Cayucos Restaurants

Definitely a must do when visiting SLO or for special occasion. Romantic nostalgic setting; a bit tacky; but that adds to charm & history of it. I did not see waterfall in urinal though I’ve dined here about 5-6xs…as I have no desire to go in “men’s bathroom” or view a urjnal, ever-LOL! Gift store is upstairs from restaurant—it has 2 floors & something for everyone—in addition to gifts (for urself or others) it encompasses a giant boutique style clothing, shoes & accessories!! Wonderful evening! O h& check out the bar/lounge b4 or after dinner or both & dancefloor w/live band tops it all off. If you stay @ hotel definitely try “Copper Cafe & bakery”—the cakes are “signature” one of a kind & very delicious & impressive & can be purchased in dining room; lounge; copper cafe or bakery. TIP: if ur interested in taking home a whole cake they require advance purchase so check out very informative website that gives more detail than i just did! Cant wait to go back with our adult children this Christmas Eve & maybe stay there to check out “spa & pool with outside food & bar service (for hotel/spa guests only”)!

Love thr appetizers here and love to get several and make a meal of them. Service was friendly and timely.

Santos the owner does a fabulous job with food. The Pappardelle with boar ragu is a fav. Portions are smaller than usual and costly BUT the food flavors and attention to detail are wonderful. Ivan our waiter from Bulgaria is knowledgeable and an outstanding person to serve. The burrata crostini with caramelized fennel is a must....Il Cortile does not disappoint....Linda G from Paso Robles....

Madonna Inn is a classic restaurant, noted for amazing ambience, great food and great service! The special today was Beef Stroganoff which several members of our party enjoyed. There was enough food, that most of us took home doggie bags. Our waiter, Tomas, was especially good -- he was attentive, got all orders correct, and was timely in all his responses to our needs.

The menu was not overwhelming, but with interesting choices. The food was excellent with perfect portions. The ambiance and layout of the restaurant made for comfortable conversation within our group. Our waitress was great with knowledge of the menu, describing the food and how it is prepared and offering suggestions when we asked. For Atascadero and SLO County, this is a very nice addition to to that "Step Above" dining experience. Don't miss checking out the outdoor Rooftop Lounge with the view of the old City Hall and Sunken Gardens.
