Craving Creole cooking? Cajun fare comes alive at San Jose's Poor House Bistro, a top spot for enjoying Southern cuisine not too far from Vista. Here you'll find some tasty entrees: po’ boy sandwiches, for instance, with fillings like fried oysters, slow roasted pork, and turkey. For a true taste of Southern food, try one of the house specials, such as jambalaya, red beans and rice, and crawfish pasta.

In addition to the tasty menu, Poor House Bistro also offers a lot in the way of live entertainment. Blow off some steam after a stressful work day with a cold one and one of Poor House’s delicious appetizers. French bread is stuffed with tasty Italian sausage and comes with Creole mustard on the side. Blackened chicken wings are a twist on the old classic, while Cajun popcorn offers a little something different. There's really a lot to love about this San Jose restaurant.
