The name of this restaurant includes the words “fine dining”, and that is exactly what mom and I experienced. Our booth was at one end of the restaurant with one heck of a view through the wall of windows facing the I-15 and the hills in the distance. When we ordered the Fish & Chips as well as the Avocado BLT (minus the avocado), we did not realize just how much food was coming to our table! The Fish & Chips had four very large pieces instead of the standard two you get anywhere else. There was more fish than batter, which happens nowhere else. We have ordered this particular menu item from numerous other restaurants over the years, including Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco— and nobody has ever made it this darn good! Nobody!! The fish was so thick, you feel like a VIP when you sink your teeth into absolute perfection. The BLT didn’t get eaten in the restaurant. We had to have them give us boxes to take that home due to the fish being so filling. If you look at the photos I’m including, you’ll see two pieces of fish on the plate because mom and I split it. We got full quickly after some fries and one piece of fish each. We put the leftovers in the air fryer to keep the batter crispy, whereas a microwave would soften it and reduce the texture to less than delicious. That BLT is for the next day. You really get a lot of food on your plate! They are not chimsy with the portions. I honestly believe this meal is the go to lunch and I will definitely bring mom back here for lunch. The first impression really matters, and I can say that the customer service was a definite 10 on that 1-10 scale. Everyone was so friendly, and I asked to speak to the general manager so I could tell him how satisfied we were. Robert came to our table and he was truly a wonderful person. He welcomed us to ask for him again when we return. And yes Chef Deb, we will return! Thank you.

An absolutely beautiful view of Escondido while you enjoy five star service, food and ambiance. Ciarra is always kind, welcoming with a great personality and work ethic per my boss and I must agree. Celebration of a huge accomplishment of our organization and met some great people there.. Chef is amazing

A Memorable Birthday Celebration at Vintana Wine Dine ...During our stay at Wyndham Oceanside, we attended a presentation and asked for a recommendation for a great restaurant being seasoned travelers and food lovers. Without hesitation, Vintana Wine Dine was suggested, as we had already dined several times at 333 Pacific. I originally booked a 7:00 PM dinner reservation for my birthday, but made a last-minute change after checking the menu I was suddenly craving oysters and decided to switch to lunch instead. From the moment we arrived, the experience was exceptional. Madeleine at the reception warmly welcomed us and kindly asked us to wait a few minutes. I eagerly scanned the menu but didn’t see oysters listed. We mentioned this to Ron, our host, and told him to surprise us—we trusted him completely to make my birthday special. Ron took the lead, recommending the wine and food selections, and he did not disappoint. He was extremely polite, attentive, and professional. As first-time guests at Vintana, we truly wanted the experience to be unforgettable and Ron delivered 100%. He made us feel like family, not just customers. I highly recommend Vintana Wine Dine to anyone visiting the area. It’s a must-visit, and I especially look forward to dining with Ron again. Thank you for making my birthday so memorable. We can’t wait to return!

This was my husband’s and my first time going to Vintana. From the moment we told our Uber driver where we were headed, he immediately sang high praises of the restaurant, so our expectations were high. Vintana exceeded them. We went for Valentine’s Day, which featured a pre selected menu with a selection of signature dishes. The dinner included an appetizer, a main entree, and dessert. I had the grilled sea bass, and it was absolutely amazing. We will definitely return in the future!

Great dinner place to go as a couple or a group! We went here for New Year’s Eve. They made it festive with decorations and a preset menu to help things more quickly and smoothly with more people coming in. I had the short rib, and it was delicious!! Our server was friendly, helpful with my questions about gluten free options, and made our dinner a good experience. The views were beautiful. They had live music upstairs. We’d love to come back again!

I am no foodie, but overall, we had a good time and I have no regrets. I was not particularly hungry that night so my judgment of the food was not particularly clear or strong. The service was good and the views were pretty amazing!

Great experience! I went with my team from work and the happy hour special was great. Lots of options for 10 - everything pictured below except the desserts. Highly recommend the shishito peppers with pork belly, the ube cheesecake, and the warm butter cake. The ube milk punch was okay and same for the mud pie. Not my favorite. The place is huge with large windows to see a view of Escondido. Would definitely go back!

We came her for our 21st Anniversary Dinner with family from out of town. We all loved it! As soon as we walked in there was a trio playing live music and was soon escorted to our rsvpd table! The view of the sunset was beautiful from that view since the restaurant is on 2nd floor . The food was delicious. I had the sea bass, cream of spinach and some other plates ohh you got to try the llobster Mac n Cheese! And for appetizers the merenchino peppers with pork belly were soon good! A must! Ohh and the bread looked like huge mushrooms was so warm and light and it didn't blow my belly up afterwards even though I try to eat GF! So great stuff.
