food menu is a bit confusing and someone not familiar with this particular cuisine might have trouble picking the right dish. I expected more kick/flavor but most people would probably prefer it the way its prepared. Overall, considering price/service/quality, it's definitely a place I'd recommend to try out. I'll be back!😎👍

I highly recommend the food and service from Pizza My Heart on Blossom Hill Road in San Jose. The food was delicious and the service was above and beyond. I do not, however, recommend using the on-line order form. The online order form is controlled by a third-party called ezCater. EzCater company sent our large order for a party to a location that was NOT the closest to our event. When we went in the restaurant to ask a couple of minor questions, we discovered that they didn’t have a record of our order. It was because ezCater sent the order to the wrong restaurant. When I asked ezCater to redirect the order to the restaurant that was close to our event, they did so but they left out the gluten free pizzas. The manager at Pizza My Heart Blossom Hill worked hard to make it right and expedited the gluten free pizzas. We felt he went above and beyond. I will absolutely order from Pizza My Heart again, but I’ll never use the ezCater online order form again. By the way nobody at the party even noticed that the gluten free pizzas were delivered later than the rest of the food. The food was really good, the salads were fantastic, as was the pizza and chicken wings and bread sticks. Way to go Pizza My Heart for making it right so quickly.

First time, asked if they had gluten free granola, they advised they do. When I received bowl it has cereal on it, a mix of rice krispies and Corn puffs...it may be gluten free but not its not granola. The base of bliss bowl was good but removed much of it due to cereal in bowl. Never come across this before.

I usually go to the other location, but this one didn’t disappoint! Always love a good swirl and power bowl, since all of the bowls are gluten free. I appreciate the allergy menu on their website so I can easily make choices without asking too many questions. Sangria swirl is my favorite!

Our waitress was so nice and helpful. Portions are huge. The sushi itself wasn’t so special but very tasty. I love the miso soup. Edamame is nothing special. Our wait time was so short as well. Their menu had stuff marked as gluten-free which is a plus!

Fresh delicious seafood at reasonable prices. The fish and chips are my family's favorite, while I go for the grilled giant shrimp (prawns) platter or the keto shrimp bowl out of the gluten free items that I have tried so far. I look forward to further exploring their gluten free menu options! I have celiac and have had no issues with eating here.

It's fast, flavorful and filling! We didn't find any lines at around 3pm but the parking lot in that strip mall can get full fast. I got a Large bowl which is $1.5 more than the Regular and that includes an extra serving (4 scoops) of fish. The salmon was delicious, the octopus - quite tender, the spicy tuna and yellow tail were OK. The brown rice: intensely nutty and still warm and the rest of the ingredients ("everything") super duper fresh. Whatever you choose, do not fear the "Spice"; you can downgrade everything as follows: "mild" = almost not spicy at all, medium = mild, spicy = medium. And don't forget: if you're on a non-gluten diet, you can substitute the rice with fresh green salad - the bowl will be a wider plate instead of a bowl. Ice cream (strawberry and Nutella) was only OK; a bit heavy handed with the artificial flavoring and sugar for me but a welcome distraction for my taste buds after all that fish. If I could, I would eat this every day.

A wonderful gem in south San Jose. The food was delicious and the owners were friendly and accommodating to our large party. We had some vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free guests in our party and they made something special for each. Note that we let them know several days in advance and they were spot on with our requests. Thank you Bistro Tupaz for everything.

If you’re gluten free, ask for no sauce. Even the garlic butter has gluten in it, which shocked me. The food is still good without any sauce, but I chose veggies instead of rice. Noodles are not gluten free ofc

They're so nice here. I ordered a 10 inch gluten free pepperoni pizza. The pepperoni is 100% beef. I ordered the Godzilla pepperoni pizza for my daughter and her cousins. I started going to Blondies in 2003 in Berkeley. They used to have lunch specials. I'm their #1 fan. I'm so glad they have this one in Oakridge mall now.

If you have a gluten alergy and want a burger this is the place to go. They have amazing burgers gluten or not and almost perfect service but my only issue is that if you want to dine in you will get your food in 30 mins compared to the drive way where you get your food in 5 - 10 depending on the line. Inside is very clean and just cool looking, I would recomend to eat inside if it did bo

Went there ordered 2 gluten free sandwiches and one on regular white, paid. They came over and said gluten free bread was out and refunded 2.00 and proceeded to put the contents of one of the sandwiches in a bowl and other sandwich had to go on regular white. It was the worst "salad" or sandwich ever. Very sad looking. The other 2 sandwiches came dripping in grease, it was so bad we boxed it to bring home for the animals. $65 bucks for nothing.
