The drinks were not usual The Safeword was excellent without being sweet The goat cheese balls had a wonderful taste contrast with crunchy and smooth Sautéed spinach was tasty with just the right amount of garlic and not overpowering The fried deviled eggs were delicious Berlin our server was very knowledgeable and friendly read more

We got to the restaurant around 6:14pm and didn't get our food until about 7, which was longer than I expected especially since it was pretty empty when we arrived. There was only one waiter, and while he was really nice, he definitely seemed a bit overworked. The place itself is small but really cute, and the decor is gorgeous. The food presentation was great, but my chicken ended up being a little dry. Everything tasted good overall, but for the price, I was hoping for a bit more depth and complexity. I thought about getting dessert, but honestly didn't want to wait that long again since it was already getting late. Also, the Riesling wasn't my favorite, they only had a sweeter one, and I usually prefer dry. Not a bad spot by any means, but probably not somewhere I'd go back to especially if I'm really hungry lol. I'd give it a solid 4/5, mainly because of the wait time and the dry chicken. read more

We came for brunch on Sunday. We ordered margaritas as soon as we sat down with our food with ceviche. Our food came before our drinks and they accidentally brought eggs Benedict instead of ceviche. When the bartender PJ set down our drinks about 25 min later he turned to my friend and said "Eggs Benedict comes with sauce no matter where you order it so maybe order something else next time." We told him we didn't order eggs of any kind and he said "we'll just order more carefully next time." We ordered another round which took another 20 min. Our waitress Berlin was flying solo and was running around managing tables by herself and was so friendly apologizing for our delayed drinks. We would come back for her but the slow bartender lecturing us really soured things. Food was great! read more

Love the art deco interior, staff was friendly and drinks were plenty good. It was Black Friday and was just looking to have some drinks with a friend and it was perfect. It was a little slippery inside since it was raining out, but the staff was quick to bring out a sign as soon as something was said. Looking forward to coming back for some food next time. read more

Very good service there, puts us in good mood immediately. Food was served a bit late, appetizer and the rest of the dishes came out almost same time. Tuna stack was alright, I had better ones many other places, salmon plate had very good califlower mash, it's delightful and healthy. Brie burger is delicious, we all agreed it's better than the salmon. I think this is a very good spot for date night, celebration and even casual business team outing. Give it a try! :) read more

Opening week for Studio Four29 in downtown Upland. This brand new spot offers a classy dining room and elevated dishes. I had the tuna tower, deep-fried deviled eggs, king salmon, and lamb meatballs. I have to say, the salmon and meatballs were divine. The dishes were vibrant with color, plated beautifully, cooked perfectly, and full of flavor. Once this restaurant gets settled and works out their timing issues in the kitchen, this will be a destination dinner spot. I wish them the best in their future endeavors! read more

3 of us arrived at 3:30pm on a sunday. We were told that would could wait until 4pm for the dinner service or we could order apps only until that time. No worries, we got the fried deviled eggs and some drinks to hold us until the dinner service. The deviled eggs were good. My wife enjoyed them. While we waited we had some drinks and they were very good. For the main course we decided to order 3 plates and share it all so we could try several things. 1. Kurobuta pork belly 2. Lamb meatballs 3. Prawns Im going to start with the prawns as this was my least favorite. First thing is that it was listed under the shareables. There were exactly 2 prawns and one cheese stuffed pepper. The prawns were extremely dry and did not have much flavor. My wife had the pepper and found that it too was lacking in flavor. The next dish was the Lamb meatballs.... and I seriously could not tell them apart from a beef meatball. They were ok, but very dry as well. If you took a bite with the tomato sauce and some of the spinach they were pretty good. I did enjoy the lemon potatoes and the spinach a lot. The last dish was the Kurobuta pork belly, and this one did not disappoint. The brussel sprouts were cooked perfectly and paired well with the sweet potatoes. The pork was delish, with just enough fat and sauce to get some real flavor explosion. Definitely the best dish of the meal. Overall the meal was nice. The service team were extremely nice and accommodating. The atmosphere of the place is what really drew us in... since I watched it being put together a little at a time while walking by for a few months. They nailed the art deco experience with all the different textures and the beautiful lighting. While our meal was not the best, Im hoping it will improve on our next try. I was sad that the mahi-mahi & octopus ceviche was sold out... so Im hoping to get to try that! read more

Studio Four29 - Goat Cheese Lollipops - New American Near Me - Upland, California

Hidden Gem Alert in Downtown Upland! This new spot is pure magic--a sophisticated, cool atmosphere paired with flavors that surprise and delight. We stumbled upon it for happy hour and it was an unexpected treasure trove of indulgence. The charcuterie plate? Generous and beautifully curated. Each bite of savory meat was divine, but the true showstopper was the goat cheese lollipops--crispy, creamy, and absolutely addictive. A flavor bomb in every bite! Pro tip: Order these Happy Hour items together. The "Velvet Rope" cocktail lived up to its name: smooth, refreshing, and layered. It hit that perfect balance of bold and welcoming. I'm already craving another. Portions were impressively generous and plated with a level of care you rarely find in casual settings. Everything felt elevated--yet never pretentious. Dessert deserves its own standing ovation. Their warm flourless chocolate cake paired with fresh strawberries melted right into the soul. Silky, rich, and comfort wrapped in decadence. The staff was genuinely warm and attentive, making the entire afternoon celebratory. We left feeling full--in every sense of the word. Already plotting our next visit. If you're in Upland and want an experience that surprises, delights, and satisfies, this place absolutely delivers. read more

The food was delicious. I had the Salmon and my husband had the Pork Belly both were cooked to perfection and all the flavors worked well together so you always got the perfect bite. Music isn't too loud so it was perfect for conversation, the lighting is low, but not so low that you can't see what you're eating or read your menu. Just low enough to make it romantic. Krystian was very helpful and knowledgeable of what was on the menu, and informed us of the specials for the evening. He was very attentive, friendly, and never made us feel like we were bugging as this was our first time here. The restaurant is very clean, restrooms were clean. 10/10 we will definitely be back. read more

This place is so good! I ordered the eggs Benedict with crispy prosciutto instead of bacon and the hollandaise sauce everything was just so tasty. The service was top-tier.

Finally a restaurant close to home that makes me want to come back for more, my taste buds were amazed by different varieties such as the goat cheese lollipop and the filet was cooked perfection, we sat outside it was cold but thankfully the warmers helped and the drinks for their valentines special help keep me warm the plur drink was different but good. Our waitress was so sweet and kind they were very busy but I could see they were helping one another out I love to see that at a restaurant working as a team. My filet Mignon was soft and cooked very tender the potato too was was very delicious and broccoli was my favorite, husband ordered the New York steak he inhaled it and said he was very happy with the pepper on it. We also ordered sourdough bread we're trying to make out the dipping sauce gave us an olive oil with balsamic vinegar and another ingredient that was a perfect combination. We will be back to try their brunch and the hamburger thank you for a wonderful early valentines evening. One last thing the crème brûlée was delicious the paring of the pears and black berries was very creative. read more

Disappointed and Won't Return I really wanted to like Studio Four 29, but my experience was a mess from start to finish. The space is extremely noisy with no acoustics--you can hear everything, and it's magnified. The atmosphere felt chaotic, especially with the manager rushing around, which honestly gave me anxiety. We were served the wrong appetizer, and when the goat cheese with honey finally arrived, it was completely flavorless and confusing. The wine pour was tiny for the price, with no carafe or side pour--just a deceiving glass. The worst part was the salmon. It was placed over soggy, bland vegetables and burned on the outside. I took a bite thinking it was a glaze--only to gag from the bitter, charred taste. My husband's wagyu burger had no seasoning either. The staff was kind and did apologize, even removing the salmon from the bill, but the damage was done. For the high prices, I expect quality and attention to detail. This is the same owner as Bardot in Claremont, but the execution here was inexcusable. I'd rather drive to LA or OC for a proper dining experience. Unfortunately, I won't be back. read more

We came to Studio Four 29 in Upland for a birthday brunch and had a great time. Service was friendly, and even though we hit shift change and drinks were a bit slow, our server took great care of us. They quickly adjusted the loud music and blasting A/C when we asked -- much appreciated. Cocktails were excellent (loved the Velvet Rope, Safe Word, Peachy Spritz, The Razzy, and Blue Coco). Food standouts were the Eggs Benedict, Fried Deviled Eggs, Beef Bourguignon Poutine, and the Raspberry Brownie Surprise. Beautiful décor, delicious food and drinks -- we'll definitely be back. read more

I had the fried pickles for starters with Chardonnay. My husband had the oysters and he also ordered the barbecue. He said it was excellent but his veggies could have been warmer. I ordered the Powerball. In my humble opinion it needed a little bit more seasoning. the restaurant is beautiful very clean and cute decor. The server was great and very attentive. read more

Went here with my best friends & had an excellent evening. Jose was our server & he was excellent in recommendations & service. We started off with great seasonal cocktails & Goat cheese lollipops followed by Tuna tower. All very good. We all decided to do the special today which was surf & turf for under $45 it was INCREDIBLE. Best lobster tail I've had in a long time. For dessert we got the creme brûlée & raspberry brownie surprise. Not a bad item was had. We will be back & in the meantime I'm telling everyone about this spot & Jose. read more

I came here to celebrate my birthday and was really excited about ordering my meal and enjoying a nice dinner. My wife's meal came out first, and at first I thought maybe mine was just taking a little longer. Unfortunately, she ended up finishing her entire meal while mine never came out at all. When I asked the waiter about it, he claimed that he had put my order in, but it was obvious that he had simply forgotten and then tried to cover it up. This situation really shows the importance of writing orders down instead of relying on memory, because mistakes like this completely ruin the dining experience. This was supposed to be a special birthday dinner, and instead it turned into frustration and disappointment. I had high hopes for this place, but the poor service ruined the night. read more

Just moved nearby and heard a lot about this place from friends and Downtown Upland's social media page. I came here for a date night at around 9:05 but instead of greeting us we were immediately told that the kitchen was closed. Told the taller light skin gentleman that it says you guys close at 10pm but he replied that last call was at 9pm (which I didn't really believe). I asked if we can at least sit at the bar and have a drink and he said that bar was closed as well with a very annoyed tone directed towards us. That's when I got the hint that they just didn't really want to have any more work to do. I would understand that response from them if I walked in 5-10 minutes before closing but almost an hour? I'm sure on a different day someone there would've been willing to welcome us in but I guess we got unlucky that night. Don't want to say anything super negative about the individuals because I'm sure they had a long day at work and they were just trying to get out of there that night but not even allowing us to have a drink an hour before close is unacceptable. Don't think I'll be back here to be honest but hopefully they are a little more welcoming to guest who aren't able to make it in earlier in the day. read more

Yall are absolutely wild for hyping this place up. The egg itself was overcooked so the egg was grey and rubbery inside of a fried casing. And the Mac ? I know pleasing a southerner is hard when it comes to comfort food but this was so grainy and chewy in the worst way, with the smallest bit of lobster on top. These two dishes and a small glass of coke came to $70+. Absolutely wild. HOWEVER, our server was amazing. He was super attentive and checked on us multiple times. We made sure to leave him 20%. read more

Studio Four29 - Fried deviled eggs and lobster Mac - New American Near Me - Upland, California

We finally got around to trying brunch a few times and the chilaquiles are definitely a shareable portion and a nice kick to them and they do the eggs any style you like. Waffle is super fluffy and fried chicken is a thick and juicy piece. Eggs Benedict was also amazing and filling. They also have new weekly specials: whiskey Wednesday and Thirsty Thursday and a surf and turf Sunday. We've tried the surf and turf so far and it's such a great deal for a generous portion of filet and lobster that are both very tasty along with potatoes and seasonal veggies! They also have 50% off wine on Sundays. The speciality cocktails for the holidays are delicious! I don't even like mezcal and the red dress was one of the best cocktails I've ever had! All the staff continues to be so incredibly friendly and amazing! read more

This hurts because we sincerely wanted to love it! We tried this place a few different times to give it a fair chance. My overall take is that I feel like all resources were expended on the beautiful ambiance. The food is disgusting and 2 out 3 times was simply inedible. Although gorgeous, seating is super tight that we have been constantly bumped.... like CONSTANTLY! Our 1st server seemed overbearingly annoyed that we had questions about the menu instead of being dazzle by the pretty decor. When asked where they oysters were from and when they were received, he kept saying he didn't know but they must have just gotten them. We asked if he could find out, he sighed and rolled his eyes and gave us a condescending 'SUUUUURE'... (we love oysters and always ask the same questions when we order them because shellfish can be tricky.) Our server came back with the answers to our questions and we ordered 1/2 a dozen. They were in a large plate on ice with 2 lemon slices, ketchup, and marinated onions that was supposed to be mignonette and placed atop a hot pizza rack... our table was tiny so it took up A LOT of space so I removed the rack and placed the tray on the table. I asked for horse radish, hot sauce, more lemons,and an oyster fork. He told us they didn't have oyster forks and where was the rock salt for the ice?... odd. By this time our drinks had come out as well. My lemon drop martini tasted like medicine so I asked for a diet coke instead. Our server insisted more than 4 times that the bartender would just remake the drink. Apparently I NEEDED to drink what he told me to. I took a sip of the remade drink, it was an overly sweet lemonade that ended up just taking up space. We had ordered the half chicken and glazed pork belly (see pictures). The chicken was ridiculously dry yet had disgusting soggy and seemingly fried skin that was doused in some sort of sauce. It was on top of very overcooked mushy rice and topped with dried lemon slices that were inedible and disgusting. The glazed pork belly was 2 cuts of dry pork with a dollop of bbq sauce on top. We were starving and didn't care at this point so we tried to eat but it was literally inedible. I was seated facing the mirrored wall and there was only 3 other parties when we arrived. I got to watch our server complaining about everything to the bartender and then to the general manager. After about an hour and a half, the general manager came over. She told us that our server was informed of our aforementioned menu questions and they did in fact have oyster forks. She informed us of her title of General Manager over SEVEN times and apologized that 'someone of my CALIBER' had a less than great experience. I made sure to let her know that I don't have any CALIBER I just like to eat food. As a general manager of a new restaurant, wouldn't you be sure to quality check orders leaving the kitchen when there was only a handful of customers? I'm sorry, this food seems cheap and previously frozen with a microwave doing most of the work. read more

Had a great time the first visit! Everything I tried was awesome and would definitely recommend. The only gripe (slight one) is the waitress seemed to know nothing about the menu and kept having to walk back to ask the kitchen staff. All should be aware of their menu. The other thing is, I asked which type of Wagyu their Wagyu cheeseburger is and they said it was Japanese Wagyu; I highly doubt it as it looked, felt and tasted like American Wagyu. Regardless, it was still good and will definitely be back. read more
