My recent dining experience at the the Strange Beast was very pleasant. The bartender and serving staff were very helpful and personable. 5 star! I ordered the spicy tuna roll. It had some ingredient in the rolls that was not easy to eat. I'm not sure what it was, but the roll would've been much more enjoyable to eat with julienned cucumber instead. The price of the roll was ridiculous. $17? Not worth it at all. I won't be going back.
Last visit was a Friday evening shortly after opening so I'm not sure that all of the normal staff was up and running at the time. Also customers stopping our server to ask a whole load of questions while he was on the way to get our eating utensils, and him obliging them while we wait 5 minutes + looking patiently at our food in front of us. It's not rude to say I'll be right back to help you.
I travel a lot for work and go here every time I'm in Ventura, the staff are really friendly and passionate about what they do and the food is incredible! Best burgers I’ve ever had and have dined here with friends who all agree. Great atmosphere too.
