Justin Downtown - Paso Robles

We received attentive service and the food was quite good. The portion sizes were surprisingly generous. They offered decent options for non-meat eaters, but there were limited protein choices apart from red meat. As long as you keep in mind that their primary focus is as a steakhouse, you won't be disappointed.

The salmon was overcooked, and the service was just okay—nothing exceptional. However, what was truly troubling was the use of multiple small plastic water bottles for serving water. I understand the restaurant's connection to Fiji Water, but it's disheartening to witness such a lack of consideration for the environment.

This restaurant is a refined spot for steak lovers, offering attentive service. However, our dining experience was inconsistent; the filet was excellent, but the sirloin was tough and the ribs were quite fatty. The vegetable sides were disappointingly soft rather than crisp. The wine selection is limited, but the offerings from Justin and Landmark are quite good. If you're not a fan of beef (with 4 out of the 5 main dishes being steak) or if you're seeking a vibrant atmosphere (it quiets down significantly after 9 pm, while the restaurant next door is still bustling), this may not be the right place for you.

This was my 3rd visit to JUSTIN Downtown, and my first visit for dinner with the new “Steakhouse” menu. It did not disappoint. My filet was cooked to a perfect medium rare; which is a requirement of any quality steakhouse. Sides were delicious and shareable, and the wine selection is JUST PERFECT. If you haven’t been, JUSTIN Downtown is a sleek and modern tasting room. The back half of is turned into an intimate steakhouse after 5pm, which keeps its wine tasting vibes as the front portion is still lively. Service is great, which is something JUSTIN focuses on here and at the Vineyard. Wine tasting and restaurants are an experience, and rely heavily on its staff to make it enjoyable. Megan was a star, providing a balance of conversation and service. The rest of the staff was equally attentive.

First time at the downtown location. It was a perfect way to spend the afternoon in Paso. Food and wine were delicious!!
