Fahrenheit Ultra Lounge

pale when compared to other downtown restaurants.
1. Completely lifeless waitress: no smile; no eye contact
2. Out of stock on beer: We had to take third choice. Bar manager WUWT?
3. Food took 37 min to reach table.
4. Pan seared scallops were small and mushy. What a rip.
5. Asparagus steak rolls were over-cooked and too salty for all four of us.
6. garlic mashed potatoes were nothing but mounds of flavorless starch.
Obviously, management and staff don't really care.

Now I've been to all of these other "Ultra Lounges" downtown, but this is the only one thats an actual ULTRA LOUNGE. Now I understand why they have won so many accolades. I went here a couple weeks ago, probably been here a dozen times now. Great door staff, very friendly (I recommend getting on the guestlist, no cover until 11). The vibe inside cant be compared to any other nightlife venue in San Jose, except maybe Koji, yet theres hardly enough people there for that to count. Great looking people, safe and comforting enviroment. You can actually lounge here or go mix it up near the bar or shake it on the dance floor. The bar staff is pretty amazing, they have a few bartenders who do flair, its a pretty awesome show to watch. Never been let down with the music either. Yet to try the food, but maybe I will one of these evenings. Nothing bad to say from my experiences.

This place is filled with douche-bags and wanna-bes. If you want to hang out with ugly people who think they're the finest, and who think this place is cool, then go there. Obviously they've never been any place better and are highly mistaken! They have extremely lame parties which they try to hype up, everybody that works there is a dork and basically...yeah. Not so much if you've drank wine in south of France.

I made dinner reservations there with a group of friends. We were greeted politely upon our arrival and brought to our table which was all ready for us. I was really impressed with the wide array of items on the menu. We started with a few appetizers. The fried calamari still stands out in my mind, it was very tasty and the textures were wonderful. The ahi tuna appetizer was even better! It was probably the best I have ever had. As far as entrees were concerned, everything we ordered was excellent. The garlic noodles are a must! The dishes all came out in a timely manner (Im the type of person who doesnt like to feel rushed when eating, nor do I like to wait to too long for my food, so I was very happy with the pace). The prices were more than reasonable, the service was great and the food was delicious.

After dinner, we stayed for a few drinks at the bar. The bartenders were great! All very friendly! We were having such a great time, we decided to stay and get a table. Luckily, they had one available. The table was in the upper lounge area which was great. It gave you the feeling that you were still apart of everything that was going on, but still felt a sense of privacy. The waitress was very polite and courteous. She really treated us like VIPs. She was accessible, which was a miracle given how busy it was. She even found time to make our drinks for us. Ive been to many clubs and lounges in San Jose, I must say that this was one of the best crowds I have ever seen. Everyone was having a great time. I would highly recommend Fahrenheit to anyone looking for a great place to eat or looking for a trendy place for a drink.

Some of my co-workers and I wanted to try something new so we headed over to Fahrenheit after seeing an ad in the Metro. I was quite surprised at the appearance inside, how modern the design was and the ambiance was terrific. We were greeted politely at the door, but rather than sit at a table we opted for the bar. Happy Hour prices were great with $3 specials on all beers, and they had a decent sized selection. The bartender was very courtesy and personable chatting off and on with us and other customers, seemed to be a lot of regulars. After glancing over a menu and being quiet impressed we decided to dine as well. While waiting for our food I glanced around, noticing a very mixed crowd, consisting mainly of young professionals like ourself.

I received my thai chicken breast and again was impressed. One of my co-workers got the garlic noodles w. chicken and enjoyed it also. They definetly take time in preparing their food.

Now I only give an 8, because I cannot comment on the nightlife, though if it is anything like what I experienced during happy hour, I will definetly try coming out sometime.
