Andale Restaurant
Andalaes is a sure bet when you are looking for fast good Mexican food. I like eating out on their patio. They have good prices and their food is always tasty.
PROS: fast, cheap
CONS:
Green Papaya
I was not overly impressed with Green Papaya. I found the food and atmosphere nice, but not worth the money. The location is good, but I would not go out of my way to return.
PROS: good location
CONS:
Olive Garden
Olive Garden always has long waits for what is fairly generic Italian food. The food is missing the mom and pop homemade quality. The unending breadsticks and salad are nice, but the quality is once again only average.
PROS: average italian food
CONS:
Orchard Supply Hardware
I like Orchard supply because it is not too big, and the employees are always very helpful. I've purchase many plants here. They are reasonably priced and Orchard has a return policy if the plants die.
PROS: helpful staff
CONS:
Roaring Camp Railroads
Roaring camp is more than a train ride. They have a nice setup at the "base camp". We went on the Easter ride. They had lots of arts and crafts at the base. At the end of the ride the kids got off for an Easter egg hunt high up in the mountains. It was a nice outing for everyone.
PROS: nice set up
CONS:
Almaden Cabana Club
This cabana club optimizes the awesome neighborhood it belongs to. The kids love hanging out here - there is always other kids to play with. The life guards are local teenagers. The Wed night bbqs are fun for the entire family.This is really a place were families meet and memories of childhood are made.
The facilies are nice, with lots of space.
PROS: great facilities, fun people
CONS:
Gilroy Gardens
Bonfante is a lovely amusement park. I like the fact that younger kids can ride lots of the rides. The adults appreciated all the gardens and interesting trees. It can get hot - so come prepared. You can even bring the kids swim suits for the water play section
PROS: good for young kids
CONS:
Garrod Farms Riding Stable
Garrod Farms has a really nice setup. The arenas and stables are in good condition. The vaulting team is really inspiring. I like the fact that they have a drop in class for new vaulters.
PROS: great facilties
CONS:
Hampton Place Stables
I was very pleased with the lessons my daughter took here. Nicole was very detail orientated. The stable really puts the horses first. They do horse rescue here. The borders and young riders really enjoyed being here, and really put forth a lot of effort in their horsemanship.
PROS: good lessons
CONS:
Stone Ridge Golf Course
My husband and I enjoyed playing this challenging course. They had nice carts, the greens were in good shape. The club house was nice. The prices reasonable.
PROS: good course
CONS:
