The Alchemists' Garden

Dinner at The Alchemists' Garden with my husband was wonderful from start to finish! Our days were filled with wine tasting, so having some fun, delicious cocktails was a breath of fresh air. The drink menu is extensive, so good luck picking just one! For dinner we shared the Skirt Steak and Fries. The fries were addicting and the flavorful steak was cooked perfectly. For dessert we shared the banana split, which my husband said was one of his favorite desserts he's ever had. Matt was our server, and he was fabulous!

The space feels so thoughtfully designed — cozy, creative, and full of character. The food is fantastic; literally everything I tried was delicious, especially the salads! And the cocktails — OMG! On another level. Still haunted by the Esoteric Mood and Belladonna :) The staff were genuinely kind and attentive, and the whole experience never felt rushed. Every time I’m driving through Paso, I’ll be stopping here. It’s one of those places that just makes you feel good.

Such a great experience here! Came with my husband and our little dog. Sat on the patio and enjoyed two of the best cocktails we’ve ever had. The gin cocktail with lavender foam was out of this world. And our server was lovely. Sit at the patio bar and enjoy views of the square!

Very unique dining experience. Very high-end bar with world-class bartenders. They have great seasonal cocktails and the bartenders can make nearly anything you would ask for. Their food is incredible and unique. Overall the restaurant holds to its name. The combination of flavors from food and drink really feels like Alchemy.

Great place! Food and drinks were great! Meeting the chef was awesome and my family was happy to have found this hidden gem in central CA. 100 would recommend to anyone visiting Paso - you must stop by and have a drink at the Alchemist Garden!

Good spot to imbibe exotics while overlooking the town square. The food was generally good (the flank steak was terrific), but you're going to pay handsomely.

DRINKS: the Alchemist gold and the non-alcoholic cocktail options were the stars of the show here. Really creative takes on classics, and beautifully presented. FOOD: The tuna tostadas were a lovely, fresh appetizer. The duck in the duck pasta fell off the bone and was delightfully flavorful. The vegetarian pesto lasagna was packed full of beautiful vegetables but I didn’t realize it didn’t have any pasta in it - still delicious though. DESSERT: The banana split was excellent. Decadent and a great item to round out the meal. Unexpectedly ate every last bite despite being very full.

This was such a great place! Friendly service. We sat outside with a heater and we're not cold at all. Food came out quickly and was delicious. We had the curried deviled eggs, veggie lasagna and corn risotto and banana brulee split. All delicious!

Drinks were great, highly recommend bees? Service? Phenomenal. Thanks Matt. Cool plants & outdoor patio seemed nice. Wouldn't know. Wasn't sat there. Speakeasy? Heard it was cool, too busy. Must be. But the indoor was rad. Overall would come back 10/10

Food and drinks were tasty and on point. Ambiance was relaxed and friendly. Matt provided welcoming service. Great place for a date night or immersed dining experience.

Matt was awesome tonight! We had the mushrooms, bread and butter, and fries. Everything was great.

My partner and I were visiting Paso for the first time and stumbled across this place on yelp. We are so glad we did. The food was delicious. Highly recommend the tiger prawns. And our cocktails were delicious. You could tell they put a lot of thought into the cocktails like works of art. OC and Jacob took care of us all night and were very friendly and knowledgeable. Great recommendations. Would definitely come back!

Real rating is a hard 3.5 but I can't pop a full 4. Everything we had was just increasingly average. It's definitely built to be a "scene", and the quality of the food and the drinks are not taking as seriously as the atmosphere. Went there on Taco Tuesday, the steak taco was definitely the best thing I ate. The duck taco, the duck chalupa, the duck pasta, I guess we had a lot of duck, and it was all okay, nothing popping off. Also had the burrata, which is always good, and deviled eggs which I would definitely skip. The cocktails were good enough for sure and the atmosphere really was awesome. If you're looking to have a good time with good people you probably won't be disappointed!

We love coming here every time we come up to paso! They have amazing drinks and the food is also very good. We always make sure to buy some merch because their shirts are very cool. If you want some great service, some great drinks and great food you can definitely stop here for a good time!

This place is such a vibe. We sat outside on the patio and we had the pleasure of enjoying the smell of the jasmines to ourselves for some time before the other tables started to fill up. We tried a few cocktails and ordered dinner. We had the duck pasta and the pork chop. The pasta lacked the taste of duck and the noodles were too denti for me. The pork chop however was so tasty and juicy. The service was great and we were checked on often throughout our meal. Such a treat- it almost felt like we had the patio all to ourselves.

I had a super excellent meal here. Would definitely come back. Dessert was particularly excellent.

Spent the weekend in Paso Robles for my husband's birthday and chose Alchemist Garden for his birthday dinner-- we had a wonderful experience! Just a heads up, parking can be tough on the weekends in downtown Paso, so definitely plan to arrive early. We were glad we made a reservation too-- there was a line out the door when we arrived. The restaurant is super cute and aesthetic, with lots of plants and simple decor. Our server was friendly and helpful from the start. For drinks, my husband ordered the Alchemist Gold, which came in a smoky box--it was a cool presentation! I told our server I liked piña coladas, and he brought me the perfect tropical drink. We shared the bone marrow and the prime rib special (double the usual portion) with a side of potatoes. The bone marrow was rich and flavorful, and the prime rib was cooked perfectly--we were absolutely stuffed by the end! A couple of small downsides: - Everything is a bit pricey, which we expected for a special night out, but just something to keep in mind. - The tables are pretty close together. The group next to us kept chatting with us for whatever reason-- it wasn't a huge deal, but it did take away from the intimate birthday dinner vibe a bit. - Not necessarily a negative but we were a little surprised that nothing special was offered or noted for my husband's birthday--not even a small dessert or mention--which would've been a nice gesture. All that said, we had a great time overall and would definitely come back for another date night or celebration if we're ever in the area!

(Overall: A+) - I found Alchemist's Garden to be a spot that hits all the right notes; every single dish uses a culmination of flavors from various cultures that truly embrace the California fusion cuisine done well with those fresh, bright, and complex flavors. The ambience is alluring, being very spacious and painting this interior garden-in-a-castle type vibe. The staff are very knowledgable about the menu, sophisticated in word choice to describe each dish, and most importantly kind and attentive. The restaurant runs a bit pricey for the plates, but not the drinks; highly recommend for those in the central coast! (Taurus: A+) - Love the intricate complexities with this drink -- starts with a classic citrus-forward Japanese whiskey style cocktail, then elevated with some earthy umami notes coming from the truffle oil and truffle salt to embrace that mushroom cup design; this is a cocktail that keeps on giving! (Baby Carrots: A) - Quite a pricey plate of carrots at $18, but the seasoning game is on point! Love the usage of maple to give it that earthy sweetness, which pairs texturally and flavorfully well with the toasted almonds and sprinkle of chili. (Harissa Prawns: A) - Beautifully presented and well thought out dish to serve the prawns halved and easy to peel. I like the lightness of all components, with mild garlic sauce to pair with the light harissa spice coating. I think the pickled cucumber could've benefitted from a stronger pickle in both sugar and salt though as it tastes quite watery. (Skirt Steak: B) - The flavors are conceptually interesting with a coffee rub paired with a chimichurri, but I would've liked to see more of both of those components foe the bitterness and acidity to balance the multiple components of sweet potato. Steak is impressively tender. Food: +1 Presentation: +1 Price: E Atmosphere: +1 Service: +1 Menu: +2 Overall: A+ Insta/Beli/TikTok: @amei_eats

Our group stopped by Alchemists' Garden for a late night dinner after visiting Sensorio. We had reservations and upon arrival, we were promptly seated. The restaurant was busy, but it wasn't too crowded. We ordered a little bit of everything and it was all good. The drinks were definitely the highlights though. All in all, Alchemists' Garden was a good spot late night spot in Paso.

BEWARE: Do not make a reservation unless you are 100% certain you can be there on time! I made a reservation in anticipation of traveling to Paso for a wedding, but when I checked historic traffic patterns, realized we might not make it on time. I called and asked the restaurant: "Can I still cancel without being charged?" They said, "Yes, not a problem, we will cancel it for you!" And then the next day I was charged a cancellation fee. I called the restaurant to discuss and they said they would not do anything for me but that I could email the owner. I emailed and received no reply. My friends and I did go over to the restaurant once we arrived that evening and there was a 1.5 hour wait to get in, so clearly they were not hurt in any way by our cancelling. It's really disappointing to see a restaurant like this offer such poor customer service.

For cocktails, they are five star. We were impressed with each one we tried and the belladonna was a spectacular sight. The service was excellent and we enjoyed our bar table. Make reservations if you want to ensure seating. Some of the food was terrific, like the green bean salad and some was less good. Ok, the fries were delicious too. The carrots were okay but we would have preferred some char on them. Sadly, our pork chop was overdone. It could have been terrific. The brûléed banana split was good but I wish the banana had been riper to bring out its sweetness to contrast with the brûlée. That said, we'd still recommend and return to this restaurant.

The food and ambiance were great, I loved the witchy vibes and the amazing service. Matt was an awesome server, I can't wait to come back and try more items!

This is a cute little spot. The vibe great. The service was pretty good. Our server Jacob was very nice and attentive. The drinks were a hit. The Alchemists Gold came out in a cool, smoking case. It tasted very smooth. Other drinks we tried were the Nicolas Flamel and Meetings with Faustus, all very good. The food was pretty good. I had the pork chops which were quite generous and tasty. We also had the Skirt Steak, which was also tasty and tender. The Deviled Eggs and Wild Prawns were excellent as well. We enjoyed the food, although we thought it was a little pricey.

My boyfriend and I went for dinner and drinks on Valentine's Weekend... the food was delicious, the drinks were amazing and the service was very cool! We had a great time! We will definitely be coming back here when we are in Paso Robles. I love the red rose touch for Valentine's.

Girls dinner was so fun!! We happened to have the prefixed menu for Valentines day which was so incredibly fun and interactive. Nick was our server and Tony was our bartender/sommelier. We added the wine pairing with the dinner and it was so perfect except a few of the pours seemed a little on the light side even though the expectation was 2 oz pours. There were a few things that kept it from being a 5 star experience like our tiger prawns were overcooked, a few of us experienced shell/dirt in our oyster so it felt like they weren't well prepped.

Walked in to this place around 8/9PM and we didn't wait long! The place was pretty spacious, but me and my friend got seated in the backyard area which was super cute and had a nice vibe. There were heaters so it wasn't cold at all. The service here was really nice! The waiters were super nice and gave us recs for drinks, and checked up on us a good amount of times, and refilled our waters. Something that's really unique about this cocktail spot is that they make a drink for each star sign when it's the season! I'm a Capricorn so of course i had to order the Capricorn drink! It was really good!! (Especially for being bourbon which I'm normally not a fan of) it was kind of spiced, and tasted "warm" if u no what i mean LOL. It was iced tho. And It came with a really cute Capricorn card! I forgot what cocktail my friend got but it was equally as tasty! The bone marrow was DELICIOUS. Def expensive but i just love bone marrow so i had to have it. I'd say my only complaint is there were too many cranberries on top, but it was still really good! Overall great vibe and service, and had a good time here :) would def visit again if I were in the area!

Flavorful food. Flavorful drinks. Friendly staff. We ordered some fries to share which comes with goat cheese ranch. The alchemist Caesar salad is turned up a notch with that Black Sea salt and do add any protein to it. I added shrimp and they were juicy juicy. The pesto veggie lasagna is also hearty and creamy. Everything was GOOD. Do get the Bruleed Banana Split for dessert: salted caramel sauce, chocolate, peanut butter mousse, hazelnut gelato & luxardo cherries They have a drink special based on the current zodiac sign, so this time it was the Aquarius drink. A cute fun idea! This place is a must when visiting Paso Robles!

Beautiful menu design with unique drink recipes. It is great that they list the family of cocktails from which the drink is based. Will definitely try next time. Our servers were so helpful in setting the adventurous tone and guiding us through their favorite recommendations. Bunch of Fries were great. Loved that they were super flat which made them extra crispy and flavorful and easy to lie on the dips and sauces. Fondue and goat cheese ranch dip were both tasty. Croquettes were nicely fried. A little more sauce for each would have been great. Cheese platter was fine. I really liked the arugula based toppings for the pork chop. It was crunchy. I like my chops thicker and a little less well done. The duck pasta sauce was really good. But again, I just like my proteins with shorter cooking times. Will ask next time if that is possible.

I'm a bit obsessed with The Alchemist's Garden. They serve some of the most creative cocktails in town within an enchanting atmosphere. All the greenery in the bar and back patio makes you feel like you're in a vibrant forest. The host and servers are incredibly kind and the service has been quick. Each drink is thoughtfully crafted with a twist on classic cocktails, elevating flavors and complexity. Alchemist's Gold: much like an old fashioned but with crème de banana and cinnamon 7.7.7: similar to a Cosmo, but with cardamom, orange & angostura bitters, and egg whites When Faustus Met Mateo: sun dried tomato & olive oil gin, apple & tarragon shrub mediterranean tonic Nicolas Flamel: chipotle infused tequila, fresh lime juice, lapsang, souchong tea, and agave During my last visit, I had the Turmeric Deviled Eggs, Alchemist Caesar Salad, Mushroom Medley and Bone Marrow. Everything was flavorful and delicious. I'd order all these again. Love that you don't need reservations here. Just give the host your name and number (if there's a wait) and the wait usually isn't long either.

Alchemists Garden is always a must when we come to Paso. I love the zodiac drinks and everything is so delicious!! I wouldn't say it's catered to kids, and that's ok! That said my son still loves it. He got the prawns and said they must have the best chefs in the world here! Haha. And our service is always great. Especially this past visit with Keeli, she went above and beyond for our special lunch.

We stopped in Paso Robles for a night on our way from Las Vegas to Sonoma and were lucky enough to snag a patio table at The Alchemist's Garden--dog-friendly and right across from a beautiful park. The vibe was relaxed and welcoming, and our server was incredibly friendly and attentive. We started with the "bunch of fries," which was the perfect shared snack to kick things off. For dinner, we had the nightly special--a creative and flavorful take on fried chicken and biscuits--and the steak, both of which were absolutely delicious. The cocktails were a real highlight: I had "Meetings with Faustus," a unique and refreshing spin on a gin and tonic, and my husband had the "Garden Spear," which was equally inventive and tasty. Everything from the ambiance to the service to the food and drinks made this an unforgettable stop. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Paso Robles, especially if you appreciate thoughtful, well-crafted cocktails and a dog-friendly patio!

This review is based on my particular visit, which took place on a Monday evening, with kids. A number of odd shortcomings amounted to a less than stellar experience. If the context of our time at The Alchemists' Garden was perhaps among adults on a weekend, it might have been a different story. We were hesitant to stay given that there were no offerings available for kids, but a waiter passing by who overheard our predicament encouraged us to stay, stating that they could modify the "duck pasta" dish to make it a simple butter noodle and assured us that "..we feed kids". After some hesitation, and given his suggestion, we decided to stay. After we settled in, we were informed that the kitchen was out of lasagna, pork chops and deviled eggs, two of the three dishes we planned to order. We placed our appetizer order of croquettes and french fries, and when we proceeded to order the modified duck pasta dish to be served as a simple butter noodle for the kids, we were informed that we would have to pay the full price of $36 even given the modification. I thought this was absurd and a bit of a misleading suggestion by the waiter in the first place. The Excelsior Chardonnay I ordered had a very bad taste to me personally, adding insult to injury. The grand finale was a curly short piece of hair on the green cloth napkin on the table that I mistook for a "tablecloth." I was completely grossed out. The atmosphere was beautiful and the patrons were an eclectic mix spanning cultures and ages. There were a handful of interesting dogs in the outdoor patio seating area. The cream corn risotto dish was just ok. Definitely not worth our visit. The Skirt Steak was underwhelming. I am saddened to have to give The Alchemists' Garden such a low rating but it was surely a comedy of errors on our visit. The menu was beautiful. Weird occult vibes.

Simply wonderful in every way! We were passing by and were lucky on a busy Saturday night to get bar seating. Ordered the Alchemist's salad(amazing!) and the pan seared Halibut. So delicious and flavorful-not drowning in oil,butter and fat-just pure deliciousness. Cooked perfectly. Jessica was a fantastic server and fun to watch as a bartender-she is an artist! Highly recommend and we will be back again and again!

One of my highlights during our trip to Paso Robles. Our reservation was for 7:30 and we were seated immediately upon arrival. The high ceiling and plants creates a very alluring atmosphere. The waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and had detailed recommendations ready for both the food and drinks based on our interests. I loved how the cocktail I got was unique--almost savory, quite complex. Favorites of mine were the croquettes, which were well fried, the burrata crostini, which was a reasonable portion and fresh tasting with the strawberries and the toasted hunks of bread, and the brûléed banana split dessert--so decadent and the toasted banana was delicious! A must visit here in Paso Robles.

What a unique restaurant name! My visit to Paso Robles definitely included a stop here. Loved the decor and vibe in this restaurant. The menus were so beautiful and fun to look at. The service was great. He was very attentive and gave us great recommendations on dinner.

We made a family trip to Paso to get away for the weekend, pick up some wine from various wine clubs, and go out to dinner. While Alchemists' Garden seems to be famous for their cocktails, after having a big day of wine tasting, we elected to go with water and just get food. The food overall was pretty good. The Pork Chop is what they are famous for and it was well flavored and tasty. The Tiger Prawns were also very good. We got the Corn Risotto which was OK, but not the best. The Duck Pasta was also good, but I would have liked more noodles. Everything with the food was fine except the Pork Chop. As we started cutting it closer to the bone, the food started getting more rare / raw. As we got to the thicker part by the bone, it literally looked raw. We asked out waitress if this was normal and her first reaction was the it was. Then she came back 2 min later and said she would like to show it to the chef to make sure. The chef did say that it was undercooked, and said he would like to make it again. By the point, we were a bit full, so didn't really want to eat another one. She did offer us a banana split for dessert, which was nice though. There was always room for dessert, and the the banana split was very good! Probably would have been better to just take the pork chop off the bill, but I didn't want to make a big deal about it. Ambiance for the place is nice. It's in a good location and feels like an "Alchemists' Garden"

Foodie beware....I NEVER came here. Never experienced this place bc I couldn't make it and the price of making a reservation here is very evident and unseen till it was too late. The penalty for a cancellation on Tok: a $10 per head penalty for not taking one sip of a cocktail or eating one bite of an entree or starter. Do NOT do this to your customers. It won't end well for future guests... Never ever will come here --- regardless of how good it is and the praises from others bc I and a date could not make this reservation for forces beyond my control and now I'll pay for it. Sorry but this policy hurts the customer and tbh it feels like a greedy way to make a buck. If it was a no show i could understand but a day of cancellation is really not cool. I'm sorry but you are not the Russian Tea Room :-(

Skip this place for dinner. They have a drinks only side from what I saw when I made the reservation and I've got to think that the high ratings must be from the drink only side. I'll start with the positive, cute place, good service and the drinks were good. Unfortunately I was there to eat and this was the worst dinner I've had in a long time. The food came out faster than a McDonalds drive thru, not really what you want when you are spending a night out but ok let's try it. The halibut was inedible. I don't know what an old sock tastes like but I can only imagine it's close to this. I took one bite, gave it a minute, tried it again and then made my husband taste who agreed that it was horrible. He ordered the 18 ounce pork chop which was ok so we ate that. It was still extremely under seasoned. Would have loved some salt on that chop! Also had the fries with truffle sauce, the fries were actually good but the sauce was separating and not great. Asked for ketchup instead.

I've been wanting to come check out the Alchemists' garden for a couple years and so glad finally made it here. Stopped in after dinner for some drinks and dessert and couldn't have had better service and experience. Dark and romantic ambiance with lots of greenery, making you feel like you are truly in a garden. With a vast menu, they have options for everyone. We ordered the 777 (cosmopolitan like) and the zodiac sun sign drink (vodka). Both delicious and beautiful. We also order the brûléed banana split- a must try!! Overall such a gorgeous location with dazzling drinks and dessert. Can't wait to visit again and enjoy dinner too!

The Alchemists' Garden is a beautiful restaurant located in downtown Paso Robles. The cocktails are works of art, both visually and tastefully. There are crafted drinks and the option to ask the bartender to create a drink based on your taste preferences. Foodwise, we got items to share and nibble on. The service is attentive here. As it does get quite busy here, I recommend making a reservation.

Perfect light dinner spot in downtown. The menu highlights many vegetarian and vegan options! Everything is clean, fresh and sophisticated. We got the astrology special drink- the Pisces- to celebrate my birthday! Everything was tasty, but it is light and healthy fair, like being in a lovely botanical garden for your palate.

This spot is a gem. They are very accommodating, welcoming, and overall has such a great vibe. Everything is clean and servers are attentive. I have a little one under 1 and they accommodated us to sit comfortably. The drinks and food are all tasty and unique. The bone marrow with the luge (shot of brandy) is an absolute must!

The food was good, drinks were interesting and tasty, and the service was ok. Our waiter didn't really smile and served our food at different times. Ex. Fries with fondue... fries were served 5 min before the fondue. Like why? Ambiance was very nice!

Alchemist kitchen - we can't say enough about the food, service, atmosphere - it has it all. It's our go-to for dinner in Paso. Our second night in a row and the food never disappoints. Our server, Cassie, was wonderful!! Accommodating, prompt, attentive ... and after two nights of dinner service was gracious and welcoming. Always an amazing time at Alchemist!

We loved our visit!!! It was a girls day and we got to enjoy Paso and all of its lovely shopping! This stop was a perfect evening stop to get some drinks and an appetizer! So happy we stopped in!

A somewhat quirky casual restaurant in the heart of downtown Paso Robles, this restaurant serves a variety of food that should satisfy just about any palate. Given the curiosities on the menu, there is a real danger of ordering too much food. The cocktail menu is interesting with twists on some well known cocktails, and done original concoctions such as the 'Zodiac Cocktail' which is an offering that changes each month. The highlight for me was the yellowfin tostadas (matcha tuna sashimi, jalapeno avocado mousse, peppers, cilantro, pineapple, salsa negra, lime). It was a perfect blending of sashimi and pizza -- delicious! My wife had the cream corn risotto and enjoyed it very much. The only misfire was the red romaine Caesar salad. It was covered in so much grated Parmesan that at first glance it was hard to tell what was underneath! The salad tasted all right but the appearance needed help. Service was attentive and pleasant without being overbearing.

I have Celiac and Alchemist's Garden is a dream! I can eat most things here and there food is creative, exciting, and you can tell that the ingredients and preparation are of the utmost quality. Grace Crose, our server, was a delight-- she gave excellent recommendations and was so nice and funny! The music playing in the restaurant was also lovely and we really enjoyed sitting on the patio and watching the sunset on the town square. This is a really special place.

Sucha a wonderful experience! Would absolutely recommend. My only annoyance was that there were only two of us, because I wanted to try so many more things! Things we ordered: *Burrata - this was delicious! Not only was the burrata delicious (as expected), but the strawberries and peaches made it even better! *Deviled eggs - these were unique! I wish they were a bit more "fluffy" but that's me nitpicking! *Sea bass - my friend had this and she loved it. *Duck pasta - I ordered this and nearly licked my plate clean! For dessert, I got a little greedy so we got the cheesecake and bruleed banana split. Both of these were amazing! The cheesecake was light and fluffy and the banana split was perfection - the ice cream absolutely perfect for the pairing! We also tried a few drinks! It was my friend's birthday so she got the virgo drink and then went back for seconds. It was absolutely unique and I loved the cart presentation. I had the Nicolas Flamel, which I asked to have extra spicy and it was perfection (good balance of heat and flavor), and then I had the know your roots, which was lovely! The service was also top notch, attentive, but not overly intrusive. Would highly recommend and can't wait to come back!

Best servers ever! I wish i remembered the name of the guy but he was so attentive and nice! 5/5 on ambience and it's a green wonderland in there. It's super cute and has great food. My go to place if I were to go back to Paso Robles again.

Always amazing food, service and cocktails. Tiny (one of the owners) is an amazing mixologist and so passionate about what he does.

Really nice place in downtown area. Food was delicious but alittle on the skimpy side overall. Cocktails and mocktails unique and tasty but definitely pricey. I appreciate the attentive service but maybe not quite so much attention. Overall very nice.

We stopped by for some drinks before going to sensorio lights. It's located in the heart of downtown Paso Robles which is beautiful to visit and stay in. We didn't make any reservations (which I suggest you do), but was seated with no issues. Matt who was our waiter had the best patience for us and recommended all the specials with great knowledge and drinks too! We ordered the gold alchemist, 2 of the astrology drinks for the month, and one hamachi. The gold alchemist is their version of the old fashioned but served with a wooden box filled with smoke and good glitter; hence the name gold alchemist. The astrology drink of the month was the Virgo that comes with a lot of ice, and done in a way that is definitely instagram worthy to share with your friends. It also comes with a cute tarot card! The hamachi was the best part of the dinner as it's served with a lot of oil, mushrooms that is harvest locally, and cooked to about medium. All in all, while we came for drinks and ended up food, this place does much more than that and provides such a chill place to start your night. Definitely stop by!

We were in town for the weekend and booked this place because it looked interesting. Needless to say we were not disappointed. The drinks were great, the food was tasty and you get rather larger than expected portions. Service was attentive and personable. Our server Jessica was especially a pleasure to be served by. The space was open and airy with high ceilings. It does get a bit loud in there if there are large parties, but otherwise was a pleasant experience Would recommend a visit if you're in town!

The ambiance of the place is wonderful! We sat at the low seating, at the bar. I loved the fresh plants all around, the noise level was perfect for dinner. The female bartender was AMAZING. She made us cocktails based on the alcohol we like, that were not on the menu. We had three different small plates. The tostadas and prawns were to die for. VERY flavorful, delicious and well balanced. The croquettes were good too but compared to the other two dishes, they were not as flavorful. We shared the banana split for dessert.

Love the creative craft cocktail and food menu! You MUST GET the roasted bone marrow with caramelized onion and cherries! We got lots of marrow in ours and loaded the bread up topped with the cherry onion jam. 5 stars all the way! Pair the bone marrow with some delicious drinks! got the belladonna, and was delighted it was lit on fire tableside. The alchemists gold also came in a smoker box. Excellent presentation. We got the deviled eggs as well, which sounded interesting with the pickled turmeric and cardamom but found the egg whites rubbery (this was due to the pickling, I've tried this at home before) and the filling a bit more dry/powdery in texture than creamy. They ran out of a few things at the last seating at the end of a three day weekend (croquettes, steak), so if you have your heart on something on the food menu, go early! I made rezzies on Tock for 10pm on Sunday (Memorial Day weekend). 10pm is the last seating. Nick was our server and he provided awesome service. We had already had an early dinner at 5pm so this was like a nightcap for us. He didn't pressure us to order more, and made sure we were all set before the kitchen closed. Would definitely go back for a full dinner and more drinks next time we're in town.

This is a must try place. We showed up without a reservation and were seated in a low top at the bar. It was actually quite comfortable and the bartenders took great care of us. The food was ahhhhmazing and the drinks were ever better. The martini and fries were lovely. Those fries alone are worth ordering. The pork chop was fatty, and savory. Will definitely be back when I'm in Paso Robles!

Stopped in here for a cocktail or two before dinner, and we had such a fun time! I got their monthly zodiac, which is a creative monthly cocktail, and it was delicious. Also, the bartender Grace was really helpful and knowledgeable about the options, and everything she made was unique and delicious. We're looking forward to returning and hopefully we'll eventually try the whole menu.
