Aromas Grill — Restaurant in California

I came in with my brother who recommended the place, my husband and our two young children. The seating was nice, you can sit outside or in but in the Aromas weather I don't know who would choose indoors when the outdoors are so nice this time of year. Needless to say we sat outside. They had a covered patio with plenty of seating and table not cramped together. The parking was ok, a little tight behind the restaurant but street parking is also available. The waitress was nice, perky and prompt. Our food came out hot and delicious. We ordered deep fried artichoke hearts for the table, the portion was huge. I had the skirt steak, my food was cooked to my desired temperature and I was surprised by that since cooking a steak seems to be hard to many places nowadays, but not Aromas Grill, they got it spot on. My 2 year old got fries and taquitos. I didn't notice a kids menu so we just ordered off the appetizer menu for her and luckily it worked out ok. The fries came out really hot making my two year old not like them at first but once they cooled she loved them. My husband got the sea food qusadilla and he seemed to enjoy it. My brother got the lobster ravioli and it looked amazing. The prices we great, about $20 a plate but the food was delicious and the portions were more than enough. It felt like Santa Barbara food but without the Santa Barbara prices. I'm glad we were recommended to Aromas grill and we will...

I was rejected service today by the bartender J enny at 3:40pm. Never in my life has this happened to me. She had a personal problem with a party of mine outside of work place nothing to do w work. I asked can we get some service, and replied " i can't serve you guys" she said why ,i said I don't whats going on but if I can grab our drinks and take them to the patio so you guys don't see each other, she said NO. Pretty UNPROFESSIONAL! I like the town Aromas really friendly really sad they have people like that work there . Personal stuff is not to be at work place.......Mr Owner.....my concern?? I was disrespected! WE Never said or did anyone wrong. She(Jenny) could of said when we sat down her situation and we would of left... professionally but instead just smirked every time she walked by. Listen I'm 41 years old I don't have time for this . I'm just saying could of been professional. Mr Owner I've never been denied service anywhere , do your do diligence,I'm...

The Grill has seriously declined and it's truly a shame to see how far it's fallen. Every single time I order from here 75% of the tables orders are messed up or incorrect and then we're given attitude when we it bring up to the staff. The only reason anyone comes here is because it's literally the only option in Aromas. This last time however was so terrible that I will never come here ever again, which is a shame since I go once a week.

One order of our table of 6 was correct which was to be expected. We were given an attitude because unfortunately that's standard operating procedure. The icing on the cake though was that after paying the bill one of the ladies ran out to the patio and accused me of trying to skip my tab and demanded that I pay again. I had to open my email and show her my receipt and she went back inside. She came back out and we asked if everything was alright to which she snapped YES.

Needless to say the staff needs retraining in...
