About Lion Plaza
Located at 1816 Tully Rd #198, San Jose, CA 95122, Lion Plaza operates as a food court serving San Jose in California. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it. Google also lists it under shopping mall, grocery store, restaurant, which is worth knowing if you are comparing several options in the area.
These businesses tend to have short hours built around lunch and early dinner rather than late-night service, so checking the listed hours before heading out in San Jose saves a wasted trip. Seating is often limited or first-come, and many locations lean toward takeout or delivery rather than dining in. Prices are generally lower than full-service restaurants in the same category, which makes this group a reliable option for a fast, inexpensive meal across California. Portions can be smaller at food-court counters than at a stand-alone restaurant, so ordering two items is common for a full meal. Many of these businesses are independently owned even inside a shared food hall, so hours, accepted payment methods and whether a counter takes online orders can differ from stall to stall within the same building.
The business lists hours on 7 days of the week. Typical hours are 10:30 amβ6 pm. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. You can reach Lion Plaza at (408) 238-7577; calling is usually the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or directions.
Its Google rating is 4.0 out of 5 from 885 reviews, a solid but mixed picture; reading the most recent reviews will tell you what to expect.
San Jose is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. Getting around San Jose is easiest by car; street parking is metered in busy downtown areas, and most suburban businesses have their own lot. Ride-share apps such as Uber and Lyft operate across California's larger cities, and public transit varies from extensive to minimal.

Lion Plaza is a well-known shopping center in East San Jose, offering a mix of Vietnamese restaurants, grocery stores, and specialty shops. The plaza is home to Lion Supermarket, which carries a wide selection of Asian ingredients, fresh produce, and seafood, making it a convenient stop for those looking for authentic flavors. While the plaza has a variety of dining options, some areas feel a bit outdated, and parking can be challenging during peak hours. Despite this, it remains a central hub for the local Vietnamese community, providing access to traditional foods, household essentials, and cultural goods.

One of the OG Vietnamese plazas in the area. Is it the first? Not sure. BUT it's one with a decent market, a couple of good restaurants, and a ton of bakeries! It used to have a pond, but that's been closed up for a while. The food court is a bit depressing on a weekday, but I'm sure it gets packed on the weekends.
