   There is, one must admit, a certain grandeur to arriving at Sierra Mar. Perched high on a bluff in Big Sur, wrapped in fog like a secret whispered by the Pacific, the setting is operatic in scope. Unfortunately, that seduction ends the moment the food arrives. We came for lunch, a prix fixe menu and wine flight. What we encountered was something more akin to a luxury day camp cafeteria—if that cafeteria were manned by listless staff more interested in their phones than the patrons. As for the food, it was executed with a kind of bland indifference that bordered on the hostile. Courses arrived in baffling combinations. Two salads to share, served in large bowls as if at a potluck, were limp and forgettable. But the true offense came next: a single hot plate heaving with burger, steak, and fish, all crammed together like livestock on Noah’s Ark. Predictably, the fish’s pungency colonized everything else. One imagines this was meant to be inventive. It was not. It was an affront. The wine pairings, so often the salvation of a tepid kitchen, were ruined by a server whose rhythm was so out of sync it felt like we were dining in a time warp. Champagne arrived with the salad, the rose and red wine at the same time, the supposed “pairings” were so out of sync, it became unbearable. To say nothing of the fact that the server got one of the mains order wrong. So two burgers had to suffer next to the fish. But the gravest crime of all—the unpardonable sin—was that none of it tasted like anything. The food was not bad in the way of a misfire. It was bad in the way of boredom. It aspired to nothing and achieved less. Not a single flavor lingered, haunted, or surprised. It was a $400 lunch one forgets before the valet retrieves the car. There are, I’m told, better options. One imagines it would not be difficult to find them. A roadside taco stand. A well-made sandwich by the sea. Anything, really, prepared with care and intention.

   Enjoyed the whole experience. Food and services were excellent and on top of that it was a beautiful clear evening, to watch the sunset over the ocean.

   Returned to Post Ranch Inn yesterday after an outstanding meal there a few years ago. We have come from Victoria Australia to visit family so it is a very special treat for us (at $185 for a fixed price tasting menu it is at the high end). Sadly our experience fell short of our last visit. The change to a fixed menu is disappointing and I feel that having no choice at all is quite lazy. I like that they are using local produce and some food they grow there but I wonder at the dominance of mushrooms on the menu in April. The food was excellent quality but inconsistent - nothing really stood out as being brilliant and memorable, as each dish had done for us in our last visit. The dessert was very disappointing - a medicinal tasting eucalyptus icecream (a tiny ball) on a stodgy chocolate cookie with a couple of quite heavy white chocolate tuilles. Things were out of order (coffee brought before dessert, a salad at the start?) and the service, while attentive, felt mechanical. Sadly, after so much anticipation, I doubt I will return.

We appreciate your culinary notes, and we are thrilled to read that Brianna, and the rest of our team took great care in ensuring that any concerns were quickly resolved. Please do visit again.

   The ambience is of course beautiful as you view the Pacific Ocean. The service is friendly, accommodating and impeccable. The tasting menu is creative, tasty and served so artfully.

   It has to be the most beautiful setting for a dining experience on earth. Not only are the views stunning from the Big Sur cliffs, but the food is crafted in such a wholesome, creative way. It’s a fabulous place for lunch and a must do for dinner and the sunset.

    This is one of the most magical places to visit, sit, enjoy the gorgeous Big Sur coast line and eat great food in a relaxed special place. Wonder servers and service people tending the place and customers.
