    COWBOY FRIES!!! That's really all you need to order from here. It comes with crispy fries with carne asada, shredded cheese, sour cream, and guac on top. Every time I come to Knotts, I always look forward to getting them.

    Asada fires so good!

    5 stars for the food but the cleanliness of the hole in the wall at Knott's Barry Farm was missing as well as friendly service. The older female employee was not so slow and unfriendly. It appeared as if she was angst like my child says. I definitely noticed her attitude something that would never fly at Disneyland. I waited in a long line and was starving so I took the chance of getting sick when I saw the dirty place. I needed to loose a few pounds anyway so why not? The asada fries were great piled high with tender meat, sour cream, guacamole, cheese, and salsa. She was slow to make them since everything was precooked you would think she would be hustling with the long line. I shared them with my son! I would order again. Check out my pics to judge for yourself on the dirty run down place.

    Came to Momonoki for an event, and very glad I signed up because this turned into quite the food…read moretour. Started with the Hamachi Crudo - fresh hamachi with aguachile, avocado, cucumber, serrano, and macerated strawberries. The Momonoki Chicken Wings followed with a crispy 12-hour brined chicken glazed in caramel fish sauce, Thai chili, and scallions. Sweet, savory, crispy... these disappeared quickly. The Dashi Pesto came with pan-seared Hokkaido scallops, dashi-infused pesto, blistered cherry tomatoes, and Parmesan. Then came the Gochujang Pork Belly over mashed potatoes with mozzarella and scallions. The pork belly was tender and flavorful, but those mashed potatoes deserve their own review. Seriously, the softest and creamiest mashed potatoes ever. Ever. Finished the savory side with the Miso Bacon Carbonara - creamy miso-Calabrian chili carbonara with crispy bacon, Parmesan, and scallions. Rich, comforting, and another dish worth coming back for. Dessert brought strawberry lychee ice cream and sesame creme brulee. Both were pleasant, although the savory dishes were definitely stars of the evening. Signed up for an event and left with a list of reasons to come back. Momonoki understood the assignment and those mashed potatoes the extra credit. Shoutout to the cool and amazing staff!

    I originally bookmarked the Rosemary Room for brunch, but we ended up coming for dinner instead. We…read moreordered the beef sliders, truffle Parmesan fries, and I had the hibiscus margarita. Everything was really good. The food was solid, and the pricing felt fair for today's world--not cheap, but not outrageous either. Honestly, since it's inside a hotel, my expectations weren't sky-high, but the food pleasantly surprised me. I'd definitely come back, especially to try their brunch. The reason it's four stars instead of five comes down to the atmosphere and staffing. The restaurant sits right in the hotel lobby with no walls, so you hear everything--hotel guests coming and going, music playing in the lobby, the TV from the bar, and general foot traffic. If you're looking for a quiet, relaxed dinner, this might feel a little overstimulating. Also, our waiter (who was great, by the way) seemed to be doing the job of about three people. He was taking orders, bringing drinks and food, running payments, and even delivering room service. The poor guy was working like he owed the hotel money. On a Friday night, they could definitely use more staff. That said, the food was good, the service was kind, and I'd still come back--next time probably for brunch.

    I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was disappointing from start to finish. I gave…read moreReunion Kitchen 1 star across the board because the atmosphere, service, and food all fell well below expectations. The service was by far the worst part. We sat for over **20 minutes** without anyone coming to our table--not even to offer water. I eventually had to get up and ask someone to send a server over. What made it even more frustrating was watching other parties who arrived **15-20 minutes after us** receive water immediately and have their orders taken before anyone even acknowledged our table. After finally waiting another 10 minutes to receive our water, we had to track down our server again just to place our food order because no one returned to check on us. By that point, we had been sitting long enough and were more than ready to order. To make matters worse, we ordered an appetizer of coconut shrimp about five minutes after placing our entrée order, but it never arrived. After we had already finished our meals, we asked to cancel it, only to be told that our server had never entered the order in the first place. Unfortunately, the food didn't make up for the poor service. It lacked flavor and was very underwhelming. This experience was frustrating enough that I cannot recommend Reunion Kitchen. I initially wanted to believe this was simply an off day or an inexperienced server, but after hearing from two other people I know who described nearly identical experiences, it seems this may be a recurring issue. One thing that left me especially uncomfortable was seeing guests who arrived well after us receive prompt attention while our table was repeatedly overlooked. I can't say why that happened, but it certainly made us question whether we were being treated differently. I sincerely hope the restaurant looks into its service standards and ensures every guest is treated with the same level of respect and attention.

    My family and I have been eating at The Ranch Restaurant for about 10 years now, so believe me when…read moreI say this place never disappoints. The service is always on point, and it's truly a great experience from the moment you step through those doors. My favorite starter is the Ceviche Trilogy. It's one of their most popular appetizers, and for good reason because it is absolutely delicious. You get three different ceviches, and every single one is so flavorful and fresh. It's always been one of my favorites and has never disappointed. This summer, I also ordered the seasonal oysters for the first time, and WOW. They were so fresh and delicious that they're definitely up there with my favorite starters now. The three sauces that came with them were all so good, especially paired with the fresh lime. Such a simple dish, but everything together was perfect. For my favorite entrée, it has to be the Cowboy Steak with the cheesy scalloped potatoes. This is technically a dish that can be shared between two people, but honestly, it's more than enough for two! I always get the steak medium rare, and they cook it perfectly every single time. It's juicy, tender, and beautifully pink in the middle. The scalloped potatoes are also SO good and pair perfectly with the steak. My favorite side has always been the cream of corn. If you're a fan of sweeter corn, you have to try it. It's creamy, sweet, and just really comforting. And now, we have a new favorite dessert: the sticky pudding with ice cream. I've tried every dessert on the menu, and after trying this one on my most recent visit, it is by far my favorite. The warm sticky pudding with the ice cream is just so good. Definitely don't skip dessert! The ambiance at The Ranch is also part of what makes the experience so special. It has that beautiful, moody, low-lit atmosphere that feels elegant and upscale without being overly stuffy. It's not super loud, but it's not so quiet that you feel uncomfortable either. It's just the perfect environment for a nice dinner and conversation. The Ranch really is a full experience from beginning to end. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just want to have a really good dinner on a random weekend, I would absolutely recommend it. After 10 years of coming here, I can confidently say I'll never get tired of it. This will always be one of my favorite restaurants!

We've been here years ago and thought it was ok. We decided to come back because my friend got me a gift card. Overall, the service, food, and drinks were excellent. We each ordered a cocktail. They were pretty well balanced so you didn't taste the alcohol much. We ordered two appetizers and dessert since we weren't that hungry. The beef carpaccio was delicious. It had white alba clamshell mushrooms, wild arugula, black truffle, and pecorino romano. They could have done a lighter hand on the salt. The ahi tuna was one of the specials and it sounded good with the avocado mousse and tangerine slices. It was fresh, zesty, and bright. The crème brûlée' was a nice finish for our meal. Glad we had our gift card since it cost a little over $100 including tax and tip. Would definitely come here again for special occasions.
