Reviews portray SoCal Kitchen as a popular Tremblant spot with a varied and flavorful menu featuring poke bowls, burgers, tacos, gnocchi, seafood, and inventive sides, with many noting generous portions and standout items like poke bowls and fish dishes, while some dishes such as nachos can be soggy and a lobster roll may disappoint. The dining experience is frequently described as welcoming and friendly, with attentive service in many visits but occasional issues with slow timing, meals arriving late, and staff being hard to locate at key moments. The music and vibe can be lively or loud, sometimes seeming misaligned with a family friendly setting, though the patio and village location are often praised. Prices are commonly described as on the higher side but reasonable for the area, and the restaurant is noted for accommodating dietary needs and special occasions like birthdays with candles and singing. Overall SoCal Kitchen comes across as a reliable, enjoyable option that shines for its poke bowls and creative dishes, while a handful of visits highlight opportunities to tighten service and better match the atmosphere to the setting.
Have been here a few times & really enjoyed it. The food is really varied & the ingredients are very fresh & the service is always great. Definitely recommend. Special shout out to Jordan who was our waiter the other night. He was super friendly & helpful & also gave us some tips for Tremblant.
L'Équipe était sympathique, mais manque de personnel. On a attendu une heure pour être servi. Le repas était correct, un peu chère pour ce qu'il y avait dans l'assiette. Clairement une place pour touristes.
Food was good, was kind of a mediocre pasta tho i was deciding between the pasta & a bowl (which was delicious as I tried my friends) service was great he would keep checking in to see how we were doing. Hated the oysters but it was my first time trying oysters so maybe I just don't like them in general.

We had a very tasty lunch here. It was a nice change from the big standard meals served in the village. We ordered the Bao buns, the citrus burrata & the garlic potatoes. All delicious. You could taste the freshness. Would definitely recommend!
Has a great lunch here on our last day in Tremblant, September 2024. So many restaurants in a small vicinity, it's really had to decide where to eat, but this place had some nice Cuban music going & some original menu items which drew us in. Was very quiet so get seated on their patio. Good & quick service. I had the Cobb Salad & my girlfriend had the daily special Chickeb Tikka bowl. Both were really tasty & super fresh. There was a ton more amazing menu options, so will try this place for dinner next time. Oh & really neat bar inside too.
Our family stopped in for lunch here on our last day in the area, & we sat out on the dog-friendly patio with our pup. We got the nachos to share, & I had the tostadas, while everyone else got the chicken bowl special. Everyone loved their food & I was excited to find tostadas on a menu - & they did not disappoint!

I am absolutely delighted to share our experience at this wonderful restaurant! We stumbled upon this gem while wandering around, & we were immediately drawn in by their menu, which featured an array of fresh & light options. We decided to bring our 9-year-old daughter, who is notoriously picky when it comes to food. To our pleasant surprise, she absolutely loved the chicken skewers & ended up enjoying the bao buns-something we didn't think she'd enjoy at all! She devoured them so quickly that we had to order more. The food was nothing short of spectacular-tasty, fresh, & beautifully presented. The service was equally impressive; the servers were attentive & ensured we had everything we needed. We did visit another popular spot on a different night, but looking back, I wish we had returned here instead. The price points were comparable, but the overall experience here was far superior. If you're planning a visit, I highly recommend the ceviche, bao buns, & poke bowl. Each dish was a standout & made our meal truly memorable.
What a wonderful spot for lunch! Nice change from all the other super busy restaurants in the village that served mainly burgers & fries.! The decor was lovely! The menu was really nice! All the dishes we ordered were DELICIOUS. My sister had the 2 lobster rolls with fries for $42, not bad as it was stuffed with lots of lobster meat & the fresh strawberries were a refreshing touch! I had the short ribs burger & fries - it was AMAZING! What a nice change from a traditional burger, it was also topped with breaded mushrooms & served on a nice toasted ciabatta bun -- it was so so so yummy! My daughter had fish tacos which also full of flavour! Totally recommend this spot!
