    The art work in the restaurant as well as decor is superb
    George U.

    Simply amazing ! We had reservations for dinner at Sheila' Wine Bar this evening and were greeted by Pablo and his lovely wife Berta. What a beautiful couple who make the ambiance and environment feel like you are part of their family. A true blessing. Pete who is also family was our server and is always a pleasure and amazing server. We started with wine and Bruschetta and the choices were spectacular. The Rutherford Cab and the Rutherford Chardonnay were both excellent choices. The wine selection is stellar and provides something for everyone. The Bruschetta is the best of any we have had and the presentation is worthy of mention. For our entrees my wife had the Halibut special which was beautifully prepared and presented. The temperature and taste of both entrees were impeccable. I selected the filet mignon entree prepared medium rare and the dish was stellar and prepared perfectly and tasted that much better. I also had a second glass on the cab which was delicious. We also had an opportunity to visit with Andrew, their youngest son, who is definently a well rounded and career focused young man with a solid work ethic, fantastic social skills, confidence and a focal point on becoming a physician and I have no doubt this young man will go far. We spoke with Pablo and Berta who are always glowing with love and gratitude as the restaurant was packed, yes a full house and the family makes it a point to visit at each table and show love to the patrons who are all part of their family. Morty, the bartender, also checks in at the tables to see how everyone is doing and see how the wine and cocktails are tasting. This is a class act. Pablo and Berta have three sons, Andrew, Austin and Ivan and they are all such amazing men. The family brings a new experience to those seeking more than just a night out dining as they give their all and make you feel so welcomed and loved you don't want to leave. You must stop by Sheila's Wine Bar and give this experience a try! The food, service, ambiance and overall experience will keep you coming back again and again. Highly recommended!

    Salmon special

    We love Sheila's. The food is fresh, hot, made to order. The wine selection and advice is excellent. The atmosphere is cozy and comfortable....and quiet this is hands down our favorite special occasion spot in Camarillo

    Pork chop on a bed of polenta with arugula
    Niki R.

    Wandered into Sheila's Place after wanting to try something 'new' in Camarillo. We were invited to seat anywhere and were attended to almost immediately with water. The server asked us if we wanted bread and then before we could answer because we took a moment -- he said- I think you do-- it's really good. And proceeded to go get us some hot bread and a delicious balsamic, olive oil, garlic and Parmesan dip that had been blended together...the bread was nothing special- but that dip certainly was. The bread was just a delivery system for a delectable flavor. Grilled Shrimp appetizer came with 4 perfectly cooked shrimp on a very elegantly arranged plate. The pork chop with capers served on polenta with two different sauces, including a chili oil was absolutely delicious. Perfectly cooked pork chop, which is highly appreciated-- with a delicious flavor-- the polenta was creamy deliciousness and a good foil for the pork. It was a Thursday evening and almost every table was filled. Can't wait to go back and try other items on the menu.

    Prior to going here I checked out their website and the menu looked very appealing. The prices were not published and based on some of the previous reviews it indicated that the prices were on the higher end, but I didn't mind if it was worth it. So I went in with high expectations due to all the rave reviews. This exterior is unassuming but when you walk in it's as if you're transported to a different place. With the dim lighting and a view of the wall filled with wine bottles it's definitely a sight to take in. I read some reviews that they found it outdated but personally I loved the decor. Maybe I'm old fashioned but it gave me a feeling of what a high end restaurant should look like. We were greeted and seated shortly after walking in. For mid week they were actually quite busy with more than half of the tables occupied. Our server was informative on their ingredients as well as where they obtain their bread. We ordered several items to share. The Blue Claw Crab Cakes was good, you can taste the flavors of the crab and the roasted pepper aioli sauce complimented it nicely. The Fig & Prosciutto pizza was ok, the sweetness of the figs overpowered all the other ingredients' flavors that it felt like I was eating toast with jam most of the time. The Alaskan Halibut was slightly overcooked and mild in taste so the sauce was definitely needed to give it some flavor. Overall everything was ok but nothing really Wowed me, so for me the high price point didn't match the experience.

    Butter cake
    Jenn W.

    We went for the first time last night. It was incredible! The crab cakes were so yummy and not too large. The bread was warm and our server brought me olive oil and balsamic that they make in house. I had their salmon which was really incredible. We ended the meal with butter cake. Again yummy. The wine was incredible. Will definitely be back.

    Osso Bocco

    If your looking to have a romantic evening with the one you Love, or just to have some of the finest food in Ventura County. Sheila's the place! My wife had the Chicken Marcel, I had the special, Osso Bocco, both were exceptional, the crab cakes were amazing as well. Sheila's has become my absolute favorite place to take my wife out to.

    Hanger Steak with herbed potatoes and fresh vegetables (all perfectly cooked!)

    From the ambiance to the warm and welcoming friendly service to the perfectly timed food with superior taste, textures, temperatures and presentations, Sheila's knows what they're doing! We would highly recommend for a date night, any celebration, or lunch. We enjoyed the Hanger Steak, Spicy Italian Pizza, a wedge salad, appetizers and Malbec wine. All of the ingredients tasted clean and high quality. If you're in Camarillo, you need to try Sheila's.

    Garlic Caesar salad
    Bryan K.

    Had a drink here two weeks ago before having dinner at another restaurant close by. Saw the food coming out and almost cancelled our reservation to eat here, but I can't do that. So, we decided to make a date to come back for dinner - what a great decision!! Let me start with the owners: Pablo and Bertha. They were so welcoming and great conversationalists. Passionate about their business! Alright, the food, umm, oh yeah!! We had the duck breast and the garlic Caesar salad. Have not had duck like this since we were in Quebec City Canada - amazing. Tender, not too greasy, and very flavorful. The salad: nice crispy lettuce with crumbled croutons and a hint of bacon (can be so overpowering, so glad it was the right amount)! We will be regulars here as the menu selections are extensive (I'm not talking Cheesecake crazy!), the service is fantastic, and the wine selections (well, the place is a wine bar)! Check them out!!

    Sea Bass Special
    Julieanne F.

    It was a Thursday night around 6:30 pm, and the place had only 2-3 tables filled. The atmosphere was romantic with soft lighting; however, if there was soft music, at the end of the night, it was quiet, awkward, and you knew your stay was over. You can hear the children at the other tables and adults conversing over wine. I was really excited about the food, but it didn't leave me with a memorable meal. Although the flavors were decent, the fish was a bit overcooked, coconut sauce was watery, and duck was on a bed of flavorless mush. The wine selection was great, and recommendations from the waiter were spot on. Overall, it was a splurge meal, and at these plate prices, it didn't leave me wanting more.

    Panko Brie with apple and apricot compote
    Diane H.

    Oh my gosh! I had been told by friends I would love this restaurant well it could not have been any better. Food was incredible; service was above and beyond!! First time in a while that I could actually have a conversation with the people I was with; great ambiance. Such a perfect evening. Peter was our food server but he was more than just a food server. Gave wonderful advice on wine to select and perfect help on selecting dessert! I am going back for sure. If you are a salmon lover as I am it is definitely a terrific. Again everything was perfect.

My friend and I opted to sit inside at their high top table which was a nice way to scope out the restaurant. I love that everything here is customizable! You can create your own custom charcuterie board with all your favorite pairings, then explore their impressive menu of fresh salads, melty paninis, and shareable appetizers made for lingering conversations. We shared the custom charcuterie board and avocado crostini's. Both were delicious and perfect for sharing. As for the drinks, whether you're a fan of sipping wine by the glass or sharing a bottle, they have an impressive list of local and foreign wines to pick from. Also, for those of you that aren't huge wine drinkers, I was also impressed to learn that they always have at least 10 beers rotating here. We started with Chardonnay and Moscato and ended with some Southern California beers, we agreed their selection was great. As for the staff, everyone was super welcoming and attentive! We came on a busy weekday night as they had a wine tasting event going on yet the staff still managed to get everyone served promptly and drinks were always refilled. Definitely a place where you initially come for the wine, but stay for the vibes. I'd say overall this spot truly is a 10/10 - 5 stars. The food was delicious, great menu, nice staff and a good selection of wines. I'd even come back for lunch just to grab a panini and to sit on their patio. If I had to give one critique, I would say that the spot is just a little pricey. So this wouldn't be a regular stop per se, but I loved it so much that I honestly will be back soon and keep it in mind for a special girls night, etc. Also in fairness there is a way to come here and have it be cheaper, maybe just one glass of wine and a sandwich or app but we all know I go big lol. Great spot, will be back.

    Mother's Day Was Ruined. And I Need the Owner to Know…read more Let me tell you something. I've worked in five-diamond restaurants. I've worked Applebee's got the pin to prove it. Fried chicken spots. Everything in between. So when I tell you what happened here, know that I'm not some customer who doesn't understand how restaurants work. I know exactly how they work. My best friend lives in Camarillo and honey, he has been raving about this place for months. Every time someone comes to visit, he brings them here. He made our Mother's Day reservations well in advance. Our party of six. This man has easily dropped thousands of dollars in this restaurant. He loves this place. Loved. We arrived early. Server was ok. Seated us at 11, full house, two-hour window we understood the assignment. I ordered the chicken and waffles. Everything came out hot and fast. We're laughing, talking, having the best time and then I look down at my plate. There is a bug. Crawling. Through my eggs. My son grabbed his phone and got the picture. My husband God bless him, shot up to find a manager because that's what you do. That's what any reasonable person does. He found her. Her name is Cheryl. And Cheryl said... "You should've taken it up with the server." Strike one. Then she walks over to our table with an attitude and before I can even hand her my plate, she looks at me and says, "How do you want your eggs?" Like I'm supposed to take the same food back. The food with the bug in it. I was stunned. Not just by the question by the energy. It was off putting. She was annoyed. Like somehow WE were the problem. My kids were horrified. My best friend, the man who loves this restaurant was completely embarrassed. I asked to look at the menu. I wanted something different. Reasonable, right? We waited. The server came back, completely in the dark, said something like "I guess something was wrong with your food?" Sweet kid. Felt terrible when we filled him in. I said I'd just take a burger. He said of course they'd remove the chicken and waffles. THEN he came back. "We're going to have to charge you for the burger." WTH, I thought he had lost his entire mind. He disappeared again, came back, apologized I believe he genuinely felt bad. This has happened before when I have been a server and a manager is more than happy to offer you another dish and take off the other one. But Cheryl? The manager? Never came back. NOT once. Instead, she made her rounds to every single table AROUND us. Laughing. Greeting people. Interacting with guests. For 15 to 20 minutes, we sat there and watched her deliberately avoid our table. And that's when it hit me the thing I didn't want to think. I looked around. Really looked around. And we were the only ones. WELL, I was the only one who was African American woman. Me and my kids. My bestie and my hubby are of European descent. I don't SAY that lightly. Honestly? It makes me sick to even say it. But I couldn't find another explanation. Neither could my friend, who sat straight up in his chair and saw it too up close and personal. He was angry. I had to calm everyone down and say this wasn't worth it. I canceled the burger. We left. It was the worst Mother's Day I have ever had in my life. I have never been treated like this before. It's 2026. People have diverse families. What happened?! To the owner -- I'm hoping you're not her, and I'm hoping you read this. Your friend lost a loyal customer who brought everyone he knew through your doors. You lost our table, our money, and our trust the moment Cheryl decided we didn't matter. The moment she decided that she couldn't be bothered. I travel all around the world speaking, training and I have never been treated to poorly. I called hoping to speak to the OWNER. Cheryl called me back. Are you for real? She HAD a chance to make it right. But clearly she didn't care. She had every opportunity to make it right. She chose not to.
