Let me tell you, the prices at this kosher restaurant were so high, I thought I was paying for my adult bar mitzvah! I mean, I get that kosher food is supposed to be a little more expensive, but this was just ridiculous. I'm not Jewish, but I am in the top 1% of Doja Cat listeners on Amazon music. With that being said, I have an extensive background in jewish customs/food.
I ordered the salad and soup for the first course. The salad had huge chunks of greens in them, while colorful, it had very little dressing. The girls at PJ's entertainment across the freeway had more dressing than this salad. They're also easier to toss than the big prehistoric greens served here.
The second and main courses were so small and average tasting. I had the veal meatball and the chicken. If this meatball is worth $40, my can of chef boyardi's ravioli can be too.
Usually when you order chicken at a fine restaurant, you get a half chicken or two chicken breasts. Not here. Here you get one breast. One breast, for $40. Again, PJs gives you two pairs for that price.
I left the restaurant feeling like I just dropped my ex off from a date - unsatisfied and ripped off.
As such, guess where I went afterwards for some real food? And by real food I mean tacos. That's right, PJ's...
Read moreHerzog is wonderful. The tasting room is great. The servers are all nice, and a couple have become my friends. The other customers are usually really nice too, I've had fun conversations with the other guests at the bar on random evenings. The atmosphere is casual and fun. The wines are great. The selection is massive so if you don't like the wine you're tasting, just try another. The flights are always fun, the servers are knowledgeable.The food is fantastic! Starters are great to pair with the tasting flights! They have wines for $100 a bottle, and some for $10. The lowest priced wines are still delicious. All the Baron Herzog wines are great. I have become spoiled on their wines so that I only want the ones I get from there. I am a member and I really just love this place. It's so much fun to visit, I've never had anything but an...
Read moreWe went there as a party of 8 for my cousins birthday and when we ordered our meal, I can honestly say I have never been more disappointed at a restaurant before in my life. The steak had no flavor and it looked like it was boiled. And the lamb (even though the waiter told us it was 10oz) it was no bigger than a 4oz steak. In addition to that, 4 of my friends ended up being sick the same night and a couple the day after. We tried calling the restaurant for 3 days in a row, and every time we got a hold of them, they told me that the manager will call us back and he never did. I tried to dispute the charges and they told my bank that they never received the call from them. I will never step my foot in this place ever again and definitely urge people to not go especially with such high prices they charge for low grade food...
