San Jose and Santa Rosa is a light rail stop on the Muni Metro J Church line, located in the Mission Terrace neighborhood of San Francisco, California. The stop has two side platforms in the block between Santa Rosa Avenue and Pilgrim Terrace, with the platforms located just before the intersection in each direction.

J Church and N Judah trains began using the extension of the J Church line along San Jose Avenue for carhouse moves on August 31, 1991. Although these trips were open to passengers, the extension and its stops did not open for full-time service until June 19, 1993.[1]

In March 2014, Muni released details of the proposed implementation of their Transit Effectiveness Project (later rebranded MuniForward), which included a variety of stop changes for the J Church line. Under that plan, the inbound platform would be extended towards Santa Rosa Avenue, and the outbound platform moved south of the street, thus allowing trains to cross through the intersection before stopping.[2]
