For more than 20 years, this place has offered an elegant setting in which to enjoy world-class French cuisine. Try the veal, duck, or ostrich(!) dishes and sample from the extensive wine list, which has prices ranging from $25 to $205. The setting is gorgeous and the dishes are painstakingly well crafted. The restaurant is only a 10-minute drive from downtown San Jose and the museums. It offers a tasting menu, if you happen to be in an adventurous or undecided mood.
