“Beautiful wine in a rustic welcoming setting. This is a must see💕”
“Some of the best Chilaquiles I have ever eaten!!! The service is excellent. We will be back.”
“An unforgettable dining experience and easily one of the best meals we’ve had.
Every course was beautifully presented, creative, and packed with flavor. Sitting at the chef’s counter made the experience even more special—we loved watching the team prepare each dish with such precision and passion.
The service was exceptional from start to finish, and the sommelier was outstanding. The wine recommendations were thoughtful, perfectly paired with each course, and truly elevated the entire evening.
We celebrated my wife’s 50th birthday here, and Six Test Kitchen made it a night we’ll always remember. If you’re visiting Paso Robles and appreciate fine dining, this is an experience you shouldn’t miss.
Highly recommended!”

“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 wife and I really enjoyed our tasting experience at Tablas Creek. Our wine guide was Ray and he did an incredible job spending time with us just talking about their wines and educating us on everything Tablas Creek and much more. So pleasant and the wines were verrrry good so that helps too!”
“Very up and coming Sports Bar, good food, good drinks, good people.”
“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!”

“Such a great spot, came on Friday evening and the setting is just wonderful! Live music and ordered one of everything on the menu and seriously couldn’t pick a favorite. Everything was so well prepared, and delish! Lovely atmosphere, food, wine, and the owners are fabulous!”
“We enjoyed the “NEW and improved” Pour House this afternoon! 🥰music, beverage selection and thoughtful stage and dance floor layout…..but the hydraulic, sleek new, unstable, teetering bar stools with equally precarious tables covered with stretchy fabric were an annoyance from the start.
One of us is unsighted and we seek out establishments that are SAFE for him due to the ever-looming fall risks.
We opted for the wicker bar chairs which snagged my clothing…….
We have patronized the POUR HOUSE from its start when it was in the Firestone Walker “hood”.
Please consider safety first, as we are musicians that have performed on the many incarnations of the PH stage, we hope the PH continues to be a comfortable (safe) place for all who seek a pour!!!”

“We usually share our reviews on Tock or Cellarpass, but we wanted to note here how special Torrin is if you’re ever visiting the Paso area. We are always impressed by both the winemaker and his work, which is why we joined the club. We are big fans of Lagom, but we equally enjoy Banshee and Akasha. Aly is also one of the main reasons we look forward to each visit—she is truly a treasure. The wines speak for themselves, but it’s the welcoming and personable people at Torrin who truly win us over.”
“Somm’s Kitchen was the highlight of our trip to Paso and set the bar so high that you’d need to remove and raise the roof. Ian creates an incredibly inviting atmosphere to celebrate the wine and food experience. Listening to how his mind goes from imagining a dish to actually creating it is so cool and fun. We love a chefs tasting experience and Ian created one that stands apart in a very good way.”
“Our favorite vineyard of the trip! Booker was breathtaking! The views, the space, the people, all top tier. Margarite (not sure on spelling:/) was incredible. She made us feel so welcomed and comfortable. We shared stories but she also gave us space to enjoy and talk. Highly recommend the terrace tasting. The wines were incredible. My only complaint is being from Utah and not being able to join the club, therefore missing out on some of the better wines available. I get the exclusivity and lure to join but maybe exceptions for those that can’t get wine shipped to their homes! I would’ve left with more bottles and a much heavier suitcase!”
“Came here of Sunday morning. The young lady working was so friendly and welcoming. The wine was really good. Their reds were some of my favorite. The gernache was awesome. I also enjoyed the Zin. The wines were membership worthy.
One thing that made the experience even nicer was the outdoor patio. It was very kind friendly. Had nice seats with a fire.
I definitely recommend checking this place out. I bought a bottle of their holiday wine for Christmas. It was a perfect visit.”
“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.”
“One of Paso Robles most famous wineries. A bit touristy, but I think it's a must visit. Good wines and great ambiance. This 2nd visit was just as good as the first. Strictly by appointment only. Beautiful, large property with great views of the hills. Lots of tables outside and some inside as well. Tasting is $50 for 5 wines plus a bonus pour of our choice of some off menu wines that were already open. They are red heavy. All the wines were pretty decent, with the off menu wines being the standouts. They waive the tasting fee if you buy 2 bottles, regardless of price per bottle. Service was pretty good. Our wine guide was nice and informative. Highly recommend”
“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.”

“Omgggg I just love me some chicken tenders from Jack in the box. I’m from Georgia and we don’t got Jack in the box but everytime I visit my Mee Maw and Papá up here in Paso Robles, I love coming to Jack in the box and getting delicious food. I tried the Smash Jack this time and it was so good 10/10 and the workers were so quick and attentive.”

“Great sushi spot in Paso Square! They are open later than other local sushi restaurants. Plus the fish is fresh and delicious. Served seaweed salad and pickled cucumbers as a side with pickled ginger. A huge plus on my end!!!!
Staff is friendly and this is a great spot for later night food mid week!”
“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.”
“We RV all over the United States and one of our favorite meals is sushi. So we tried Goshi , great selection of cooked and sushi type meals…. super nice people , great sushi chefs on the counter. highly recommended good value for the dollar.”

“We're not locals, but we stopped in at poke places like we usually do when we travel. Everything was fresh and delicious. And all the toppings and protein powders were great too. Delicious fresh food, friendly staff, fast service. Small bowl 12.99; medium bowl 15.99; large bowl 18.99. I recommend 👍😋”
“Hole in the wall restaurant but food is good! We got tacos, a molcajete, and some agua chiles. Delicious and cheap! I also ordered a michelada, it was tasty. The taco meat was crispy and full of meat! They also gave us plenty of salsas and chips. Will be coming back”
“This is a great little restaurant at the airport. The dining room looks out into the taxi ways so you can watch aircraft coming and going. We have been here for breakfast several times. The food is great, large portions. The scrambles are delicious, good sausage gravy, fluffy pancakes. Friendly service.”
“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).”

“If you want a good sandwich, Savage Spirits & Deli is the place to go. I went in there late after they closed the kitchen expressing my dismay that I could not find a good sandwich in Paso Robles. The young lady working behind the counter said as long as you don’t want it heated I’ll make you any sandwich you want. She proceeded to make me an Italian sandwich that I must say is one of the very best that I’ve ever had. Highly recommended!”
“Great view, lots of wine options, and great staff. Thank you Cassie for answering our questions, and making our wine tasting experience fun!”
“The guy that usually works in the evening drew he is a hard worker very friendly and has a great attitude. I highly recommend you promote him as a manager. He goes above and beyond for customers and great smile way to go, Andrew.”

“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!”
“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.”

“Small delicious sliders whether it was beef, chicken or fish. The calamari was crispy with a light breading. The hummus plate included kalamata olives and homemade marinated cherry tomatoes. The shoestring fries were thin and crunchy, just the right amount of seasoning.”

“Man, way to step it up.
I went there before and was always slightly disappointed with the coffee. It just felt like warm water with flavors. I'm a black coffee person, so added flavors always seems like a over kill.
I went there today...not knowing it had changed owners and that first sip almost made turn my car around. It was GREAT. I could still taste the coffee, but the flavors just made it better.
Your service was quick and efficient. The young man was personable amd kind. A perfect start to my day. Keep that sign down... I can't wait to come back and see what YOU create. You got a local as a customer now.
Update: Years later and this is still a great coffee stop. Thanks for the perfect Peppermint Mocha.”
“I absolutely adore this coffee shop! Great location, wonderful atmosphere, run by talented people. It is evident that Mackay, one of the owners, paid great attention to detail and design as well. This has become my husband and I’s new coffee place. Five stars all around!”
“We found Proof and Gather breads at the Atascadero farmers market. The demi loaves were perfect for dinner that evening. We also visited the bakery in Tin City and picked up a loaf of Classic and one of Apricot Walnut. They had pizzas there also that looked very good.
On our last day in the area we picked up a loaf of Jalapeno Cheddar at the Los Osos farmers market.
Their bread freezes well.
Check them out, all of their selections are delicious.”
“We stayed at River Lodge and had 2 meals at Ciao Papi. My husband ordered the pomodoro pasta and he really liked it. Great sauce. O prefer the burger and it was fantastic. They put giardinara on the burger (pickles spicy vegetables). Loved it! Wine selection was good. I also ordered a mocktail which was great. The seating is entirely outdoors, but they have heaters and blankets. Nicely designed.”
“We stopped in Paso on our way to the coast, and decided on Wingstop for dinner. It was pretty busy in the shop, but the service was pretty quick, and the food was really good. There are several tables to sit at, and several tvs which were playing a variety of sports games. We opted for the Boneless Meal Deal which was a great value. 4 choices of wings and some fries to go with it.”
