- AAuroraSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoJulie, our server was very friendly. We really enjoyed her going over the menu and telling us a specials and be very thorough about how accommodating the restaurant is with their menu . My nine year-old was with us, and they accommodated him to have the prawns with the side of pasta, which was perfect for him.. although the restaurant is kid from me, it is quiet, so it’s a good date night or also a good place for birthday celebrations. Every meal there is perfectly cooked. Great seasonings portions are reasonable, and prices are too. Consider putting Bay area prices. They have a drink menu, and they’re known for their old fashions.More infoInn at Tres PinosPrice: Expensive• Continental• Hollister•4.8

- AAndreaCalifornia Central Coast •5 reviews5.0Dined on Aug 24, 2024I didn’t realize that it’s actually within the Doubletree hotel if that’s the hotel at the Prune Yard. No one was there. According to two servers, they didn’t have our reservation or at least there wasn’t a manager to confirm. We were the only customers until later in the evening. They looked like hotel customers were coming in, sitting at the bar and the outside fire pit so we had the servers to ourselves. They were very personable, helpful & friendly. The food was excellent and the prices were reasonable. I was with three other people. We had a really nice time and it was for my birthday last month, but getting together with friends to celebrate.More infoPY Kitchen + Wine GardenPrice: Moderate• Latin American• Campbell•4.2
