“Crab soup was wonderful. Scallops were fine/nothing special. The purple sweet potatoes were pureed and tasted like snotty, runny baby food.The swordfish served with bordelaise sauce didn't work. The crabcake lillikoi pepper jelly was way too overwhelming.Sadly disappointed.“
“Easily the BEST brewery in the 5 cities!! They've been around for a while and I can certainly understand why! Their beers are tasty. Food is delicious. Staff is so friendly. They have great deals basically every day of the week. And the atmosphere just feels like you're chilling in your backyard with good people. Love this place and will certainly be back!“
“The food is amazing!! Antionette, Raul and the staff are amazing. Great service!!! Antionette and the staff were so great doing what they do!!!! We loved the fact when we learned they are now dog friendly. Truly was the reason we came because we could bring our Berne-doodle. Sadly when we asked for a piece of grilled chicken for her, they accepted the order and then came back with it had to be at the same price as the chicken breast on the menu. We sucked it up, and it came with all the seasoning whereby she could not eat it. Almost $40 for something she could not eat. We travel all of California. EVERY dog friendly restaurant has a plain burger or chicken breast they can make for your dog in the $5-$8 dollar range. So they may say they are dog friendly, it appears they are merely dog tolerant which in California seems out of touch. Sad to waste such great food and service at those prices when you can't make reasonable exceptions for your dog.“
“Quick service even during a busy Saturday night. Everything was tasty. Price was very reasonable. I especially loved the chili spuds. Chile Verde tacos were on point! Had "I'm this many:4. Beer. Very delicious taste. Surprisingly smooth for a 10% abv.... I'm from Humboldt county and found HUMdingers by accident and was very impressed! Vibrant yet chill enviro“
“This restaurant was so amazing! Upon arrival Chris greeted us with a smile and sat us with him by the window. We ordered filet bites to start with as an appetizer which was so tasty and fresh. Chris guided us towards selecting dinner and he sure didn't disappoint. He recommended the SeaVenture seafood dish and it was so fresh with zero fishy flavors throughout the meal. The swordfish was delectable as well. The caeser salad came with the best thick dressing I've had and even better than the Madonna inns steakhouse! The salad comes with two pieces of fresh anchovy on it sliced thin and so fresh. Dessert was just unbelievable; the Bananas Foster was even better than that of Commanders Palace in New Orleans! Please come on by and request to sit with Chris he was so on it!“
“It's a beautiful, serene space with an extremely comfortable ambiance and our dishes were well executed and delicious. But the gracious, friendly staff are the main reason why I will return whenever I am in the area again. My only regret is that our late dinner meant that we didn't get to enjoy the view at sunset or linger after eating.“
“I just love this place. I love the fresh and very tasty food. I come all the time and love the warm welcome when I come in. Because I eat there so I’ve met the regular great staff Jose, Rosie, Annette, Manuel and Miguel. They all seem to take pride in customer service, keeping the place clean and inviting. Thank you all!Dietary restrictions: They have no issues with me asking for substitutions for some items I can’t eat.“
“Great food and drinks with friendly service. We came to town for a friend's mini-bachelorette trip with just 3 of us. We made a reservation for a Saturday evening, and we each enjoyed our meals and drinks thoroughly! The staff was friendly and prompt, and knowledgeable about the menu. They were accommodating to dietary needs as well. After our dinner, we bought a few shots at the bar while waiting for our ride. The bartender was friendly and mixed shots were great!“
“We came here for lunch because it is close to my dentist. This was our first visit and we will come back with my family again soon. Today we had one pizza, one beer, and Mac & Cheese with added short rib. I think Rooster Creek has the best and most unique pizza. The food was great and inexpensive also the service was excellent. We liked the Nuevo Laredo pizza the best and would like to try all of the pizzas when we visit in the future. We recommend that you sit outside for a relaxing atmosphere. You can also see real wild roosters nearby. The service was great and our waitress was very nice.“
“Been here twice now and I will definitely be retuning...let's just say it's my family's new go to when we are SLO!!! Everything we have tried from the main dish to the smoothies have been made to order fresh and delicious, served to perfection.“
“If you haven't tried the new Menu at the Market Place, it is extensive for both breakfast and lunch and it is terrific! The omelets are worth the trip for breakfast and the salmon salad and burgers are excellent for lunch. Of course, lots of other choices and we have yet to be anything but totally pleased.“
“This place rocks. Spicy chicken all the way every time I come here. I'll admit I have a tendency to overeat a bit when I go here, but I regret nothing except the heartburn I have afterwards ?. I usually have the mac daddy sandwich which is a spicy chicken tender sandwich with creamy mac and cheese on it. Their spicy fries are also quite delicious.“
“Excellent experience all around. Delicious food (seafood pasta, fig pizza and cheeseburger). Good wine and mixed drinks, using house brands. Our server was very friendly and efficient. Unlike many restaurants these days, the noise level was perfect and allowed our party of 4 to enjoy our conversation without having to raise our voices.“
“Had the onion rings for appetizer and they were very good…I had the fish n chips and they were so deelicious…restaurant was clean & all the servers were nice…they have a great selection of beers…the restroom was clean & even smelled “
“This is one of those "hidden gem" spots! We've even stayed at the San Luis Inn that is right next door and hadn't noticed it. It is down the hill and next door to the pro shop for the golf course. There are large menu boards up next to the entrance and above the bar. You place your order at the bar and then go find a seat. We found a great spot in the shade outside and didn't have any problems with insects. Our lunches (salads and sandwiches) were good and tasty. The view of the ocean was great! A nice, relaxing spot for lunch, especially during the week (apparently it is a lot busier on weekends).“
“If you like seafood, this is your spot. From clam chowder, lobster rolls, fish and chips, this place has it all. They have a good amount of indoor and outdoor seating, and a whole wall of self serve beers on tap. On weekends, they do have a brunch menu available, but the standard menu is also served every day. They have two types of lobster rolls: The Original and a Jalapeno LimeWe got one of each and each roll was stuffed full of big chunks of lobster. The original was served either with drawn butter or a garlic herb mayo, but per the suggestion of the cashier, we ordered it dressed in butter with the mayo on the side. The rolls are $30 each but do come with thicc cut steak fries. You can opt to sub out the fries for house made chips if you like more of a crunch. The jalapeno lime roll was very light in flavor, and could have used more butter or a mayo to dress it up a bit. The bun was nicely buttered and toasted though, which helped. I love that it was topped with crispy fried onions for a little extra flava and crunch!If there is one dish you're going to order, make it the poke nachos. It's super saucy so some bites can be a little overwhelming. A little less sauce would make this even better, but overall, highly recommend giving it a try! The chunks of ahi tasted fresh, and I loved that they added avocado and seaweed salad. This was so refreshing over the wonton chips. I opted for the fisherman's catch so I could have a little bit of everything. This came with 1 large piece of cod fish, lots of shrimp, and a few strips of calamari over fries. This was served with tartar sauce, cocktail sauce and lemon wedges. Normally I would squeeze lemon over all my fried seafood but it didn't even need it! Idk what they do with the batter/seasoning but I love loved loved that all the fried seafood had a citrussy flavor to it already. This would be a good sized plate to share! The staff were all really nice and attentive and we loved the vibes of the outdoor seating. Midway through our meal, a guy went on the stage to play some live music, so that was a nice touch. If I'm ever back in Pismo, I'm making it a point to come back for more eats!“
“While out for a walk in Arroyo Grande Village my husband and I decided to stop in the Village Cafe for breakfast- It's a nice small cafe and the server made us feel instantly welcomed seating us right away- I ordered the short stack with a side of hash browns- My husband ordered the waffles with sausage and eggs and a side of biscuits and gravy- I was pleasantly surprised when our food arrived! My short stack was huge! I instantly could smell the heavenly aroma of vanilla and they were delicious! My hash browns were cooked exactly like I prefer which is crispy, golden and tasty- My husband loved every bit of his breakfast especially the biscuits and gravy, which I happily kept dipping my hash browns in! There was only one server and she was remarkable! Friendly and quick! We will definitely be back to try more on their menu ~“
“We chose Marisol for dinner after stopping for a cocktail the evening before. Great views, comfortable atmosphere, but our server Jason was the main reason for the return visit. We were not disappointed and we watched the sun set from a beautiful outdoor setting.“
“The salad was very tasty. The main meal, steak, mash potato and vegetables where all served quite warm and not luke warm or cool.Great to enjoy a meal and have the food stay that warm during the entire meal. Steak, mash potatoes and vegges where excellent. Desert was excellent. We have been here 3 or 4 times and always look forward to eating here. Would not even think of going else where for dinner.“
“Friendly fast service. Delicious food, and a beautiful view on the patio. Thanks Jordyn! We had the western BBQ burger and sweet potato fries. They're Rancho was amazing! We've been coming to Avila for years bit this was our first time here and we will be back!“
“Driving through town, we needed a bite and want to thank all you 5-star reviewers of Spoon Trade for steering us here because the food was fantastic! It was a busy Saturday afternoon and we got one of the last tables available. Super friendly service straight away and a great vibe all around. Very interesting menu! A diner for foodies. Wife had the vegetarian Tikka with a side sausage patty, which she loved, and my son had the Benedict, which of course I tasted via dad tax and it was rich and yummy. I was going to get the chicken and waffles, which looked delicious on other people's tables, but opted for the duck noodle soup, which was a tasty ramen. It was on the pricy side, but everything was such great quality, original recipes, and made to order. We look forward to visiting again!“
