    Gardein - buffalo & Korean
    Zsanae K.

    Skinny margarita was mid. I come for the gardein wings. The buffalo is my fav flavore Korean ones were pretty good. Celery was fresh I wish they had vegan dressing to pair with them.

    Taco Flight

    Our wait time for a booth was 25 minutes but we were seated by 15. The waitress made her rounds pretty regularly so we were able to ask for hot sauce and salt when we wanted. Super busy and packed on a Saturday night. I like the device on every table that showed pictures of the food on the menu. I really like the taco flight. I got the Korean fried chicken, beer battered cod, and the birria. Very exciting flavors. I thought the chicken needed more sauce. It should be dripping with garlickiness. I think corn tortillas might hold the sauce better as the flour tortillas got soggy fast.

    Dined at the Yard House on a Friday night. We were told it would be a 45 minute wait. We went to the bar ordered a cocktail and 10 minutes later the bartender invited us to sit at the bar as two seats opened up. Turned out to be great because we decided to order our food and dine at the bar. We ordered the Poke nachos and Szechuan crispy beef noodles. Both delicious. Just about finished when our table became ready. It was way more fun for the two of to watch the bartenders in action.

    Good ! Came back after years. My friend's daughter had her bday dinner here. I got the chicken/ poke nachos and a beer . I always like the nachos ! So good ! I shared wit my friend. We were a big grupo and spilt checks .Sooooo awesome . No hassle , they were glad to do it.We were out on the patio and it was a bit chilly . They turned the heaters on for us . Overall good service for such a large group!

    Poke nachos
    Monica Y.

    Lots of seating and also patio seating. But for so many tables, it seems they are always understaffed and you have to look for your waiter and wave to them. They do have the ipads at the tables, but if you want something special you need to wait a lot to grab someone's attention. The food was ok. I did like the poke nachos, but the rest of the food was just blah. Parking is available because it in the Collection, but if you want something closer to the restaurant, you might not be able to get any spots. Good vibes for those seated at the bar. The rest of the place was ok

    Came here for a meeting lunch for happy hour and it was a great time. Though the cheese curds came out a little later than anticipated, they were hot and fresh. The chicken nachos are definitely a two-person meal or a "now and later" type of dish. At the start of happy hour it was very quiet, quiet enough to talk at normal levels. However the moment 5pm hit the traffic picked up! Our waitress was great and attentive to our needs. She checked in with us constantly. We always enjoy our time here.

    Love the drinks and service here. Always a good place to come with friends. Just be prepared to wait if you come on a busy night which honestly is everyday of the week I notice now. People come here to watch sports and a lot of team building tables during the evening like 2pm. Do the waitlist in person at the front desk. Don't rely on your phone for the waitlist. One time, I had put myself on the waitlist on the way and the server said it was not valid. Other than that, this place is the spot to be.

    I stopped by Yard House for happy hour and really enjoyed the experience. The drink specials were great and the appetizer selection had a lot of variety. Everything came out hot and tasty, especially the Brussels sprouts and pizza.

    Service was swift here, refilled our waters whenever we needed without asking. We got the poke nachos and the truffle fries, both were really good. Interior is cozy.

    I ordered the lobster noodles for New Year's and found that what I received was not what it looked online.

    Chicken Mac & Cheese
    Lisa V.

    The. Front staff were quick and accurate with wait times on a busy Sunday evening. The waitress was very nice and checked in with us. She separated our checks which we appreciated and we were able to pay at the table. The chicken Mac and cheese was good, nothing to write home about but fine. The chicken tortilla soup was NOT something I would EVER get again. It is a creamy white soup . I do not recommend it. The drinks were good and the cali roll stack was MASSIVE and well liked by the table!

    Do you guys serve brunch on Sundays?

    Hey Mariah! We don't serve brunch anymore but we do have brunch items on our regular menu, like Avocado Toast, Nashville Hot Chicken, mimosas, and Bloody Marys. We open at 11AM on Sunday!

    Is there an open mic night available for sign up? I'd like to come down and play some tunes.

    Hey! We do not have live music/open mic. nights at any of our restaurants.

    Old school Chinese restaurant…read more Booths, reasonably priced lunch specials that include soup, rice and a fortune cookie. Also, super hot tea in a pot to share, the Chinese year calendar placemats, big round tables for large parties (5+) and a backroom for even larger parties. Yolanda's downtown put in a separate little backroom when they remodeled, but hardly any other restaurants seem to have them anymore. Love the vibe, but if the food sucked we wouldn't go. And we go, we go a lot, we are regulars. FRESHEST vegetables, soft velveted chicken pieces, not hard tasteless rubber chicken, and served HOT, freshly made and quick. On the lunch special menu, I recommend the chicken with string beans that comes with a full flavored brown sauce or the milder chicken with vegetables with a colorless clear glaze, both with vegetables so fresh and perfectly cooked, they can restart a healthy habit eating week. Hub is a fan of the hot and sour soup that comes with the lunch specials. He says it's the best he's had, and he eats out almost everyday all over. Also he likes the hot mustard they have. I guess there's a difference and he says there's is authentic and the best. I get the egg flower, which is plainer and just what I want if tucking in for some hot cozy soup before chicken, rice and vegetables, both served piping hot. They used to serve an egg roll with the lunch special, but no more and the fried rice used to have vegetable squares in it, but now only soy sauce it seems, in case you haven't been here in a while and don't know. Last, the orange chicken is really good and used to be my usual lunch special, but it got knocked off that pedestal by the chicken and vegetables, which along with the chicken and string beans, is craveable.

    It's been a while since I've dined in at this restaurant, but I was recently there and the…read moreexperience was a little different. The older lady pointed to the table and I sat down. I sat for a little bit while the server was clearing the table next to mine to seat another party. I wasn't given a menu until that party was seated and given their menu. Almost immediately after the older lady approached to take my order but since I hadn't had time to look it over I asked for a minute, but I did order hot tea. After a few minutes I was ready to order. At that time the older lady still haven't brought me the tea. The server went to take the order of the table next to me, even though they were seated later than me, and then came to take my order. There were two times the server used my table to put things down that she couldn't hold on to when serving the table behind me. One was the water pitcher (I didn't have any water) and the second time was an empty bowl. She would grab it afterwards but didn't say anything at all both times. I thought that was a bit odd. Prices have gone up. They no longer give the fried wanton crisp with the lunch special. Fried rice was mainly rice, although I did find two little specks of egg. The soup also didn't seem to have as much ingredients as before either. Another thing I noticed was the tip percentages listed on the receipt was after tax. Although the food still tasted good, I will only stick to doing takeout from here.

    Great find in Ventura! Asian food has certainly come a looooong way since I was a kid!…read more Was needing a quick bite before swim finals. First, the gal who took our order was super friendly and helpful. The food was really good. Reminded me of We had the original chicken wings, japchae, kimbap, bulgogi bowl and the yuzu and grape ades. All of the dishes were wonderful. Chicken was nice and crispy --good flavor throughout and not greasy at all! The japchae had a great balance of flavors and the shiitake mushrooms, in particular, had really great flavor--must have been marinated for a long time to soak up all the juices! The kimbap was delicious! It was fresh and the pickle in it (Japanese call it takuan, idk what its name in Korean is) was super mild. It didn't overpower the other ingredients. The bulgogi was a solid dish. It had also the glass noodles on one side and plenty of meat and veggies. A good, well-rounded dish. We will come back for bing soo after the kid finishes finals, if it isn't too late! A local regular enthusiastically suggested we try it, so we will be back. The drinks were really delicious as well. Not too sweet and refreshing taste--I think each one is handmade individually. Overall, I highly recommend this place. It has all of the taste of real Korean home cooking at a good price point. You can get quality dishes in a casual in-and-out setting. We will be back for sure!

    I recently tried Matna, and overall the experience was just okay. The food wasn't bad, but the…read moreprices felt way too high for what you get. I ordered the bibimbap and some wings. The bibimbap was very standard -- nothing special or memorable about it. It tasted like a typical Korean bibimbap you can get at many other places, but here it was priced at $12.75, while I've seen similar dishes at other restaurants for under $8. The wings were the same story. A small portion of five wings costs $12.99, and while they tasted fine, they were just ordinary Korean fried wings. Nothing about them really stood out to justify the price. Overall, the food is decent, but there's nothing unique or special that makes the higher prices make sense. In my opinion, the only thing that stands out about this restaurant is that it's overpriced for what it offers.

    5/5 -- A Whole Vibe From First Sip to Last Bite!…read more I came in on a mission for a Michelada... and let me tell you, it delivered with main-character energy. 10/10, bold, balanced, and crafted like someone whispered all their secrets into the glass. Absolutely perfection. My mom ordered the chilaquiles and immediately said they tasted like they were made with love -- and honestly, so was that Michelada The food portions here? Massive. The "you're definitely leaving full and possibly needing a nap" kind of massive. Every plate passing by looked delicious, and everything we tried tasted even better. And please -- don't forget the beignets. Pillowy, warm, dusted in sweetness... they're the kind of treat that makes the world slow down for a moment. There is nothing on this menu that hits wrong. The service tied everything together. We were greeted by the sweetest hostess, Alina, who suggested the patio -- and she was right. Cozy heaters, comfy seating, the whole place glowing with good-vibe energy. It felt like the kind of spot you accidentally fall in love with. We'll absolutely be back.

    If you are a Ventura local, a mother or have babies/kids, please do not support!…read more It was sunny afternoon around 5:30 pm. There were only 3 tables occupied when we (my 2 year old and 2 month old) got there. It took about 10-15 mins to get seated. And the big waiter that sat us did NOT have spatial awareness. He knocked my toddler over with a chair who was trying to give him space when he was seating us. She fell hard on her head. The waiter did not even flinch/look at her to see if she's okay. He simply just stepped away like nothing happened. He sat us on the tiniest first seat on the right next to the window. This space is good for one person. Not for a mom with a big baby seat carrier and a toddler. They still crammed us there. There was no shade. The sun was hitting the newborn directly on the face. It is impossible to move and assist both kids. I saw a couple who came in after us got seated to a bigger booth. They had so much room. They also got shade. By 6:00 pm, the restaurant started getting packed. They sat a table of 10. The waiter who was friends with this party if 10 took their order then came to us later. We were starving. And it took so much power to just get out of the door with a newborn and toddler. But the waiter was too busy chatting with his friends (big party table). The big table got their food and drinks. We got ours 20 mins later. By the time we were halfway done, we drank all of our waters. We were thirsty. I was trying to give an eye contact to both my waiter and the waiter that sat us. The waiter that sat us kept giving me an eye contact the whole time but never came over. He ignored me. The only time someone came over was when a waitress (not our server) gave us our check. We asked for water. The waiter that gave me that eye contact all day but never helped finally came over to give us a water refill. There are way better places in Ventura that has consistently good service and food. This place is a no go. Huge disappointment. It doesn't feel like the staff carries that Ventura vibe. Not a nice crew. Stay away.

It was a slow night for them. As we arrived at the bar to check in and I have to say that there was not much joy in are presence. My husband presented the Groupon and she immediately said, "Yeah, were not taking those anymore" and mentioned the manager or owners name. My husband immediately showed her that the Groupon had not expired yet. She fiddled looking in the computer and eventually allowed us to sign the waiver and Ray led us to our lane. Listen, if the place was super busy and they were swamped, I could see why they would be bothered by a Groupon hassle. But that was NOT the case and the fact of the matter is, they did not apologize for doubting the validity of the Groupon. It was more like we were an annoyance that we came in at all. Didn't ask us if we wanted something to drink. Ray was excellent at his presentation and instruction, but we were the only people throwing at the time and I was having issues with even hitting the board with the metal part of the axe. Just a helpful hint for the throwers, you will have to get someone back over there by asking if you need anymore help. They are not going to volunteer to help you again. All and all it is a fun environment, but I doubt we will be going back anytime soon. You want to spend money in an establishment that wants you there. Not one that acts like you just pissed in their Cheerios by showing up. Fun place to try, but frustrating if you can't throw the axe correctly to make it stick to the wall.
