   Hate to say this but Fearing’s has seen better days. It used to be the place you brought out of town guests to showcase southwestern flavors. But now it just seems stale. I had not been for a couple years—the last few times were subpar experiences—but thought we’d give it another try for our party of 9. I will say that my wagu ribeye was outstanding. But everything else—from the tepid tortilla soup, odd tasting lamb amuse bouche, uneven filets, greasy Brussels sprouts—was really disappointing. My dinner guest ordered the lobster and filet and ate almost none of it. Sadly I think Fearing’s has run its course.

   Fearings has excellent food and very good service. The Thanksgiving dinner appetizers ( prawns and scallops were excellent 5 stars); the main dishes were excellent as well; and the deserts were good, the chocolate pecan tart was outstanding. The service was good and so was the value. I missed the little take-away that we had in previous years. Our servers were very good, but the experience felt ordinary compared to previous visits. Maybe people were tired by 5:30 PM. It was a Very good meal and worth the cost of the meal. I missed Chef Fearing and the buzz he creates and the air of festivity that usually happens at Fearings. This year we had a very nice delectable meal. In years past, I would describe that it was a festive holiday experience and a gastronomical delight.

   Fearing’s is always a treat on Thanksgiving! The service is impeccable, the food is wonderful and Dean is a delightful host. We’ve been coming for years and he never fails to visit our table. The main menu and the vegetarian menu provide options for every member of our party. We can’t recommend Fearing’s highly enough!

   Went for Thanksgiving dinner since we had a very small party. Very interesting take on the traditional Thanksgiving meal. Service was excellent.

   Extraordinary food and service. After all of these years, Dean Fearing just keeps getting better and better. I travel around the country and the world and Fearing's is one of my most consistent and welcoming dining experiences. Dean welcomes all of his guest as if you were dining in his home. The menu is always creative and deliscious. Of course, nobody makes tortilla soup like Fearing's. All the best to Dean and the Staff, Ronnie

   From the minute you arrive till you leave this is a next level dining experience. Everything was perfect and our waiter Qani was exceptional.

   We came to celebrate my wife’s birthday with 4 of our children ages 5 and under. Fearings went above and beyond to accommodate us and we have never had a restaurant experience with our kids like this. From the moment we walked in the hostess gave each of our kids a small stuffy to keep them entertained. The staff were extremely attentive to every detail and even helped buckle our youngest into booster seats. Dean Fearing came to say hi and make sure everything was perfect. 15/10 would highly recommend.

    It has been several years since I have been here and, it wasn’t as good as I remembered. The service was adequate and the food was very good, but this was not a $350 dining experience (for two). The menu felt tired and the staff seemed indifferent. I’m hoping this was just an off night.
