16 Best American Restaurants in Cambria

“Breaking down the stars on this one! 5 stars - Food was excellent. kudos to the chef. 4 stars - Service very good...kudos for the bus boy who delivered napkins on his own after I sneezed, but had not asked for them. Waiter was pleasant and fairly attentive, but could use instruction on what is called suggestive selling. He definitely offered desserts, which we were going to turn down regardless, but suggestive selling a little different. (just a suggestion) My 1 star downgrade. 1 star - Neither my wife nor I drink alcohol. I ordered a Pomegranate lemonade, my wife simply water. I can "somewhat" understand 1 refill only on most of the non-alcoholic beverages! My particular beverage was not allowed a refill however. With normal size restaurant beverage glasses that is usually enough for most people per meal anyways! And along with the type of restaurant, I can understand having select beverages in keeping with the menu and customer target. But I DO NOT understand the kid size glass it came in...and at a fairly high price for a non-alcoholic beverage as well to along with no refill at all! At that price, I really was not encouraged to refill it, even once. It is as the saying goes "Penny wise but pound foolish!" If you do not drink wine or beer, but non-alcoholic drinks, and are stretching the budget a little to enjoy a better restaurant, might want to do what my wife did, a glass of water.“

“We love this place! The staff is so friendly, the food is great, and the bakery is awesome! My husband loves the chicken fried steak but I highly recommend either the avacado toast or the roasted vegetables with polenta. Don't leave without trying the olallieberry cream puff, yum!“

“Wife and I both had filets. Muscles appetizer great. Filets were some of the best we've ever had. Tender and flavorful. Veggies excellent. Bread before meal not so good. Service was great. Attentive and friendly. Overall a wonderful experience.“

“We went here two nights in a row bc it was just so delicious. First night we got the salmon and I split the 12 oz steak. Everything perfectly cooked with delicious sauces and flavors. Wild rice is fragrant and mash potatoes are so creamy. Next night we got a steamed clam starter, sea bass special, pork chop, and penne pasta. All so so delicious, definitely best pork chop I’ve ever had!! Huge servings.

High end place, worth the price for sure.
Service was very attentive and friendly. Dog friendly, we got a nice outdoor seat.“

“This is a no food, — bar only location, but your are welcome to BYOF.

They offer a decent collection of local craft beer, and also some wine, cider and cocktails for those who accompany the beer lovers.

They also stash some XX, coors, and modelo for those who accidentally made it to the venue taking a wrong turn.

Bottomline, it was a pleasant visit.“

“Sweet, homey brunch place, perfect for a small group of friends on the back patio. Delicious food and service.

Parking: Aside from the spots immediately in front of the establishment, the next lot over has a lot available, too.“

“The daily specials are always delicious and picture perfect! Outdoor dining is a scenic atmosphere, and consistently an experience to remember. Our favorite waiter, Clinton, always goes over and beyond to make our dining experience enjoyable and memorable. He always makes us feel like we are a part of the Cambria Lodge family, and is always putting in so much effort into making our dinners special!“

“Great food!! Great environment!!“

“First time. We were on a Sunday drive up the coast. We stopped by on the way home. It was my first time there. Enjoyed the atmosphere a lot. There were lots of people but not overcrowded but was a little loud but still able to talk and hear your table. Everyone seemed nice and the food was very good. Best Fries! And a lot! Will go back again many times in the future. Very clean also.“

“All of it. !!! The whole kit and caboodle“

“I always look forward to a meal at this homey place. My friend from his Cambrian days, John Brannon, recommended the hamburgers, and even though I was primed for breakfast I had the Mushroom Burger. Delicious, and the friendly waitress volunteered that I could order onion rings instead of fries at no additional charge. It was a great choice!“

“Had a great Pizza. And I’m a pizza guy born into an Italian family In Brooklyn NY.“

“Excellent food and service.“

“We enjoy everything about West End. The food is really good and the atmosphere is friendly and homey. Owner, Vicki, is the friendliest person ever.“

“Terrible service, kept saying he would be back to take our order never did. Others came after us & were served. Sorry is all he said as he walked away. Don't bother going there!!!!!“

“Very nice property. Enjoyed our day, nice and relaxing.“
