This Lunardi's has gotten bigger than it was when I was a kid, as it expanded into the retail space on the side opposite of Los Gatos Blvd, where it now has the bakery and fresh produce section.
When I was very young, I have distinct memories of the Elephant Ears from their bakery and have just begun getting them again for a little bit of that nostalgia... and because they're freaking delicious in general! Maybe I shouldn't let this secret out, but the LG Lunardi's has better elephant ears than any of the other locations I've had the opportunity to try. Definitely better than the ones from the location on the corner of Branham Rd and Meridian Rd in SJ... though I think what used to be Cosentino's on Union Ave and Bascom Ave is now a Lunardi's, and I haven't had a chance to try them from there.
So basically, this is where the dank elephant ears are... I just ask that you please leave me some so I don't regret...

The service is phenomenal and you can get grass-fed beef as well as organic chicken. Other favorite's at King's Court include Togo's and Peet's Coffee.

No wonder they still had FOOD when every other Los Gatos grocery stores were bare at the beginning of COVID, while leonardis still had everything.. Nothing like it used to be.. Fruits and veg are fresh, flavorful, but to expensive, non seasonal food is amazing.. Pineapple at...
