Six Test Kitchen

An amazing experience! Spend an evening treating yourself to these wonderful tastes created by these inventive people. You won’t regret it.

Fantastic place. Fixed menu, with optional wine pairing (recommended). Worth it.

Best meal I've ever had. The team was fantastic and I couldn't have asked for a better time.

My friends and I recently dined at Six Test Kitchen during a weekend trip to Paso Robles, and the experience was not quite what we expected or envisioned.

Pros:
The restaurant is closely following social distancing rules, the presentation of each course was beautiful, the vegetarian courses were flavorful, and each of the 3 dessert courses were fantastic.

Cons:
For the steep price, we expected at least one seafood course. We were surprised that the majority of the courses were vegetarian, and that there were three dessert courses (instead of another main course). The duck and pork servings in the one non-vegetarian course were very overwhelming and heavy - we would have preferred to have an option of a lighter, white meat or seafood. Several of us had upset stomachs after dinner, which is certainly not something we expected from this meal. We were disappointed to see that there were no cocktail options, and felt pressured by wait staff to do the wine pairing (though we ultimately decided not to).

Additionally, the restaurant is very difficult to contact (no phone number published anywhere). While the wait staff was attentive and responsive, they came off as quite condescending and unfriendly. Overall, would not dine here again as we felt the price did not match the experience.

Very attentive staff, yummies. About 6 tables outside for now. A bit vulnerable to the 8~9 pm wind.
