Second the comments about Mountain View lol. If it was hockey season I’d recommend hitting a sharks 🦈 game

Went to university there. Avoid unless you genuinely enjoy the smell of homeless people and trash.

I second Mountain View. Or come over to Palo Alto where all the good stuff is 👍🏻

if you don't want to go out to MV or PA (which are both great), Santana Row will do in a pinch. A little artificial feeling but some decent restaurants there and only 15ish minutes from downtown
