I have heard about this place and passed it many many times in the last year and finally decided to…read morestop in last night for dinner with my son. I will be back back next week . 10/10. Food was amazing. Atmosphere was great, music wasn't too loud but enough that it wasn't silent in there. Staff was friendly and attentive and they clearly know what their doing. Now the food, the FOOD. Best wings I've had in a very long time. So fresh and fall off the bone. I will be coming back for wing Wednesday! I ordered the steak frites and my son got the kids Mac n Cheese. Steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare and the Demi glaze was delicious. His Mac n cheese was a top contender. I was shocked. So flavorful and clearly homemade. Then we get to dessert. I almost screamed when I found out one of my absolute favorite places in PB directly supplies their dessert counter. Absolutely amazing. I hope this place continues to get the attention it deserves and I will be recommending it to people in town! Thank you ladies for an amazing meal and experience

First (and last) Time…read more Our visit was around 1:00 pm yesterday. It was my first time at this restaurant. Our party of three was seated but not greeted. When I asked the woman who seated us if they offered vegetarian food, she simply said she didn't know. The dining room was not busy, but there were seven tables occupied and one waitress. She didn't take our orders for 20 minutes. She never stopped to say anything, like "hi, I'll be right with you" or even one word. She never looked at us. I was finally ready to go across the street to La Cocina, which has the best Mexican food in Ramona at reasonable prices, but one of the two people I was with didn't feel like following me. When she finally came to our table, there was no smile, no apology, nothing. She didn't talk, unless she was responding to a question. Although there were vegetarian meals on the menu, the menu itself said they had another menu with vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free options. I asked for one. Apparently, the two employees there forgot it existed. The food was mediocre and not worth the high prices. Poor, unfriendly service plus expensive, over-priced food equals not returning to this restaurant. I'm actually surprised this place is still in business.

A friend asked if I wanted to have breakfast when I was in town and at first I refused to go there but he assured me it wasn't the same kountry kitchen as before. I had the ABC omelet and fresh fruit, the omelet had lots of cheese and bacon, the eggs were fluffy and there was plenty of avocado. The fruit was fresh and there were lots of berries at the bottom of the cup. We also went back a couple of days and had the steak and eggs, the steak was cooked perfect and the country potato's were cooked in beef talo and were perfect. You have to try the fresh squeezed orange juice they squeeze it with a machine right in front of you. Can't wait to go back.

[TL;DR: Served inedible food I did not eat, charged in full, zero attempt to make it right.]…read more I very rarely leave negative reviews and don't nitpick or blast places over small issues - and you can check my other reviews to verify that. I had heard great things about this place, which makes it even more disappointing. The only positive was the quaint country ambiance, including a nice old mural on the wall. Service was a bit slow, but it was a busy Sunday morning, so that's understandable and not part of my rating. The food, however, was inedible. I should note here that I came in quite hungry and with a specific hankering for a greasy chicken fried steak and eggs, so I was in a very easy to please state. I ordered the eggs "over medium," and the eggs came out with raw, runny whites and were also cold. The toast didn't arrive until 5-10 minutes later, so everything just sat there getting colder. The "steak" was mostly fat and gristle. The first couple of bites I ate were gristly but doable with help from the gravy - but the third bite was a giant glob of gristly fat that I couldn't even chew - i spit it out and that's all I ate. The hash browns tasted like frozen unseasoned potatoes with only a patch of sear on the outside while the bulk of it was mushy and pasty and gross. Of the whole meal I basically only ate my toast plus a bite or two of each thing on my plate. I left feeling sick to my stomach. After dropping off the food (and later the delayed toast), our server never checked back. No refills, no follow-up. When she finally returned, she asked to clear my very full, barely touched plate without any acknowledgment. I had to volunteer that the food was inedible. The response was dismissive and rushed, with no effort to understand the issue or make it right. An offhand "sorry about that" was offered while walking away, followed shortly by the $60 bill. The complete lack of accountability and concern was frankly abhorrent. This was one of the worst dining experiences I've had, and I won't be back. I would have left hungry except that I was queasy from the gristle and paste.

The service was great, the vibe was certainly small town - I used to come here all the time when I…read morelived in Ramona (at least once a week) but since moving away to the east coast we still make the trip just for the food! They have a very vast menu which I think limits their quality of ingredients but that's the only reason I give them 4 rather than 5 stars. HIGHLY recommend if you're in the area.

Now that we live in Ramona, we have been venturing out and trying the different eating establishments. This place is like Cheers, where everyone knows your name. It has a great vibe and decent prices. The plates are HUGE and definitely shareable. I have been here a few times now, and I always really like what I order, with one exception: I am not a fan of their biscuits. I have tried on a few occasions and they do not do it for me. Today's was really not palatable. You can tell it was overworked and not cooked properly. You could still taste raw flour. It stuck to the plate it was on; that's how poorly cooked it was. On the happy side, we had great breakfasts. I ordered something different today, their Au Gratin omelette. It tasted great, but did not taste anything like Au Gratin potatoes. I would order it again. We also had chicken-fried steak with gravy and a chorizo scramble. Both were tasty and super filling. I understand their cinnamon rolls are out of this world. Since I rarely eat sweet things, I have yet to take a bite. Hoping next time I go out with friends, someone orders one. There is outdoor seating, and the establishment is dog-friendly. So bring Fido along and enjoy a meal. *Please excuse the photo. I forgot to take one before I started eating my omelette. You can see how dry the biscuit was in the next photo.

Although, the experience with Rise + Shine was bad enough that I will never go back. PRO TIP: when you are out of one of the significant ingredients in a $10.smoothie, tell the customer before you make it. Instead of making it and then saying, " hey I'm out of the Spirulina, so there is none in it." Upon drinking the smoothie, I realized that one of the frozen ingredients had freezer burn YUCK!. I'm so glad I did this trial run, before I subjected any of my clients to this hot mess.

Hidden gem in Ramona…read more Thursday nights at Ramona Family Naturals are one of those things you almost don't want to tell too many people about. Dirty Confetti sets up on the patio and plays country while everyone settles in with something cold to drink and something good to eat. No big production. No velvet ropes. Just live music, a laid-back patio, and a crowd that seems perfectly happy to have found the place. I went with the steak sandwich--tender steak, grilled onions, greens, sauce, good bread, and a pile of seasoned potatoes on the side. Nothing precious about it. Just a damn good sandwich. They also have a great selection of local wines and local craft beer, which makes the whole thing feel even more like Ramona. Good food. Cold beer. Local wine. Live music on a Thursday night. Sometimes the best places aren't trying very hard to be cool. They just are.
