“My husband and I came for a celebratory dinner and enjoyed very much! Every dish was incredible. You can 100% taste the freshness in the ingredients which added depth to every dish. Our server Morgan was very warm and welcoming. Her wine recommendation was spot on to what we were looking for.”

“We had such a fantastic experience at Home in Soquel. From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for the night. The ambiance feels both cozy and elevated, the kind of place we instantly wanted to come back to. The food was absolutely amazing — every dish was fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. You can tell the chefs really care about what they’re putting on the plate. On top of that, the service was outstanding. The staff was attentive without being overbearing, and they made the whole experience feel personal. It’s rare to find a place that nails the food, the ambiance, and the service all at once, but Home pulls it off beautifully. Easily one of our new favorite spots in the area. Highly recommend!”

“We chose HOME for our wedding this August and celebrated with 65 guests. Every detail was perfect, including the food, the service, and the ambiance. The team created a day that felt uniquely us, and we could not be more grateful. HOME has our highest recommendation. Thanks all!”

“Very cute place. Food was good overall. The downsides: - The squid ink pasta was on the salty side. - The beef tongue dish (pic attached) was unfortunately inedible - dry and impossible to chew. The hostess mentioned this is the intended preparation rather than a mistake, so it’s probably best to skip it if you see it on the menu. That said, she was gracious enough to replace it with another dish. - It gets pretty loud in there.”

“Although expensive, and I wish the fried chicken were in pieces like normal instead of half a chicken, the breading and skin was amongst the best I have ever had. Amazingly crispy. As a shared app we had the Beet Risotto Fritter. What a concept and the flavors were off the charts. Savory with a hint of sweetness from the beets. Served on a bed of lentils. My friend had the pork chop which was very nice served with some Dungeness crab with blood oranges and a chili oil which was wonderful. With the chicken the had a Black Trumpet Aioli, and not being a mushroom fan I asked if the had anything else. The waitress asked the chef and he came up with a sauce for me which was good but I also told the waitress that I would be willing to try the Aioli. Never let it be said I'm not willing for try something even knowing I have never liked it and I'm 65, lol. It turned out to be wonderful. No overpowering mushroom taste. For dessert I had chocolate olive oil cake, and my friend had the chocolate mousse. Both were outstanding. If you drink decaf, get it. It was wonderful which isn't always the case with decaf. Served in a French press was wonderful. I will definitely go back to try some of their pastas. They looked delicious but I had my heart set on the chicken. I really would give it 4.5 stars but it won't let me.”
