    Multiple dishes were overly salted. Expect average food quality (overcooked well done steak, gamey lamb). Rushed service, server forgot about an order, dessert was presented before we were finished with main courses. Unpleasant staff members heard gossiping about other guests among themselves. The overall experience at Navio has gone downhill.

    Murshroom was too salty, only allow to order 2 each time, which would be OK if the server actually conme by more often to take the next order Upon desert is served, we had to chase down the server to ask if we can order tea or coffee???? That should be asked the same time, no? I think probably becasue not enough servers due to slow business. Food selection was very limited, sholud have more seafood in main course, not everyone LOVES meat

    Michelin Recommended Restaurant, located in the prestigious Ritz Carlton Half Moon Bay. Stunning views of the Pacific coast and golf course. Outstanding choice for special occasions! Be sure to reserve your spot through open table for a brunch dining experience. Currently (May 11, 2025) priced at $255 per person + tax and 20% gratuity. All you can eat for 90 minutes, then dessert tower for the last 30 minutes. Order two dishes at a time (per guest). They offer an extensive wine pairing and elaborate cocktails($26 per drink). Definitely recommend the caviar (sturgeon, trout, and paddlefish). The scallop was perfectly seared and served with an incredible creamy sauce. For Mother’s Day, they featured rack of lamb and smoked salmon eggs Benedict. Lamb, charred on the outside, and tender red center(one of the best menu items). The eggs Benedict, perfectly poached, runny egg over spinach and tomato with hollandaise sauce. Another savory offering was their beef tenderloin over potato parmentier(like a creamy mashed potatoes). Soft, tender, smoky beef over this silky smooth mashed potatoes. For the vegetarian option, they offered the Maitake mushroom with ponzu nori rice pearls, which was surprisingly delicious, tasting citrus and savory. The shrimp cocktail dish offered three colossal shrimp over a spicy cocktail sauce. We also loved the lobster roll, small but generous amounts of main lobster meat with smoked trout caviar. The navy bean soup was very tasty, thick chunks of bacon. I loved the berry Belgium waffle, with came with house made whipped cream and real maple syrup. Absolutely delicious blueberry and strawberry sauce over the crispy Belgium waffles. After 90 minutes, and ordering 3 servings of caviar, I was completely satisfied. The final dessert tower was impressive: chocolate cappuccino tiramisu, fruit pain de gene, s’more chocolate cheesecake, and Mother’s Day strawberry shortbread!
