Great Dining experience! Not a good place if you're in a hurry but, if you want a relaxing, delicious meal,, this is perfect. The food and the preparation were amazing!

After reading the reviews, we had high expectations, but we were disappointed. They had only one person doing everything (waiting, busing, cooking). I'm sure he did his best but came up short. We started with the coconut shrimp which were small over battered and overcooked. The salad was okay, but not exceptional. Then we waited thirty-five minutes for the entre. When it did arrive, we noticed that the other table got theirs at the same time which was odd since we were a half hour ahead of them. For the main course, I had the scallops. They were served on a cold plate which meant that halfway thru the meal the risotto was cold. The scallops were not nicely browned, but just warm and flavorless. And the abductor muscle was not removed. The asparagus was terrible, small, pale, and overcooked. Karin chose the ravioli which were okay but smothered in a very rich sauce which made them hard to find. Maybe we hit the place on a bad night, but the next time we decide to go out for "fine dining" we will look elsewhere. Doug and Karin

We made a reservation weeks in advance via Open Table for 8 pm on 11/27, confirmed through the app and arrived at the restaurant and the lights were off and no one there. Zero communication.

the ONLY reason for this rating is that it was CLOSED that night! Open Table confirmed the reservation. Our evening was ruined.It would be really nice if someone would respond.

Everything was first class. Eisha is a one man show: host, waiter, and chef. And he is fabulous at all three. The food and presentation were outstanding. So glad we ate here.

This restaurant is tops. The setting and menu are absolutely wonderful. Due to a staffing shortage, the chef was working by himself, deftly acting as host, server, and cook. He was calm and professional in all respects and made us an amazing meal. A define must for fine dining if you are anywhere near Manzanita. We will definitely be back.

Loved the music playlist. Wine list offerings paired nicely with the menu and is very reasonably priced. Will definitely come back.
