For our first time at The Hideout, it certainly did not disappoint! The vibe was energetic for a Saturday night. We sat at the bar while we waited for a table outside. The 3 staff members behind the bar were awesome. Attentive and focused on their craft - my husband gave the old fashioned a 9/10. Once we sat for dinner, our waiter was friendly and observant; checking in on us frequently and ensuring an enjoyable meal. I had the short ribs (whoa - so, so, tasty!). Portions were plentiful and the cost was more than reasonable. I’d recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a place to eat in Aptos.

Great service and good portion size. We had chorizo queso dip with freshly made tortilla chips for a starter which was very good. My brother-in-law had the pastrami Reuben with sweet potato fries and I had the Cuban sandwich with fries. Plenty of leftovers. Service was excellent.

This place was chosen by my bestie as I hadn't been there since the fire. Atmosphere was friendly and perfect for us two. Service was spectacular and prompt. We didn't feel rushed and food was delicious. I had the chicken fettuccine. With one drink each and two dinners it came to a little over 100.00. A little pricey but i feel its worth it for a special occasion.

I was only there in the evening for a drink with old friends. The staff was very friendly, the drinks were good, and they had some beautiful photos of surrounding areas.

It seems so rare these days to find a place that genuinely welcomes families and doesn’t just tolerate them. Great food and really great people.
I CANNOT say enough about this restaurant. They welcomed our large group after a baseball tournament, set a table near the door so we could see our dog in the car when there wasn’t room on the patio, and made our youngest son’s birthday extra special. I really can’t think of a time I’ve enjoyed a restaurant more.
PS- The candied bacon is to die for.
