New American Restaurants near Aptos, CA

“Every time I go, spot in with the food. This is what I look for in a restaurant. Think out of the box menu with consistency every time I go with every item I order. I keep working down the menu to try everything. They obviously make their own sauce, the ranch, super bomb diggity. Fries, onion rings, salad all fresh and crisp. Mac and Gouda cheese bites, Yes! Chop cheese, you gotta have one of these! Mushroom cap “burger “ something you will crave, Parish pie, goodness wrapped up in one dish. Salmon fish & chips, fantastic. And I forgot to mention beer, beer, beer, they also have beer and mixed drinks. There is always specials on the screens. Last time I noticed something about tenderloin and bacon …… can’t wait to go back and find out!“

“We had a wonderful takeaway family dinner last week. We ordered the family truffled cheese tortiglioni meal, three short rib dinners and two salmon. Our food was ready for us on time, beautifully packed and the heating instructions perfect. Everything was absolutely delicious! Thank you Cori & crew for offering pick up meals and we look forward to experiencing your beautiful outdoor patio some day.“

“Wait staff was excellent, as usual. Always a pleasure dining at Cafe Cruz. Don't think prices have gone up AT ALL since COVID. Amazing... a hamburger is still only $14!! Compared to Santa Cruz Diner where the burgers are $20 PLUS, in addition to the "extra service charge". Employees at Cafe Cruz are always happy and seem to enjoy their jobs. Cafe Cruz is always enjoyable!!!“

“We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Trestles. Hostess Blixha was friendly, sweet and helpful. Server Kimber was amazing - describing the food choices, Making suggestions based on our questions and paced the selections perfectly. She kept her professionalism even as one table was a bit obnoxious. A small space, indoors can be a little stuffy and loud. Four of us ate family style and the dishes were fabulous from the local oysters, fried green tomatoes, spring pea salad, halibut and the special, chicken salad… very very good!“
