"I can definitively say that the dining experience at Baracoa is one of the best I have ever experienced. Our server Gabi greeted my fiancé and I promptly with waters and suggestions about the menu, and checked on us frequently throughout the night. She was even so thoughtful as to ask if we wanted to take a picture of one of our drinks before she removed the smoking lid, how considerate! I personally tend to lean towards smaller portions, and when our food was brought to us, I thought there was no way I’d be able to finish it. I almost cleared my plate. Absolutely astonishing flavors. The Cuban coffee they deliver on to the MAX as well, stunning even the most discerning of coffee aficionados. All in all an incredible experience, thank you so much to Gabriella and the rest of the Baracoa team for an incredible night!!"

"Shogun Sushi is a small restaurant that you could be completely forgiven for missing as you drive past on an unlit evening. I'd encourage you not to do so. This quiet, clean, unrushed and utterly unpretentious establishment has seemingly one focus, and that is the quality of the sushi they prepare. I enjoyed a spicy tuna roll that was spot on in its subtlety and focus on the flavor of the tuna, something only done at restaurants not motivated to hide their lesser quality ingredients with an overabundance of heat. Likewise the salmon roll with scallop was a subtle and well-integrated dish, made carefully, and presented well. My appetite only permitted me to try the two rolls, but I'm now eager to go back with friends. There are many paths to disappointment and regret whilst attempting sushi in the AV. You may spend just a bit more here, but you will feel better about yourself (and likely just feel better) after you dine here.

"Very quiet when we walked in, host thought we were part of a private party so didn't seat us until we inquired. We were able to sit outside which was really nice. The decor is dated and minimal inside, outside is basic patio tables, but the view is pretty (overlooks the golf course). Ordered the Caprese press which was tasty and priced decently. The pasta salad that came with it was also really good. 4 stars for food! I'm giving 3 stars overall because of the service, however. Two men started smoking cigars on the patio right after we were sat. First off, it's illegal (as the sign posted above the door stated). Second, we had a child with us and the smell was so bad we all got headaches. We went inside and asked the manager if they could do something. She assured us she would. 15 minutes go by and the men are still puffing away, no manager in sight (I had a clear view and since there were so few people I know they didn't come out). We then asked the waiter, and he said his hands were tied. He wasn't allowed to say anything. The men finally finished up and left after we were mostly done with our food. Definitely put a damper on our lunch. Hoping the staff grows a backbone in the future."

Jasmine Thai

Carte • Thai • Soup • Asian • Chicken

"Some of the tastiest food I've had in the entire Antelope Valley. Unfortunately we ate all the food before I got any pictures, but I can definitely reiterate what many of the reviews said--don't judge the outside, because the food is incredible. We tried some of everything, including the chicken satay, shrimp fried rice, chicken pad Thai, red curry, broccoli stir fry, and pad kee mao, and we weren't disappointed in anything. Even the mango sticky rice for dessert was delicious, and the portions of everything make for easy sharing. My biggest complaint would be that I can't come here with just one or two people, because there were too many good things on the menu. We'll definitely be back!

"Great food not normally a long wait times they seem to change the food often so there is normally new dishes to try every few months most of the time the fish is cooked to perfection however there have been a few times when it was just way over cooked. The atmosphere is normally clean parking is best if you park on the side and sometimes can be congested. Service: Dine in"
