The Scene – The San Jose location is less cluttered with little trinkets and baubles than its San Francisco counterpart. The ceiling towers 17 feet high, giving the restaurant a wonderfully airy quality. Sleek blond-wood floors and rich dark-wood chairs and tables create an elegant contrast in downtown's historic 18th-century Security Building. – – The Food – The fusion cuisine centers around Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and India. The crab cakes, calamari, corn fritters and truly regal imperial rolls are all wonderful. Meat lovers should try the New York…

This place is delicious, with a succulent blend of asian cusine! The bar is always slow and jammed up, but the infused liquors are tasty.
Service was good and the ambiance interesting!
best calamari
by jang_012345 at Citysearch
the ambiance was nice whether you eat inside or outside. outside during a great day is wonderful. see people walking by.
the calamari was crunchy and the salted just enough. the sauce is the awesome, dont know what it was made of but wow. yum yum yum... dont really for any other food there :) just the calamari, the couple of other main dishes that i tasted were too tasty or too much of oyster sauce .
Amazing Asian Fusion restaurant!
by TweetieMiller1 at Citysearch
My Fiance took me to E&O trading company for an anniversary and I enjoyed every minute of the meal and the experience. A great dining experience is not only sharing it with people or someone, but it's also the food, the ambiance, conversation, and the friendliness of the wait staff. The appetizers were amazing, from the tuna tar tar, to this crispy corn, I knew once I tasted the appetizers, that the food was not going to disappoint. I also enjoyed the drinks, the drink menu consisted of martini's to an excellent wine list. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a special night with a group of friends, or with a special someone on a date night.
Great Romantic Asian Fusion Restaurant
by verlisia at Citysearch
E&O is one of my favorite fusion restaurant located in San Jose downtown accessible by the light rail. I have dined here numerous times and was never disappointed. The ambiance is romantic yet casual. The service is always friendly and attentive.
For your first visit I recommend the following dishes.
Small Plates
Indonesian Corn Fritters - Crispy fried corn dipped in sweet chilli soy sauce. Consider this their house specialty. If you ask your server for recommendation, he/she is most likely going to tell you about the corn fritters.
Spicy Sweet Potato Flat Bread - For those of you who is not a big fan of fried food, the flat bread is a healthier alternative.
Big Plates
Shaking Beef - Tender cubed beef filet cooked in a tasty garlic sauce. This dish is done almost exactly according to the classic Vietnamese recipe.
Shiso Pepper Grilled Salmon - Simple yet tasty grilled salmon completed with mixed greens.
Other honorable mentions
Duck Imperial Roll
Ginger Portobello Satay
Hardwood Grilled Ahi
- Pros: Good Food, Romantic Ambiance
- Cons: Downtown Parking
