Parcel 104

very coasy, quiet, well cooked food!

Great service, what we had was interesting but a green herb which we couldn’t pin point was a tad too strong.

This has been the go to place for HH with coworkers. They have a good selection in their HH menu. Be sure to try their drink menu specials and flatbreads.
I actually liked their flatbreads. They had steak and veggie choices while I was there and they filled them up with a good amount of vegetables and meat on them. It was on the small side for the price, however I would expect an additional cost since it’s at hotel restaurant.
As for the drinks, it’s a pretty cool gesture to have the martinis made in front of you even you though you’re sitting at one of the high tables. They have a variety of gin, vodka, whiskey, etc so you can choose the label you want. They don’t have a lot of variety in specialized drinks, however they can make your classic cocktails. Be sure to ask for the prices of the wines when the server recommends you something because the price for the glass can be higher than expected.
I do like the ambiance. It’s chic and elegant. Whether you’re chilling with friends or conducting business, this place has a good atmosphere.

Loved the «island lover» whiskey flight. Never tasted them before and glad to have found them. Cheese plate was also amazing. The ceasar salad was mediocre, the dressing was too sour for my palate. Service was amazing

A hotel bar/​restaurant that could easily survive (even thrive) on its own. It’s elevated food and craft beverages with a focus on local ingredients… and you know I’m all about that #SupportLocal life. Menus tend to change like the seasons so don’t expect to see the same stuff every time. But do expect a consistently high quality meal.
FWIW, I hear their Happy Hour is pretty dope.

Das Essen ist exzellent. Service gut. Weine ausgezeichnet. 3 Sterne gibt es weil es absolut nicht in Ordnung ist, einem einzelnen Gast stilles Wasser für 10 $ zu verkaufen, vor allem zu einem Zeitpunkt an dem man noch nicht mal in die Karte schauen könnte um das zu sehen.

Great place in the neighborhood. The long wait after the reservation was totally worth it once we got to the table.

I found this place years ago when I worked at Sun Microsystems, it was good then and it is good now! One of the best burgers was here at lunch while seated outside. The restaurant is within yelling distance from the roller coaster at Great America… I did not know that, and seemingly every time I took a bite of my delicious burger the coaster would get to some point where the riders would scream and shout… I thought it was the food talking, but after looking around fast enough one time I did see the coaster at the top with people waving arms and screaming just before it disappeared behind the trees again… amusing, but the burger was THAT good!
Great preparation of quality ingredients makes for the many excellent meals I have had here over the years… The menu seems to change a lot here, and in asking a waiter he indicated that this is due to availability of the best locally sourced ingredients. I have not had anything here I did not like. I have eaten solo, with one or two other people and in larger groups. It has always been very good. Only a few times have I had dessert, which is a shame as this is probably where the restaurant would deserve a full 5 stars…
Highly recommended. (One caution about the parking lot, I spent a miserable 15 minutes going back and forth to the restaurant and the car in an attempt to get the automated ticket reader to recognize the comped ticket. grrr… but, I had a nice meal just before and soon forgot about that…)

I always loved Parcel 104 before. This was my first visit in quite awhile and much has changed. We went for a holiday lunch. I ordered a ribeye steak. Sorry to say it was very fatty. I ate a little and am bringing the rest home for my greyhound.
The broccolini was very tasty.
They used to have great bread. We were served one roll which is mediocre at best.
I do not know who is their meat supplier, but I believe a change is necessary.
Then, we were asked if we wanted still water or sparkling? We said still. When we received our bill there was a $ 10 charge for the water. That is crazy. First of all one should be warned. Second of all we are not in Paris; $ 10 for a bottle of water even if it comes from New Zealand is totally absurd. Caveat emptor!
I really like Shakira, the manager; she is very sweet. Except for Shakira, I doubt if we will return.

Came here to celebrate my friend’s birthday. I usually don’t go to high end places like this. We started with the 3 cheese platter which was sooo delicious! I can’t remember what we had for the appetizer, but we went with whatever our server, John, recommended to us. We had the Ono and Beef Cheeks. We also had the Chocolate dessert.
John even gave us complementary champagne because it was my friend’s birthday! That was really sweet of him. Service was excellent and every single dish was sooo delicious.

Unbelievable! Best steak I’ve ever had!
I came in for a nice dinner alone while on a business trip and was thoroughly impressed by every part of it. I had the ribeye steak and it was amazing. Best steak I’ve ever had, hands down. It was tender and cooked perfectly with a nice crust on it. I also ordered an Old Fashioned to enjoy with my meal and it was equally exceptional. I stopped to compliment the bartenders on the way out as most places either don’t mix it correctly or use to much bitters and it’s just not a good drink. This was not the case here. The desserts all looked so delicious that I wanted to save room for one, but couldn’t decide, so I asked my server to choose one for me. She mentioned the chef is known for his flan so she chose a dessert for me that included flan, a coconut sorbet, and a pineapple-​upside down cake and they were all delicious.
The prices are a bit on the high side (my total was $ 100+ including tip) but in my opinion, it was worth it. I wanted to have a nice dinner and went in preparing to pay in the $ 75-​$ 100 range, so I was fine with it. I will definitely eat here again next time I am in town.

Food is over priced. Most of the staff are rude and/​or clueless.
There are plenty of better options in this large area.

I have come here with my friends a few times in the past for their breakfast buffet on Sundays. In the past we loved it… After this past Sunday, I do not see us visiting this restaurant for our breakfast buffet in the future. They have raised their price since Levi Stadium has opened, but the quality has declined.
First, their breakfast potatoes is tater tots. If I am paying $ 25 for breakfast, i want some freshly made hash browns or country potatoes! Not some previously frozen products. Second, they no longer have a person making fresh pancakes, frenchtoast and waffles. Instead, they have scrapped the french toast & pancakes and put up ONE waffle iron. Let me tell you with all the teenage girls that were at the restaurant that morning, it was IMPOSSIBLE for our party to get a waffle.
The only positive thing is the service. Manny is so wonderful. But I can go to other places for breakfast from now on, get fresh food and feed 2 people for $ 25 at another dining establishment.

The food is good but the prices are astronomical. I get that it’s a hotel restaurant but $ 16 for a grilled cheese? Whoa.
I had a business lunch here and it’s definitely a very good environment for that. I like the open kitchen area, and the finishes are clean and high end. They do take reservations for lunch, and it’s probably a good idea to make one since they were completely full on a random Thursday.
The menu is relatively small — maybe 6 or 7 starters that could potentially serve as a light lunch, and 6 or 7 entrees/​sandwiches. One of the people I was with had a turkey panini for…$ 17. A raspberry iced tea…$ 7.50. I’m sorry — that’s just madness.
My exorbitantly priced grilled cheese was marginal at best — it was three slices of bread and three slices of cheese, so way, way, way too bready. At least it wasn’t greasy. For $ 16, you do get a cup if tomato soup as a side, so there’s that.
Service was really good, despite a full house. Expense accounters, head on in. Others might want to consider taking out a 2^nd mortgage ahead of time.

I looooove the breakfast buffet here.
$ 30 for…
Bagels and lox, bagels and lox, bagels and lox
…and MAKE YOUR OWN WAFFLE!!!
…and bagels and lox, bagels and lox.
The waffle is seriously good. I can’t go anywhere else for my waffle fix now. I also like how they put up a sign with instructions on how to use the waffle iron shortly after they watched me fail at using it because I didn’t know how… ehheeheh.
The lox is also really good quality, and the lox station has all the fixings, like peppercorns, diced boiled egg, onions, diced tomatoes. Toast your bagel and pile it high with this stuff!!! Then come back for seconds, and thirds!
If that wasn’t convincing enough, they have an omelette/​egg station, an assortment of breads and bagels (AND POPPYSEED BAGELS!!) with a toaster, assortment of pastries, meat slices, pre-​made scrambled eggs, quiche, bacon, sausage, banana bread pudding, oatmeal, fruit, yogurt, cereal… I think I got it all. It’s all really good noshin’

Slow, SLOW service! The place was nearly empty and we had to wait for a really long time just for water & coffee when we were there for breakfast this last weekend. The prices are horribly high too. I think it was like $ 3.95 for one egg.
The server told us we would be waiting even longer because the kitchen was slow. Really, on a Sunday when people are hungry, getting out of church and visiting Great America, taking tours at the Levi Stadium?
Never again.

Wow! I think I had the best chicken breast of my life (and I eat a lot of chicken breast). I loved the pairing of the green chili sauce, asparagus and cabbage. The skin-​on chicken breast was cooked to perfection. Each vegetable looked like a «State Fair Grand Champion» and the combinations were unique/​memorable. I am already looking forward to my next trip to Silicon Valley just so I can see what combinations the Chef will dream up.
If I had one critique it would be the décor is more aligned to the hotel than the restaurant/​food.
The wait staff is first rate. As soon as my fork was set down, someone was there to grab the dish.
Great for a smaller (up to 6) business meeting as well as a romantic evening.

Came for happy hour and loved the ambiance of the place. Place was intimate, yet large enough that the other group of people will not hear your private lil lady-​talk. Drink options were ok. wish there were more choices but loved the appetizer selections.
Waiter service was quick and friendly although towards the end. one of the waiters forgot one drink order.
Also, I parked in the garage and had to pay $ 4…wish they didn’t have to charge. Boo.

Yes they have very succulent food, cocktail and great service. Last time I tried a spearfish grilled with smoked ham hock hash and collard greens accompanied by Magnum 357, contained Bourbon, Vermouth, Bitters, Man-​Cherries, Flamed orange. It was so palatable that I’m even still drooling while I’m composing this review.

OMG! I’ve missed Foie Gras so much! So, last week after I got back from our cruise I heard that California’s ban of Foie Gras had been overturned, I immediately started looking for restaurants which was putting it back on the menu. I called Parcel 104 last Thursday, 1/​8, and they said that they were going to get Foie Gras back next week, but they didn’t know when, but would call me back when they got it it. Come Monday, 1/​12, I received a call around noon saying that they got it in, so, I made a reservation for that night at 7:30PM.
I called the restaurant around 6PM to check on their menu since it changes daily. They said that they had Foie Gras, but it was on a first come first served basis. I changed our reservation for to 7PM to make sure that they didn’t run out. We arrived at the restaurant around 6:45PM and the first thing I did was put 4 orders of the Foie Gras in while waiting for my friends to arrive.
The BBQ seared Foie Gras was to die for! Parcel 104 chefs still remembered how to prepare Foie Gras! Joy Joy! Perfectly seared with a hint of BBQ sauce, served with cornbread, avocado salsa and coleslaw.
For my main course, I ordered the Llano Seco Pork Loin Chops, served with Kabocha squash fritters, Maitake mushrooms but with seared Foie Gras added. So decadent and delicious!
To finish off the evening, we ordered a flight of 21 year old Scotch; three generous pours of three very different Scotches, each with its very distinctive taste, sweet, smokey and smooth.
Great meal with great friends, what can you ask for?

I am happy to say after all these years I am still pretty pleased with the overall quality of food and service at Parcel 104. The menu changes very frequently, and as a consequence, every now and again I would encounter a dish that I am not a fan of.
That said, their dessert had never failed me. It is a place where I would order all the dessert offered on the menu and enjoyed every single bite on each of them. Chef Carlos Sanchez is an amazing pastry chef.
