Where to start
Kura Revolving Sushi Bar: a sushi meal
1628 Hostetter Road, Suite 40
The San Jose branch page lists sushi alongside udon, ramen and desserts. It gives this restaurant its own numbered suite rather than the grocery anchor's address.
Make Kura your main meal if sushi is the reason for the visit. Check the branch's current menu and arrival arrangements before setting off, especially if you are meeting a group.
GEN Korean BBQ House: a barbecue alternative
1628 Hostetter Road, Suite F
GEN's current location list identifies its San Jose restaurant at this suite and links to the branch menu. Choose it as an alternative to the sushi meal, with time set aside for barbecue.
Use the current menu when comparing options for your group. Prices, menu packages and service times can change, so confirm those directly before making plans around them.
Bambu: a Vietnamese dessert drink stop
1688 Hostetter Road, Suite D
The Bambu Hostetters branch page confirms the address. The brand's chè menu gives you a starting point for choosing a Vietnamese dessert drink.
Check the local selection before deciding what to order. This can be a separate short stop rather than a requirement after a full restaurant meal.
99 Ranch Market: groceries before heading home
1688 Hostetter Road
The Hostetter branch page confirms the grocery address and carries its own store offers. Check the current branch information if you need a particular ingredient or product.
Leave chilled and frozen purchases until the end of the outing. A short shopping list makes it easier to combine groceries with a meal without turning the visit into a longer errand.
Choose a meal, then shop
Start with Kura or GEN, depending on what your group wants to eat. Add Bambu if a dessert drink fits the plan, then finish with the grocery shop.
Two hours is a planning allowance, not a measured route or a promise about queues. You can also make this a grocery visit with one optional food stop.
Before you go
Use each business's street number and suite. Follow posted parking rules, and check current schedules rather than assuming all the businesses open together.
