Great! Was so good for lunch, came back that night for dinner, and happy we did. Chef is the owner, serious food talent. House-turned-into-restaurant, chill vibe, really, really good food. Go and enjoy!

It was our first time visiting Cambria and I'm so happy I found this place. This restaurant is excellent, not much else to say. I will be returning.

The food was fantastic, and the service was amazing. The atmosphere in the back patio was cozy, and I would have left 5 stars, but when I was there with my parents, the couple next to us had this little dog that kept letting out these sharp, shrill, ear piercing barks like once every minute or so and it was so freaking annoying. I support being pet friendly but badly behaving dogs that bark and disturb the other patrons should not be tolerated.

This is such a nice spot. The building and location is so cute and cozy, and waitress very friendly. We shared the meatballs and a steak with a side salad, and you could tell that the food was high quality, very fresh, and prepared with care. It's a little expensive, but that's expected with a restaurant of this quality. I'd rather pay it here than at some lifeless fancy chain. Unfortunately, I didn't take any pics of the food, since we ate it too quick, but you can see how beautiful, quaint, and historic this place is in the ambiance photos I got. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a nice dining experience on the central coast.

This place is quaint, sweet, and the art is also amazing. The food was good but options are slim and they were out of quite a few things. The rooms are teeeny (imagine your actual dining room at home, or smaller, with 6-8 tables around the parameter of the room). There is one waitress for the entire place and she is kind and hardworking, but will not be able to serve everyone. We got forgotten, had to find her to get the dessert we had ordered earlier, and then also walk around to find her for the bill as she didn’t come back. She’s super busy running around and it’s not her fault as every table was full. But when you’re paying so much for the food…you want your waitress to be available to bring it.

Stopped at Brydge for a late lunch when exploring the Central Coast. It’s a converted home off the main street of Cambira. It has cozy atmosphere & lovely back patio. The petrale sole appetizer was magical. The waygu burger was perfect.

I cute place to have some quick bites. They offer a nice variety of shared plates, their main courses are limited but overall a very quaint place to enjoy a meal.

Parking: There’s about 8 parking spots in their designated parking area. Very accessible.

So happy we found Brydge to dine at for our 5th wedding anniversary! The ambiance was perfect, homey, modern, down to earth, great music and very unique artwork. A shareable menu which made the dining experience so fun for us as we compared tastings. We had 3 shareable starts, mushrooms, potatoes and sole- all of which we would choose again but our favorite was the sole with leek, sage and onion. AMAZING. How do you even make leek taste like that? It was so so good. We share the half chicken with olives and polenta for our main and it was delicious I hope to make something similar at home for a nice comfort meal. We had the pistachio gelato topped with sea salt and it couldn’t have been a better finish. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back!

**Where do I even begin?**
Brydge restaurant is one of the most beautiful restaurants we've ever been to. It’s a small house built from redwood trees and has been a restaurant since 1940. The lighting, music, and interior are stunning, creating a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The food was outstanding. We shared two appetizers and had the rib-eye for the main course – everything was cooked to perfection, wonderfully seasoned and prepared. Chef Elaine knows what she’s doing, and the ingredients are locally sourced. Delphine was our waitress that evening, incredibly attentive and friendly, making it hard for us to leave. If this restaurant were closer to home, we'd go weekly. Highly recommended!

Delfina was great. Food is sooo good. We came from Daly City for the Hearst Castle tour and stumbled upon Brydge for dinner. I will do the 3+ hours drive just to come here.
It's worth it.

Wow.!! We’d heard about Brydge and since it’s tucked away, forgot about it. But then remembered and looked it up on the map and it’s a 1 minute walk from Main St so we went. Got right in, had great service from Kyle and ate an amazing meal. We had the beets and then the King Salmon Supper. They were both great. Beets with Blue Cheese and the Crispy skinned salmon was amazing. We sat out back and it was peaceful. 4 stars only for the plastic tables and chairs. Cute place.
Highly recommend. Will be back
