    Had a wonderful evening last night sharing the tasting menu with my wife. Kwan and Fred were incredibly kind - the service and the food were amazing! We sat in the bar area but the experience was one we'll remember!

    What a beautiful restaurant! Went here for my 30th birthday and did the tasting menu with three others. I’ve done quite a bit of fine dining, and this Michelin was a total hidden gem. Solid value, wonderful wait staff, cool location. The food was quite good (shoutout to the carrot + manchego dish, was unreal), though the fish and wagyu courses were not the best I’ve had. The pacing of the dinner was fantastic and everyone was knowledgeable and kind. I didn’t drink, but my dad had a couple excellent cocktails. They made my birthday so, so special! They comped two extra desserts, a round of drinks, and a tour of the kitchen. All in all, including bonus courses and the set menu, we had 18 dishes. I walked out full and beaming. Thank you to Chef and staff for a brilliant night!

    Valle is one of our favorite restaurants in San Diego. Everything from the food, wine, cocktails and service are exceptional.

    We came to Michelin Star Valle in Oceanside with high expectations, but unfortunately the food was disappointing. The dishes lacked flavor and imagination — fish courses tasted gamey, and the wagyu beef, which should have been melt-in-your-mouth tender, was chewy and uninspired. The pacing was also a bit off. Plates came out so quickly that we couldn’t finish the small 3 oz pours before the next dish arrived, which made the meal feel rushed. We were also brought on a tour of the kitchen after the meal. The space was brightly lit, sterile, and not at all the kind of intimate “chef’s counter” experience we expected to see. With groups constantly being walked through, it felt awkward and disruptive, especially for a couple trying to enjoy their dinner. Overall, very unfortunate — not the kind of thoughtful, flavorful, or memorable dining experience you’d expect from a place with such credentials. Space was beautiful and staff were absolutely lovely however.
