The Restaurant at Justin 11680 Chimney Rock Road, Paso Robles, CA 93446

"Justin's truly deserves its Michelin star for culinary excellence. From the amuse-bouche to dessert, each dish was exquisitely prepared and presented. The flavors were bold yet balanced - I especially enjoyed the Japanese A5 Wagyu Rib Eye and Local Halibut. What's more, the complimentary petit fours were a sweet surprise. While the bill reflected the fine dining experience, it was worth every penny. Thank you Justin and team for the awesome dinner - I'll be back!"

"It's a wonderful restaurant and definitely a 5 star experience. To be honest though, it was my least favorite Michelin Starred restaurant so far. But since they are all great, it still gets 5 stars. Service was impeccable, food was good with a couple of great dishes too. My primary issue is cost.. It was 225 for dinner = 110 for the wine pairing. I've just had other Top tier restaurants that felt more fair in their cost. And 110 for the wine pairing w/ the tiny pours feels too high. Should have just bought like 3 bottles for the table and shared them."

"Our four hour experience, on a perfect Spring evening, at an outdoor table (heated), w phenomenal & gracious (yet relaxed & personal) service, is one we shall long remember. Six unexpected Amuse-Bouches arrived at timely intervals, each interesting, satisfying and a prelude to the following course. All were paired with generous portions of seven different wines and limitless on-site reverse osmosis water (or fruit Mocktails). The presentations from Executive Chef Rachel Haggstrom and Pastry Chef Saree Musick reflected the newly earned Michelin Star & Green Star, while the service championed by Jason Santos reflects the honor of the Five Star Forbes rating - all told, one of 75 with this combination of awards & leadership."

"Beautiful atmosphere. The service needs a little refinement. When we arrived to check in the hostess did not communicate effectively to let us know what's is going on. She took our name and then just walked off. Eventually she came back about 10-15 minutes later and took us to our table which did not have enough chairs for 3 people. There seems to be an issue with what the restaurant has programmed in the Tock app. We made a lunch reservation and when we arrived we were advised the kitchen was closed and they are having issues with their reservation system. The manager was amazing and tried his absolute best to make it right and brought french fries and brussel sprouts. Then the server forgot to take an order from someone at the table. Maybe it's an off day but for the price point of this place and it being Michelin rated, I would expect a higher level of service and refinement. Maybe it's because it's off-season?"
