    Holy place. They distribute Prasad (food) all day long. No charges. Not restricted to any community. They spread love and peace. Sikh are always ready to help anyone and everyone.

    Amazing experience to sit and meditate in the hall. Also enjoy the continuous Langer served in a separate hall with a tasty vegetarian thali. Good space for parking. Situated on top of a hill. Great views from the top.

    I’ve visited a lot of Gurudwaras back home(in Delhi), and every time I visit one, I feel a sense of undefinable peace. And the visit here was no different. I sat in the prayer hall for a long time, and felt at peace like I have only a few times before in my life. The prayer hall is huge, and being inside the hall is a sublime experience. They provide masks as well, and try their best to enforce covid precautions. The langar hall is behind the prayer hall, and the food is pretty good as well. You can do sewa(service) in the langar hall as well. They’ve ample parking outside too and the views outside the gurudwara are amazing too. I’ll be back here again.

    This is a beautiful gurudwara situated on hills. I have been coming here from 8 years now. I always feel grounded when I see so many humble and dedicated people working together distributing or receiving Prasad. All the arrangements are excellent. It’s a grand place where I love to come and sit for peace and to connect with god almighty.

    The reviews can’t be for holy places like gurudwara. But just wanted to say this place is amazing , clean and the environment is so nice .. good for meditation and seat in a calm place to calm down you fine and to refresh your mind . Loved this place and there will be outstanding langar services until 10 pm . Am showing gratitude to those devotees and people who are serving in the langar ..hats off and thank you

    A huge Gurudwara saheb at a beautiful location - it is on sort of a mountain/elevation. Huge prayer and discourse hall. Adjacent to the main hall, there is a Langar where food is served, FREE. Nice food. From the location, there is a very good view of San Jose. A beautiful sun-set fiew from there.

    The sikh worship place on the mountain in a serene environment and peaceful surrounding to achieve mental solace and peace. so peaceful and happy whenever I go there.. they have lots of different activities always happen there . You can get lot of information about immigration, medical , insurance and many more . Every Sunday we got with family and I can see the impact on my two little kids , they also loved it and always wait to go there . They also celebrate Diwali with fire crackers, lodhi with fire and many more festival like we do back in our country.

    Always a divine experience visiting Gurudwara. One of the biggest Gurudwara in California. Langar/Prasad was delicious. A very quiet and calm place of worship. We regular go here. It’s open to all. Do visit. 🙏🙏🙏

    What an amazing place. Go and pray for yourself, meditate or just indulge spiritually. I love places of worship that welcome you with open arms, without anyone trying to convert you. Donate and eat their fantastic food. BTW, I am not a Sikh.

    Beautiful gurdwara. Built on the top of a hill. Very well built. Lot of parking space. It has space to keep your shoes. Washbasin and restrooms are right next. The place is very clean . The darbar sahib is very big and can accommodate 2580 persons at one time. Very serene and quite atmosphere. After aradas get kada parshad very tasty. Langar is provided till 10pm on weekdays. Langar hall is very big and clean. It accommodates 980 persons at one time. Surroundings are beautiful, lot of trees, beautiful flowers and the view of San Jose is just mesmerising.

    Had heard about this Gurudwara quite a lot and decided on impulse to visit the place quite late in the evening. We had a quick look around and were very pleased to see a very well planned and executed place of worship on top of a hill. We decided to leave early and come back for a detailed visit in the day time.

    Sikh Gurudwara beats my expectations by miles. I am someone who has a faith in Golden temple Amritsar, after coming to the US, San Jose Gurudwara is the first one I visited and it gave me a déjà-vu of Golden Temple. The large courtyard is a comforting place to bow and listen to the keertans. The maintenance and cleanliness of the whole place also calls for an applause. The langar prasad is very tasty and served out of love which will make you visit again.

    If you ever need to be reminded there are decent humans in the world, visit any Gurdwara. Not Sikh? You are still welcomed with open arms. Its peaceful, a great place to meditate, no judgement, a place to feel welcomed, and beautiful views!

    This had been on my to-go list for a long time and I finally got the opportunity to visit today. Quite an amazing structure, well built, looks authentic and maintained very well. Cleanliness of this place was appreciable. I got a chance to witness a Sikh wedding ceremony here, and it was fairy-tale like. After offering our prayers, we proceeded to the langar hall and experienced their delicious meal. I am told that meals are served only during specific times, and otherwise they offer snacks. I am not sure. The langar prasad was a full-fledged meal containing dal makhni, matar paneer, jwar bajra roti, jeera rice, pickle, boondi raita, kheer, white butter, jalebi, laddu, gulab jamun, pakodi. Tea arrangements were also present. I really appreciate the dedication of the volunteers and managing committee. This quality of food and the willingness to serve is truly appreciable, along with the good maintenance of the premises. Definitely a must-visit.
