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

“Manhattan clam chowder!!!“

“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♥️“

“Traveling with a dog, and always enjoy the food and atmosphere near the bay.“

“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.“

“One of our favorite places on the central coast. We would highly recommend this place to everyone.“

“Great location and food at reasonable prices.“

“Best fish I’ve ever had! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 The view is top notch, highly recommend.“

“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.“

“ABSOLUTELY best filet ever ! Then, to top it off.....MALIA our server was OUTTA SIGHT! A ++++ Best of the Best and then some Banana's Foster! You can't go wrong here !!!“

“Emily was amazing. She had to deal with two large groups that were very rude to her during the time we were there on Sunday but she kept providing us with excellent customer service. Food was incredible and definitely worth the extra time. We will be back for sure!“

“All the staff in the restaurant are great. Bar is wonderful and bartender is super friendly. The dinner items that we ordered:
Nachos - no flavor at all. Could have used salsa and seasoning on the ground meat.
Steak and fries - great flavor if they eased up on the garlic. The cut of meat was not correct for that dish. It was way too chewy. I would have used a skirt steak, medium cooked.
Mac n cheese - no flavor and really soupy. So bland!!!
Breakfast burritos - ask for the potatoes on the side not in the burrito. The chunks are way too big. Flavor was great. Could have used some beans in it.
Biscuits and gravy - really great dish! Seasoned well and the biscuit were buttery. I got the fried chicken on the side. Good crust. Nice flavor. Too thin so it was a little dry. I probably would have preferred the sausage.“

“Absurdly fresh seafood, and friendly service. I’m an “out-of-towner,” but I was extremely pleased.“

“Very nice place...I'll be back for sures...Had the Morro Bay Burger...excellent. I should have had the pancakes...I seen a lot of people ordering them. They looked delicious... like I said I'll be back“

“We’ve been going to Hofbrau for over 20 years. Just had one of the best meals ever there today. Sat outside on the new glass enclosed deck over the water. Amazing view. Beautiful day. Had the best, tender and flavorful roast beef sandwich- a jailhouse (roast beef, pastrami & provolone - a Reuben and calamari strips. It was all perfect!“

“I had lunch at this restaurant while doing a road trip through the PCH. I was really satisfied with the flavor of the food. Perhaps, one of the best Thai food I have ever had. Would love to go back if I ever do that road trip again.“

“My husband and I hosted a rehearsal dinner here a few weeks ago and it was perfect! From the get go, Monica was easy to reach out to, accommodating and went over and above what she said she would do!“

“Warm, welcoming, and utterly delicious. The manicotti was divine, the service felt like family, and the spumoni ice cream was the perfect ending. A five-star experience from start to finish.“

“I been eating at Noi's 20+years and I'll eat another 20+ love there number 6 noodle.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥“

“I can’t believe you could set foot in Morro Bay and NOT set foot in Giovanni’s! Okay, I can accept if you place an order at the walk up window. Either way, you should probably head into the seafood market to peruse or avoid setting foot in the place and order at the walk up window ya louse….“

“halibut taste Frozen. Clam Chowder Bowl was okay“

“The seafood pasta was so good. I wasn't expecting it to be like a soup, but I have zero complaints. Copious amounts of clams, shrimp, and fish. The noodles were perfectly cooked. It was fantastic. Service was very good as well. Welcoming and warm atmosphere. Waitress was very attentive and nice. Dined in the evening of the 12th of Sep.“
