    It was an absolutely beautiful day at the Rancho bernardo Inn… we had made a reservation and we’re set upon our arrival with one of the best tables in the house, our view was extraordinary! Brunch on the Veranda is always a special occasion. We had an out-of-town guest and met with our family to enjoy the time together. I had the best Belgian waffle I’ve ever eaten, and the Benedict looked amazing as well. Every single person cleaned their plate in our party. We can’t wait to return! Service was above and beyond, and the ambience is always magical.

    Took my brother/sister-in-law for dinner and catching up. They were impressed with the view (who isn't), the food and the music. Only slight disappointment were some rambunctious kids with a large group. Seems the patio was their playground making it challenging to hear conversation at times. Is what it is and that's not the norm in my experience but that was disappointing.

    Beautiful view. Ambience amazing for outdoor dining. Busy resort on a Saturday and summer weekend. Valet parking convenient. Food acceptable for the price paid.

    This Friday lunch was prompted by a neighbor’s suggestion. We were impressed by the presentation and quality of our food selections.

    The service is very critical. They favor members of the club. Plan on a long wait even if there’s no one at the restaurant if your not a member of Rancho Bernardo Inn

    The place is lovely, but the service was disappointing :-( we were seated, the server brought us water and ignored us for the next 35 minutes. We asked his helper for some paper napkins and never got them :-( we brought our own wine and the corkage fee of $35 was never mentioned :-(. Luckily the food was excellent, but the frustration with the server affected our event :-(

    Our server was fantastic! Food was good but pricey!! What’s up with the 18% service charge? Beautiful but maintenance touches could be made. Bathrooms needed attention too. Nice but not worth the price being charged. Thanks!
