   Service was the worst we’ve ever had, very rude waitress. Food was good.

   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 table had an absolutely beautiful view. Loved looking at the Pacific Ocean and the many pelicans flying nearby. Our waiter, Dan, was excellent We will definitely see y"all again soon!

   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!

   Spectacular dinner! We arrived a touch early for our reservation and stopped at the bar for a bottle of champagne. Service was a little slow but friendly. When we went to our table, we were delighted with a spot right on the glass so we could take in the beautiful ocean view. We started with shrimp cocktail, flautas, and calamari. All three were incredible, and the homemade tortillas were next level delicious. For dinner we shared the enchiladas suizas And the chicken mole. The mole sauce had a really great blend of flavors, but the enchiladas were out of this world. Our server was darling. She was friendly and fun and offered great recommendations. All around an A+ evening.

    We've eaten lunch here a number of times and are always very happy. This was our first dinner in a while. The service was great but the time wait for our dinner was way to long. Even the server apologized a few times. We'll be back. But mostly for lunch in the future.
