Delicious amazing food! Great vegan options too. Who would have thought Santa Paula would have such gourmet burgers at an affordable price! read more

I've been following Chef David's FB page for awhile now and seen all the different specials they post and the post always looked so good. I had seen the Whiskey Shrimp and Crab Burger as a special and I had missed it. Well, today they had it and I finally went and tried it: it was AMAZING!!! The angus patty was nice and juicy, and the crab and shrimp were cooked so well. The seafood wasn't rubbery or old tasting. I will definitely be a returning customer! I hope they make this a permanent menu item! (Or a weekly special) read more

This is such a hidden treasure in Santa Paula. Every single thing we have ordered from here has been delicious!

Had the Surf and Turf Burger and fries followed by the chocolate chip cookie cake. This place was awesome. Coming back in a few day. Chef David was a great guy. Going back to try the Flat Bread. Can't wait read more

One of the best burgers in Santa Paula! This place was a much needed addition to Santa Paula. My family and I ordered two burgers and a salad and the entrees were delicious!! I cannot say the same for the sides... for the two burgers we got French fries, a simple request I had thought. These fries were a joke though, essentially warm soggy potato sticks. Maybe steer away from the French fries and go for a side salad or fruit, it's hard to mess those up. I also think the lady on the phone could be more friendly. I asked for cheese on my BBQ bacon burger and was promptly re-read the title of the burger "BBQ bacon CHEESE burger" was the response. You could've just said "okay" instead of trying to make someone feel dumb... sorry I don't know your menu by heart, with your attitude not sure I want to.. read more

Whether you get a burger, sandwich or soup, Chef David never disappoints! Check out his Facebook where he posts the days soups and specials!

Just found this little great little place in downtown Santa Paula. Food is great. We order the mushrooms burger and the Good Earth Sandwich. Definitely recommend it. Oh and it's a cool corridor with some unique street art. read more

I've only tried the mushroom burger so far (it's so great I keep ordering it!). They don't skimp on the mushrooms! It's great. And the fruit salad is so fresh and tasty. You can tell they try to use only quality ripe fruit. I love that they have outdoor tables so that I can bring my dogs. read more

My favorite is the roasted tomato soup. The ginger butternut squash soup was delicious too. All of the salads are fresh. The grilled cheese has bacon and tomatoes on it. Delish. Great service too! read more

Decided to try this new place in town as I've been seeing photos on IG. The small restaurant is located through a walkway surrounded by works of Art on the walls! That alone was exciting. The small restaurant was quaint and clean. The dining tables weren't fully set up due to Covid-19. We were told our order would take about 25 minutes. We ordered at 11:30am and arrived around noon but still had to wait for our order. While waiting we were told they ran out of hummus which was one of the main ingredients and the main reason two of my co-workers ordered the good earth sandwich. It was a bummer because the restaurant was only open for one hour before they ran out. They did substitute the hummus with avocado and asked if we would like a meat substitute. I ordered the turkey melt. All the ingredients were delicious bacon, avocado, tomato, cheese, turkey. The bread was a bit soggy. I wish it was a little crispier. The fries it came with were perfectly seasoned thick and crispy but soft in the middle. I got so see dishes my co-workers ordered such as the patty melt, good earth sandwich, and a chicken Caesar salad. The prices are vary reasonable. I would return again to try a cheeseburger. read more

As a event coordinator with over 10 years experience and working with some of the best caterers in Ventura County, I have never been met with such an unprofessional and rude owner. Chef David lacks professionalism and being able to work with other vendors in a cohesive manner. They arrived 45 minutes into cocktail hour, claiming they got lost. They were the only one out of over 150 people to get lost. The majority of cocktail hour had no appetizers and then we were an hour late with dinner and had to change the whole timeline to make it work. Later when ask to cut the cake, they said it wasn't their job. While they did cut the cakes, they made it clear they weren't happy about it. At the end of the night, I asked where they would like the plates put to be rinsed, and I was told "that isn't his job". I've never worked with a caterer who didn't rinse plates. When I ask him to move his things, so I could take care of rinsing all the plates for him, I was told "figure it out yourself". Then, him and his team proceeded to the bar, for drinks, while they watched us take care of it. As he was leaving, they then stole a neighbors orange road cones. As to why, I have no clue. I would not recommend this company to anyone inquiring about catering services. I would hope this saves future couples from having any rude behavior, mistakes, and or any stolen goods from their event. read more

I discovered this place through a friend and now I eat here whenever I'm in town! I love how chef david is always experimenting and improving his food. All of his food is creative, delicious, and different from any other burger place I've been to. My favorite burger is the jalapeño popper burger because it has the essence of jalapeño without being overly spicy. If you follow chef david on Instagram he's always posting specials which are also very good, like the lobster Mac and cheese burger or the goat cheese bison burger. I hope he expands some day and opens more locations. read more

I had heard wonderful reviews about this place so we finally decided to give it a try today. My husband got the surf n turf burger and I got the grape & mixed berry salad. My husband's burger was definitely worthy of 5 stars. He gushed over every bite, and let me take a taste as well. Would definitely try this again. Unfortunately my salad was 1 star worthy. While grape is in the name unfortunately there were none in my salad. It was also missing the candied walnuts. The menu made no mention of cucumbers and bell peppers but my salad was loaded with them. Normally this wouldn't be an issue, but I was expecting the listed ingredients. The vinaigrette was 75% oil, 0% flavor other than oil. The mixed greens as well as the berries were so warm that the gorgonzola was melted throughout. Hot + salad = no thanks. We will definitely give them another try, but I'll avoid the salads and opt for a burger or sandwich instead. read more
