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

“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.“

“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 place was busy, yet we only waited 15 minutes to be seated. The restaurant was clean, the server was friendly and the food was delicious. Reasonably priced for the quality and portion sizes. The chicken strips were hand battered and good. I would recommend this place.“

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

“Local goto place for burgers, loaded fries and Baja fish tacos. It's got a dive bar vibe located right across from the splash cafe. Happy hour starts at 2pm!!! $7,$8 margaritis and mai tais and food costs only $7-$8! They allowed us to park our bike outside and the service was wonderful!“

“Absolutely perfect from the moment you step foot into the hotel! Favorite part has to be the views and private spa on the patio❣️“

“Absolutely satisfying service. Ryan went above and beyond. Awesome ambience! When each dish titilates your taste buds, you know the chef has done what it needs to satisfy the customer/diner. Presentation, ingredients, and optimal cooking time and preparation made the experience top notch“

“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 had an amazing meal for my daughter's birthday and our server was great.“

“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“
