50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Santa Margarita

“Went for lunch on a recent trip to California. Everything was very nice and their wine is excellent. Too bad that it is not located at the vineyard. The best experience that I have had at other places was restaurants and tasting rooms at vineyards, often with great views of the vines.“

“nice coffee with nice staff and good food and drinks ☺️“

“Can I tell you I recommend this place to everyone. Well tonight we had a misunderstanding on the wellness of my steak, but everything else was absolutely phenomenal. So I said something, and when I tell you, my steak came out picture perfect, from a magazine. I mean It. This place has everything. Ambiance, cocktails, plating perfection, hospitality. I could not recommend this place more. Please, do yourself a favor and enjoy this experience. ♥️“

“Delicious! Amazing service! Vibes unmatched. We got 4 different sandwiches and we all loved them. 10 out of 10 ⭐ "High"Ly recommend😁🥪💨💨💨“

“A true foodie experience! The food was to die for. Fine dining quality for the food and the service at very reasonable prices. The owner is so passionate about the food and told us about all the dishes and the ingredients etc. They asked about any allergies or dietary restrictions so they could accommodate. Wish I lived here so I could eat here every week! Just amazing!“

“Amazing food and ambience“

“We love Ziggy’s!! GREAT delicious plant-based comfort food and warm, fast, friendly service! I love the spicy Buffalo Chicken sandwich, the Avalon burger with arugula and Gouda, the Black Bean Taquitos, and the Avocado Tacos. Ziggy’s is absolutely awesome! Live long and prosper, Ziggy’s!“

“Beautiful ambiance. The guitar player’s music hit just the right balance of soul/jazz. The dishes were fantastic and the portions substantial.“

“Impressive service!,food and atmosphere! THE BEST place in Atascadero to eat. I hate going out to eat (no one cooks as good as home cooking) BUT hands down great food! I loved the patio seating! Not a negative to be found. 40+ year resident and ex waitress . Thank you!!“

“The custom cake I ordered was soo good. I got a 6 inch lemon cake with vanilla buttercream frosting and raspberry mousse. The 6 inch may seem small, but it was enough for 5 people and we had leftover cake afterwards that we ate the next day.

I wanted to put some nautical decor on that I made myself since we were eating it on a boat, and they were able to make the outside smooth & plain for me. I’m not sure that I did a great job with decor, lolll..I would probably ask them to do the decor themselves next time.

The lemon with the raspberry mousse was so good though. I might try a cream cheese frosting if I ever go back since I’m in LA, but the buttercream wasn’t too sweet.“

“Centrally located in the quaint historic downtown, on a side street with little traffic. Handicap parking spot right in front of the shop. A few tables and chairs to sit outside and enjoy your coffee in the sun. Large, bright interior with bright sunlight shining through the window. Plenty of seatings with high top and regular chairs. While busy when visiting there was basically no wait. Served quickly by a young, friendly and attentive associate. Good selection of hot and cold beverages and nice pastries. Counter area and tables were kept very clean. Great quality and reasonable pricing. Excellent find, will be our must stop when coming to or passing through SLO!“

“Sam and Mariah are such exemplary and loving community members that their bread is as good as it is. And Mariah just started making the best scones on top of all the love and work she pours into bread all morning!! Her and Sam work as crazy hard as they do because they love it and we love you bread bike!!“

“Great 👍 food and awesome service. Thanks 🙏“

“It all starts with sourcing the ingredients. This place does it better than any other. So fresh so and unique. Pair that with hand stretched dough and homemade sauce and you have the best pizza on the Central Coast. I’ve also been really impressed with their wine selection. They have some local favorites and some really awesome bottles you may not have heard of.“

“Amazing Gluten free options as well as great burgers!“

“I had the hot pastrami sooo good 👍“

“Sequel doesn't disappoint with quality and service!
I've visited many boba places across the Central Coast, and there's none quite like this!
Sequel is one I keep coming back to, especially if I'm in SLO.
There's lots of combinations for different tastes, whether you like green matchas or extra sweet jasmines! 🧋 It's definitely worth a visit!“

“I came here on a trip with my husband. We had had long day and were looking for some good food. That’s when we came across Ale’s. Not only was the service amazing!! The food was top tier. I got the quesadillas, he got the tacos. I’d give this place more stars if I could. The waiter was extremely attentive, even making conversation and jokes with us. Overall, felt like home. Definitely hoping to return in the future!“

“Delicious breakfast cooked to perfection nice quiet atmosphere And reasonable prices considering it’s California“

“Great spot if you like reds!

A very cozy, indoor and outdoor seating!

The host was so friendly, provided fantastic conversation!

Reservations are recommended as it gets quite busy. Pets are allowed as well!“

“Such a great way to taste wines from all over our area. 2-ounce tastes are great. I enjoyed a couple of whites, then a flight of reds from DRNK for $25. Best tasting variety.“

“We were here for the first time, and it won't be the last! Great food & beers & service!“

“Great server, great food and atmosphere!“

“Excellent flavors Excellent service We will definitely be back“

“Great time! Love the cowboy theme.“

“Checked out Field Day Coffee with a friend today. Space was utilized well as a coffee shop. Open and airy throughout the inside portion of the coffee shop. Ample outdoor seat which was a bonus, and just as the sun came out on our visit. Coffee was delicious and made to order correctly on the first time. I shared a Brown Butter cookie with my friend and it was Delicious. Pricing is fare and coffee tasted much better than other big brand coffee chains. Definitely recommend field day coffee if your visiting SLO. 👍“

“Had a really great homemade breakfast! Scones are insane! And the coffee is amazing!“

“Brought home a piece of gluten-free carrot cake today for my husband. He hasn’t had carrot cake for years because of the GF issue. It was absolutely amazing. Best carrot cake he has ever had. A very much enjoyed surprise. Thank you.“

“Bar branché sur le Camino Real“

“We love trivia and bingo nights, it's a chill and fun place to hang out as a family! The arcades are cool and bowling is great! I don't drink beer, but my husband does and he loves their beer, they have won a ton of awards!“

“Frustrating from a service standpoint but the food and cocktails were outstanding. We ended up being seated over an hour after our reservation time. This was a bummer since we were celebrating our anniversary. The bartender(s) were all great and kept checking on us and even went to check with the hostess about our table. Once we finally had a table and were on the way over, another hostess had given it away and we had to wait another several minutes for another table to be set. The one hostess apologized but took no action to make it right. It was a frustrating and disappointing experience on our anniversary. Only saving grace was food was excellent. Not sure when or if we'll be back.“

“Just at design village and several folks had a breakfast burrito... so I had a hankering for one as well. Found Taqueria Santa Cruz and ordered online... bacon bfast burrito, a big bag of chips and 2 salsas were waiting for me when arrived 5min later.“

“Sidecar is a must here in San Luis Obispo! The staff and the owners and everything about the place will knock your socks off. I think it’s high time. You guys open a second Sidecar by me in So Cal!“

“Awesome so nice ☕☕ very good cup!!“

“The place is a gem in downtown San Luis Obispo. Great food. Amazing service and phenomenal cuisine. I suggest the Escargot as a starter and the rest of the food options will not disappoint the lover of the fine dining experience. Highly recommend.“

“plenty of places to chill at indoors and outdoors Nice outside patio area in the back“

“I love Petra’s! We found this place at the beginning of Covid and have been going ever since. Last week driving from northern to southern CA we stopped for lunch(of course). I got distracted and left my purse…didn’t notice until Santa Maria. Called, of course they had my purse…AMAZING CREW AMAZING FOOD! Thank you“

“Stoped by for lunch yesterday.. Sorry, but could barely find the hamburger was so thin and small it didn't cover the bun. The flavor was good, but why cut back on the meat.“

“We had the most tasty Peruvian food in downtown San Luis Obispo at Coya in their new location at 851 Higuera St, San Luis Obispo, CA 93401. The chicken saltado one of the best I have ever had. The beef empanada large. The passion fruit drink, Maracuya, refreshing. All house made authentic Peruvian food. I hope you will visit Coya and enjoy the food as much as we did. The ambience beautifully decorated with traditional Peruvian products, clothing, hats, purses, dolls, cookies, coffee and lamas. Large dinning room and outdoor seating nice. We can’t wait to visit again to try More Peruvian food. Catalina the owner, very welcoming and took good care of us. Thank you 🥰“

“My friend and I, on vacation from Florida, have been following TPA since before they opened and finally had a chance to stop by and check it out. I wish we had more time to spend here! Cody was super welcoming and walked us through the current offerings, explaining what made each cider unique. Aside from that, the atmosphere of the space is perfect. It was a pretty chill rainy day and we had great conversations with those around us. Definitely a place to hang if you want friendly people and conversation. I can also see it being high energy during events... just a great place for a fun night. Thank you Cody, for the warm welcome! You are on our "must visit" list for future trips!“

“Awesome food, they have one of my favorite dishes: butternut squash ravioli with a white sauce. I finish the whole plate even if I’m so full I could pop! Outstanding service and a great atmosphere. I love Giuseppe’s 💖“

“Great night at Saints Barrel for a college/fraternity reunion! Beautiful place, great food and drinks — the champagne was amazing! Can’t wait to come back! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“The food was delicious and all ingredients were so fresh. Great value. I will definitely return.“

“Great little find in slo. Was bummed that they didn't get their fish order when I was there. Was very much looking forward to the red snapper ceviche. They did, however, have some delicious prawns. I had one of the best Chile rellenos stuffed with cheese and large prawns. Shredded beef tacos are highly recommended. The Baja fish tacos are flavorful and large. And our waiter was very attentive and friendly. Will be back again“

“I asked a very prominent Edna Valley grape farmer who the next up-and-coming wine maker in Edna Valley was, and he pointed me to El Lugar and their wine maker Coby Parker-Garcia. I dropped by their tasting room next to Ancient Owl and was absolutely blown away by the quality of their wines - the best tasting I’ve done on the Central Coast perhaps ever. They are very Pinot Noir heavy, which isn’t even one of my favorite varietals, but the artful skill of the winemaker shines through. I didn’t have a single wine I disliked, but their Pinot from Bien Naciedo stood out as an utterly flawless wine. How it doesn’t earn a 98–100 point score from wine critics is beyond me. That said, my personal favorite was their Pinot from Bassi Vineyard near Avila Beach. There was a very interesting cayenne note in there that made the wine really exciting and, lucky for me and my pocketbook, was one of the cheaper wines they sell. I don’t think you can go wrong here. The only error you can make is not coming paying this hidden gem a visit. I see a bright future for Coby and El Lugar.“

“Cool place, intense food!“

“Great variety of wines. I love learning about how the different wine makers produce their wines. Never disappointed with the tasting or my purchases. It is fun to get different varietals every shipment. My husband doesn't drink wine but we can go and enjoy because they also offer beer and cider. They even showcase a different wine maker each month - so much fun! I highly recommend checking out the Central Coast Wines.“

“Delicious food and a most excellent Bloody Mary.“

“Awful service!!! We needed a table for 2 and was told 5 minutes so we put our name on the list. Another server came to the next couple in line. Asked how many and the server took them straight to a table. At one point there were no servers on the floor for a solid 10 minutes. Nobody checked on us and we wanted another beer. I went to the bartender to order the beers, having to pay separately because they can't transfer the tab to the table. Not to mention that the bathrooms had ZERO toilet paper. None of the stalls. Not a good experience“

“The meat is deliciously superb! The brisket is incredibly moist and explodes with flavor! Super happy with our choice to come here.“
