The food landscape here mirrors Santa Clara's international workforce, with Syrian shawarma, Peruvian lomo saltado, Japanese izakayas, and Uyghur hand-pulled noodles sitting side by side. It's also a notable Korean food hub, with an impressive concentration of KBBQ spots, late-night Korean pubs, and modern Seoul-style cafes that keep pace with anything in the South Bay and beyond.
