Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Vista

Matsu really is a hidden gem! The service under their general manager Kim is amazing. The food is absolutely heads and tails above any other restaurant I have been to. Chef William creates amazing combinations and wonderful depth of flavor without ever losing the essence of the ingredients. Their monthly tsuki night is an amazing chance to try some of their wonderful food and interesting new test dishes as well! How Michelin have overlooked this gem for so long is beyond a mystery for me.

Do they need another 5 star review? Or another 5 star review from me? It's fabulous as usual. We are fortunate to have this in Carlsbad. Consistent quality, impeccable service. Keep it up!

It’s a very good restaurant. I can’t say we frequent the place but enjoy happy hour! Steven is a very good server and a better bartender!

AMAZING!! All of the food was phenomenal and so delicious!! Our server was very knowledgeable and helpful during our entire experience. Being vegan, it was such a treat being able to order anything and everything from the menu. The garden outside is very impressive and it's awesome knowing the food you're eating is grown right there. We can't wait to come back and try more dishes!

We had been to Brickman's for dinner a few days earlier and had an amazing truffle burger and salad (we both had the same) followed by a chocolate chip cookie desert that was fabulous. So we decided to try brunch. This is a no frills menu of all your favorite things, burger, pancakes, a twist on eggs benedict but my husbands eyes widened at the size of the breakfast burrito which was fabulous and I couldn't have been happier with my smoked salmon toast on sourdough bread. It was scrumptious. Add to that a perfect peach bellini (not too peach and not too sweet) and we call this brunch a success!
