Fina - Ripon

Delicious and Awesome service. Perfect for any occasion or just because. Wished they were in Modesto

Great food and love the music on Sat nights. I love that my small home town has some of these great places to eat! It's a win for Ripon.

Went for an anniversary dinner for two. Had reservations and walked in to find it wasn't busy at all around 7pm. As we walked in we weren't greeted even though the hosts looked at us like deer in front of headlights. I greeted them and told them we had reservations lol. Strange for hosts not to know what to do. Waited some time for a server but she was very friendly and knowledgeable to guide us highlights of the menu. The food was a touch salty and I love salt so for someone else they might not appreciate the heavy hand. I really loved their frita dish which consisted of veggies and seafood battered and fried. Their halibut or bass chunks in it were very small but melt in your mouth. He got the ribeye and it wasn't worth it or a nice cut. My dish was their pesto pasta with shrimp and delicious! I'd go back to try their other seafood dishes. Their drinks are really mediocre. The ambiance is really nice almost as if you're in a restaurant in Sacramento. They had live acoustic guitarist which is a great touch and he was excellent! Perfect for date nights and there were definitely family's. Dress nicely or business casually. Service can improve and being out of ingredients at the bar on a Saturday seems strange. Also drinks aren't sweet probably more sophisticated lol.

It is a nice place to eat and you go for the ambiance more than anything. The two times I have gone the service has been very slow. The server was also making drinks for the entire dinning room so she was a little busy and not able to always refill drinks. Removed a dish that I liked in the past month and was not able to really sub anything for it. Prices are fair I guess for a fancy steak dinner, might just stick with Texas Road House

This place is amazing. Great service excellent food and a wonderful atmosphere. If you haven't already eaten here make the trip. You will not regret it.
