A safe choice Facility is Dated and showing its age but it's okay Food was good quality. Nicely prepared. Good standard items. A bit pricey. The staff is super friendly.

Food was good, but the seafood omelette did not have enough seafood. Use to go to this restaurant along time ago and the omelette was better. It's pricey so it should be better. The other dishes we all had were delicious.

Food was fantastic. Our party of five ordered four different items off the brunch menu and everything was superb. The pozole was the best — 3of us shared a bowl for an appetizer) while we were waiting for the others to find parking (often the only downside of dining at WF.

Sandra

The service staff and management were accommodating and considerate. The service was quick and the staff were wonderful. The food was delicious. The view of the Pacific Ocean was stunning.

Flickering lights, slow service, mediocre food (hopefully cooked properly), açaí that you eat with a fork and knife…. Salt that you can’t even shake because the top is caked and brown. Hopefully we don’t end up getting food poisoning from eating here. It used to be on of our favorite spots to bring family for breakfast. So sad to see it going so downhill.

Nothing drives me more crazy than when a table for 4 is made into a table for 5 by stuffing someone at the end of the table. We were seated under the “covered patio” but the 2 seats up against the window are definitely NOT covered. I did not finish my food because the roof was dripping water into it while I was trying to eat. The only solution for us to attempt to finish our meal was to cram ourselves even further onto the end of the table that was already too packed. Food was really good though. And our waitress was really nice and did her best considering how busy she was. But patrons should be warned that the “covered patio” only covers half the table and should not sit there when it is raining or else you will be soaked and your food will be rained on.

Great location right on the beach. The food was excellent. It is a casual vibe which fits the location perfectly. Family friendly with good kids menu.

Serge

Good food, nice atmosphere family friendly. Several people in our group are vegetarian and they actually had a nice tofu dish as well as an angel hair, pasta dish, and fresh guac with chips that satisfied the group I had the charged salmon. It was excellent.

Dinner was delicious as usual. All three of us ordered the fish and chips and when we asked for extra tartar sauce and cocktail sauce, they obliged it's one of our favorite go to restaurants, and we brought a friend that was visiting from Virginia. She thought the fish and chips were absolutely delicious. Well done, World Famous!

Carmen

The seafood was exceptional, fresh, seasoned and cooked to perfection. We had the Lobster salad and could not believe the amount of lobster they gave you and the vinaigrette was incredible. We halos had the taco trio, what a treat shrimp, cod fish & calamari each cooked in different seasoning which really brought out the flavors and also had the clam chowder, I'm from the east coast and this can compete against the Boston version. Could not go wrong with any of their drinks and we had the blueberry (yes blueberry) bread pudding... OMG! Can't forget our waitress Madelyn J, she is a pro continuously anticipating our needs. The view of the Pacific Ocean was the cherry on top

I make reservations often when I have visitors from out of town. Restaurant and Staff are always so accommodating, I never have any complaints. I highly recommend for small or large parties.

We enjoyed taking our grown son and granddaughter for a seaside dinner. We brought along the family pooch so we sat outside on the patio with a great view of the ocean.

Susan

Overall it was OK. The fact that our server wasn't friendly at all kind of ruined our celebration of a birthday which wasn't acknowledged even though I mentioned it at the time of making the reservation. Eating and seeing the ocean was a plus.
