   Breakfast was amazing!! The best Eggs Benedict I’ve had! Service was outstanding and aside from a loud-talker sitting near us the ambience was fantastic as well. Will go back again!!

   Have always enjoyed visiting or staying there- getting a tad bit expensive lately won’t be going as often or ever staying again.

   It was a nice environment. We sat next to the fireplace by the window. The service staff were friendly and did a great job anticipating our needs. I’m we had the fish tacos and the burger, both were delicious. We had cream brûlée for dessert. It was a very small portion but yummy.

   We were early diners and therefore were seated at a table with an ocean view. Our waiter took our drink and food orders quickly however the delivery of same was a bit uneven. The Osso Buco was very tender and the mashed potatoes and mushrooms tasty. The wife had cioppino that featured two jumbo shrimp and a scattering of shellfish and firm fish, salmon I believe. The seafoods were good but I feel the broth was lacking. They use soyrizo which I found odd, probably to kick up the flavor. The ambiance was great, the views wonderful.

    I requested and indoor table by a window overlooking the ocean for my wife’s birthday. When we got there we were taken to a table by a fireplace even though the table by the window was available. We moved. My Filet was one of the worst I’ve ever had. A very poor quality piece of beef. And I asked for medium and it came extremely rare. Did not send back because the quality was just poor. My wife’s salmon came dry. Sent it back. Next piece not as dry but still overcooked. Shocked that their chefs do not know how to properly cook salmon. And I notified the restaurant we were celebrating my wife’s birthday. No recognition at all. The restaurant did not charge me for my entree and only charged 50% for my wife’s salmon entree so there’s that. On the positive side my wife’s Tataki (Ahi) appetizer was out of this world. We just wish our overall experience was better.

    We did not get water or service for a very long time. Waitress kept forgetting to come back to the table. Saw her forget others as well. She only had two tables outside so not sure if her tables were mainly outside and that is why. Another waitress attended to the other outdoor tables and was much more attentive.

    Elegant and cozy indoor seating with view of the ocean. The service was great. The food was not up to same standards though. The filet mignon was over-cooked (medium-well had no pink inside), but was still good. The deserts aren’t great. I loved the fruit cobbler desert they used to have but is no longer available.

    We had a wonderful time with friends at Marisol. Crosby was our server and he couldn't have been more attentive. My steak was well done and I had asked for it to be medium well. He was very quick to notice the problem, took it away and brought me a perfectly cooked entree - no questions, no problem. We enjoyed drinks in the bar first and our server (beautiful young lady, but I'm so sorry I can't remember her name!) was friendly, helpful and very attentive as well. All in all - it was a wonderful evening out - thank you!

    Graduation Breakfast/Brunch for 6 people this morning and it was great. The service by Miranda was exceptional (patient, helped us choose menu items, and she made sure all was well at our able several times). The six different meals we ordered were enjoyed by each person. Pancakes, Eggs, Steak, Vegetarian Options...all were very good. Good portion sizes, reasonably priced for what you receive, and all of us were served our breakfast at once - nice touch. Miranda also added a special 'congrats grad' dessert which was very nice. Shout out to the Manager who took our reservation too. He was accommodating, confirmed the reservation, and went out of his way to make sure we were taken care of. With all that is happening in the restaurant industry at this moment, this was a great surprise and shall I say restores my faith in eating out again. Highly recommend!

    Staff was mostly friendly except our waiter had a poor mood/attitude. She dropped us after a couple rounds and other waiters came by who were much nicer. Not sure what was going on but part of the job is to be nice to your customer even if you don’t like them. No one was rude just very needy at most but hey that’s the business. And they marked my reservation As missed for open table even tho I attended.

    My husbands drink had something floating at the bottom of his glass, it was sent back to the bar. When the drink returned it still had something small at the bottom. We both ordered filet mignon steaks and we specifically asked for medium. Both steaks we cooked well done. This was not a good way to spend our wedding anniversary.

    We went for Mothers Day. I always love Marisols but I will never go for a holiday again. They were out of items on the prefixed menu, our service took so long (30 minutes to get water). It was a very unfortunate experience.

    We went to Marisol for Mothers Day 2022. Our reservation was at 12:15pm but we got there at 11:45 am and they were able to seat us early which was nice. The restaurant was pretty busy but it was not too loud, the view was great. We sat inside but next time would probably sit outdoors. The server was friendly and attentive but the service was very slow. We anticipated this due to it being Mother’s Day so it wasn’t a big deal but my kids were definitely getting antsy. Food was tasty, good portions. Overall we had a good time despite the wait, we would definitely return.

    The setting at Marisol is very nice, the interior, the view, lovely. The service was good. We had Mother's Day brunch there and although we enjoyed the experience, the food was disappointing. My Benedict Bites were probably good when they were made, but they had sat for a while before they were served to me. They were cold. I was excited to try the halibut, as is is perhaps my favorite fish, but it was overcooked! It was dry. Again, I think the dish had sat too long under the warmers, but I'm just guessing. My mom's crab cakes were light on crab meat, but were OK. The desserts were pretty uninsipiring. For $200 for two people, I want to be wowed. The menu had lofty goals, but the execution was poor.

    Very disappointing. We arrived when you opened for 8:00am reservation for Sunday brunch 5/8/22. We left at 8:47am after still no food. If you’re going to charge a premium for a $65.00 per person prix fixe menu you should provide a premium service. It’s not acceptable to be your first guest when you open but make us wait on a chilly shaded patio for 45 minutes. The deal breaker is when you served food to a table that arrived AFTER us. Lots of good restaurants in Pismo. Never returning to Marisol.

    I have been very happy with this restaurant in the past. It was our anniversary which I stated as a special occasion. It was never acknowledged by hostess or waiter. We were seated at a table which was very close to the table next to us and there was a family of 4,with 2 young children. They talked very loud and I felt like we were seated at the same table. We will try again in the future, we are locals.

    Really enjoyed it here! We started out with the calamari and cheeseboard. Both good. Presentation on the cheeseboard was nice as well. My husband ordered the surf and turf and I ordered the pork osso bucco. My pork was nice and tender and my husbands steak was cooked perfectly. I love the way the restaurant looks inside. The decor and view is beautiful.

    We went to Marisol for Easter Brunch, and the quality of the items on their special holiday menu was lacking in quality. The shrimp cocktail was average, the Ahi tuna app was lacking in flavor. The Montecristo’s sandwich was not a Montecristo…it was a ham sandwich on cinnamon bread. While the meal was not bad, it was just not very special, especial for an Easter Brunch. Then, when compared to the price per person we paid, was just not worth it.
