“Presqu’ile had been recommended many times and so happy we finally made the trip. The mezze picnic lunch was outstanding (a must have - the chef rotates the seasonal menu about once a month), the wines were delish, and we had excellent service from Tom. Felt like we really got to know the place and the wines on a beautiful afternoon. Plus… Walter Anderson prints inside, harkening to the owners southern heritage! Be sure to plan in advance and make a reservation as it’s popular and books out.“

“Papa Murphy's is awesome take and bake pizza. The staff are very helpful and cool to meet. Their food is excellent and that is coming from an Italian from a long line of central coast Italian restaurant owners. Thank you guys for offering some great traditional food from southern Italy with your own Papa Murphy's twist. I am also very happy that they accept EBT which is great for the community. Thanks again!“

“My husband had beef enchiladas and fried beef taco, he loved it he said it was very tasty and his a chip and salsa lover, loved the salsa, you can ask for more at no charge.. I ordered the aguachile shrimp, in any restaurant you usually get 12 shrimp this place was more like 3 dz. I could not finish them very tasty, I would recommend this place, their margaritas are blended and taste great. If you go to Santa Maria stop here for a bite.“

“Today 11:12am I order special mini pizza with bacon and chicken and salad and drinks. first time eating here .wow was good 👍 nice customer service. Love it my pizza mini 🍕🍕🍕🍕🥗🥤. I have good lunch today. I come again next time“

“Food is great, but service has been poor lately. The restaurant gets way too many To-Go orders to keep up with, which results in poor service to indoor customers who’ve waited 45 min or more from when they initially ordered their food.“

“Food and service were excellent. Best egg foo young I’ve several years.“

“Great service and food 😃😃😃“

“cool staff one of a kind flavor mom n pop shop way better than chipotle 👎 best salsa for a decade combination plates affordable you see all the locals here.“

“We came for the menudo which was absolutely delicious I only wish it had hominy but it's ok I understand not everyone adds that to the menudo. I also ordered the red chilaquiles with Asada and I was so pleased with the taste of everything. The only thing that would have made it even better was if the tortillas were freshly made.“

“I've eaten many things on the menu here. Every single thing has been top tier and reasonable for the price. The pad Thai is probably the best I've had anywhere, and the spicy noodle bowl was delicious and fed me for 2.5 meals. You can find me in here every week or so.“

“It certainly has come a long way of the days of having the creepy singing bears. Lots to entertain my two year old granddaughter. The “meal deals” really aren’t deals. You’re better off ordering everything separately. This pizza is surprisingly good. We will definitely take the two year old back there.“

“You can relax and watch TV. You can have a beer or a glass of wine. The kids can spend all your quarters on the video games lol Their pizza is a little pricey but we’ll worth it. It is great quality food Their always always clean. Be aware that servers are serving your food. If you need something ask one of the girls and the will try and accommodate you. Enjoy!!!!“

“we love this Blaze, Tristan is awesome. he is super efficient and fast. He knows pizza. He is friendly. He seems to be able to do it all and more. what a rockstar! Danielle is a pro at the oven and super nice. She has a great attitude and really cares about what she does. There is a girl at the topping station that is Breaking world record topping speeds. These guys all need raises.“

“👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Great pizza and fantastic sandwiches!“

“It's Applebee's and I know what to expect as far as food. I stick to fresher items like salads and grilled chicken dishes. What makes this place stand out is the staff. Ezra Paco makes you feel like part of the family. I've been a frequent patron in the last 2 years. He know my drink preferences, food likes and dislikes. His engaging and accurate prompt service is should be applauded. Support staff and bartenders add to welcoming feeling of the Santa Maria A-b's
Also great for large parties. I brought a large party here after a celebration of life. Everyone enjoyed themselves. Thanks Ezra Paco.“

“We especially like the fish tacos, shrimp and beef quesadillas and tamales! They’re delicious! Anxious to try other items on the menu. We also love your commitment to the community and your patrons. Your FREE Christmas dinner and giveaways demonstrate your generosity and kindness to those you serve.“

“I was greated with the biggest smile and warmest welcome. The service was great and food fantastic!“

“We stopped by for a weekend lunch in order to get some last minute shopping out of the way afterwards. I got their barbecue chicken teriyaki bento special ($16). I should've split it with my friend as we both struggled to get through half of each of our bento orders. The bento comes with salad, steamed rice, miso soup, mixed tempura, and 4 pieces of a California roll. Luckily, the server had given our order packed to-go so I could easily take it back to the hotel and stick the leftovers in the fridge.

They have some seating indoors, but you can grab a table inside the mall if you're meeting up with others grabbing food from another eatery.

They're also right by one of the entrances from the parking structure, so not too hard to find.“

“one of the better Mexican restaurants in the world. i am always satisfyed with the delicious food. great prices“

“Great sushi bar with fresh fish, well-balanced flavors, and beautifully presented rolls. The menu has a solid variety, from classic favorites to creative specialty rolls, and everything tastes high quality. Friendly service, relaxed atmosphere, and consistently good food make this a spot worth coming back to.“

“the chili rellenos are bomb the fajitas an excellent we have the best beans in town I highly recommend Old Town Mexican Cafe“

“Always love coming here with my friends and family every now and again. The workers are always so kind and helpful, the tables and seating were clean, and I always love cooking the food with my love ones! Thank you for all of the wonderful memories!!!

Though if you’re the type of person who is looking for a quiet and peaceful atmosphere, then this is probably not the n place to you since there are so many birthdays being celebrated here.“
