Libertine Brewing Company - (Near San Luis Obispo, CA)

Marcelo Bermudez We had dinner at Pulcinella Ristorante in Newbury Park last night, the new spot that took over the former Cedros location. It was a great experience from start to finish. The service was excellent. Attentive, warm, and well-paced without being intrusive. You could tell the staff cared about getting things right, which goes a long way. The food was outstanding. I had the mushroom risotto, rich and well-balanced. My wife ordered the veal scaloppini, which was tender and beautifully prepared. Our kids had the chicken piccata and a seafood pasta dish, and both cleaned their plates, which says everything. What stood out to me is that we’re in a relatively sleepy part of Thousand Oaks, where high-quality restaurants aren’t always easy to find. Pulcinella hits the mark. The menu, execution, and overall experience feel intentional and elevated, without being pretentious. We went as a family this time, but we’ll definitely be back for date night. It’s the kind of neighborhood restaurant you want to support because it raises the bar for what dining out here can be. Highly recommend giving it a visit and supporting a local business that’s clearly doing things right.

Joyce Rodriguez If you like sushi, sashimi and grilled hamachi Kama, grilled salmon, and more. This is your go to restaurant. And if you’re senior the will give a discount. Very friendly staffs. Best to call for a reservation because it’s busy.

Miss Clay They are so sweet! You’ll the place when you go, I would highly recommend this place with all my heart.

Megan Lucas I visit this place every time I come to Mariposa. Sometimes multiple times in the same trip. The food is amazing and the staff is so friendly. Kim is so kind to us! We are only here for the holidays and she remembers us. The ramen is the best ramen I’ve had in the west coast. Must try. Add as many eggs as you like!!

Rasa Sri Crudo in Palm Springs was a fantastic find! We ordered the meat plate and it was absolutely worth every penny. It’s generously portioned and easily enough for two people; just add some warm tortillas on the side for the perfect meal. I’m usually not a huge pork fan, but their pork was outstanding: perfectly crunchy with a delicious honey glaze that made it irresistible. Definitely order the beef medium rare; it comes out tender and flavorful. We also tried the burger, and it was seriously delicious. Overall, excellent value for money with high-quality ingredients and bold flavors. Highly recommend this spot!

Carol Montgomery Brosnac, MA, LMFT Just went here for my friends birthday. We had the Brussel Sprouts, Waygu Sliders and some Empanadas. All were really good, but the Brussel Sprouts were the best. Served with Bleu cheese, figs and bacon, they were really yummy! We also had the special birthday cocktail and a Castaway Cay. Both were delicious and refreshing. Our server was so attentive and had great suggestions. They even gave my friend a complimentary dessert because it was her birthday. We have been several times and we are always pleased with the service and cocktails.
