“My husband selected Fat Cats for lunch on vacation because he used to be a regular 30+ years ago. I can't rave enough about our experience! We actually got there between the lunch and dinner rushes and were met by extremely friendly crew! The diner was pleasantly decorated and the seating was comfortable. However nothing prepared me for my meal. I ordered the ahi burger. It was perfectly seasoned, cooked, and accompanied. Definitely will stop by every visit to this part of Cali!!!”

“Such an awesome and welcoming atmosphere. Owners treat everyone like family. Hard to pass on such an awesome local selection of draft beers/cider/seltzer/wine. Accommodating to all. Such a fun place to spend an hour or a few.”

Splendid!”

“We were immediately greeted and seated (we made reservations online in advance)... our waitress greeted us within a short period of time and took our cocktail order... I'm happy they offer my favorite wine, Austin Hope Cabernet by the glass... I've only known Ember to offer it!... My son ordered a Ni Rada? Martini that tasted how I imagine a household cleaner to taste, he reluctantly sucked it down... we didn't bother to complain but we wouldn't recommend it... he later ordered a Paper Plane Martini which he liked better... After reading other reviews, I see we didn't get the initial bread w/Ricotta offering, probably for the best since we've cut down on gluten and wanted to try a pasta dish... We started with a (not pictured) POLPETTE (large meatball) and it was moist, flavorful, & yummy... alongside PAPPARDELLE RAGU, I was hesitant about it due to not being a fan of lamb... however, it was cooked perfectly without any hint of the game flavor I dislike... my only complaint is there isn't a gluten-free pasta substitute option... It may not be Michelin standard... but it would be great to have some gluten-free Ancient Harvest pasta with any of those yummy ragu/pasta sauces available for the many people with gluten sensitivities... MARY'S 1/2 CHICKEN was flavorful and yummy with the silky mashed potatoes... and the melt-in-your-mouth OSSO BUCCO and tasty polenta did not disappoint!... The atmosphere is cozy with home-style elegance... From the initial welcoming greeting, the friendly & timely food service, the "in-tune" staff that directs you to the restroom without having to ask, the constant spotting of Nate's friendly smile as he ensures his operations are running smooth and the thanks for your patronage as you leave... our experience was pleasantly memorable... This was my 2nd visit to Nate's... the first time I had the pork chop which was flavorful, tender and simply superb... We will return!”

“Ashlea & I had an amazing lunch at Corazon Cafe SLO. Stop in to see Pedro and the team for great food, drinks and a very welcoming atmosphere. We were delighted by our experience. ❤️🙏🏾”

“always GREAT! Very cool nw menu every month!”

“I absolutely LOVE field day! I’ve been a customer for years now and I love bringing my golden retriever too. Every single barista is so kind and loves to make conversation. Trust me it’s the best matcha latte in all of San Luis Obispo!! I have been guilty of going twice a day lol. Get there early enough and snag an avocado toast but if not I love the homemade bagels! Truly will recommend this experience to anyone!”

“Been looking for good barilla tacos. I finally I did!! Delicious, quality, portion size and price I highly recommend them”

“Amazing food that is very inspiring, unique and delicious. Nothing else like it in the area. A must for any foodie who appreciates well thought out dishes.”

“-mushroom burger with ziggy patty-- 9.5/10 excellent -Grilled cheese-- 8/10 very good, but have had much better vegan grilled cheeses. Something different form American cheese would improve it too”

“This is by far the best Peruvian restaurant we’ve eaten at in California. Every dish we got was delicious. Their lomo saltado and their ají de gallina are must-tries.”

“Amazing service. Very fast, no wasted food. Hard working staff”

“The food was amazing we really loved the quality and flavors. While the service wasn’t excellent and our server seemed a bit rushed, we still had a wonderful overall experience.”
