    Note the MALTS advertisement.
    Jade B.

    This place advertises Malts so I took my elderly mother who just had knee replacement surgery to get one. A worker rudely told that the are served next door when the sign clearly says malts. We were served malts here at The Parlor 2 weeks ago. We had to go next door which was full of kids and a long line. To be honest The Parlor looks more like a storage area for Coastal Cone. Great place to go if you want to be treated rude and get something to eat from a storage room

    a hot dog and french fries

    This was a nice place e for lunch after a day at the beach. Hotdog was cooked just how I like them split and fried. The fries were basic not bad just basic all in all nice if your in the area check them out

    Tri-tip on brioche bun.

    We walked into the Parlor after a poor experience at The Greek place next door. We were seated, given bread, and ignored at the Greek spot. At the Parlor we were warmly greeted, food came out quickly and nice and warm, and quality of food was superb! The tri-tip sandwich, fish and chips, and hot dog we collectively ordered did not disappoint. This will be my Ventura Harbor Village food spot from now on when I want to dine with a harbor view along the strip there.

    Great dining area, food was good, reasonably priced and did not charge extra for ranch dressing which is always a plus.

    Way, way, way disappointed. With all the hype about this place I now know people don't know what is good food. I ordered a Pineapple Burger but on the receipt it was listed as an Aloha Burger. The burger was dry and the size was what you would buy as a frozen patty pack at Costco, Smart N Final, etc. The pineapple had zero taste. The fries were most definitely frozen. Some of the fries had an air gap inside with little content of potato. The 12 oz. cup of runny milk shake was NOT worth $6.50. Carl's Jr and even McDonald's has better milk shakes than this. The Parlor is connected with Coastal Cone so although we ordered food at The Parlor the milk shake was made at Coastal Cone (the cup had Coastal Cone on it). Two burgers, onion rings, French fries, moca blast and a milk shake was $36.95. NOT worth it. Eat elsewhere. There is Five Guys with hand made fresh burgers less than 5 miles away. There is also a Red Robbins which has excellent trendy burgers.

    Bacon cheeseburger and fries.

    Decent little place. Convenient and quick. Prices were higher than it should be, but they can charge it because of there location I guess.

Parking: Paid lot, $1/hour for a max of 4 hours and then I think it was $10 for the day. Scan the QR code in the parking lot and pay on your phone. Seating: They have 2 patios (front and back) which are both dog friendly. We sat on the front patio which is fully enclosed and had the host not referred to it as a patio, I would have assumed it was just part of the indoor restaurant at a glance. Dog Friendly: My biggest gripe with this place and the reason I will not return is while they allow dogs, they require them to be stuck under the table, against the wall. Basically out of sight like some kind of vampire gremlin that can't see the sun. Their tables are not set up to have a whole dog underneath, especially if you have 2 or more people at the table. There is not enough room for feet, the dog, dog's water, and dog's food. What made this even more annoying is, 1) it wasn't busy on the front patio at all, and 2) the table diagonal from us had a toddler rolling around on the floor in the center of the walkway. Service: The host was very nice and friendly. Our server was polite but seemed to have the personality of a napkin. He hovered for the drink order, quickly returned for a food order, and right after ordering an appetizer, immediately returned to see if we wanted anything else. Already annoyed with the dog situation, I told him no (which was not the original plan). He snatched up the menus and couldn't be found until he brought the check. Food: I had the $20 medium crab dip appetizer which was okay, nothing memorable but nothing bad. The star was my dog's Surf N Turf dish with angus beef, wild cod, rice, and veggies for $13. I thought the price for hers was reasonable based on the quantity. They had several other options on the dog menu as well. One other thing to note, they call their fries "freedom fries" - maybe another reason not to return, if I needed one.

In Ventura's industrial area, the Cave is a nice, cozy restaurant that is hidden in the Ventura Wine Company shop. We were greeted by live music which made a lively atmosphere. They have the self vending wine machine with a decent variety of wines for all. I'm going to be honest - I did question the pour size. We ended up buying a bottle of wine at dinner instead and I'm pretty sure that was the economical choice plus it gave me peace of mind. I will say - the plating of the food is strange. Giant plates for small portions never really sits well with me. The kitchen's "thinly sliced" waygu steak was also off putting visually. The Jumbo Scallops w/Leek & Truffle Risotto ($46) is a must order. Scallops perfectly pan seared and that risotto I would eat by itself. The Lemon Chardonnay sauce was incredible. The Slow Braised Beef Short Ribs ($39) was okay. The meat fell apart as it should. The red wine sauce was okay but lacked depth. The creamy mashed potatoes were very good and seasoned perfectly. Wasn't mad that I tried it but would not order again. Wagyu Top Sirloin 12 oz. ($48) was very good despite the poor slicing. The creamy mushroom sauce was perfect to add some flavor but not overpower the protein. The Pepperoni Pizza ($18) was decent for my son. My daughter planned to order the Seafood Pasta until she saw all of her favorite things combined: Mac and cheese, bacon and pizza - the Mac and Cheese Pizza ($21) was honestly top notch. It wasn't overly heavy, the depth of flavor was great and it's extremely tasty. The spicy aioli was top notch. Overall, a good experience at the Cave. I recommend giving it a try.

The restaurant has a really cute Mediterranean/Italian vibe with gorgeous lemon trees and comfy patio seating. It was chilly outside, but the heaters made it comfortable. Staff was friendly, just very busy because of the holiday. Food took around an hour, but understandable for Mother's Day. The food was excellent. I got the flatbread with apricot jam and bacon, and it was such a good mix of sweet and savory with fresh arugula on top. Definitely recommend it.
