If you don't mind either getting to the venue ahead of the crowds, or long lines.... and cooking your own food then it's a great price for a lot of great Korean BBQ. There's tons of options, lively music, and great food then this is the place for you.
Watch out for long lines around the normal eating times.
They are open early and have yet to wait in line at 10am.
They just opened another location in Milpitas but have yet to check it out, hoping that it decreased the number of people cramming into this one.
Parking can be tough when the crowds are there.

What cant you get at Costco?
I go here for pizzas, toilet paper and everything in between. It's the great 1 stop shopping for all your everyday needs.

The parking can be tough during the lunch and dinner hour because of the the shared space with Gen BBQ but outside of that the this grocery has been my one stop spot for Asian ingredients.

It's Costco...
If you've been to one then you've been to them all. It's got food, clothes, furniture, etc. If you've never been, then you should go. If you have been to other Costco's then you already know what to expect. Just keep in mind that this location does have a gas station and a tire changing space. Also, they just might have things that you haven't seen before at your local Costco.

Parks & Nature
Not to be confused with larger pastures, it is a large grassy area in the middle of downtown. But it's a grassy peace of mind in downtown San Jose. Sometimes they hold musical concerts, or cultural events and there's always the annual Christmas in the Park.

This park is literally out the door and around the corner, a few minutes walk from our home. It is a pet friendly park with a children's playground.
And for those who are interested, there's a PokemonGo Supply stop located in the corner of the park.
