    Restaurant, staff and food were great! The adult patrons drunk, standing in front of my 7 year old trying to watch the fireworks, not so great.

    Thoroughly enjoyed our meal - roasted beet salad, ahi tuna, chargrilled oysters, sablefish, ice cream, French press coffee! Everything was amazing. Jules our server was knowledgeable and excellent in all respects! We have been here many times and every meal has been terrific!

    Though the servers were very friendly, it seemed like they wandered around the restaurant in circles. They were probably looking at tables to know when to move on to the next dish, but this made our wait time seem like forever. Nice atmosphere overlooking the coast. Pork chop was delicious. Octopus appetizer was average and not hot. Duck was ok. They were kind enough to comp our dessert. If you want a beautiful dessert, this is the place to go. Peanut butter dessert was DELICIOUS! Quicker service and hotter dishes would make this place AMAZING!

    This place was really cute, service was high level and the food was delicious. Definitely get the tuna tataki appetizer, it was phenomenal. Both dishes were great too, maybe a touch heavy on the sauce to where it made it really too rich, but overall this place is worth a visit. A gem in Pismo for sure.

    Joseph was a fabulous server and the food was scrumptious. The pork chop was over the top, the scallops done perfectly and the salmon was very flavorful. Enjoyed by all. Did not disappoint.

    Our service was great and the food was great. The portions were very small. The sea bass was only about 2.5 ounces. The 3 mussels were about 1/2 teaspoon. We were very disappointed in the value of our dinner.
