Carte Blanche Bistro - Oceanside

My experience at the restaurant was tainted by the presence of flies.

The restaurant has regressed in the past year. I am not inclined to return. The quality of the food and wine is questionable.

We had a fantastic meal at this restaurant. The service, thanks to Michael, was exceptional. The food was delicious, with every dish we ordered being excellent.

I dined here on Saturday with a friend. The menu is unusual and original. The food and drinks were very good, service also very good. There was one major problem with the dining area and that was the flys. Each table is furnished with a propeller to keep the flys away. Unfortunately it is ineffective and we ate our main course with around 20 big flys just buzzing around us. I have eaten at other establishments on that road and there were no flys at all. Needless to say it was very unpleasant. Again, I cannot fault the delicious food, drinks or great service. If they can do something about the flys I'll be back.

Love how the outdoor tables have fire pits in the middle great for night use! Only downfall is you lose that area for shared food. This was my first time for brunch. The Jambon sandwich was really good. My friend didn't care for the Duck Mole Tacos. Enjoyed my lemonade style drink and friends like the nojito all very refreshing. I like the relaxing vibe with music. I've heard the burger is good but haven't tried it yet!
