    "Disappointing. The potato leek soup had zero texture and a glue-like consistency from being over-blended.

    Stoke House Grill is a cozy spot in Paso Robles with really good food and super friendly service. We made reservations and got seated right away. The fried calamari was my favorite, and we also loved the pasta, meat, wine, and desserts. They have a great selection of Paso Robles wines, plus easy parking and a great location. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town.

    Their Cioppino is my favorite! Consistently good excellent every time I've had it.

    Consistency is a hallmark of a great business and especially so in the food industry. The Stokehouse Grill has the best Cioppino that I've had and it's consistently good every time I order it. I hope they never lose their chef because this person understands balance and consistency. If a seafood stew in a tomato base appeals to you, you have to try this. My wife had the coconut crusted halibut which was also very good. Thank you Stokehouse for being a staple that locals and tourists enjoy.

    Baby back ribs

    Margarita has a great restaurant and was a lovely server, a quaint little restaurant with a family run charm! Best ribs I have had in a long, long time! They absolutely fell apart and melted like butter in your mouth, the guava BBQ sauce was epic! The truffle mashed potatoes paired perfectly, and tasted like heaven. Great experience and food, HIGHLY recommend!!

    Brussels
    Kristina C.

    Stopped by on a random Wednesday for early dinner and my friend and I enjoyed it a lot! We were starving when we got there so we immediately ordered the Brussels app and also the empanadas. The Brussels were SO good we could not stop raving about them! The empanadas were good but not as flavorful as the Brussels in my opinion. My friend got a sparkling wine and it was so crisp and refreshing. Then for dinner she got the margherita flatbread and I had the strawberry salad which I added salmon to. OMG the salad was sooooo good one of my fav types of salads and they killed it! The salmon wasn't my fav tho I would probably get chicken next. If we had more time we prob would have gotten dessert they looked great!! Service was super friendly and nice as well! Sat on the patio which was such a great vibe!

    Hugo's spicy sausage and shrimp pasta

    Cute little place on the plaza in Paso. They squeezed us in on New Year's Eve, even though they had many reserved tables. We had a lovely high top by the windows, looking at the lights of the plaza. The service was excellent with our server being very attentive. The food review is mixed in that the Hugo's pasta was delicious, but the coconut curry halibut was just OK. I found the coconut halibut to be a little dry on the edges, and the curry taste was very overpowering. They started the meal with warm bread, which was delicious. We also shared an appetizer of calamari, which was also very good. It was all calamari rings nicely breaded with two sauces. We definitely recommend this restaurant.

    Cioppino
    Nichole M.

    This was not really my favorite place to eat during our Paso trip. We looked up early dining options and came across this location. It looked promising, and while it was not bad, it certainly did not come close to The Hatch type of experience. We walked in right when it opened and there was no one else there. Whether that is a good or bad thing, I am not sure. The vibe felt a bit too eclectic. The mix of styles made it hard to understand the overall theme of the restaurant. It was a little cold and very eerily quiet inside with very minimal interactions with the server. I ordered the cioppino, and while I do not expect any place to live up to Phil's Fish Market, (although it was about the same price as Phil's) this just was not what I hoped for. The broth was unusually thick, more like tomato sauce than a traditional broth with random pieces of spinach leaves. It came with two pieces of bread. My husband ordered the pork chop and she asked how he wanted it cooked. I don't think we've ever been asked about how we want a pork chop cooked...just cooked. Although, the sherry glaze was really good!! Overall, it was not a standout experience in terms of food, service or atmosphere, and I left feeling a bit underwhelmed. I probably would not return for dinner. The outdoor area did look nice, but it was not set up and we were not offered the option to sit outside.

    A cute restaurant off the square in downtown Paso Robles. But look, I'm just going to say it. This one confused me ha. You look at the menu and try to figure out what they are, and I don't even think they know! Between the decor, music and menu, it was making my head spin. Fusion is where I've landed since you have Mexican, Asian, American and Italian dishes. So good news is everyone will likely find something they like. Better news is the food was FANTASTIC. The bbq ribs were so meaty and tender, they fell right off the bone. The halibut was a massive portion crusted with coconut and covered in beautifully julienned vegetables and curry. One of the best dishes I've had in a while. The two waitresses on staff were so sweet and thoughtful, making the meal an even better experience. Can't say enough good things.

    Steak and pork chops!
    Angelo H.

    What a nice hiding spot in downtown Paso Robles. My wife and I are definitely returning to keep exploring their menu. Everything looks so good! We had the pork chops and the steak, both were so delicious and tasty. Desert was also fantastic! We didn't know that the owner was the one taking care of us till she stopped to ask if everything was okay. She's a very down to earth lady, polite and attentive. Please do your self a favor and try their fantastic menu. You won't regret it! Keep up the good work! Angel & Rocio :)

    We did family style and ordered the cioppino (garlic bread was sooo good too), pork chop and the shrimp pasta. All were excellent.
    Janey L.

    My husband listed 3 restaurants he found in Paso and I chose this one. I was a little surprised the restaurant was not more crowded on a Sunday but the whole town seemed a bit quiet today. The food was so so so good! We ordered 3 entrees to share family style and we loved all 3 of them. If I had to vote for one, the shrimp pasta was a must and I would go back again for this dish. Nothing was overly salty and the bread was crisp but not burnt. Service was very friendly and the restaurant was quiet until a family with a little girl came in but we finished our meal and was ready to leave. We will definitely return again!

    Still one of my all-time favorite restaurants in Paso Robles! Every time I come here, it ceases to amaze me how not busy this restaurant is for being in the main downtown Paso Square and having such amazing food. Got my irregular chicken, piccata with veggies and potatoes, and it was amazing as usual. My friend got the shrimp pasta, which was a special, and she absolutely loved it! The service is great, and the food always comes out steaming, hot and absolutely delicious! Five stars every time!!

    Ribeye Special
    Muriel T.

    The Ribeye Special was cooked perfectly, seasoned great, and the mushroom sauce was sweet and delicious! Staff were very friendly and attentive especially Jessica. The place was very spacious and had some outside seating. Altogether great experience.

When you're in Paso Robles, do what the locals and visitors alike do: head over to Hatch Rotisserie & Bar for a nice, down-to-earth upscale vibe.

Of note, we were never given an option for indoor seating when making our reservation nor when we were seated. After ordering, we received our starter (shishito peppers) within 10 minutes. However once we finished the starter we waited an additional 30-40 minutes for our entrees. There was no communication from the wait staff at all, no refills on water, nothing. In fact in the patio dining area I saw three plates of food (including our peppers) delivered to tables in the hour we had been sitting there. Interestingly the wait staff all seemed very busy and moved around the restaurant but not much appeared to get done. Having worked in hospitality previously I have a lot of empathy for the staff as they seemed to lack direction and management support. My husband ordered the mushroom and scallop pasta. It was okay. Overpriced, but was tasty. I ordered the chile relleno and steak. The chile relleno was filled with a large amount of corn that tasted freezer burnt. My steak was thin and grey and overcooked. It was nearly all grey inside with a couple spots of pink. It wasn't seasoned either. The sauces on the plate were good. Our server was polite and did take it off the menu. However, no manager ever came by to check on us or any other table on the patio in the time we were there. I had high hopes for this place based on the reviews. It was a real let down to have a lackluster food and service experience at "one of the nicest places" in Paso.

My dad tried the salmon taco, which he thought was just okay. A bit greasy and not something he'd reorder, but still fine for a quick bite. The outdoor seating is lovely -- a peaceful garden-style patio that makes the whole experience feel relaxed and charming. My only wish is that the menu had a few more options, as it's definitely on the limited side. Overall, great ambiance, exceptional salad, the service is fast, friendly; a nice little stop if you're passing through Paso Robles.

The shrimp Tostada was so disappointing, the pasta dish/ravioli was soupy, and the pork belly- just absolutely no.

In a word, the overall Six Test Kitchen experience was PERFECTION! Thank you to Chef Ricky and his team for creating a very unique and special dining experience. Food: Delicious. Beautiful. Sumptuous. Thoughtful. Creative. Props to the chef for taking great care not to serve us cilantro, which one of us can't eat. He went out of his way to ask us questions about this prior and we were so grateful for his clear communication to ensure we had a great experience. We enjoyed 14 (!) tastings and we were stuffed afterwards - which is quite surprising since the tastes are small. We did not order the wine pairings and are so glad we didn't because we think we would have been too full to enjoy all of the food. We saved our wine tasting for the previous and following days when visiting wineries, and we didn't feel it was necessary to include with this experience. We took a few photos of the food, but didn't want to spend a lot of time taking photos (since we wanted to really enjoy the food) and then luckily, we met a couple the next day at our hotel who also had dined at the restaurant at the same time we did, and they shared more photos too. So I'll include all of those photos here. Ambience: Comfortable and Intimate. We felt like we were on an episode of Hell's Kitchen - the lighting is dim-ish, you are sitting around a bar next to 11 other patrons, looking into the kitchen with steel appliances and counters and watching the chefs prepare your food very diligently. Service: Straightforward. Each chef that delivered the food was polite, but not overly chatty as they were focused on preparing and delivering the food. We can't say enough about our first Six Test Kitchen experience. We have been raving about it ever since we dined in February. On our next trip to Paso Robles, which we hope is soon, we plan to go back. We made sure to make our reservation well in advance as we had heard it books up, so make sure to mark your calendar if you want to go! Value: We thought the experience was well-priced. The very next day, we had booked a six-course dining experience at Justin Winery. It was quite good and was about the same price, and we felt Six Test Kitchen was just a better value and experience overall. We would choose Six Text Kitchen over that experience for a Michelin-star tasting experience that was truly immersive and fun. To end the night, they presented the menu to us detailing all a list of all of the food we enjoyed and signed it. A very nice touch!
