   My second visit in a month. Every aspect of the experience was exceptional. From moment one with the hostess all the way through, the staff are top notch. Gorgeous surroundings and ambiance, incredible drink menu and delicious food. This is north county’s best new thing in a long time. Bravo to the owners and management.

   Everything was delicious, impressed with every dish both time we’ve come to Haven! Chef is incredible, truly knows how to make the FPF ingredients shine. Fresh and not overworked, my new favorite

   Haven's ambiance visually and spatially is astounding - it is truly a beautiful restaurant! However, the food and the music volume left something to be desired. We were among the first seating and even then, the volume of the music was loud. The selection was disco and I love disco, but to have it blaring while eating was jarring. (I spoke to the manager about it and he said that since they used Spotify, the selections were random). We got two starters, bread/butter plate and hummus plate - both were good but not great. Bison burger, pheasant curry and black cod, entrees and prawn starter were all good but again not great. (Note: on this night, there was only one seafood entree offered; since half of us don't eat meat, not a lot of choices.) They all lacked something - we requested salt and it came as rock salt in a small container. Cocktails, beer, and table service were all excellent. Given the that Haven has only been open 5 months and the hefty price tag at the end of the meal, I would return for drinks and small plates only and wait to see how the menu firms up.

   Haven was very noisy, difficult to have conversation, the service was extremely delayed and some of the food when it finally did arrive was served cold and tasteless. Even the dessert was not worth the calories of eating it. It's disappointing to say that I would not recommend this restaurant. The cookies on the other hand at the bakery/coffee shop down below on the fist floor were excellent!

   Great over-all with excellent service. Would have preferred a more varied menu with a couple of additional entrees- possibly a chicken option? and possibly a vegan option. Ceasar salad, bread and soup were very good~ and the flavored butters. A little chilly, but not bad considering is so open air inside. Savanah was a wonderful server xoxo

   Gorgeous new restaurant! Amazing farm to table dishes. The property is stunning and the staff were great. Recommend the bison burger and the cavatelli.

    Food is sensational here! So good- you cannot beat the freshness and the attention to detail! It is a bit chilly in the winter, so bring a jacket, This is our 3rd time here, and the first time, the service was off; long wait for the first touch by the server, and then they were not attentive, but I will go back for sure.
