   It was all very well done. A bit of a shock to pay upon entering but it made it easy in retrospect. Great variety of food. Was all flavorful too. Will go back there as often as we can!

   I took my Wife here to celebrate her Birthday & we were very disappointed. It was Restaurant week, so the menu was limited, however the food was subpar. We both ordered the Ossobuco & the meat was dry, & had no taste at all. There was no seasoning on it whatsoever. My Wife sent hers back & got the seafood pasta. The waitress didn’t say it was spicy, so again it was another failure. It was too spicy to eat. The best part of the meal was the French onion soup. We also had 2 drinks @$18 each, which seemed a little excessive as well. We will most likely not be going back to this restaurant for a long time., if at all. Overall a very disappointing experience. Thanks

   I was really excited to try this place but I guess the ownership changed recently? Some of the food was pretty good but 85% of it just felt cheap and old. The pita bread was hard as a rock, all baked goods were heavily processed and manufactured. Especially those chocolate croissants. Hot food and sushi was okay. I understand that it’s a buffet so quality can only be at a certain level but for a 75 dollar price tag per person it’s a little lame. The other thing was service. We paid and tipped 18% at the front yet didn’t get any help whatsoever. No refills, no bussed plates. Never a hey how is it going. Literally nothing. I would also walk around with a bottle of bad sparkling every 20 minutes and not clear tables or provide drink service if I could get paid for it too. Pitiful

   Really disappointed. First time we ate here the food was fantastic. The second time, not so great. The third time, fair. This time, really poor. The food was cold and clammy. The taste, not good, not good at all. I spoke with other patrons and they said the same thing. This dining experience was really poor. It seems to get worse every visit we make. Four times, at $300 a visit and the 94th Aero Squadron has struck out. Love the atmosphere, but I am seeking value for the money. Time to find a new venue.

   Cold welcoming, rushed order, Osso Bucco came with no sauce, couldn’t eat the dry meat. Took it home to add sauce. We are sad because at one time this was a real gem with outstanding food and impeccable service. Had many celebrations there. Since covid it’s never been the same. We were hopeful that things turned around, but not so lucky. We won’t be back.

   We had a business dinner with ten people and the 94th was superb. The ambience was excellent and the service responsive and friendly. It was very easy to chat and get to know our new partners at this restaurant.

   The most food I’ve ever seen on a buffet, even Hagen-Dazs ice cream and Ghirardelli chocolate and caramel syrups!

    We had a wonderful experience at one of these restaurants in another location years ago and were excited to see one during our visit to San Diego. This is a very attractive place outside but it really didn't have as much of the rustic French countryside farmhouse vibe inside as we had seen elsewhere and not much ambience in general. The floors were sticky, the server was not very attentive to refill drinks during the meal, etc, although there were very few diners in that evening, and the food was very average and extremely expensive for what it was. I'm willing to believe that it might have had to do with being the day after Christmas and maybe the normal experience is better but ours was a disappointment, sorry to say. It was my birthday present.
