Perfect place for weekend brunch.
Ever since Hobbes closed down in north San Jose, I was searching for my next brunch spot. And after trying dozens of restaurants, I found the perfect substitute.
I absolutely love this restaurant. Amazing vibe, great food and excellent service.
It had good costal decor, kinda! And hygiene was their top priority. I could see!
I wasn’t a big fan of their fries, but portobello mushrooms sandwich was amazing.
Even skillet chicken was good. Maybe a little bit too cheesy!
Definitely recommend this restaurant.

Flames is a longtime fixture in South San Jose. Like any respectable diner, the food is good, made to order and served hot. Servings are generously proportioned. The coffee is bland but mugs are refilled with fastidious regularity. The servers are extremely attentive and responsive. Just about the best diner experience you could hope for.

Good old fashioned coffee shop. These have gone the way of drive-in movies. Great comfort food. A little pricey, but nice portions. Nice dessert options if you still have room.

The bathroom had no paper towels to dry hands, however everything else was great and the follow up on the drinks was on spot. The food perfect! Omelettes taste great!

An awesome diner! Well it kind of looks a little old. I think that's really cool. All the decorations, the carpets, the fake plants and the colors just somehow go well together! I think this is the same flames that opened up a restaurant in downtown San Jose before that one closed and there used to be one of Milpitas if I remember, but I heard that this one is the original and I can kind of see why! It looks like it's a really well taken care of a local restaurant! Hopefully it will mean like that for many years to come! For the food, the pasta that I ordered was all right. It was a lot of pasta as it should be but the taste kind of felt a little flat... Server was also minimal but was friendly at times. They're so old, it takes a long time to process credit cards! 😅

One of the last great diner style restaurants in San Jose, since the pandemic caused so many restaurants to close and go out of business. Great food. Breakfast, lunch and dinner served all day. Excellent breakfast scrambles. Fantastic pancakes/waffles. The sandwiches are awesome. Nice roomy booths and they accommodate large parties.

My cat was at the medvet next door and while we waited we decided to try Flames Coffee Shop. For our visit here we were greeted warmly and seated immediately. The staff was friendly and attentive to us. I ordered the steak breakfast which came with a generous portion of steak cooked perfectly, 3 eggs, hashbrowns and toast. I was very pleased with the meal and enjoyed it with a cup of fresh coffee. My husband ordered a patty melt with hot fresh fries, he was very happy with the quality of the burger and will order again. The cakes looked delicious so we took a peice of cheesecake to go. The atmosphere is very relaxing and roomy with plenty of seating. Would highly recommend for an American diner. The menu is quite large so you will find something for everyone.

Perfect place to go for a more traditional diner feel. Great breakfast options and good portions. Pictures don't do it justice but the food is good too. French toast was my favorite here.

This is a really good place for breakfast. It has a American diner vibe with a good selection in their menu. It wasn't busy when we went and the service was quick. Id recommend their omelette as it was well done and tasty.

Great tasting food with safe and courteous staff. Our family enjoyed a pleasant dinner and desert at flames. It was not crowded at the time and we were safely tucked away from other patrons.

Went to the Flames Coffee Shop on Santa Teresa in San Jose with a friend and had great, fast service. They have awesome meals, too. Will be going back for sure.

I feel like I could sit here for a hour or two writing my books and drinking coffee and then ordering some lunch and writing in between. :) This is a great place to get food. It's clean, the staff are nice, the food is hot & delicious, and it's very cozy to be inside. Warm and welcoming atmosphere. I would definitely come back here again sometime. :)

It was a great meeting with our group. Food, service, staff, were all so nice! We'll be back!

This place is sooooo outdated and needs a good cleaning. I was in a booth but chairs had food and crap dripping off them and you can smell years of grease in the carpet. Service was good; steak way over cooked when asked fro medium rare and neither waitress nor hostess could care less. At least waitress apologized but since she didn't check on us until the end of the meal there was no time to correct it.

We have a good breakfast after ASH Wednesday .The place are clean, the food that we order are so delicious. The price was right on both Quality and Quantity. Our server were so courteous and you don't have to call them for a coffee refills. Everyone were satisfied and happy, will refer it to our church members and friends.
