   Perfect place for a fancy date. A rare gem in Oxnard. Every food served is paired with aged wine.

   Although expensive, the food and service was just okay. Nothing remarkable...nothing horrible either, you just expect more at these prices.

   Something happened in our order was not put in to the kitchen for over an hour. When the food did arrive, one of the entrées had an ingredient substitution that was not disclosed. The food was just OK. The experience was disappointing. The waitress had messed up our order three times. Including telling us that the dessert was comped and then only bringing one dessert for the four of us to split. I’m not sure I would return for dinner after this experience.

   What a unique experience! Each menu item is paired with 1.5 oz of wine to complement the dish. We were able to sample a variety of wines we never would have considered; from the steel-barrel finished wines to the really sweet dessert wines. We had a fabulous waiter and attentive service staff. The bread was delicious, as was the mushroom bisque, the caesar salad, the duck leg, the Argentinian crescent stake with potatoes and the sous-vide lamb with wild rice. We had the pistachio dessert which was quite interesting; a stack of flaky round pastry topped with chocolate and filled with a creamy but not too heavy pistachio flavor. The apple dessert with coconut cardamum ice-cream and little apple spheres tasted like fall. We did note an extremely rude couple sitting next to us, demanding fast-food type service, but the staff/waiter handled them so professionally we were amazed. The woman kept interrupting the waiter, ordering food, and demanding food be served immediately, particularly the soup. As the waiter was still answering the woman's questions, the man asked the waiter if the soup was ready yet - and the waiter politely stated that he hadn't left the table to put in the order as he was still answering the woman's questions. She had ordered the soup a sentence before the man asked if it was ready. I would have brought the soup and poured it on their heads - but our waiter was ultra-polite to them. Impressive! We had a wonderful birthday dinner.

   The service was subpar as we explained to our server about a critical allergy and he told us to look at the menu as it was all spelled out there. It was not. One of the side dishes we ordered had the allergic item on it. The menu did not say anything about it. In addition, the sever was absent most of the time and did not adequately do his job. The food over all was good but the meat dish my wife ordered was not cooked properly and was tough. It is unfortunate that such a premier establishment did not live up to its reputation.

   This is a wonderful experience. The food is exceptional and the favors are exquisite. It is not everyday I enjoy such quality that is worth its price.

   The customer service is outstanding!! For our wine tasting Katie was remarkable. Informative, friendly and professional. At the restaurant, our server Micayla was phenomenal. Very attentive and helpful in our food selections. Every single thing we ate was delicious!! The Crescent steak was especially delicious!! Cannot recommend this experience highly enough!

    Great food. Farm to table. Delicious flavors and fun plating. I wish the portion sizes were bigger. For the price, the portions could be a lot bigger. Also, the tables are quite small which makes it hard to keep all the food and beverages on the table. Nonetheless it is a fun and clever menu with tasty, beautiful food and great pairings. Love it every time I go, just I have the same complaint with the portion sizes and table sizes.
