Brad's Restaurant Reviews
We've been coming here for 40 years and it's always been a favorite spot for fish and chips and tri tip! The atmosphere is wonderful (patio), and it's the first place that we go for food when visiting the central coast! An absolute must!
The staff was friendly and the food was pretty good. I prefer their clam chowder to the Splash Cafe, as it is thick and hearty which is much preferred. The fish and chips were tasted good, but the breading fell off the fish the moment I touched it. The chowder fries were a great treat as well.
Best clam chowder anywhere. Way better than splash cafe. Food is always amazing, service is great unless you get the rude older lady who has worked there for years and is always rude to everyone(the food is so good i continue to come here anyways) the rest of the staff are super friendly and helpful. The bbq buffalo clams are amazing too.
