Made a reservation for Saturday night on the patio and got to enjoy the sunset with a great ocean view. Would recommend a reservation if you want to guarantee a spot on the patio during peak hours, but looks like you could also see the ocean from some of the tables inside as well. It got a bit chilly after the sun set, there were some fire pits the staff lit but you could only feel the warmth if seated directly next to them. Also, a lot of dogs on the patio but they were mainly well behaved.
Standard fare for a seafood place, prices are a bit high considering the food quality but makes sense based on the location and view.
Liked that they had warm cocktail options since it got chilly during the night.
Clearly labelled vegan options on the menu. Got the battered artichokes hearts (with spicy ketchup and citrus vinaigrette instead of ranch). Really tasty and went well with the alternate vegan sauces. For entrees we got the pasta primavera and veggie tacos (both made vegan by removing cheese). Both were tasty and good portion sizes as well.
Service was a bit slow but they seemed to be short staffed so understandable. Would come again for the view, also a good option for a nicer dinner if there are vegans in the group.

Moss Beach Distillery - wonderful place to relax and enjoy the coast. The food is delicious, the service is friendly, and the ocean view is absolutely beautiful. The decorative fire pits make the atmosphere feel so cozy and warm, especially as the sun sets. It’s the perfect spot for a peaceful meal or drinks while enjoyin the wave and the ocean

Dog friendly! Make sure you get a reservation if you want to sit at the patio. I got here at 12 pm (I had a reservation) when they opened and the tables out here filled up quick. It was nice out today with some breeze so I wasn't too hot or cold. They do offer umbrellas if you don't like the sun. I got the cioppino and it was loaded. It was absolutely delicious. My server was very attentive and their service was excellent. I'll come here again and try to get a sunset slot.

There are Two Ghosts here
One a Flapper Girl and One named Alama Reed
Flapper Girl is mischievous and Alma Reed
The halibut was dry, pasta bland, and the fish & chips greasy. The clam chowder, garlic bread and chicken strips delicious. Nice selection of spirits and wine. The wait staff was very attentive and the view is wonderful but the food made the evening overall, not quite worth the $250 bill for 3.

I’ve been here several times in the past and I have to say that my experience was better then. My rating is for my recent visit which I’m hoping is not the new normal.
The outdoor patio area has lost its charm and I’m not sure exactly why, but here are a few of my observations. There was one waiter for the entire outside patio area. Although he was efficient there were just too many table to serve in order to deliver good service to everyone. We waited quite a while before we got our drinks. When it was time to order, I asked what he recommended. Instead of reviewing specials and/or popular dishes, he told me that everything is good and he can’t give me a recommendation. This led to me asking questions about an array of dishes and all of a sudden ( I think out of frustration) he recommended a dish for me. He wasn’t rude at all, just over tasked. When the food arrived, my dish was lukewarm. It definitely waited somewhere and got too cold before making it to the table.
I would return as I think it must have been an off night. I definitely would not sit outside though if the staffing stays the same for the patio area.

The food here was horrible. The linguine tasted like sink water. I cldnt even make myself eat it just to get thru the evening. They replaced w the fresh halibut but that was super bland, the rice tasted like sweaty feet smell, and the veggies were extremely under cooked w virtually no flavor. Will never go back. It was expensive too. The server was nice and tried to make it right but even the table next to us sent their food back. Nice view, horrible food. My sister got sick from her steak too. Ask the locals where to go and stay away from this place.

We were on the outdoor patio. It took a while to get a waitstaff attention to ask for water. Our waiter was rude in providing a chair to one of us. He was even more offensive and dismissive in his behavior when we asked if we could pay our bill and purchase a T-shirt in the same transaction.
The Burger was V. V. average not sure what y'all are used to😆🕺 ➡️😂Service was slow on a Wednesday go figure right.

The staff were very friendly and all went out of their way to make sure we were enjoying our meal and drinks. The food was great. Good drink options too. Nice views and plenty of window seats.
