Thank You for Dining Downtown!
That’s a wrap on Dine Downtown San Jose 2026!
From July 9–19, downtown San Jose came alive with 11 days of delicious dishes, new discoveries, and plenty of reasons to pull up a chair.
Our 18th annual Restaurant Week brought together some of downtown’s favorite restaurants, cafes, and eateries, serving everything from casual bites and comfort-food classics to creative chef-driven dishes.
Thank you to everyone who joined us, tried something new, revisited an old favorite, and supported the local restaurants that make downtown San Jose such a delicious place to be.
