“My husband and I had the Turkey wraps today. Great flavors but too skimpy on the Turkey.“

“Always great food with friendly and attentive service!“

“We went for lunch. We have been here before for lunch. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich and sweet potato fries. Hubby ordered the Apple Pie Burger and regular fries. The fries were good. The Burger was above average but not great. My chicken salad could use more chicken. I had ordered this before years ago and the recipe has not changed.“

“Manhattan clam chowder!!!“

“good chowder chowder great customer service i recommend this place 5 stars“

“We just happened to be staying in town on Valentine’s Day and they had a special set menu. Ohhh so good, we got the scallops, salad and desert. I could literally live on the salad. The risotto was so good! We ate upstairs and it was really cozy with the heaters and the nighttime atmosphere. The bar was lively and fun, our service was a bit slow but everything is so fresh! I can understand it is made to order. My only complaint, I’m so sorry but, I am a spicy Bloody Mary “snob” and the one here was not good at all. But that’s it! We loved everything else. Now to the owners who reply to reviews, I would have come here with all 1 star reviews just from reading your replies!!! Whoever you are I spent an hour reading reviews and your priceless replies! I adore you 😂 But honestly, really good food and very fun and great atmosphere. Back sooner than later♥️“

“Cool place, intense food!“

“great people and a good place for a beer.“

“Has a beautiful view of the bay. Went to try the chowder everyone raves about. The clam chowder was rich and creamy and so good. My husband tried the roasted red pepper soup which was good as well. I had the baja fish tacos. Huge amount of food and very good. My husband had the ribs. They were ok. The cole slaw just not so good. Alot of french fries and they were good. The bread served with the soup and ribs was so very good, great flavor. Disappointed because when the soup was brought out, the server told us the rest of our order was ditting under a heat light until we were ready. We actually had to call the restaurant to have the server bring thre rest of our food. So while the food was decent, the service could be improved. May go back for the chowder and to try a burger.“

“Nice place but... We visited this beautiful restaurant on July 30th For drinks and appetizers. We sat outside on the patio and it was lovely, the food was delicious and the wine very enjoyable. We recognized that we were seated at the table for about 2 1/2 - 3 hours so we continued to order appetizers and dessert while we were enjoying our wine and we also planned on leaving a generous tip. Toward the end of our stay as we were ordering our final glass of wine and dessert and were told by the waitress that she could not serve us anymore alcohol and and it has something to do with the ABC but she could not explain exactly what the issue was. Being in my 60's and never being denied service in my entire life, I was quite taken aback. We were served the dessert but no more alcohol. We paid our bill and walked down the street to another establishment where we continued to have our final glass of wine and watch the sunset and then walk back to the hotel. I'm still baffled by what occurred.“

“First time. Awesome time. Had the mahi sandwich and they gave me a great salad with it instead of forcing me to eat the fries. Saw the Grateful Dead tribute band. Awesome. Thanks so much guys!“

“A GREAT EXPERIENCE. DID THE CHOWDER CRUISE WHICH ALL ENJOYED. EVERYTHING FRESH AND TASTY. EXPERIENCED AND HELPFUL CREW. LOVE CAPTAIN ANNIE. OUR 4TH CRUISE BRINGING A GROUP WITH THEM. LAST ONE WE HAD ENOUGH TO DO A PRIVATE CRUISE. A DIFFERENT AND FUN OUTING ON THE CENTRAL COAST.“

“Best burger in town“

“Just the best food, service, and vibe. If you haven’t checked this place out, you should. You’ll be a regular in no time.“

“Absolutely love staying at this resort, and the Clubhouse Grill is a large part of that. Lively atmosphere, always friendly servers, and excellent food! Fun to eat outside on the patio while watching live music or golfers (depending on the day), or to eat inside watching sports on the large screen TVs. My husband generally gets the rib eye, and I have a few different favorites.“

“First time there. Had to make reservations for dinner on a Saturday so my boyfriend and I dressed nice for a date night. The place had great atmosphere, excellent lighting and the wait staff were very nice and professional. I was, however, disappointed that they didn't have any sort of dress code. We are local and were bummed to see people there in sweatshirts and flip flops, like they just walked in from the beach, when we had to make our dinner reservation a week prior.

We had the steak and the halibut. The steak was a perfect medium rare and had wonderful flavor. The halibut was also cooked perfectly but was paired with cooked spinach and together did not compliment well. I ate the halibut and was very pleased with it and finished the spinach separately.

All in all it was a nice experience and the food was good and we will be back.“

“Great service Great food Good selection of beer & wine“

“Stopped on our way home from S.L.O… Food is great and the Staff is always kind.“

“Great view great food and friendly service“

“Plenty of onsite free parking, excellent location, best service. Had the two egg, bacon, home fries breakfast. Eggs done right, bacon very thin and a bit overcooked, potatoes did not taste fresh. Great service, beautiful view of the bay and Morro Rock.“
