Affordable Dining Options at Santana Row
When you think of dining at Santana Row, you think of an elegant and pricey event. While it’s definitely fun to have a nice dinner every once in a while, the majority of us can’t afford the pricier restaurants every time we want to grab a bite to eat. But don’t automatically rule Santana Row out for those cool and casual meals! Here at the Row, we have lots of fun, great options for dining on a budget.
Chili’s is always a great bet if you are looking for affordable food! They have a large menu consisting mostly of “grilled American favorites” with food at practical prices. Even better, they now are featuring the return of their famous 2 for $20 deal! With this promotion, two people can share an appetizer and each order an entrée only for $20. They also have added food to their happy hour! If you go to Chili’s from 3pm-7pm, or from 9pm-11pm, take advantage of their $1 off beer and well liquor, plus discounted appetizers!
Another great sit down restaurant that is very reasonably priced is Pasta Pomodoro. The great thing about this eatery is that it is priced for all budgets. Whether you are looking for lower prices or you are not concerned what you spend, you can find what you are looking for at here. An Italian restaurant with a menu full of authentic flavors, you can’t miss the mark if you choose this for your next outing.
One of my personal favorite burger joints in San Jose is great for two reasons: it not only has amazing food, but it’s affordable, too! The Counter is a sit down burger spot at Santana Row that encourages you to build-your-own burger. With many different burgers, cheeses, toppings, sauces, and buns, everyone can get something they are craving at a good price. Also, if you stop by on a Monday for Monday Night Football, the draft beers are half price!
Longing for great Mexican food at a great price? Try Wahoo’s Fish Taco! The prices may amaze you, but don’t worry, your food will be not lacking in quality or taste. As you might have guessed, and as the name denotes, Wahoo’s is famous for their fish tacos. At only $2.50 a pop, these tacos are packed with unique flavor and are filling, too. But if you are wary of fish, this fun Hawaiian-inspired restaurant has lots of variety and something for everyone.
Pluto’s and The Counter share a similar idea about dining: you should have free reign and build it yourself! At Pluto’s, you have the freedom to create any salad your mind can come up with. With three types of lettuce, seven free fixings, and over 20 options for what to put in your salad, you can’t go wrong here. It’s not only affordable, but it’s healthy, too!
Now that you are better educated on your dining options at Santana Row, you almost have no excuse to not come here! We have all different types of cuisines, atmospheres, and even price points. So for your next lazy afternoon lunch, a romantic date, and everything in between, you can always be sure to find something suitable here at the Row.
