Best Bites: Willow Glen

Little Opa! is known for its big Greek flavors.

Willow Glen offers a pedestrian friendly neighborhood with a distinctive flavor. Here are some of our favorite places to eat in the Glen.

Haymarket
Haymarket brings a big city sensibility to little Willow Glen with a eclectic menu, communal seating and an appealing list of wine and beer. The menu changes, but past highlights includes beef marrow bones, duck meatloaf and the banh mi sandwiches.

La Villa Delicatessen and Gourmet Shop
La Villa hardly needs an introduction, but for those who don’t know it’s got everything you want in a Italian deli—big sandwiches, fresh ravioli and fancy olive oils and other specialty grocery items.

Opa!
Opa! packs a lot of life into its tiny Lincoln Avenue storefront. The restaurant serves modernized takes on Greek classics. The Opa! fries with feta cheese and Opa! sauce are not to be missed.

Willow Glen Frozen Yogurt and Ice Cream Co.
The frozen yogurt is good, but the real draw is the frozen custard, an ultra rich take on soft serve ice cream.

Willow Street Wood Fired Pizza
Recently remodeled to add parking, this is the mother ship of one of Silicon Valley’s best pizzas outlets, made thin and crispy. The rest of the menu is solid, too.
