“My Easter dinner experience in the Sunset restaurant was truly delightful. The quiet ambiance was wonderfully enhanced by the fact that the restaurant overlooks the ocean in Trinidad, California, creating a truly relaxing and picturesque setting. The service throughout the meal struck the perfect balance – attentive and responsive without ever feeling intrusive.
The meal began with a comforting and flavorful appetizer of tender beef cuts and savory mushrooms served over mashed potatoes that had a noticeable texture to the blend, all enhanced by a rich beef gravy. I found the 'Shark Bite' Wheat IPA to be a satisfying accompaniment to this course. Following the appetizer, my vibrant shrimp pasta arrived, featuring generous portions of shrimp and a bright white wine and citrus sauce that beautifully evoked the flavors of Spring and the coast. This delicious course was accompanied by a refreshing guava mule mocktail from the menu, which my attentive server kindly 'tainted' with a shot of vodka, adding a little extra kick to the enjoyable drink. While the pasta shape required a bit of care to eat neatly, it encouraged a slower pace, allowing me to fully savor the dish and my cocktail. For dessert, instead of a classic trifle, I enjoyed a delightful chocolate variation.
As I finished my dining experience with a chocolate mousse with brownies truffle, I found it to be good, though the brownies were a tad tough. For future enjoyment of such a dessert, I would highly recommend serving the brownies warm to enhance their texture and create a lovely contrast with the cool mousse.
Overall, the combination of enjoyable courses, excellent and accommodating service, the perfectly timed and personalized beverage, and the beautiful ocean view made for a wonderful Easter dinner. This restaurant offers a truly pleasant and well-rounded dining experience in a stunning location.“

“As always, the fish and chips are my favorite in Humboldt - fresh fish, lovely finish on the batter. The highlight this visit was the Trinidad Fog drink (Earl Grey Latte with Humboldt twist) from the coffee/tea bar... delicious and had me craving another for days.“

“Abalone, crab, 8oz baseball steak dinner for two. Great bargain for the wonderful atmosphere, perfect cuisine, great service. Highly recommend. Our waiter was excellent. Wish I could remember his name he was very professional which added to a special night. Having the option to pre-book beachside view by the window was a nice option.“
