Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Thousand Oaks

We loved it! We had 9 people in our group with a small dog. The front room was an enclosed patio with a fireplace and heaters all decked out in the Christmas spirit. Our dog was able to sit on her place by the table and was very good. Our waiter was very attentive , the food came quickly and was delicious . we will come back again when we need a special family fine dining meal that accommodates pets .

Very pleasant dinner on Christmas Eve. Enjoyed the experience from start to finish, from delicious food, friendly and efficient wait staff, and yummy drinks. The owner/chef came out to greet us after our meal and struck up a conversation with our adult son about the local restaurant industry and wholesale auto stuff. Very friendly, down-to-earth guy, and easy to communicate with. As far as the food goes, the steak skewers were a hit! You must try these! Everything else was tasty as well, the chicken, branzino, and lamb breast. Very creative menu with unique flavors - not your run-of-the-mill seafood and steak restaurant.

My favorite Italian restaurant in our area. The food is always good, service is great. We went on Christmas Eve, and the restaurant was packed. Service was a little slow as a result but we were not in a hurry so we didn't mind. Our food was delicious and the servers were very friendly.

We came on Christmas Eve. We sat on the patio and the heaters did a great job keeping us comfortable. The service was quick. Our food came out very quickly. Everything tasted great we had a nice dinner. We would definitely go back.

The food the service in the ambience were nothing less than memorable. We had been here a year ago for the holidays and it was. The only unfortunate exception was the couple that was seated next to us midway through our meal. They were rude to the waitress, nasty, obnoxious, and loud - obviously drunk. Our waitress Kris couldn’t have been nicer and handled the situation professionally but I know she could see our displeasure. We live in Northern California, and purposely made reservations again for the holidays due to our prior visit. I’m not sure we will return again due to this experience.
