The dish was beautifully presented, featuring perfectly cooked rice noodles that were infused with a rich, savory sauce. The chicken was tender and flavorful, complemented by fresh vegetables that added a delightful crunch. Each bite was a harmonious blend of textures and tastes, making it one of the best pad Thai dishes I've ever had. In addition to the pad Thai, I ordered the pot chicken dumplings, also known as chicken stickers. These were equally impressive. The dumplings were steamed to perfection, with a soft, delicate wrapper that encased a juicy filling. Each dumpling was bursting with flavor, and the accompanying dipping sauce added just the right amount of zing. What truly elevated the experience was the service. The staff was attentive and friendly, ensuring that my dining experience was enjoyable from start to finish. They were knowledgeable about the menu and made excellent recommendations, which made my meal even better. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking to enjoy authentic and delicious Thai cuisine. The combination of fantastic food and superb service made for a memorable dining experience. I can't wait to return and try more dishes!

THE BLACK AND WHITE: We came here after a long day of wine tastings and wanted to grab a nice sit down before heading back home. It wasn't too busy at 6pm when we ate, which was surprising and we were immediately seated. Be warned that the AC is barely working and it was hot inside. We ordered the green curry with chicken and the pad see ew with beef. The dishes came out fast, but to be honest, was very bland. The pad see ew lacked that thai finesse of wok hei. Green curry seemed like a packet-based curry and was watered down. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Damage done was $58 for 2 dishes, which was also a relatively pricey meal for something that I thought could've been executed better.

We were a party of four, seated quickly and our server came up after 5 minutes or so, asked about drinks. We ordered he brought them and then disappeared...didn't ask if we wanted appetizers. We stopped him on his next lap passing by and asked for edamame, he brought one order and left. Had to stop him again and asked for another order as he didn't wait long enough for us to say two orders the first time...he dropped it off and gone againWe were ready to order so we had to flag him down again. Finally ordered and he brings one order...then 5 minutes later another order...and then 5 minutes for the next order and then closer to 10 minutes for the last order. No apparent thought given to bringing everything at the same time so we can all eat together? Very sad as we have always enjoyed eating here...maybe they were too busy but good service should always be a foremost goal of a restaurant...

Their chef makes some of the BEST soups. They're creative, flavorful, comforting, and consistently delicious. I'm not saying I plan my life around soup season...but soup season is coming, and Odyssey is ready. Great food, genuinely friendly service, a comfortable atmosphere, and consistently good experiences. We really enjoy eating here and are lucky to have Odyssey in our community. And seriously--get the soup.

I've lived in Paso since 1986. Quite honestly there aren't many local restaurants that impress me…read more Odyssey World Cafe is an exception. Located in Downtown Paso, parking is usually easiest to find in the parking lot behind them, 1 block back. The food--flavorful, served quickly, excellent portions (not too much, not too little), and just a great price. Their Wednesday special, my favorite, is chicken parmesan with a glass of wine and a side for $20. $20! Dinner is served in a short time frame, plated perfectly. This is not a 3-course meal, everything served separately. They are not pouring the glass of water for me. This is a tasty, perfectly plated dish being served to me, along with any accompanying sides. Their staff is wonderful. Oscar is super personable as is everyone else, I just don't know their names.

The smell was so good that I drove around the strip mall parking lot trying to track down the source. That search led us to China Gourmet, a very unassuming restaurant tucked away in the shopping center. Once inside, you're transported into a charming mom-and-pop Chinese restaurant. The décor is simple, comfortable, and fitting for the space, creating a welcoming atmosphere. After looking through the menu, we decided on the Chef's Special Dinner. For our entrées, we chose the Chow Fun Noodles with Beef, Sizzling Black Pepper Beef, and Chicken Fried Rice. Appetizers included Egg Rolls, Deep-Fried Shrimp, and BBQ Ribs. The meal also came with a bowl of War Wonton Soup. Everything was freshly prepared and made to order. The ingredients tasted fresh, the flavors were well balanced, and every dish was cooked properly. The standout item for us was the Chow Fun Noodles with Beef. The tender beef and perfectly cooked noodles made it the highlight of the meal. Everything paired nicely with a chilled glass of Hexamer Riesling. To top it all off, the service was excellent. The staff was attentive, and all of our dishes arrived in a timely manner. We'll definitely be back for another visit.

She recommended sitting at the bar, so we did just that, and it was such a good choice. It was really fun to watch them cook and get to chat with the owner while he did so. We asked the owner what he recommended, and the calamari appetizer was his highlight. We started with that, and it was great. While everything else in the meal was also really good, this was the highlight and I'd absolutely get it again and again. For mains we got the scallop and scampi pasta over pasta and the trio fish plate special. Narrowing it down to these two wasn't easy since everything on the menu sounded good. I would get both items again, but will probably get something else next time just to try more of the menu. We came in right as they opened on a weekday evening, so we had the place to ourselves to start. It did start to fill in fairly quickly, so I would imagine it gets crowded on weekends.

My boss told me of this places a year ago and tonight was the night to check it out. The Sprinter is too big for the parking lot so I parked around the corner on Ysable St. by the coffee place. I walked in and saw the five flat screens showing pre season nfl football. Okay I'm here...A great counter Ashley greeted me and three very large flat screen menus hung above. The Ashley handed me a menu, thank you. I see a brick fired oven just behind the counter. Now I could go into detail about the counter but that would spoil it for you. Beer and wines are featured, good ones too. They pretty much have it all here, really. I ordered a small garden salad tossed with blue cheese, no housemade dressings here. An individual 9" pie, a favorite "the Rustic Carnivore". The next size up was 11". I grabbed a Tropical Iced tea and found a hi-top placed front and center with the screen. I went to the restroom, washed up and my salad was being delivered. My pizza showed up as I was nearly done with the salad oh yea. The Pie was cut in fourths, so it was a folded slice to eat, that works. Very Good, good coverage on toppings, sauce was flavorful and it was oven hot WoW I was impressed, as I was enjoying, the rest of the crowd showed up for pizza. Nice timing foodguy.

6 Star Alert. 6 star Alert. 6 star Alert. 6 star Alert…read more SIX STAR ALERT. SIX STAR ALERT. That right people, I said it.... And 6 times to be exact! Because let me tell you, the Spice of Life in Downtown Paso Robles not only deserves those 6 stars, but they truly EARNED each & every star (plus a bonus star) that I am awarding them for their exceptional hospitality. Now, let me tell you why! While in Paso for my wife's weekend birthday getaway, we had such fun time casually strolling the streets with no where to be. While window shopping, going in and out of the various shops, and just meandering through the downtown area.... We suddenly came across a little business called: The Spice of Life From the outside, it was pretty obvious what we were about to get into... ----Spices----Herbs----Teas---- Hey, they had me at Spices, but the rest is what kept me from leaving there anytime soon. Upon entering this quaint little shop, we were immediately immersed into a world that I Love. Spices, Spices and more Spices!!! Yeah, I'm that guy that at home, not in public of course, that will put a little spice on my hand and lick it off (to test it of course). I know, but I'm just a spice freak, what can I say! Yeah, give me a good lemon pepper, a blended steak seasoning or even a Kansas City Bbq Rub and I'll gladly give it the "Lance Lick of Approval". Yeah, I'm a Spice Man, & I'm not afraid to admit it. And let me tell you, this place has got spices!! Yeah, there are Jars and Jars, & more Jars of the finest, most incredible spices you can dream of. But on Top of the Spices... There are Oils, Vinegars, Teas, Tea Accessories, Herbal Supplements, Books, and More! And with all that shopping... Why not grab a quick bite alongside a freshly brewed coffee or tea at their mini cafe right on the premises. Heck, we did! (We had the Vanilla Chai Tea Latte) And it was Fire! So what makes this place earn a well deserved 6 star review?? It wasn't just their great product. Or even their beautifully prepared drink. It was their hospitality, their graciousness, and the human connection that we felt that went above the typical customer vs. retailer interaction. The lady who assisted us (forgive me but I forget her name) but she might have been maybe the owner or maybe even manager of the place was so kind, helpful and made our experience exceptional, so thank you for that! With so many great gift ideas and things that we needed for our own household, you know we did some damage and got a few things to take back home. So.... If you are a fan of spices like me, love yourself some tea, are looking for some unique, fun gift ideas or just want to enjoy a nice, quaint shop where the service hopefully exceeds your expectations like it did for me... Then take my highly recommended suggestion and get over to the... Spice of Life in Downtown Paso Robles ASAP!!!

We spent $186 here, and unfortunately the food just did not come close to matching the price…read more I'll give credit where it's due: the cornbread was excellent -- 5/5. Easily the best thing we ate. The chips were also really good -- 4/5. The mac & cheese was decent, about a 3/5. Nothing amazing, but I'd eat it again. Then we got to the BBQ. The tacos were maybe a 1.5-2/5. They were packed with toppings and looked like they should have had a ton of flavor, but somehow they were still really bland. The brisket was a 1/5. It was dry and just not what I expect from a BBQ restaurant, especially at these prices. And the burnt ends were honestly a 0.025/5. They were ridiculously tough and hard to chew. Burnt ends should be rich, tender and one of the best bites at a BBQ place. These were easily the worst thing we ordered. For $186, I expected a hell of a lot better. When the cornbread and chips are the highlights of a BBQ meal and the actual BBQ is the weakest part, there's a problem. Cornbread: 5/5 Chips: 4/5 Mac & cheese: 3/5 Tacos: 1.5-2/5 Brisket: 1/5 Burnt ends: 0.025/5 Maybe we caught them on a bad day, but based on the meal we were served, I wouldn't spend the money to come back.
