We shared the Carne Asada Tacos and they were delicious! The meat was very tender and flavorful. I’d probably get the fries on the side vs in the tacos next time. Our friend had the beet salad with fennel, goat cheese, watercress, orange slices, Marcona almonds, avocado, and champagne vinegarette. It was also amazing!

Excellent food! I had the Korean short rib tacos, so good! Chatted with the person who took our order they made their own kimchi with less spice and a little sweeter than the usual recipe. It was soooo good! The person I went with had the Maple Texas Porkchop, and also raved it was one of the best. Planning to come back again. I really want to try their beet salad (they were out).Parking: Shared parking lot with other businesses.

Took my son to lunch here for his birthday - my first trip, his first choice! Not disappointed! I had a tritip salad (came with delicious chimichurri) and he had an impressive burger with fresh made potato chips! Great place. The owner/chef stopped by and chatted us up. Really a great place!

From the second we entered the restaurant we were treated like royalty. Front of house staff was very approachable. Saw that I had a golden retriever puppy and informed me of their dog friendly patio and menu to boot. This was a first. Chef Mike visited our table and introduced himself. A very tenured chef that is constantly monitoring international news and weather to anticipate supply chain Villegas with fresh seafood and produce. He uses the best of the best ingredients in his fusions creating a very unique cuisine and culinary dining experience. All in an unassuming location that is purely central coast. Inwas blown away by the Korean short rib tacos with homemade kimchi. The bread pudding for dessert certainly followed suit. So much love goes into each dish. I enjoyed watching the expressions on the faces of other customers when their dishes arrived. They were clearly as impressed as I was. Keep up the great work chef Mike and staff. This is my new go to with guests from out of town. Prices were very reasonable making this a perfect destination to impress without breaking the bank. Additionally noticed an extensive kids menu with excellent options.

We had a great lunch at The Salty Brigade Kitchen. It’s become our ritual to stop off for lunch on our way up to Paso Robles. We missed Mike, but the staff made us feel right at home. Good food and great people there!Parking: Easy access to the restaurant. Always plenty of parking right in front of the restaurant.

Title: A Culinary Gem with Irresistible Pork Chops!Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I recently had the pleasure of dining at Salty Bargade, and the experience left me thoroughly impressed. The atmosphere, the service, and most importantly, the food, make this place a true culinary gem.The menu boasts a variety of tempting options, but the real star of the show, without a doubt, is the pork chops. They are simply exceptional – perfectly cooked, flavorful, and downright irresistible. Each bite is a testament to the chef's skill and commitment to delivering top-notch cuisine.Beyond the pork chops, every dish I tried was a delightful journey for the taste buds. The attention to detail in both presentation and taste showcases the passion that Mike and the entire team put into crafting a memorable dining experience.The ambiance adds to the overall charm of the restaurant, creating a warm and inviting space that complements the delectable offerings.If you're a food enthusiast or just someone looking for an unforgettable dining experience, I highly recommend Salty Bargade. The combination of great food and a welcoming atmosphere makes it a standout choice.I can't wait to return for another round of those amazing pork chops!Curtis
