    I think the scallops were missing and the menu said Bowtie on line but I think the post at site is penne
    JT T.

    Our server tonight was Rashelle. Excellent. Had the chicken Masala , and the shrimp and scallops with pasta cream sauce. The Caesar Salad was perfect. Bruschetta, for starters was hit. Coffee and dessert. I had small concern and I addressed it. will be back again.

    Well done appetiser.

    Had a nice birthday dinner here for a relative. The food was good, (I recommend the spare ribs.) My wife enjoyed her bisque. The calamari appetizer was on point. Drinks were well done. A little disappointed that they make no provisions for birthdays (at their prices, perhaps a cupcake and a verse of Happy Birthday?). Special events require special treatment or will go to where it is so.

    Wait time

    Me and my girlfriend went to eat there 4-10-26. They sat us at a table and we sat there for close to 15 minutes without a single person coming to bring us water or anything at all. So we walked out. We walked down the street and walked back and passed the restaurant and saw that our table wasn't even touched. The napkins still laying on the table. The next day we went to the downtown farmers market and decided to call in an order, they put me on hold for over 20 minutes until I had to hang up. The WORST service I've ever heard of!

    Overall great experience! The restaurant itself is beautiful and our waitress provided excellent service. Food was delicious as well. Would def recommend the potato gnocchi pasta

    Dinner special-sea bass with charred broccolini and a white bean purée

    Was in town for work, and this place came recommended by the Marriott, and I'm glad I came! It's located DT Turlock, and has a nice patio with white linen table cloths. The waitress was really friendly and always has a smile on her face! For an app I got the spinach salad, it comes with creamy goat cheese, candied nuts, dried cranberries, pickled onions and capers! The flavors all went nicely with each other. For my main, I got their special, which was sea bass. It was served with charred broccolini and a bean purée, and the fish had a sweet sauce on it. It was good, but maybe a tad too sweet for me. I would definitely come back again, the next time I'm in town!

    One of the best braised beef meals I've ever had. Great service and great cocktails. 10/10

    Tiramisu

    Happy New Year! We had the pleasure of celebrating New Year's Eve together by dining at Bistro 234. Luckily we had made reservations because they were very busy. The atmosphere was festive with couples and larger groups dressed to celebrate the end of another year. We were seated promptly and proceeded to order pre-dinner cocktails. I then ordered the spinach salad and my husband had the meatballs as our starters. Very good! For dinner I selected the sea bass which was a special and am I glad I did! I absolutely LOVE sea bass and will almost always order it if it is available. This sea bass was served on top of a risotto with asparagus. Divine! My husband had the short ribs which he raved about. Even though we were both pretty full from our meals, we split the tiramisu for dessert which is always a treat! Our server Shawn was a delight. So friendly yet very professional and efficient. We did not have to wait long between courses which was nice. Bistro 234 is one of our favorite places to dine especially when we are celebrating a special occasion or just want a nice date night venue. We can't wait until our next visit!

    Mushroom sandwich and fries and salad
    mia k.

    This place is in a nice location in downtown and usually fairly easy parking when I drive through there, might be a little more packed on weekends, but plenty of side streets have parking as well. I came here with my cousin on a weekday, the place was fairly empty with only a few other tables occupied. The restaurant is very well decorated and there is plenty of seating inside and the patio. We sat at one of the high top bar tables and enjoyed people watching. The food is delicious. I got the mushroom sandwich which is a tad messy to eat but so good I didn't mind. Cousin got a salad which she enjoyed. Pricing is fairly typical, though more than I usually like to spend for a casual lunch.

    Started with wine and beer.

    We went with our dog. Outside seating with white linen table cloths. Quiet and nice atmosphere. We ordered onion soup, iceberg lettuce salad and braised short ribs. Food was excellent and service was great with class. I'd recommend this restaurant for anyone.

    Charcuterie board
    Sarah G.

    Came here on a work trip and it was incredibly good!! We were appreciative they could fit our party of 10. Our server was very nice and helpful in choosing wines. We had a charcuterie board, olives, gnocchi, half chicken, Caesar salad, and cioppino. It was all to die for. Probably the richest and most flavorful gnocchi I have had in my life. I cannot recommend this restaurant more highly!

    The food is good. The service is just OK. The menus need to be thrown away. They're old and filthy.

    Bernard was extremely attentive. Had a great experience overall. Service, Drinks, food & atmosphere…read more10/10. Would definitely come back & recommend to all my friends. Best server I have come across in the Central Valley.

    We decided to get out of town for a date night and ended up at Roth Social. After reading some Yelp…read morereviews mentioning unfriendly or inattentive staff, I have to disagree. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted right away and promptly seated (I had a reservation, but honestly didn't need one around 8:30pm--there were several tables open). For drinks, I ordered the 1915 Elder Fashioned ($20) and my wife had the Peaches and Dreams ($20). Both cocktails were perfectly crafted and absolutely delicious. We started with the Argentine empanadas served with bone marrow and chimichurri--two good-sized empanadas for $24. Great flavor and a solid way to kick things off. For my entrée, I ordered the hanger steak cooked medium--it came out perfect. It was served with Roth Fries, which might honestly be the best garlic fries I've had in a long time. Fresh garlic, Parmesan, parsley... just done right. The steak was topped with chimichurri and came with two dipping sauces--everything worked. My wife ordered the Kung Pao Street Noodles with grilled prawns ($36), and she loved it. Overall, great atmosphere, friendly staff, and a standout experience. Our waitress, Janet, was amazing--super attentive and helpful. Whenever I asked about dishes I saw coming out, she was more than happy to explain them. We'll definitely be back.
