    Food was excellent, my only complaint is we had to flag down our server every time for a refill on bottomless mimosas they need more staff or just leave the champagne bottle at table it didn’t feel like bottomless on how many times we had to track someone down for a refill

    The Sunday brunch at Ventana Grill is awesome. From the bloody Mary and mimosas with various juices to all of the great food it is worth the price. The view of the ocean is great and there are lots of food choices. My favorites are the crab legs, peel and eat shrimp, omlette bar, Mexican food with homemade tortillas and the waffles with strawberries and whipped cream.

    I love Ventana. I just think some things were overlooked. We got there right at opening because I know they fill up quickly so I think they were still preparing some items. We were the only ones there and my cocktail and the soup starter took a bit (I was probably just hungry lol). Service was great- very attentive. Food was delicious. View was amazing and we were sat right by the window. Our table and the ledges were not wiped down. Other than that it was great.

    Our server, Alyssa, was just fabulous, attentive and friendly. 3 out of 4 of us ordered the Halibut, 2 from the menu and 1 from the Halibut Special. All 3 halibuts were quite dry. Not good.

    Took friends to Ventana Grill for lunch. The magnificent views are wonderful in the daylight and the lunch menu offers something for everyone. The service was great and we all appreciated the lack of the usual crowd. It was perfect!
