As we continued our conversation about the world and all
things Gilroy, San Martin and Gilroy, Our meals arrived.
Janet’s entree was the Asian Chicken Salad (shredded
romaine, cabbage, peanuts, mandarin oranges, picked ginger
over rice noodles and served with sesame dressing and served
with a generous portion of chicken breast). It had a hint of
mustard that Janet really liked.
Mike, although not a big heavy meat eater, ordered the
14 ounce hand cut Rib Eye Steak with double vegetables (an
Old City Hall favorite, grilled to perfection). Mike found it to
be a little more well-done than he preferred but noted that the
flavor was excellent.
J. Chris opted for her favorite, Fresh Grilled Salmon Filet
(topped with artichoke caper sauce) and a double order of
veggies. She’s a big fan of salmon so she has become some-
what of a connoisseur. She noted that Old City Hall is one of
her favorite places to enjoy salmon.
I chose the Chicken Piccata (grilled chicken breast with
lemon white wine parsley sauce topped with capers) served
with vegetables and rice pilaf. I enjoy cooking and know that
the balance of wine sauce and capers can be problematic —
I found this sauce to be well balanced and delicious.
When Kim asked if we were up for dessert, our first
response was “NO!” but, our resolve waned when she said
that they had Créme Brúlée. And we were happy that it did.
Its crusty top and creamy, cool custard were the perfect end
to a very pleasant dining experience.
Old City Hall Restaurant is located in the historic 1905 Gilroy
City Hall building on the corner of Sixth and Monterey Streets. In
addition to breakfast, lunch and dinner seven days a week, they
