Nicky Pilgrim – January 2022
Fabulous. We celebrated a friends baby shower at Ventura and it was amazing. The staff made our little get together simple with nothing to worry about. The food was beautiful and the service was friendly. Would recommend to anyone.

Food was very fresh and sensational to eat. Very nice on the deck with a sea breeze.
