“An absolutely wonderful wine tasting. They have a cute little tasting room to enjoy your wine. Loved all their wines they had to offer - the Syrah and the NV Eclipse were our favorites, and we took home a bottle of each. Evan was super friendly and knowledgeable during our tasting. They also offer a small food menu, and the Shuck Shack Oysters are the best delicious addition to your wine tastings. Overall, a very enjoyable time wine tasting. Highly recommend, and we are looking forward to coming back.“
“Local's Taproom is an Avila staple after just 2 months of business. Owned and operated by the previous taproom's bartenders, it fully embodies the 70's-80's surf vibe that is so needed in a small, safe environment trying to create a safe space for everyone to enjoy local brews and wines. Creating an atmosphere that is so inviting can only cause such an establishment to skyrocket to one of the hottest spots in such a small town. Although there are plenty of comfortable, vibey spots in town, Locals Taproom is a fun local atmosphere that can be enjoyed by all. Although they don't offer food, they are welcoming to the idea of inviting outside food to accompany their many local draughts (or drafts). As a pair of local owners, Local's Taproom is a must if you are visiting Pismo Beach, San Luis Obispo, or Arroyo Grande. In the summer, there is a *free* trolley that transports through Pismo, all the way through Shell Beach, as well as Avila and is a fantastic opportunity to enjoy a beverage (or three) without having to Uber or Lyft between you and your permanent or temporary summer home. 5 out of 5 in all respects that are relevant to this quaint and inviting establishment.“

“The Pierfront Wine & Brew Bar is an absolute gem nestled in the heart of Avila Beach! From the moment I stepped in, I was enchanted by the cozy ambiance and breathtaking view of the pier. But what truly stole the show was their impeccable wine selection - a connoisseur's dream come true! The variety was astounding, catering to every palate with finesse. The staff's knowledge and passion for wine were evident in every recommendation they made. Their personalized service elevated the entire experience, making me feel like a valued guest rather than just a customer. The attention to detail and genuine care in ensuring I found the perfect wine for my taste was unparalleled. Each glass was a delightful journey through flavors and aromas, complemented by the stunning sunset view. The staff's expertise in pairing wine with the delectable cheese and charcuterie boards added another layer of sophistication to the evening. Pierfront Wine Bar isn't just a place for wine enthusiasts; it's a haven for anyone seeking an exquisite experience. I can't recommend this place enough - it's a must-visit for anyone in search of top-notch wines and exceptional service in Avila Beach!“

“That was the best omelet I've had in a long time. The French fries were perfect, also the best I've had in a long time. The only downside was the fact that it was raining and we had to eat inside. The acoustics inside are awful. Go when it's sunny and eat outside. It's located within a harbor that has plenty of charm.“

“I had the pleasure of getting lunch with my parents and my girlfriend here. The food is nothing short of delicious idyllic French cuisine.Between the 4 of us we had the French onion soup, the Niçoise salad, and two trio combos ( croque monsieur, salad and chowder)In short, the view is heavenly, the service is impeccable, and the food is fabulous.Wheelchair accessibility: It’s all one level. You shouldn’t have trouble. Getting the bathroom may be a bit more difficult, as it is around the corner and through a door with a bit of a lip.“

“Amazingly surprised at how good this joint is. Pretty much a grab n go, so we were not expecting much, but we were hungry.We split a "kitchen sink" pizza, and WOW, it was delicious! The meats were fresh and nicely seasoned, and red sauce tasted freshly made. The crust was light and made with cornmeal which was very tasty.Looking forward to other menu options next trip!“

“Crab soup was wonderful. Scallops were fine/nothing special. The purple sweet potatoes were pureed and tasted like snotty, runny baby food.The swordfish served with bordelaise sauce didn't work. The crabcake lillikoi pepper jelly was way too overwhelming.Sadly disappointed.“

“This place has amazing sandwiches but they are quite expensive. However you do get a decent portion size and I would eat here again for sure.My biggest disappointment was with the service. I bought a sandwich not realizing they had a deal that if you buy a T-shirt, you get your sandwich for $5. I really wanted to get a T-shirt for my partner who grew up in SLO and has very fond memories of high st deli but now lives abroad- so when I saw the sign outside I went back in to see if they would honour the deal as I had just placed the order for the sandwich a few minutes ago (but hadn’t received it yet).They said no and then disregarded me, which is really poor service to me and a big disappointment overall.“
“Deltina formerly Quintessa.Is the best coffee in the central coast hands down.I loved coming in and getting my Large white mocha back when I lived here.They use dark roast for their espresso so it is always much more bold flavor wise than a medium roast or light for that matter.Loved the staff and the owner jack was always super kind and explained to me the entire roasting process which they do in house BTW.“
“This barn is very unique. Fun experience for the family. You can feed the goats and chicken. Purchase really cool handmade soap and other souvenirs. You will enjoy the little farmer market on-site. There are home made ice cream and more treats.“

“Driving through town, we needed a bite and want to thank all you 5-star reviewers of Spoon Trade for steering us here because the food was fantastic! It was a busy Saturday afternoon and we got one of the last tables available. Super friendly service straight away and a great vibe all around. Very interesting menu! A diner for foodies. Wife had the vegetarian Tikka with a side sausage patty, which she loved, and my son had the Benedict, which of course I tasted via dad tax and it was rich and yummy. I was going to get the chicken and waffles, which looked delicious on other people's tables, but opted for the duck noodle soup, which was a tasty ramen. It was on the pricy side, but everything was such great quality, original recipes, and made to order. We look forward to visiting again!“

“This is one of those "off the beaten path", "surprise find"-type places. We expected a restaurant, but the food counter is inside a liquor store. Regardless, super friendly staff, OUTSTANDING food, and more than ample portions. We took our food to a nearby park and enjoyed the views of the ocean.“
“This little hidden gem provides an intimate and welcoming ambiance for wine lovers and foodies as Region also partners with Hotel SLO's restaurant, Piadina. Highly recommend if you are wanting the perfect night out with wine and great food!“

“$7.50 for a latte now. Wow!The food and coffee here are way overpriced. So I go into AG for the same latte for $2.00 less.The atmosphere is nice and roomy and the service just OK. Sometimes better than others, like when I came in and the staff went home early so no food was being served so I have been going into AG instead ever since. The hours are unpredictable. The food and coffee are good but I can get the same thing down the street for much less.If I do go I go for the homemade yummy muffins.“

“We've eaten Ziggy's every time we come to SLO and stay at my wife's favorite place, the Madonna Inn. Every damn time, Ziggy's is one of the highlights that I look forward to. I love the KCK Korean cauliflower salad, the buffalo chicken sando, the breakfast burrito, avocado egg rolls, the crunch wrap, the mushroom burger, the ratchet fries, and more! 10/10 would recommend.“
“Met the boss, not sure if she was the owner but she wouldn't let me have a bad beer or sample from the same glass to insure I got the best flavor to pick from the menu. We got the pickled plate and it was actually good. Pickled veggies, fennel, cauliflower and several other offerings. I do not like beets but these I would eat again. You can even take pickling classes at this place and sounds like a lot of fun. Stop in and grab some veggies, a great brew and meet the locals. The place is primarily open to the elements so it is a little chilly in the winter months.“

“The food was awesome, but it tasted a bit bland and it could be a bit sweeter. You must try it as it is very good overall. The space inside is very small and there is not much room to move. The workers were very nice and helpful. I think that you should definitely give this place a try and support this small business.i also loved all the decorations and the inspirational quotes on the inside. I loved the mirror in the bathroom and the back of the door. They also, have a lot of different food options. So, you do not just have to get a smoothie they have other things as well. in conclusion, I would recommend this place as it is very nice and homey!!“

“Fabulous Mexican food. Seriously!I ordered the Birria Queso Taco Plate which comes with a delicious bowl of warm consomme for dipping. The three Birria tacos are served on freshly made corn tortillas and topped with onions, cilantro, and salsa. Lime wedges, pickled vegetables (marinated sliced carrots, onion, jalapeño or bell peppers) and a spicy hot haberno sauce are served on the side.I saw a lot of Mexicans either eating at the bar area or with their families at the dining tables which is usually a very good sign that the place is authentic. The service is friendly, the place is clean, and the food is served quickly.Ice cream, margaritas beer and wine are also served. A child menu includes Taco Combo, Quesadilla, and Burrito for a reasonable price under $9.I highly recommend this newly-opened Mexican restaurant next to the bowling alley in Pismo Beach. They are opened later than most places in February. For now, their hours are 10 am to 9 pm Sundays-Thursdays and 10 am to 10 pm on Fridays and Saturdays.I highly recommend this authentic Mexican restaurant.Vegetarian options: Vegetables are an option under “meat” choices. The marinated vegetables that are pickled came with my order.Kid-friendliness: There are kids eating at the tables with their families. A kids menu is also offered.Wheelchair accessibility: The entrance has a flat sidewalk that opens to glass double-doors so employees can see if a disabled person in a wheelchair needs assistance. The dining tables have chairs that can be rearranged to allow for wheelchair-access.“

“The best sourdough I've ever had! I live in north county but, any time I'm in or near Pismo I stop and grab a fresh loaf from House of the Rising Bread !! The guy that bakes all this goodness is such a nice man, super friendly, and the vibe in his little place feels really good . Haven't had a chance to try any of the sandwiches they prepare there but, I'm sure they're amazing with that delicious bread . Check it out and support this sweet business.“

“Always a great place for deli salads, pizza, and pasta. I ordered a slice of Margarita pizza, the Caprese salad with ripe grape tomatoes, fresh mozzarella balls, olives, red peppers, and sliced jalapenos, and lemonade. This combo is less than $13. Fresh ingredients are brought in daily for their dishes. Service is fast and friendly. Plenty of parking in this strip mall and outdoor seating. Highly recommend it!“

“We popped in here while on our walk from the Apple Farm to Cal Poly. It had been sprinkling so we wanted a hot cup of coffee and my son wanted a snack. My husband enjoyed his Gibraltar (espresso-based drink with steamed milk but less milk than a latte). I had an Oat Milk Latte with Honey Lavender which I had never had before. It had a unique flavor but not too strong. The cup was really big. They seem to only have one size. My son had the Raspberry Crumble Bar and he really liked it. The inside of the cafe is comfy with tables and chairs, plus lounge chairs lining the walls. They have an outdoor patio as well. The staff was friendly.“
“Great atmosphere and filled with people who enjoy their unique menu of ciders. Need to try their base (dry) in a flight along with other flavors that are based on this.Really enjoyed the unfiltered dry, and think my favorite flavored version was the cranberry.Vegetarian options: It's cider ?“
“Wonderful selection of international and domestic wines. Love that they get people out of their comfort zone with something interesting! They can supply you with some domestic staples but it's always nice to see a location not be afraid to get you out of your boring comfort zone. Reds, whites, sparkling. Great cheese plates and friendly staff that always makes it enjoyable to swing in and grab a glass!“

“As a Bavarian in America, this German restaurant was automatically worth a look. Looking for football twice as much. We came here to watch the Champions League and stayed to eat schnitzel.The taste was almost like being at home in a relaxed atmosphere with friendly service.We'd be happy to come back when we're nearby!Parking: There is a parking lot with ~30-40 spaces right next to the house“
“A highlight of our trip to the Central Coast! While it doesn't have a stunning view, it is a pretty, rustic, relaxing and charming place. Excellent wine! Excellent service too - nice people! What we especially like about Sextant is that instead of just serving bread or cheeses, you can actually get a meal here - and the food is very good - highly recommend!“

“Driving around, looking for healthier options for lunch, and this gem popped up on google maps. When I saw that this was vegan, I was not entirely sure how it would taste. I was pleasantly surprised by both of the meals we ordered. The tacos were delicious and the BLTA hit the spot! We walked away feeling full and full of energy from the awesome food. The staff were very courteous and we will be coming back to try more delicious options.“

“Now open for dinner on Friday and Saturday! We’ve eaten both breakfast and lunch here many times and it never disappoints. They now have 2 patios—the new one in front is a positive addition, and the original one is still lovely with all the garden plants. Good variety on the menu, kids menu, wine and wine cocktails as well.“
“Have been a member of Wolff for many years and visit whenever I'm in town - the beautiful view and delicious wine are worth the visit (LOVE their Chardonnay!) Was a bit windy so we hung out with Sharyl in the tasting room and had the most enjoyable time. It was such a great tasting experience - delicious wine coupled with her bubbly narratives and extensive wine knowledge. The vineyard is also a great spot to bring a picnic, buy a bottle (or two) and hang out.“

“Parking sucks - all spots in the small lot were taken when I pulled in and I never saw anyone pull out within the 30 minutes I was here, after having paid for parking down the street.The line was long and didn’t move fast.The environment is hip, but loud. Don’t expect to get work done here.The coffee is great - five stars here.“
“Excellent beer, and they really know how to make you feel at home! The staff here were the warmest and most welcoming people, and even though it was my first time going I was made to feel as though I was a regular. The moon dormie was the best blonde ale I have ever tasted, so naturally I had to take a crowler home. Will be going back when I’m in the area!“

“Man o Man.. I love biscuits and gravy and these guys shut me up!! First of all the single serving is HUGE (and I’m a fat guy) so get one and SHARE. The biscuit is big and flaky and hits all the right notes but the gravy is bewitching.I wish I had found them earlier on my many trips to pismo beach.“

“This place is great.., cute little spot and the food (I had breakfast) was sooo delicious, I've never had a waffle like this and it's by far the best ever! They take your order before you sit and it being my first time here they were amazing at explaining different menu items, shortly after I sat my meal was brought to me, I sat in the window over looking the park across the street and people watched as they went by. Definitely recommend this place.“
“We love coming to Biddle Ranch! After coming here with a friend who was a member, we fell in love with the olive trees in the sitting area and the amazing wine. The staff is always very friendly and prompt, even on busy weekends. Biddle Ranch also allows you to rent out the venue after hours and we took advantage of this to have a small get together with come clients while our favorite central coast band played some tunes. All in all, it is our favorite vineyard in SLO Cal and we are proud to bring out of towners in for a tasting.“

“While I am unable to truly post a review on the “atmosphere” due to it pouring rain and I was the only customer there, the umbrellas (clearly meant to provide shade from the sun) were a welcome cover to the sudden downpour and so was the tri tip sandwich. Delicious! It was a great meal following my amazing experience ATV riding on the Dunes. Combining for a brilliant start to my day. Rain and wind can’t ruin a great thing! Also the owner threw in a complimentary Clam Chowder, probably based on the fact that I supported them on a day when due to the weather, he wouldn’t be very busy. The Chowder was excellent, flavorful and filling! Remember though this spot is outside seating only, so be prepared for rain or shine!“

The restaurant was full of light, comfortable seating and the fiber art gives the vibe of a cool art exhibit. Chef Matti knocked it outta the park and Hakeem was so sweet, attentive and honestly, allowed us in for breaky right under the wire. Thank you!“

They couldn't believe they're gluten-free.It's a real challenge finding quality, delicious gluten-free treats, so I'm happy we have Monika's Macarons in SLO. I stop here regularly to pick up a couple to have with my afternoon coffee. They also have other delicious treats like carrot cake and creme brulee.“

“Wonderful food, view, and service. We sat at the bar and the ladies serving us were delightful. Our food came out so fast and the locals were so pleasant to chat with. Definitely better than any touristy place downtown. I almost don't want to post for fear it'll become overrun, but they were so nice I want them to do well. Thank you from Wisconsin!“
