Cool little restaurant and great seafood. Not the best for little kids, definitely more of an adult setting. I enjoy romantic date nights here more than a family dinner.
The clam chowder was good and the see through or should I say sea through tables are quite cool.
We'd been here before, years ago, and were happy to return. Everything is made fresh on site and the flavors are delightful.
This was possibly the worst experience I have ever had at a restaurant. The waitress was condescending and extremely rude - She repeatedly told us that we should have made a reservation while the restaurant at 2:30 was almost empty. We ordered our expensive meals and when we asked her to check on our food around 3:00 she told us that we should have made a reservation again and that we should have gotten there before the large party next to us that she was not waiting on - so why? When our food finally came out we had to ask for silver ware and napkins,, there were 4 at our table and she brought 3 sets of silverware wrapped in cloth napkins - she said ‘I need another one’ and brought back paper napkin and silverware (did they run out of napkins?). Food was delivered and one person did not get the meal that was ordered, he told the waitress that he was missing part of his meal and her response “we talked about that do you want the steak?”. Finally we had all of the condescending remarks that we were willing to take and told her not to come back to the table. She said she would get the manager. She later came back and said “she” (the manager) would be with us shortly. Then a man shows up at our table and we explained what had happen and he apologized and said that she should not be rude to anyone then left. We heard the waitress say to someone “Are they happy now?”. We chose to pay for the bill at the bar and it was not correct and they removed a charge. The waitress was then overheard to say “they are old anyway”. Needless to say there was not a tip given because none was deserved. This was my first and only time to visit this restaurant.
The atmosphere was wonderful and the service was splendid! We sat at a table with an ocean view out the window and through the middle of our table in which we watched a sea otter frolic. The food was delicious and the dessert was outstanding!
Great seafood/pasta dish. Nice servers. View is wonderful
Best food, very nice employees, always great vibes. They charge convenient prices and the food quality is good. Keep it up.
You are right over the water, the dinner, service and the desert....o my gosh! Was over the top! Must go about an hour before sunset, its beautiful there!
Disappointed. Nice views. Had fish tacos. Were full of onions. Waitress rude that we didn't order off the main dinner menu.
We come here here once or twice a year. My kids absolutely love the cool tables that let you see under thebpier,. My wife and I love the food and incredible view. Service is always top notch and the food is always great.

Great view, enjoyed looking down into the water as well as looking out on the water. Fun place to dine!
Food was great staff was friendly, but was a little slow
They have great food. Location is amazing at the end of the pier. We love to go and get the tables that you can look through and see the water. Definitely a must if you go to Avila
Delicious food. Amazing clams, mushrooms, clam chowder, fish and chips- there's genuinely no dish that isn't excellent. Cute little gem on the pier right next to the fish market. Beautiful view of the bay, too.
A little disappointed by the experience. We had come many times in the past when we lived in SLO, and haven't been in years. Our memory of this place was very favorable, so we were excited to bring our family. Two of us ordered fish entrees. The rock cod was uneventful and small, the vegetables were sad, the presentation was pitiful for a $28 plate. My brother got the salmon,the regular salmon entree wasn't available because they were doing a salmon special which was fine, but we were not aware it would be $40 instead of $32 because of that. It was also a pretty small portion and sad presentation for the price. The filet was falling apart, my brother felt like it had been poked or stabbed to see if it was cooked. - looked like how we cook it at home for ourselves when we don't care what it looks like. There were a couple more items that were not available that were listed on the menu.
