Farm-to-table restaurant near Santa Clara Conv Center?

Can anyone recommend a reasonably-priced (so no Manresa) restaurant near the Santa Clara Convention Center that has a seasonal focus? I'm willing to drive 10 miles in any direction.

TIA.

    Parcel 104 in the Santa Clara Marriot is very close to your location, and they do seem to meet your seasonal/farm-to-table requirement. Their slogan is even "Seasonal farm-fresh American fare".

    I have been here for dinner a few times and the food has always been great. It might be on the pricey side though (but nowhere near as pricey as Manresa), so not sure if it will meet your reasonably-priced requirement.

      I saw that, and the menu looked great. Sadly it is probably too high to take a frugal friend.

        Unfortunately, frugal dinners and fresh, seasonal dinners have few restaurants in common; wish it weren't so.

        Bradley Ogden has Yankee Pier at Santana Row, which is just a few minutes down the freeway. Most of my meals there have been fresh, seasonal, and good (a few clunkers occasionally). Check out their menu before going. Good luck!
