I came here on a Friday around 11:45 a.m. I made a reservation through OpenTable, but there was…read moreplenty of seating available, so I don't think walk-ins would be an issue. Valet parking is complimentary, and there isn't any self-parking. When I checked in with the hostess, she gave me the option of sitting in the front outdoor patio or the back patio. I chose the back, and I'm so glad I did because the view is absolutely beautiful. I also had my dog with me, and they were incredibly dog friendly. They brought her a dog bed and a surprisingly extensive dog menu with some really great options. We ordered: *Lobster Tacos : Three generously filled tacos served with salsa and guacamole. They were absolutely delicious and loaded with lobster, topped with fresh avocado. *Rancho Burger: Easily one of the best burgers I've had. It was cooked perfectly, and we added Swiss cheese. They even cut it in half for my friend and me to share. The fries were fantastic too, crispy and somewhere between steak fries and thin-cut fries. *Shepherd's Pie (Dog Menu) : The menu listed it with beef, but they accidentally brought out the chicken version. Since my dog is allergic to chicken, they immediately apologized, took it back, and made a fresh beef version. The customer service was excellent, and my dog absolutely devoured it. The portion was generous, and it looked fresh enough for a human to eat. The service was phenomenal from start to finish. Our food arrived in less than 20 minutes, the views were stunning, and the menu had so many tempting options that I'll definitely be back to try more. Overall, this was a fabulous lunch, and I highly recommend it.

Their food quality is also very good. Of the several times we've been, we've struggled with food temperature not being warm enough about half the time. Servers are kind, but can be inconsistent. Again I would say half of our visits we've felt forgotten. My biggest irritation was during our latest visit, in which families with children were seated next to us not once, but twice. This was disturbing because on the booth side of the table where my mom and I sat, we felt the movement of squirmy children from the table next to us. Highly recommend more attention to table selection by the host staff. Given the classiness of this place, I find it silly that I'd have to go out of my way to ask for hot food and to be seated only around adults. We will be taking The Pony Room out of our rotation for a while.

It makes it the perfect spot for groups when everyone is craving something different.

It was a vegan Ceviche and the fish was not missed. My friends ordered really cool cocktails and raved about them. My one friend said that this is the only place she can get this particular cocktail and that she comes here just for it. I ordered 2 tacos (Mr. Asparagus and the Baja fish taco). Both delicious and they came with housemade potato chips (which I thought was weird until I tasted them). I was so full but I couldn't not eat the chips because they were so good. One friend ordered the Quesabirria and she didn't love it. It was very strange as it was wrapped in fried cheese. They also ordered the other tacos and loved them.

Honestly, 9/10 for a veggie taco because the filling was well seasoned and dressed. The asparagus taco was unfortunately a different story. The asparagus was prepared well, crunchy on the outside but still tender when you bite into it. However, it was not seasoned as well and paled in comparison to the Yogi. The shrimp taco was okay. I think they were very heavy handed with the toppings and dressings and did little in terms of the actual preparation of the shrimp. The chicken taco on the other hand was DELICIOUS. The meat was seasoned well and so juicy. The pineapple salsa was the perfect touch!

Surrounded by a great group of people, the atmosphere was fantastic, but it was the creativity and execution of the chef's cuisine that became the main topic of conversation throughout the evening. We ordered a variety of starters and entrées, sharing everything family-style so everyone could sample different dishes. Every item had its own unique flavors, beautiful presentation, and attention to detail. Honestly, every bite was memorable. Our favorites included: 1. Maytag Blue Cheese Soufflé 2. Burrata & Stone Fruit Salad 3. Organic Grapefruit & Avocado Salad 4. Bluefin Tuna Tartare 5. Tempura Soft-Shell Crab 6. Mafaldine & Guanciale Puttanesca 7. Miso Roasted Black Cod 8.

The service was equally impressive. Lino our server took great care of us, offering perfect recommendations and creating a warm, personable experience from start to finish. Celebrating both my birthday and a recent promotion here made the evening even more special. The restaurant surprised me with a thoughtful celebratory treat that was a wonderful touch. And I can't forget the amuse-bouche that started the meal, it was phenomenal. Check out the photos, especially the watermelon sorbet. An unforgettable evening with outstanding food, exceptional service, and a truly memorable atmosphere. Highly recommended!

We did quite a bit of research and were pretty excited as well. The hosts when we walked in the door were quite lovely, professional and hospitable. They walked us to our table, a bit of small talk and away they went. Our server approached us, pushy from the moment he opened his mouth, and an arrogance to him that was so off putting. He informed us about the Ala carte and the 3 course menus and went on his way. The service lacked any level of hospitality, was dry and cold, nothing I thought we would be getting in a place of this caliber, so we thought. The food was amazing, as long as you are in no rush to eat. We asked our server twice about the food and simply waited. There didnt seem to be any type of management around otherwise they would have talked to us early on. If the manager was the gentleman pouring people's wines,maybe you spend less time pouring wine and more time speaking to your guests...just our 2 cents.
