Six Test Kitchen - Paso Robles

We loved every part of this unique culinary experience. Just three guys do EVERYTHING here. Yes, they were busy the whole time but never too busy to answer questions about even the tiniest things. The somm and the chef were knowledgeable, the plating was beautiful. I would compare this experience with many of the Michelin starred experiences I have had before... Well worth the ticket for admission!

Great food, service and attention to detail. This is a very intimate restaurant with 12 seats. Reservations required.

Highly recommended for those looking for Michelin Star food (think The Laundry in Napa) at a more affordable price. The outside dining is a bit rustic. But the food i world class. Location: Young, hip , trendy, ultra modern restaurant in an industrial park in the middle of nowhere. In pre-covid times it was conceived being indoors with 12 barstools on a long counter facing the open kitchen where 3 young combination chefs/servers prepared the food in full view of the audience. Similar to a suchi bar. Covid put a stop to that and there are now 4 tables with bar stools, sitting 8, outside in a narrow driveway between 2 industrial buildings. Rustic but very virus-safe. Recommended for the covid timid and at risk patrons who must have that 9 course gourmet dinner. The Menu: Varies according to what is fresh and in season. 1-2 new dishes are introduced daily as produce is available. After a week the whole menu has changed. Ah, the tyranny of choice. No choice here. I loved the fixed menu with a wine pairing. It takes all stress out dining. Relax, and you will eat stuff you never would have chosen or dreamed of existed. And the sommelier chose wines you have never heard of, some very local, some European. All wines fit each dish superbly. Truly a culinary experience. The 6 dish menu (wine pairing in brackets), I had, was more like 9 dishes as follows: 1 Salmon belly, dill, sorrel (Mittnacht cremant Alsace) Smoked eggplant, summer quash, basil Beet, plum vinegar, shiso 2 Tomato, melon, cucumber, goat cheese (sauvignon blanc) 3 Chicken liver pate, nectrine, grilled corn bread (white blend) 4 Roasted salmon, maitake mushrooms, creamed corn (Barbera d'Alba Superiore Brezza) 5 Dry aged pork loin (35 days), shishito, peach polenta (Giornata Aglianico) 6 Frozen water melon over white custard? (Meulenhof Riesling Spatlese) Caramelized white chocolate, pistachio, plum Candy cap Wow! And the dishware is quite unique made by a local artist. See the photos of each dish with a pi

They deserved that star. The food was second to none and worth the money. I will be going back in the near future and I'm excited to see what they can do.

We had an unique culinary experience! The food and service were perfect! We really liked the intimate atmosphere of Six. We recommend the wine pairing.
