History
Chef Monalisa was established in 2009. We began as chef owner and operator of a personal chef/catering business. The business grew quickly with every bite! We opened first a catering and event hall in Downtown San Jose, on Second Street in 2011. In May of 2013, we opened the location as a cafe. In June of 2014 we moved and opened the cafe in the Lower Level of the County Building at 70 West Hedding st., San Jose. We proudly serve County Employees and guests to the building. Chef Monalisa and staff are dedicated to providing the freshest and highest quality seasonal ingredients. We are committed to exemplary service. We offer prepared to order breakfast and lunch and many healthy Grab N Go options. We serve a hot soup, and hot entrees daily and prepare sandwiches to order. We have many gluten-free, vegetarian and healthy options.
