Reviews

We went to Petiscos "Downtown" in San Jose for dinner with four adults on a Sunday night.
The place is pretty, the food is good, and the people working there are friendly.
Everything was good, not amazing but not bad either, just okay.
The best things we ate were the house salad and the beans and olives to start with.
The meatballs and grilled shrimps were good too.
The drinks we had were good too.
It's a nice spot to eat, and I'd say it's about a 4 out of 5.

Made reservations here for a dinner out with my husband and brother.
The area seemed very busy that day and we couldn't find parking anywhere.
We ended up doing paid parking right across from there which was a great alternate option. Once we arrived at the restaurant we got seated right away.
Our server came and asked us for drinks and we tried some awesome drinks.
We also ordered some food right away the shrimp, the seafood paella and couple more dishes.
Food tasted decently well but I think their could be more addition to the flavors to make them stand out a bit.
The shrimp dish was really nice and I think it's worth a try

Thank you for choosing our restaurant for your dinner outing Meghna! We're glad you enjoyed our prompt seating and awesome drinks.
We appreciate your feedback regarding the flavors of the dishes and will consider adding more depth to enhance them.
We're delighted you liked the shrimp dish and hope to welcome you back to explore more of our offerings!

Small dishes taste great.
Beef tongue and pig’s ear salad are my fav.
Seafood rice is too salty and orange tart is way too sweet.
These two are what I will not recommend.
