“Amazing service and great food!!!“

“Feels like an island getaway! Service has always been superb, the food tastes incredible with a beautiful presentation, and visit the very personable bartender for a well made cocktail or mocktail! We will always come back.“

“When traveling along the coast, I always make it a point to stop at ManRock Brewing Co. Beers are incredible (loved the “Get Him a Hoppy Bag” triple hazy IPA), food is great and comes out fast (try the bacon covered hot dog) and service is always friendly. Was surprised and happy to find they were open July 4th too! Was also able to get some cans of my favorites to bring home.“

“Amazing food! I love this place, the food is sooo good, fresh and good quantity and friendly service. Today, I had one of my fav: biscuits and gravy, hash browns and a pancake!!!!!!! Can’t wait to go back“

“always GREAT! Very cool nw menu every month!“

“3 piece fish chips very small pieces over seasoned fries. Fish bite wet in mouth with oil. First time here“

“Urbane Cafe went above and beyond my expectations with their teacher appreciation day. I enjoyed my free meal and the 1:1 attention and greeting that welcomed me to the location. It was my first visit to any Urbane Cafe and Arroyo Grande did the name and their store proud. Thank you.“

“We simply loved our first time at Kitchen & Vine today! (SLO Public Market). I enjoyed the classic breakfast. Hearty, high quality bacon! Delicious. The potatoes were awesome. I grew up on a farm, and on breakfast like this, and I love that I can find it "farm fresh" here in SLO. The sourdough bread was fantastic! It had us ask "do you make your bread or who does?" Back Porch Bakery was the response. So great. Peter said to me, "please get some." 😊 We also loved the setting, the spaciousness of the place. Really big patio and outdoor space. And, a wonderful woman took our order. She totally heard me, got us and delivered. See, my husband likes his hot food really HOT in temperature and his cold food really COLD. So when we order we always make a special request about it. She was so great AND when she brought his Carnitas Scramble out it was STEAMING. 🥰 It was also delicious. Finally, our dog Sophie was seen and appreciated. A server came by and asked if he could bring her a bowl of water. A big bowl came and she lapped it up appreciatively. We'll be back. We already know it's going to be a favorite. Wonderful energy. ❤️“

“Well established and great reputation. Very good service.“

“I had to get my Spirit burger and sweet potato frie Fix! soooo good. But honestly the whole menu is great“

“Great burgers nice people worth the stop.“

“👍🏻 A great place to hang out on a Sunday afternoon and listen to live music and have a meal“

“I've traveled a lot to the Seattle area and wasn't sure what to expect for oysters, but they were exceptional, they get them fresh on Friday and they are perfectly briny, the wines are good, also had the bread and butter. Quiet spot, shucking your own oysters I thought was fun, but you can get them shucked as well.“

“Love the new menu! Awesome service! My husband and I have lived in Trilogy for 16 years and love Adelina’s more then ever 👍“

“Beautiful place good events music by Ras Danny and the Reggae All Stars 🌟 Nice pool menu service and more!“

“Cobb salad 🥗 is delicious“

“I had their chorizo and eggs so yummy!“

“We enjoyed our meal here. I think that they may have been understaffed at they seemed to struggle to keep up with so the tables they were taking care of. The food was great with dinner unique options available. The restaurant theming was nice as well, had a bit of a Disney feel to it.“

“We arrived for 5 p.m. Friday evening for patio dining and live music. Pleasantly surprised to be offered free champagne or a glass of wine (from 4-6 pm weekdays)The view was spectacular the service was great and I have recommended to my friends that we should come back on another Friday.“

“the birria tacos are on point, crispy and juicy at the same time. we also ordered fries and cheese on the side. the only thing that caught me off guard is that the birria consome is an extra 1.25 per cup which i dont remember seeing that on the menu.“

“Cool hangout, we sampled a few of the beers and are planning on trying the food.“

“This is a place I always ome to when I'm in town. The first time I went there, I was alone and a nice man named Dave who was sitting in a booth with someone socializing started talking to me. The next couple of times I went, he was there. He doesnt remember my name but he remembers my face. Ive met lots of locals through Dave. Its also a place my Uncle frequently eats. They dont serve alcohol but it reminds me of a diner version of Cheers. The food is good and the coffee is great. You may even find someone to talk to. The outdoor seating is very comfortable.“

“First time we are there for Brunch and the Eggs Benedict was unsurpassed!“

“this is my happy place! staff always go above and beyond to make our stays great. they are friendly and i love how every time you walk thru the lobby they greet you with good morning...welcome back ..etc. the restaurant is absolutely to die for. the rooms are amazing and the views breathtaking. we visit at least twice a year and always celebrate our anniversary here ! January cant come soon enough.“

“Amazing Gluten free options as well as great burgers!“

“We are from the Bay Area, but Zorro’s is probably my top restaurant for Mexican food among all we frequent. Tastes are exquisite. A very large selection. Staff is friendly and efficient. I wish we could go there each week, but alas, we would have to travel 200 miles to do so. You will not regret this. Enjoy and savor the experience.“

“We came in around 6pm on a weekday and they are kinda busy, parking was easy, not always the case in Pismo specially around their area, parking is always one of the reason why we hesitate to come here, specially on a summer. Anyway enough of the parking, service was great, friendly host, attentive server, fast service, food came out quick. They have plenty of options. Their menu is basically american diner/bar food.“

“Awesome food! Even though it is slightly expensive it is 100% worth it!“

“We stayed at Vespera Resort last December for a local anniversary staycation with our two dogs, and it far exceeded our expectations. From the moment we checked in, the front desk staff made us feel so welcomed and celebrated—especially Danielle, Aiden, and several other team members whose names I can't recall, but whose kindness made a lasting impression. The little touches throughout our stay, like a surprise delivery of wine and cake to our room and genuine warmth from every staff interaction, made our celebration feel truly meaningful. Thanks to this stay, we’ve already booked a return visit for our next celebration in October. We’re so grateful to the Vespera team for making our anniversary unforgettable.“

“Delicious food! Very nice atmosphere.“

“Dining out and given the option of a special is always a treat and i usually go for it. one word to describe the skirt steak last night GROSS...never have i seen or been served such a horrible piece of meat. embarrassment for your chef/ kitchen and then our server. Lisa was so helpful and caring, sure it messed her up for awhile too. by the way its librarian lisa. bottom line no way should a kitchen send out such a tough piece of meat, I couldnt even cut it . it was either not prepped correctly or the supplier might needs replaced? sorry we're locals and enjoy the patio and will continue for breakfast, but the dinner menu is off limits.“

“Great atmosphere. Great food“

“Wonderful staff and service! The food is fresh and delicious, and the cocktails too. We love coming here for happy hour to catch the beautiful sunsets.“

“My mom and I had been driving all day and pulled into Hoagies about 2 minutes before closing time. We asked CJ and Taylor if it would be possible to still order some food. They said they were happy to do so! Then we told them they we both have celiac disease and asked if they could give us something gluten free. They both went out of their way to read labels for us and even asked if we would like to have corn tortilla strips on our salads instead of croutons (which are not gluten free). They couldn’t have been nicer! As a plus, the food was delicious. Susan and Megan“

“Sylvester’s is a great place to get delicious food there so good“

“Great fresh authentic Mexican good. The staff is family owned, so we know how family reputation is, they’re a 10+ in my book. And, it’s fast service and they’re like family Now! After six months, we family. Lol“

“Took my mom for lunch. I ordered daily special of lobster chile relleno which came with rice, and it was absolutely delicious. Mom had seafood salad croissant and she loved it. Generous servings and good service. Will definitely be back“

“If you want to pay a premium for your order, and then not get what you ordered, please pay a visit to The Burger Den! oh and if you ordered through a delivery service or their website, good luck finding a phone number to contact them when they fudge your order. Food 7/10 Service 0/10 reliability 0/10“

“Working around the corner last week, I decided to pop in for lunch. I only get 30 min so time is of the essence. I was greeted with a smile immediately, seated and drink order taken. Once my lunch order was taken it took literally 5 min to receive it-this is what I call top service. The place was remarkably clean, staff was super friendly and great, and to top if off, I was out of there within 20 min. I have a have had bad experiences at other Dennys, but this one changed my thought about it all together. I will defiantly be back when working in SLO again. Thanks Dennys team!“

“My whole fam came and ate and it was awesome! Nachos are large, their carne asada is great! And their burritos are large!“
