Restaurants in Paso Robles

“Food was great! Soul food is deluxe, try it all. My friend said best chili he ever had. Generous portions, crispy not greasy, wonderful customer service, thanks Dubs!”

“A most wonderful experience. The food was unforgettable!”

“What an incredible dinner! The food was some of the best I've ever eaten, highlighting the bounty of the local farms. One dish I'll never forget was an egg custard with the silkiest texture possible, topped with corn that tasted like summer itself and bacon with the perfect amount of smokiness. The wine pairing was fantastic, with wines from local producers and from afar, always perfectly complementing each course.

But what really sets Six Test Kitchen apart is the accessibility of the team and the space. Because they do a lot of the prep right there in front of the counter, there was a lot more opportunity to have a conversation about the food, learn about the techniques, and hear the story of how each dish came together than in most restaurants of this caliber. A world class meal, with smaller-town pacing and friendliness. Highly recommended!”

“Amazing pastries!! Highly recommend! Great quality coffee as well!”

“muy buen servicio y muy rica la comida”

“Enchanting, spacious, and whimsical grounds to enjoy their delicious wines. If you’re looking for a kid-friendly area winery, this is the one! Lots of room for playing, plenty of other kids, and they even have some games. Live music is a nice touch.”

“National selection of vegan cheeses plus local!”

“What a beautiful winery! The wine is superb, the owners are fabulous and I learned some new things even! Such a lovely experience and by far one of the best quality lineups of wine I’ve tasted in years. Highly recommend!”

“An umami pairing experience with LXV Wine and Bakersfield’s Noodle Bar. LXV owners and the chef from Noodle Bar matched the wines and meals perfectly👌🏼Pairings with LXV Wine is a must do experience!”

“Just had an amazing experience at Eberle. Kirk, our tasting guide, possessed a wealth of knowledge about the vineyard and its history. He could not have been more entertaining, informative, and just generous with his time and tasting! Thoroughly enjoyed all the wines- all the reds have elegance and depth- but are less in your face than some California reds,but so smooth, lovely and enjoyable. We will be back!! In the day and age when everywhere is reservations only and super pricey, Eberle is a breath of fresh air- with years of quality to back up their stellar reputation.”

“Delicious and creative plant-based food combining great flavor with heart. I love the spicy Buffalo Chicken sandwich, the black bean taquitos, the Avalon burger with arugula and vegan Gouda cheese (!), and the avocado taco! Want to try everything on the menu! 5-stars for flavor, creativity, service, and location! Love Ziggy’s!!”

“My spouse and I visited Calcareous in mid-March for a Cabernet tasting that was out of this world. We tasted a variety of wines from different vintages that were all outstanding. Each was beautifully made and are a great value for their price point. Our host, Nate, explained the wine characteristics, production details, and winery history. He expertly answered endless questions about the local wine community and other wine trivia. The whole experience was just great.”

“Great Irish ☘️ bar, perfect location, right on the square downtown Paso. After a day of wine tasting, we walked in & relaxed with their pretzel bites, which had a creamy dipping sauce(yum). We ordered a burger and their Mac n cheese. Both top-notch.”

“very good place to eat. food is very good.”

“My favorite breakfast place great service, great food, I had been been going here for years, now when I come into town to see my girls, I take them here for our daddy/ daughter date, it’s our special thing to do”

“Awesome location, beers, food and staff!”

“Love this place the food is delicious the cheese steak sandwich has been the best in town so far. I also like that the price of things didn't brake the bank either.”

“A wonderful spot for traditional Japanese. The sushi bar is fresh fresh fresh w-delicacies that aren’t always easy to find, the cooked foods were delicious and savory. Service was perfect and the price was fair. Run by a woman who took it over from her father. What more is there to say!? Go!!!”

“Excellent food. Try the pan seared Salmon. Delicious.”

“We had a truly memorable anniversary dinner at The Restaurant at Justin. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. The food was exquisite—highlights included the halibut crudo, lamb, pasta, and a series of creative and delicious amuse-bouche selections. The kitchen was also incredibly thoughtful and accommodating of our dietary needs.Dessert was equally impressive, providing a perfect finale. What truly elevated the evening, though, was the wine pairing—easily the best I’ve ever experienced. Each selection was thoughtfully chosen and complemented the dishes with precision and elegance.The service was just as outstanding as the food. The servers were warm, attentive, and deeply knowledgeable. They introduced each course with care, explained the ingredients and preparation beautifully, and ensured perfect timing throughout the meal. Their genuine hospitality made us feel truly welcomed.

Chef Rachel’s artistry with fresh ingredients shone through in every dish, and truly justifies the Michelin star. The harmony of flavors and presentation reflected a high level of craft and creativity. A phenomenal experience from beginning to end—highly recommended, and can not wait to go back!”

“Great wine, people & entertainment 😊🍷”

“We had the full belly breakfast sandwich and it was amazing. The deli is super clean and all of the staff are friendly and very accommodating. The owner Heidi was also working so that was a huge bonus. We will definitely be eating there again.”

“My home away from home! Always interesting beers rotating through the taps! If you're happy and you know it 🎶 have a beer! Occasionally visited by food vendor trucks. Otherwise, have a pizza delivered!”

“This should be a stop on everyone’s list when going to Paso Robles today’s wine. The regenerative farming techniques are incredible. Great to see the animals working on the farm. Staff is very well trained. There is an EV hook up with a trickle charge, which was super helpful to give us a few miles until we got back to Paso to charge up.”

“Don’t leave before stopping here”

“Dining at Somm’s Kitchen is so much more than just a meal, it’s a unique, interactive experience that lingers in your memory long after the last course. From start to finish, everything about the evening was exceptional.

Ian, the mastermind behind the concept, is an incredible host. He welcomes you with the warmth and enthusiasm that makes you feel like you’ve just stepped into his home. His deep knowledge, storytelling, and ability to connect each wine and dish to a personal journey made the night not only delicious, but also engaging and fun.

Each course was thoughtfully curated and expertly paired, highlighting ingredients and wines in ways that were both surprising and delightful.

We’d go back in a heartbeat and can’t recommend Somm’s Kitchen enough to anyone looking for a dining experience that’s intimate, elevated, and thoroughly enjoyable.”

“Great tasting experience with Stan. Exotic wines and incredible ports.”

“Best food ever tried!! Owner is friendly and service exceed expectación”

“Wow! What an experience. Gorgeous winery. Gorgeous views. Delicious wine. Great service. The charcuterie here is next level as is the veggie platter. We had a beautiful day sitting on the terrace. Looking forward to going back.”

“Cute little winery! Staff is very friendly. Did two wine flights that paired AMAZINGLY WELL with the salmon! The salmon was by the far our favorite!! Seasoned so well, paired so well with wines and incredibly delicious!!!”

“Everything!! Give it a try 🍕🍻🍷”

“Amazing Rhône wines. Best on the Central coast.”

“Moe's Pizza is by far the most outstanding pizza that has ever been in Paso Robles The pizzas are heavy full and they're well worth every cent you spend! highly recommend for any event or even dinner!”

“Incredible wine and beautiful winery!”

“Spectacular view with my fav sparkling wine and most awesome live soulful rock & roll music with Donna Lu & Matthew Kim 5 stars... must visit venue”

“We had a great time here last weekend and our host, Leslie was amazing and very friendly. We tried both types of tastings and while everything was tasty, our favorites were the bourbon and the barrel aged vodka.

We just enjoyed our bourbon bottle this weekend and look forward to going back to grab a couple more.

Thank you for the fun experience!”

“Great view, lots of wine options, and great staff. Thank you Cassie for answering our questions, and making our wine tasting experience fun!”

“Really enjoyable tasting experience on a Saturday morning!

We were a group of 4 looked after by Carly for a tasting. The tasting room is new and luxurious, with thoughtful spacing amongst groups and nice views over the vineyards. Importantly, the wines are a treat to try, with the progression through varietals well done. another highlight was the service, which was warm and fun!

We were lucky to get a tour of the underground cave with Tyler, which includes a tasting room and barrel storage. It’s an amazing space and Tyler was a lot of fun

Thanks to the whole team for a lovely day out!”

“A girls weekend in Paso started with a patio tasting at Lone Madrone. Our server Mary walked us through some history and info on their dry farming and organic practices behind their wines. We tasted five wines and their English Bristols cider. My favs were the 2022 Estate Zinfandel and the 2022 Old Hat. I loved the fact that the winemaker's son designed the gorgeous label for the Zin, featuring a wreath of the cover crop they use in their organic vineyards. I got a bottle and once it's empty, I have plans to put some twinkly lights in it.

It was disappointing that although the winery confirmed with our organizer that they had lunch available at the time of our Friday visit (we did have a reserved tasting reservation), it turned out that they were not serving lunch that day! But it ended up working out - we drove down the road and had an outstanding lunch with great cocktails at Barton's Kitchen.”

“Great variety of Italian staples and local artisan foodstuff.”

“Made to order. Delicious. We had the special: 2 calzones (huge), 2sm salad and 2 soda. This was perfect for us. -🏍 from El Paso, Tx”

“Food was decent, but the value for breakfast is not good. Coffee is SEVEN dollars, a bottle of beer here is 6 for comparison. Only 1 piece of toast with my omelet? The place was ok, but I felt like I was being nickled and dimed. I was able to walk down the street and get Amazing coffee for $3”

“The food was fabulous! Great family atmosphere and very personal service. Love this place ❤️”

“knowledgeable, friendly staff. Great selection of local wines. Fun atmosphere”

“Loved it...especially that they always have a smile for us!”

“Our family has been going to just baked for years, there desserts are beautifully presented and delicious! I recently got married in Big Sur and with such a remote location we had a difficult time locating a bakery that would deliver a wedding cake and desserts. I went to Libby thinking it would not even be an option. She happily with out hesitation said they’d take on the task!! Our cake and desserts turned out perfect, she took a huge weight off of my shoulders!”

“Gorgeous cake for a high end wedding at Croad Winery in Paso Robles this week. Looked and tasted amazing!!”

“Such a wonderful place to spend time. Delicious and hospitable”

“This place is amazing from the wine to the staff to the views. Such a friendly laid back place. Can't say enough about Croad my favorite winery”

“GOOD FOOD OLD STYLE HAM BURGERS AND FRIES AT A KILLER PRICE!”

“We wanted a place in Paso Robles near the freeway that we could stop and have pizza on the way home from seeing Hearst Castle with our family. Well not only did we find a pizza place, we found a really good one and from the amount of business they where doing on a Wednesday evening I would say many people agree! It is locally owned and operated by friendly, helpful people who know how to make great food. Now if only they would open one in the Fresno/Clovis area.”

“Totally delicious food! Very fresh, nice menu. Small but very nice wine list. Wish I lived here instead of visiting from Michigan.”

“That accommodated 25+ for my moms birthday breakfast! They were so amazing and the food was 5 ⭐️ as well as the incredible service! Thank you all so much!!!”

“One of my favorite places in Paso! Everything you order is fresh and delicious! My favorite is the salad sampler!”

“Great food and hospitable service. I highly recommend. My only suggestion would be to turn down the music, and don’t aim cleansing spray toward customers while they’re eating. But don’t let that stop you from enjoying the terrific food. I suggest the Loco Roll.”

“It’s one of the best wine bars in San Luis Obispo county offering a wide array of domestic and international wines by the bottle or by the glass. I find the prices to be competitive and the bartenders very knowledgeable with their craft. I highly recommend this lace to anyone who wants to sample local Paso Robles and international wines. Don’t take my word for it, come and visit soon.”

“Great breakfast and the lady’s are great!!! Just passing through from Georgia”

“I love this place!

I have never gotten a bad server. The food is good dinner food.

Plus, it is so cool to take my son and watch planes take off. Definitely, it's one of the best spots in paso for a simple breakfast.

Kid-friendliness: My son lives this place.”

“Friendly staff, a pup to greet you and reasonably priced for a flight. I’m a sweet cider fan and all they have is dry but the slushy (watermelon flavor) was fantastic! I’d personally like smaller tastes and more to taste than bigger tastes with fewer to select. More like 6-2 ounce than 4-3 ounce. Just my personal preference!”

“The food and the service was excellent!”

“the lady taking my order was very kind, the ordering went great got the food in a good timely manor. and let me tell ya folks. this is a hidden gem in cheyenne. food taste amazing. Thank you for the menu as well!”

“Great service. Delicious food. ❤️”

“We found this jewel today and we’ll definitely be back! Clean, comfortable seating (inside or patio), friendly staff and great food! It’s tucked in a corner in the shopping center with TJ Maxx & Lowe’s. Fish tacos, chips & salsa - YUM!”

“Rossy, Great Conversation! Great Server! Love it!”

“My grandparents, Ray Bob and Jane Collins were weekly patrons. Loved going here for lunch when we visited from Memphis. Best restaurant around Paso. Hoping Bonnie and Victor are doing well. Miss seeing everyone.”

“Love the food and the people are extremely friendly. It's worth every penny! The service is great!

Just stopped by again and enjoyed an excellent meal. The food and the service combined with genuine hospitality is a business model that can't fail. I love this place!!!”

“I met with both owners; they were well-versed on their wine selections both white and red. I purchased several bottles including white and red. My favorite was Gemeny Vineyard Petite Syrah 2020: full body, low tannins. Rich nose and flavors.”

“Made a pit stop at Paso Robles, and I thought, some hot noodle soup sound good for a cold weather. I was kinda skeptic 🤨 thinking it’s a Thai restaurant and not Vietnamese. But it did not disappoint. The broth alone was tasty. A single serving can feed two. And I like how they served on the side, generous amount of basil, Mung bean sprouts, lime, and jalapeño (for added kick).”

“Loved the wine and the labels! Love all the reggae bands too.”

“The wines are amazing, but Justin's service was impeccable. We're Tolosa club members and we got the club prices on all wines we purchased. Love it! Tasting we're covered as well.”

“Great variety of Italian staples and local artisan foodstuff.”

“Crimson Cue is the probably the best pool hall I've played and will be playing at in the central coast, service is just amazing everytime, the beer selection is great too you will not be left thirsty that's forsure, they also hire catering vendors to provide delicious food for their loving customers helping out and supporting small businesses. Highly recommend you take your shot on the 8 ball there.?”

“finally tried for the first time and it was amazing! BEST donuts in North County! very clean, super friendly and good luck picking because there are so many FRESH choices!”

“best sandwiches ever, I'm very picky”

“Nicora is a fantastic winery. The staff is incredibly friendly and very, very knowledgeable. The wines are outstanding. I would highly recommend a visit to Nicora.”

“Great birria tacos 🤤 went there with my family and they’re so good 😋 definitely recommend !”

“Easy access from the de Anza hike/bike trail”

“Everything on the menu here is great! My favorite items are the Breakfast burritos, Tacos, tamales and Pan dulce. The pan and tamales are some of the best in town! Great place to grab food to go. Everyone who works here is always pleasant and nice!”

“nice, inviting Tea House. Employees are great. Tea's that I have had so far....loved them all.”

“My friends and I had an excellent time tasting Glenna's wines. All of her wines are very well made and delicious. She gave us a unique personal experience by sitting down with us and explaining the origins of each wine and how she makes them. Highly recommend!”

“super amables, y todo muy rico las paletas de frutas secas son mis favoritas pero todo esta muy rico.”

“Eh, it's not what I was looking for. Also, $30 for 3 tacos and an Agua fresca is pretty wild. They're like fancy tacos and it was fun to try but I would never, ever go back. Also for $8 tacos the service could be a little more friendly but I get the clientele seemed like rich boomers so they might just not have it in them to be friendly.”

“The sandwiches are excellent!!! So are the chocolate chip cookies and blueberry scones!!! We loved this place so much we came here 4 days in a row!!! Sadly , we leave for home tomorrow and will miss coming here. I highly recommend it!!”

“I miss this place. They have a good foods.the best in town”

“After a day exploring in Morro Bay fam bam wanted Ramen on way home so we stopped into here. Place was empty but it didn't deter us. Service was good. People started dining in after sunset. Food was good and fast. We'd come back if we were in the area again and craving Ramen :)

Kid-friendliness: Neutral setting not loud or obscene pictures.

Wheelchair accessibility: Table height for wheelchair seems acceptable.”

“Very good meals both my wife and I recommend this place. I had chili verde my wife had carnitas. Service was top notch.”

“This winery was stunning and I really enjoyed how fairy tales it looked! Definitely a 10/10 experience!”

“This is our first Winery Tour ever, and Austin Hope was the first winery of our day, so we didn't really know what to expect. Upon arrival, were warmly greeted with a glass of white wine, then escorted to a corner cabana with the backdrop of the vineyard! At first, I was a bit hesitant seating outside because it was March and this year has been unusually cold, but the hostess assured me that they had heat lamps and blankets. Sure enough, with the beautiful flame heat lamp and the soft warm blanket, we were comfortable and cozy, and settled into a wonderful experience. I forgot who was our server, but she was very knowledgeable about the wines, and also personable and caring. She make sure that we were comfortable, and our young daughter had sparkling water in her wine glass so she could (kind of) participate with us. I highly recommend their Charcuterie tray, which has a great assortment of wine, meats and nuts. I love how our server explained the wine at each pour, then leave us ample time to enjoy the glass and talk. She also brought us handwarmers to keep our hands warm. There were so many small caring touches that truly made our first winery tasting experience so wonderful. I'm not much of a wine person, but I ended up loving their wine too. After our tasting at Austin Hope, the other wineries just couldn't compare. Thank you very much for a first winery experience that I will never forget. I will definitely be back!”

“Consistent! And the Best! The staff, service, quality of food and atmosphere are first class! I'm a resident of Paso Robles. This is absolutely the best restaurant in town! I would highly recommend.”

“Food was great! Soul food is deluxe, try it all. My friend said best chili he ever had. Generous portions, crispy not greasy, wonderful customer service, thanks Dubs!”

“We've been coming here so often that they started remembering what we liked to order. The stout is good and not heavy so I can drink a whole pint and not be dizzy in the slightest. The cheese curds are awesome with the ranch sauce they make. I usually get the wagu burger and add bacon/avocado to the burger. They cook it medium rare and it melts in your mouth. The chicken strips are well seasoned. We love the tacos. The establishment has only been open for a short while and I really already like coming here. We usually get a couple krowlers to go of the stout which they can do with any of their beers on tap.”

“The food is unique. They have options of getting small servings of dishes in groups of trios and quartets so you can taste a larger variety. The salads and brussel sprouts we ate were too good. The carrot soup was super yum. The aioli served with the fries was to die for.”

“Great variety of Italian staples and local artisan foodstuff.”

“One of my favorite spots to go in Paso. Great service, atmosphere, food and cocktails. The appetizer with mushrooms is amazing. Highly recommend.”

“Loved my omelette, fresh fruit, biscuit and coffee this morning.”

“We just had Dinner after not going for a long time and we had the pizza and the bacon bleu burger but the best thing was Tyler he was an excellent waiter server. The dinner was great the atmosphere was great it was a good idea to go there much better than the first time when they first opened highly recommend you go back if you didn’t like it the first time. Thanks Tyler you were the best!!!”

“We stopped here for lunch and loved it. We had the watermelon mint and regular margarita and we both agreed that while both were tasty, the watermelon was the winner (they use fresh juice and agave and you can tell these are very well made). For the tacos, the fish tacos with mango fell short for us, so we ordered extra of the short rib tacos which were divine - so juicy and tender. We will definitely return in the future to try some of their other choices. Shoutout to our waitress Kylie who was super sweet from the very beginning!”

“Everything!! Give it a try 🍕🍻🍷”

“Such a wonderful place to spend time. Delicious and hospitable”

“Consistent! And the Best! The staff, service, quality of food and atmosphere are first class! I'm a resident of Paso Robles. This is absolutely the best restaurant in town! I would highly recommend.”

“muy buen servicio y muy rica la comida”

“My first experience with their Costa Rican Beans: I woke up this morning in Atascadero to a black lab licking my face a child generated chaos, just like any other day. I hear the coffee grinder grinding away in the kitchen and then the un deniable sound of the high speed fruitless spin that comes with running out of beans. I jumped into my pants, hastily walked to the truck to retrieve a little black bag and filled the hopper. I made no adjustments to the machine, pushed in on the portafilter, ground coffee began to gracefully descend from above. I tamped the grounds with a slight rotation of the tamper, engaged the porta filter into the machine and depressed the two shot button. A velvety waterfall descended from the porta filter streaming into my weathered mason jar, a cloud of creama floated above my espresso and then I proceeded to add a deluge of microfoamed whole milk. I then grabbed my cup and floated through the chaos to my recliner, sat down, pulled. The lever, took a sip of this heavenly nectar, closed my eyes and found myself gently swaying in a hammock somewhere in a rainforest in Central America. I could hear the birds and the monkeys playing at symphony just for me I could smell the sweet humidity that follows an equatorial rain, and for just a moment I had peace.”

“We have the ability to buy Justin Isosceles at home in WI so that particular wine brought us out here to Paso for the first time. The curves & hills you need to drive out to the winery on Chimney Rock road are well worth it!
You are greeted at the door & shown to your table. Karley was our wine educator for the day. She shared with us dark, delicious reds that were all estate grown and a crisp, yet smooth Chardonnay from Monterey county. We snacked on some focaccia while enjoying the beautiful scenery & mouthwatering wines. We have a few bottles that will highlight our table back home.”

“Eh, it's not what I was looking for. Also, $30 for 3 tacos and an Agua fresca is pretty wild. They're like fancy tacos and it was fun to try but I would never, ever go back. Also for $8 tacos the service could be a little more friendly but I get the clientele seemed like rich boomers so they might just not have it in them to be friendly.”
