Corkage fee of $40 is too high especially when they accidentally doubled it. My Caesar salad was swimming in dressing. The vegan soup was outstanding as were the ribs and the swordfish. We're regulars and were a little disappointed.

There was a wedding going on during our dinner. The base was turned up and it made the restaurant feel like we were dinning outside a club. Also, we specifically asked how thick the swordfish was and they showed us a half inch thickness. When the meals came out, it look like they had cut the fish in half. It seems like they ran out of fish and cut it in half because we ordered two.

We really enjoyed our dinner with our friends. Our waiter was great and remembered that it was my friend's birthday. We all loved our food and the ambience is gorgeous. The chocolate chip cookie dessert was phenomenal.

We were very disappointed with the quality of of the food. Had party of 4 all with different entrees 3 of the 4 of us disliked the food. One had risotto with sword fish. Risotto had weird taste and she couldn't beat it. Another had duck that had such a spicy mole sauce that she couldn't finish it. I had a paste dish with shrimp. Shrimp was fine and pasta was mushy and tasteless Server kept removing plates before people were done Five Star prices for a one star meal

Duck was overcooked. Leg was burnt and very salty. Rather loud and noisy. Wouldn't seat us until reservation time 10 min wait) even though table was open. Expensive for what we got.

Excellent service at a quiet time of day on a Monday. Food was fresh and tasty. Cobb salad was huge. On making the reservation on OpenTable, I had indicated it was a birthday celebration. We received a happy birthday card and two free servings of chocolate pot au creme with candles. The server San Happy Birthday.

Food is usually superb as is the atmosphere. Service quality depends on the staff… possibly understaffed when we were there, but overall it’s a go-to place for brunch or a nice local time out. We often hit up the outdoor scene for live music, drinks, and the best ambience in town.

We were seated at a table back by where the bathrooms are-nothing like being stuck in a corner for lunch. The waiter was not good. Didn't bring my friend the right wine that she ordered and acted as if it was her fault ( which it wasn't because we all listened when she ordered). Service was very slow. I asked for a side of a balsamic dressing with my salad and he literally brought me a side of balsamic vinegar. I just dealt with it at that point. Very slow service. The waiter has a little trouble with his English ( sorry but true). Other than that, the setting at the ranch is always a treat and the salad was good but just like their golf has become, it's overpriced.

Can't believe I ate here a few years ago and didn't realize this was where they filmed the Hawaiian Hideaway for the Saved By the Bell Hawaiian movie. I'll have to go back some time when I am visiting CA and take a closer look at things. The breakfast I had there was fresh and well plated.

The place, food, and service were great. However, I would give the valet 1 star for leaving all the windows down on a luxury vehicle while it was parked just 10–15 feet away from someone cutting grass. Extremely thoughtless.

When I asked about it, the valet said they left the keys inside so the car wouldn’t get locked. But what’s the point of valet service if you’re leaving the keys inside and all the windows down? I wouldn’t trust them with my vehicle again. I didn’t realize my car was being offered to the public for free while I was dining inside.

Thanks to the open windows, the entire dashboard was covered in dust by the time I returned.

Great views, food is ok, but not worth what they charge.

The experience my family and I had yesterday was completely unacceptable. We will never return, and I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. We arrived and waited about five minutes before anyone came to valet our car. When we entered, the hostess didn't greet us with a hello or any warmth. We made this reservation for my mother's birthday, and when we mentioned that, she barely murmured a “happy birthday.” The service we received from our server was especially disappointing. He was rude and clearly rushing us, even though we had a full hour before the kitchen closed. He repeatedly reminded us about the time, which made us feel pressured. He noticed the birthday card and gift on the table but said nothing. He also forgot to place our drink order, so the drinks arrived after our appetizers. When my sister sent her sandwich back because it was cold and soggy, he didn't apologize or offer an alternative—just walked away. We had to flag him down again just to get a new menu. At that point, we still had around 20 minutes to place another order, yet he stood by the table impatiently. When my sister asked for another minute, he rudely responded that he couldn't wait. Then he threw a napkin on the table and walked off. Throughout the meal, he never once checked in—not even after my sister received her new dish. When he eventually brought a small birthday ice cream with a candle for my mom, he said, “I don't know whose birthday it is, but here you go,” before setting it down. It was not only disgustingly dismissive but insulting. At no point did he attempt to interact with us or show any sense of hospitality. For a place that prides itself on service and hospitality, this experience was far from it. We were treated with disrespect on a day that was supposed to be special, and we left feeling disappointed and offended.

Wonderful new seasonal menu taking full advantage of the onsite vegetable and flower garden. Chef Kyle is amazing!
