The Bywater Los Gatos Reviews from The Last Year
Bywater is suppose to be a Michelin star restaurant !! But
Bywater is suppose to be a Michelin star restaurant !! But the service was bad the server got the order wrong a few times with me and other customers. Took for ever to get the check !! Although the gumbo was awesome , the Po' boy average any one could serve that nothing much to it . Overall an average experience. I think they need to rethink the Michelin rating !!
Great authentic Cajun with a Bloody Mary to match.
Very relaxed atmosphere with very friendly staff willing to accommodate your special requests.

We met up with some friends who also wanted to try The Bywater in Los Gatos. We went off hours, and we were seated immediately. The staff was friendly, hospitable, and made some recommendations. I can only imagine the look and the feel of the place would be something you would see in New Orleans. We wanted to sample a few things as we had eaten lunch beforehand. Raw Oysters: cocktail sauce, mignonette. Their choice of oysters, which were briny and fresh. Seafood Gumbo File: Crab, oyster, crawfish, & shrimp. (3.5/5). I liked the dish, but it didn't wow me. Rich Man's Red Beans 'N Rice (3/5). It was ok. Creole Spiced Fries (3/5) - it came with house-made ketchup, which was tomato-ey, tasty, and slightly tart. Fries were thick cut. They had special tacos that we tried as well.

Been visiting this restaurant for many years and now I am finally leaving a review about this establishment. All I have to say is that the Bywater in Los Gatos has excellent food and great service! If you ever in the beautiful town of Los Gatos, California, give this place a try and you will not be disappointed.
The bywater was kind of a bummer for me since the menu was
The bywater was kind of a bummer for me since the menu was not as robust as I thought it would be. The food is good but not mind blowing. We got a bunch of happy hour food including fries, gumbo, rice & beans, and pulled pork tacos. All of it was good but I wanted more from it. I think I just had higher expectations for the bywater. The fries were nice crispy well seasoned. The rice and beans were okay. The gumbo was fantastic with great flavor and had a good amount of seafood swimming in there. There was also a nice giant juicy oyster chillin. The tacos were great as well. The menu itself had a few apps and entrees and otherwise were just poboys. Not a bad place to check out.
My boyfriend and I went here for Sunday brunch.
We were there around noon, I had made a reservation online about 40 minutes before, but it wasn't necessary because we could've walked in. It was about half full and more people came while we were eating. Plenty of street parking nearby. They have indoor dining bar, dining covered outdoor dining and open air dining that has umbrellas as well. We sat outside because it was a nice sunny winter day. I had the brunch punch cocktail, and my boyfriend had the Manhattan. Both were excellent!! The food was really good and filling, we really enjoyed our experience and spoke several times of how we'd be back
I had no idea this gem of a brunch spot was in Los Gatos!
I had no idea this gem of a brunch spot was in Los Gatos! It's Michelin recommended so I was super excited to try and it out and it definitely matched my expectations. The star of the show is the beignets. Sooo fluffy, light, and crispy and tasted amazing with the chocolate sauce. It had the perfect level of sweetness as well and was such a good way to end the meal. We also loved their chicken and waffles and shrimp and grits. The Bloody Mary was also super flavorful and the perfect level of spice. The Irish channel coffee was like a warm espresso martini and a great pick me up. I can't wait to come back and try their bbq items as well. Has to be one of my new favorite brunch spots in the South Bay!
Easily the best food we've had in quite some time.
The service was a perfect match to the entire meal. Friendly and knowledgeable! We started with the shrimp cocktail, the sauce will knock your socks off, but in a good way! Everything we ate hit the mark and we'll be back for brunch. The fried chicken was crispy and not greasy, the gumbo and red beans and rice were uber flavorful, the tender brisket had a bark like you'd find in the South and the citrus winter salad with black garlic and lardon was the perfect compliment to the richness of the rest of the meal. Can't wait to sit outside on a warmer day!
I had to cancel my New Orleans trip this year due to
I had to cancel my New Orleans trip this year due to weather conditions. But hey, I think I found a new favorite restaurant. On that note, I've been reflecting and thinking that the moment you think you have something in the bag is actually probably when you don't have it in the bag. I am being constantly humbled and brought back down to earth. But due to how the stars are aligned, you end up where you need to be when you need to be. And on a less dramatic note, that's probably how I ended up at The Bywater. LOL. But I seriously loved everything about this place. From the food to the service and ambiance, everything was 5 stars. I got the Nashville Chicken Po Boy lunch special. They were generous with the plump, tender, and perfectly fried chicken pieces. The chicken seasoning was salty and spicy on an equal level (balancing it out in a weird but "that makes sense" way). The bread was perfectly soft on the inside and chewy. The coleslaw inside the Po Boy provided the perfect neutralizing, creamy balance. As suggested by one of the employees, I drizzled their house Watermelon sauce on the chicken...omfg...just do it. And the fries on the side were perfection as well. Service was great. The interior pulls you into New Orleans (at least...what I have seen from pictures...I will see you one day NOLA!)
What a great place! I enjoyed the ambiance, and the food
What a great place! I enjoyed the ambiance, and the food was just delicious. I ate inside for my first visit, but I checked out the back patio, and would feel comfortable bringing my dog here. Can't wait to try the Sunday brunch!
Still great option for Cajun in the South Bay - fun atmosphere + good food
I haven't been to the Bywater since pre-pandemic 2019. I remembered this place when thinking about a dining venue for my two friends and me. Fun atmosphere + good food all were just as I remembered. I also was reminded that some servings might be on the small side. We all ordered the gumbo - super tasty, but the "bowl" is really more of a hearty appetizer than a full entree. For three of us, we ended up ordering fried oysters, the gumbo, and an order of fried chicken (plus dessert). The cocktails were awesome and service was great. We were outdoors in their lower patio on a cold and rainy night. With the roof and heaters we were very comfortable.

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it? |
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.

Hi Community,
I am new to this site and just recently bought a reservation here. I noticed that on the reservation page, it is booked under a random name and a virtual email address.
I can't find any button to change either the name or the email for this reservation I bought. So, should I just say that random name when I arrived at the restaurant? Not really sure about the procedures.
