The Dutchie Reviews
Best fish I’ve ever had! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 The view is top notch, highly recommend.
My wife and I had lunch there as part of our 40th anniversary trip. She had the fried shrimp and I had the snapper plate, both were delicious. We love Morro Bay and always stop here to have a bite to eat and some drinks.
Great food and friendly service!

The Dutchie is a well-loved restaurant located in Morro Bay with an excellent view of the ocean. Known for its seafood-focused menu, it offers a variety of dishes including fish and chips, clam chowder, and local fish like petrale sole. The fish and chips, especially the halibut and cod, are praised for being freshly fried with a light batter, and the fish is described as flaky and delicious. The clam chowder is a popular choice, with some reviews highlighting its authentic flavor and generous clams, especially when served in a bread bowl. However, there are occasional comments about the chowder not always being served hot or tasting sandy, which may suggest inconsistent preparation.
The restaurant’s service is generally fast, friendly, and attentive, with staff accommodating outdoor seating and even bringing water bowls for dogs. The setting offers fantastic ocean views, often with sights of sailboats and sea otters, creating a pleasant dining atmosphere. Appetizers like shrimp croquettes and calamari are available, though some feel the breading could be more flavorful. The seasonal beet and burrata salad is noted for its gorgeous presentation and delicious taste. Overall, The Dutchie is highly recommended for its great location, seafood quality, and welcoming service, making it a favorite spot for both locals and visitors.
