    Great food, great prices. Lots of different variety of what you can order. All very well made and delicious.

    This place was recommended to me by a good friend, and she was absolutely right. I really enjoyed this dish called Surf and Turf. It includes shrimp, beef, fries, and everything is topped with a delicious sauce. I highly recommend it to everyone. Great price, very tasty food, and friendly staff. Definitely recommend!

    Just went to Ferny's for lunch. I didn't know what to try, so I just went with the 5 rolled tacos. I was disappointed that it was just guacamole & cheese on top, so I had them add lettuce. Flavor was ok, nothing too special. The spot was a typical taco shop. The service was ok. I didn't even realize she was talking to me because she wasn't looking at me at all. I may or may not be back. I just happened to be in the area and decided to try it. I gave it 4 stars because any taquitos that is guacamole & cheese is never 5-stars. I need to give this another try to see if it gets 3 stars or 5 next time.

    Food tasted amazing! Unfortunately there was a woman employee that was being rude to the other staff. She was complaining and bossing around the staff in disrespectful manner. I would be very disappointed if she was working for me. Definitely not a professional employee.

    Clear shot of their most current menu

    Ferny's is one of the best taco shops I've found. It's our go-to when we aren't exploring for new places. Their salsa is top notch (our favorite is the Fea/ hottest one). Our go-to orders there are the Steak and egg Breakfast burrito (pro-tip add chipotle cream sauce ), Surf and Turf Fries, carne asada and adobada tacos. Honorable mentions are their surfing Cali Burrito, and Ferny's burrito. Def give this place a try!!

    It's a pretty solid spot. We had the carne asada fries, carne asada burrito and carnitas mini tacos. Everything was really good, but their red sauce was super mild and had too much of tomato pasta sauce flavor for us. The remodel looks great and the young man working the counter was super friendly.

    I'm allergic to shrimp, is it safe to eat here? Do they separate where they fry shrimp from other items?

This was a medical necessity to ensure my safety. Monitoring blood sugar is not something that can reasonably or appropriately be done out in public, and there was no private space offered or available at the bar to accommodate this medical need. Throughout the evening, I had used the same restroom multiple times with female friends without any issue. The only time staff intervened was when my husband was present specifically to help with a medical situation. We are older adults and long-standing, active members of this community. We rarely go out -- this was for a friend's birthday, something we do maybe once a year. We were with a group of friends who are also older adults, all of whom had been there for some time, simply sitting together and minding our own business, not interacting with or disturbing other patrons. Being removed in front of our friends, without any conversation, clarification, or discretion, was deeply embarrassing and upsetting. A simple, private question or a moment of understanding could have avoided this entirely. I hope management uses this as an opportunity to better train staff on handling medical situations with compassion, discretion, and consistency.

The experience overall was awesome. One thing I thought was really cool is during happy hour they spin a wheel and whatever it lands on becomes the promotion for the next 30 minutes, which keeps everyone engaged and makes it fun for the whole crowd. The bartenders were awesome too, super attentive and easy to talk to. Definitely a place I'd come back to again. Five stars all the way around,. If you're ever in Lakeside you should definitely check this place out, and their happy hour is great too. #LakesideCA #HappyHourVibes #FoodieFinds #PatioVibes #WingsAndTacos #LocalSpots

The Oaks proved to be the perfect venue. When we arrived, the group had commandeered several tables in the dining room. Becky and I bellied up the adjacent large horseshoe shaped bar. The TVs were all tuned to various NFL games. A group of Steelers fans were in the dining room next to our group watching and cheering their team on a giant TV. Becky and I wanted to watch the Seahawks. Mike, Director of the Carlton Oaks Country Club, was happy to put it on one of the many TVs for us. We wanted a snack, so we ordered the Potato Skins. Potato halves filled with cheese, bacon bits and chives. They are cut lengthwise in half for easier dipping and eating. Served with ranch and sour cream for dipping. Bottles of Tapatio, Tabasco and Cholula were provided if you wanted to spice it up. They were quite tasty and the perfect portion size. Price was right too! Because of the acoustics, the dining room can get a little loud. If you just want to chill and take in the view, step outside to the patio. Great views of the golf course. Service at the bar was friendly and on point. The large groups in the dining room were being well taken care of as well.
