Reviews for ASA Restaurant - Los Altos in Los Gatos, CA
My spouse and I went here for a special occasion of having a break from parenting a toddler, who was spending quality time with... her uncle and grandparents at the time. We ordered a couple of cocktails, an appetizer, mains, and dessert. The drinks weregood and fairly priced. The jamon ibérico was good and served with fresh bread. My main was the Argentine steak, cooked mediumrare. The steak was delicious with it's chimichurri sauce. The sides of mashed potatoes and spinach were unfortunately quiteforgettable. I love mashed potatoes but I did not finish mine. My spouse's paella was tasty - the ride was perfectly cooked. Thedessert was good too - we had chocolate cake. It could have used a scoop of vanilla ice cream. We would have paid a few dollarsextra for it. Overall a positive experience. Service good, food good, price ok, parking ok, walkability not so good.

Every time we come to the South Bay we come to ASA. I can honestly say it is a high light of our trips. It's convenient to our... hotel, and an easy on, off freeway access. We usually make reservations or sit in the bar, couples are seated at a large table.The service from the hostess, to the bar staff, the wait staff, and the cleanliness staff and sometime management is the best Ihave experienced in this area. The menu is fluid, changes occur seasonally with drinks and dishes. The menu reflects farm totable values. The ingredients are fresh and tasty and sustainable. The wine list is extensive with a variety of offerings. Mixeddrinks taste great, love the blood orange cosmo. The appetizers are just so good????. The blue cheese salad is my very favoritehere , stinky cheese is my best cheese. Main courses are all good, the steak and pork chops are huge. The Duck was honestly myfavorite after the trout. I love all the dishes I have tried that fit my keto dietary needs; high protien, low fat, andcarbs. We always go back the ambiance, location, price, and service all add up to a great meal experience.

Quite a lovely place and enjoyable fusion Spanish cuisine. Ordered a papa pork chop but rather too overly cooked at certain part... of the chop. Too dry to my liking but near bone area was perfectly done. Great flavour with good seasoning. Ordered the pastaand is very unique in taste : name called angry pasta! The uniquely prepared paella and very appetising. The Columbia oyster aregood, love the size and brininess. You can’t miss Jamon when you come to Spanish place too! Good wine selection and enjoyabledinner! Read more
Exquisite. Fresh ingredients prepared perfectly and plated beautifully. Had a refreshing rosé and started the dinner with fresh... mozzarella and ricotta drizzled in olive oil and basil with a baguette on the side. Then we enjoyed croquettes in an amazingspicy tangy sauce. And topped it off with garlic shrimp. For the main course we had to go with the New York steak with organicbroccoli and roasted potatoes. The service we received was excellent and the dining experience was lovely. A must try in the bayarea!! Read more

Can't wait to go back! Read more
They've gotten busy after the award. 50% increase in patron on a Friday night. Maybe because of that the food quality has... suffered. The croquettes were overly salty, the ribs were very mediocre and the halibut was slightly overcooked which was servedover risotto that clearly should have been cooked longer. The highlight dish were the scallops, perfectly executed. Ambience andservice were excellent though. Just be ready to wait a little for ordering and food, which we didn't mind over a long lingeringdate Read more
Outstanding food and service. My first time will definitely be back. Delicious oysters to start with. Trout, Scallops and... Halibut were all perfectly cooked and so delicious. Wow. We had the chocolate bomb for dessert and it was delicious, not toosweet and great with the raspberry sauce. Nice outdoor seating as well. Read more
