We took our Mother to lunch today and it was so great! Food was delicious, the mimosa flight was perfect for 2. Our server was so sweet and attentive. Made our reservation through Open Table, no fuss, and indicated a birthday celebration was the event, they comped the dessert and didn't make weird by singing 😀 10 out of 10, would recommend

We had a reservation and were seated after a few minutes. We were impressed with the portions and pricing and that we got a full course meal without having to order things a la carte. I ordered the 20 oz filet and my son ordered the 20 oz rib eye. Both were cooked medium rare as requested and were perfect. We had great service and can’t wait to come back again!!

It was a nice place to celebrate our 35th anniversary. The host was very nice, the place was clean and even that it was raining and we were outside the place was great. Loved to come back some other time.

I ordered the chicken Caesar salads which was very good. My friend ordered the tuna melt which was not very good at all. The server did offer to bring something different so my friend got what I had. I appreciated that the server did that.

Fabulous food and appetizers, excellent service and wonderful view of the Moor Bay Rock and overlooking Morro Bay harbor. The oyster shooters right on, the lobster bisque was delicious, the Mexican shrimp-fish ceviche was amazing and the lobster rolls with garlic fries are highly recommended. All in all a 5 star experience and we’ll be coming back for more.

Our group goes every Christmas time. Service is great, there’s a full bar fur those interested, and food was good. The menu is not large but enough variety to give lots of options.
