Reviews
We started with the Classic Caesar, and the freshness of the lettuce was outstanding. The subtle hint of anchovy added a beautiful depth of flavor.
The Carbonara was another highlight — the crispy pancetta and generous shaving of Parmigiano Reggiano were a perfect match. It’s a simple, classic dish, but they execute it with a level of skill that’s not easy to replicate.
The Bone-in Pork Milanese was exceptional. The pork was incredibly tender, and the coating was thin and perfectly crisp, creating a wonderful contrast in texture.
ASA is absolutely a place I want to revisit, and I can’t wait to try more dishes on their menu. Highly recommend!
At times, out of respect for our newly met friends, I refrained from taking out my phone to snap photos of the food, which is something I usually do. However, when the second course arrived, I couldn’t resist capturing the delightful meals we were enjoying. We even wondered aloud if Asa might be a Michelin-starred restaurant that we hadn’t heard of, given the exceptional quality of the dishes.
The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the truffle mushroom slice (though I couldn’t recall the exact description and unfortunately didn’t get a photo). It was incredibly fresh and bursting with umami flavor. For my main course, I opted for the sustainable tuna, which I requested to be cooked well-done. It was prepared just the way I like it—flaky and flavorful.
I typically don’t enjoy dishes that are overly sauced, as some meals simply don’t pair well with their accompaniments. However, Asa’s head chef and the team managed to present everything beautifully, with flavors that danced harmoniously on the plate.
Another standout dish was the double-cut pork chop, which was nothing short of insane! It was juicy, tender, and seasoned to perfection. Now, whenever we crave a delectable pork chop, Asa in Los Gatos will be our go-to destination.
Overall, our experience was nothing short of extraordinary, and we can’t wait to return!
Prices are a little bit up there, but if the service is delivered with such exceptional food, it is worth it.

Highlights
– Atmosphere: fun sexy sheik environment with an energetic vibe was my favorite part of this place. Inside split into bar area and dining room and a covered outdoor patio as well.
– Menu: little bit of everything and part Spanish, part French, part Italian which I appreciate doesn’t follow the standard mold of the same items many restaurants have
– Mushroom pasta: signature dish with rigatoni type tubes coated in a delectable silky sauce reminiscent of Marsala or cognac. Only con is the price at $38 seems steep. 4.25 stars
– Delica squash: fresh squash with a delightful cashew puree and brown butter pomegranate sauce elements. Beautifully plated stacked. One of the surprise stars of the night. 4.25 stars
– Shrimp: great size of shrimp and amount (6), perfect cook, but surprisingly needed more flavor in the seasoning and sauce. 3.75 stars
Midlights:
– No champagne by the glass
Lowlights:
– Crab pasta special: spaghetti with small bits of shredded crab in a tomato sauce overwhelmed it. I was so excited to see this being crab season here, but was disappointed. 2.5 stars
– Random location: in a Best Western parking lot across the freeway in a remote area not in downtown. We have a few drink spots we like to hit up downtown before we go to dinner that are walkable so this isn’t optimal.
Enjoyed my night here and would like to try a few more food items to see how those are.
The appetizer and salads we tried were not so special. The anchovies on baguette were salty and too creamy. The salad had too much dressing
Parking is shared with the hotel and can be challenging on popular weekends.
Food was delicious and they were able to accommodate dietary restrictions such as pescatarian, alcohol free and gluten free.
Highly recommend their scallops and seafood dishes as that is what I ordered whereas the rest of the table enjoyed their meat dishes.
Had a billing concern and Andrew was incredibly kind, helpful, and responsive in helping me to resolve it. I will be going back happily.
