If you like everything that makes an attraction an attraction then put this place on your list to visit. Lots of activities, people wandering around just to be seen, too expensive places to spend your time and money at, and crowds of people swirling around looking at the crowds of people swirling around. This is a great Sunday afternoon stroll... More

Went here for the first time with hubby & lil girl and thoroughly enjoyed walking around. They have a wide variety of restaurants with outdoor seating which is good if you want to people watch. They have a small play area for kids so you can eat while the kids are playing, they even have a big chess which is... More

The worst part of Santana Row is the parking. Almost anywhere you want to go in Santana Row means traffic jams and long walks from parking. The variety of expensive shops and restaurants is very good. The concept of having residences on the top floors of business is a great ideal for those who live there. They do not need... More

Santana row offers so many choices for food, drink and shopping from low to high end it is a destination not to be missed. Go for dinner to wind down or to entertain a client. Go a few drinks to celebrate. Go to pick up a special gift that special someone before heading home. But you must go!

Outdoor shopping area containing many average to fairly good restaurants and several stores crammed into a tight area. Accross from large indoor mall off Steven's Creek Blvd. It is a nice people watching site in San Jose near Winchester Mystery House.

I had a couple of hours to kill in between hockey games in San Jose and I was guided to stop here. It is a neat area - open shopping. Good stores and great little restaurants. It filled my time and the decorations for the holidays - albeit way early if you ask me - they were nice and tastefully... More

I found Santana Row in San Jose, CA to have great shopping and restaurants. It reminded me a little of NYC. The shops were brand specific and offered great boutique style shopping. The restaurants, although some were chains, seemed to be local to the area. Great people watching. A wonderful spot to just stroll and window shop.

I was visiting my brother a few weeks ago who lives in Santana Row. Great food, shopping and good looking people. Definitely a see and be seen area. I like the shopping ranges from affordable to stores like H&M to high end stores like Gucci. No matter the size of your wallet you will like this area.

Santa Row in San Jose has some decent chain restaurants, which tend to be okay, but are priced higher than they should be. The shopping is sometimes interesting. It all seems so contrived and forced, but even so, it can make for a pleasant outing.
