What is your response time to Los Gatos from San Ramon?

The drive runs about 50 minutes via 680 and 85. We fold Los Gatos into our South Bay routing with Saratoga and Los Altos Hills, so a call today typically books within two business days, and a fully down unit in a working restaurant gets bumped to the front.

Can you diagnose during prep hours instead of service?

Yes, and it is better for everyone. We aim for late morning or the mid-afternoon lull, and most diagnoses take under 30 minutes. If the part is on the van, the whole repair is done before your first seating.

The unit sparks sometimes. Should we keep using it?

No, stop using it and call. Sparking means arcing in the cavity, usually from a cracked shelf, a damaged waveguide cover, or metal contamination, and continued use burns holes that total the unit. The $75 diagnostic tells you exactly what is arcing and what the fix costs.

Menumaster in Los Gatos

Menumaster commercial service.

Los Gatos concentrates its food scene along North Santa Cruz Avenue and the blocks around Old Town, a dense run of restaurants, wine bars with food programs, and cafes. Plenty of those kitchens keep a Menumaster on the line for steaming, tempering, and rapid reheats, and in the smaller kitchens it is a primary tool, not a convenience.

Kitchens here tend to be older buildings with tight, hot lines, and heat is the quiet enemy of commercial microwaves. Components rated for a ventilated counter live a shorter life next to a saute station. That context shapes what I look for when I open a Los Gatos unit.

We service Los Gatos from San Ramon with the frequent-failure parts stocked, written quotes before work, the $75 diagnostic waived with repair, and a 1-year warranty on every repair.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Magnetron failure accelerated by line heat. A magnetron that would last five years on a cool counter can die in two beside a hot line. The unit runs but output falls off until food comes back cold-centered. We test output with a measured load, confirm the magnetron against the diode and capacitor, and replace it with the OEM part.
Antenna motor failure and uneven heating. When the antenna motor stops turning, the energy pattern in the cavity freezes and you get one scorched stripe and cold zones everywhere else. Cooks notice it as inconsistent product. It is a fast fix once diagnosed, and catching it early prevents arc damage inside the cavity.
Door latch wear from service-pace cycling. Restaurant pace means the door gets worked hard every night, and the latch levers and springs wear until the door needs a deliberate press to register. Left alone, the interlock switches fail next. We rebuild the latch hardware and replace any switch that shows resistance out of spec.
