It was my 39th birthday and every restaurant was full but this one. They sat us very quickly and was ready to take our order. They gave us bread and water to start. We order a Pizza with pineapple. Wood fried type. It was good! But what made it super memorable was our hostess Sean. His demeanor and warm welcome. We felt as if we met a friend. He had a diet coke pitcher that surprised us! We thought it was water! Diet coke on tap , in an Ice Cold pitcher?! YES PLEASE! Please relay this to Sean. You made my family and my experience welcoming and fun. Thanks Sean. He is an example of a person who loves his job and the people he meets!

Passing through highway 76, we stopped at Pala Casino for a light dinner. 'Bar Meets Grill' seemed the best option. We had a nice martini cocktail followed by a Margherita pizza and a Caesar Salad with Cajun Shrimp.  Both were delicious and well prepared.  Hopefully we will back in the area to try their delectable steaks.

Went here and ordered the Spaghetti and meatballs, Garden Bianca, and Wedge. All the food was good but that spaghetti and meatballs dish was fantastic. Definitely worth a try.

This is the 3rd year in a row that our group of friends have visited Bar Meets Grill to celebrate 2 birthdays. After our first visit and having Tiffany as our server, we request her and with good reason! Without a doubt, she is the BEST server we have EVER had. She has a great personality, but, besides that, pays attention to detail and is always on top of our needs! We tell everyone what an awesome experience we have had every visit! The food is always served with great presentation and is always very tasty! Tiffany is definitely an asset to your restaurant, and we want to make sure she gets her kudos from us! We will be back next year, if not sooner and will definitely be requesting Tiffany! Thank you, Tiffany, for always making our celebration a memorable experience!!

My wife and I have been to BMG a handful of times and we always enjoy it. We enjoy the fact that you can have a nice casual dinner before a concert or you can dress up and celebrate an occasion. The food is consistently great, the drinks are on point a d the service is excellent… thanks Tiffany!

Limited menu and no draft beer. But the food was great and the service was excellent. I had the caprese and chicken parmesan. The best I've had in a long time. 👍😋 I wish I took pics of the dishes.

Spicy Cadillac margarita was spot on 👍🏻 and the meatballs were delicious if you get the spaghetti and meatballs you’re not going to have room for dessert unless you share. Everything I’ve had here has been great the pork chop is great and they have pizza that is really good too

Been to this place a couple times before and it was great but will not be returning after this. Sat down with my boyfriend and my dad for a nice dinner, my dad and I decided we wanted to order a glass of wine and I happily handed our waitress my ID (I’m 22 years old). She then explained to me that I could not order any alcohol because my ID was vertical. I was very confused because I had never had a problem buying alcohol anywhere else with my vertical ID (including this same restaurant in the past) and because my ID doesn’t expire until 2025. She brought her manager over and we explained that I had been to this restaurant before and been served with this ID just fine but she insisted that it was a policy that “as far as she knew” they had been enacting for the past two years. Very disturbing experience considering my ID says in big, bold letters “age 21 in 2023”. My ID is a government issued California state drivers license so I’m not sure how that’s not a valid form of identification to buy a glass of wine at a restaurant.

Absolutely best experience ever! Our food was spot on! Our server “Tiffany” was the most attentive and polite and professional. She made the whole experience worth repeating. (she has served us on previous occasions) Thank you Pala and kudos to Tiffany!

We were here on a week night and it wasn't very busy at all. We we did expect a bit more with the meal since it's a bit pricey. We still enjoyed meeting our friends here. The waiter was very good and he worked hard. The salad was very good!

Even though the burger is not on the menu, it is available! Just ask the waiter. Whenever I dine here, I feel like I am truly eating luxury. Garlic confit, high grade steaks, delicious breads, and friendly wait staff. Even if it's busy, they make the effort to make you feel like the only customer there. The menu is geared towards seafood, so beware any severe seafood allergies.

Dietary restrictions: I have a pepper allergy and shellfish / seafood sensitivity- Chef Carlos made me a custom pasta dish that had a red sauce and intense complex flavor that moved me to tears. It feels silly to say, but it was so moving. I usually have to eat only red meat at nice restaurants because of the seasonings used in sauces or marinades, but chef Carlos went the extra mile to make sure I had a luxury experience.
