    Seared ahi
    Adam L.

    The bar is usually hopping when we've been here, with friends getting together at happy hour and enjoying live music. The menu has a range of options from casual to more fancy. Shrimp and chips was a good casual choice for me. The ahi tuna salad was also a hit, and chicken medallions with mushroom sauce was also well received. Service and ambiance were good, but the live music can be a bit loud if you're there early.

    Monochrome meal
    Andy R.

    My major complaint was serving the meal on a white plate. The mashed potatoes and gravy was white, the cole slaw was mainly white. The only thing with any color was the fried chicken. For $20 for members ($25 for non members) you got everything you see in the photo. Unfortunately, the food was boring. It wasn't worth $20. Also, our server was more interested in the football game being shown on tv.

    STEAK & SCAMPI  7 oz aged ribeye & white shrimp
    Rich C.

    Always perfect at Adelina's. The service and their timing was spot on! Wonderful team. Great people watching. STEAK & SCAMPI 7 oz aged ribeye, white shrimp, poached garlic butter, white wine, fresh lemon juice, Italian parsley and roasted garlic mashed potatoes (French fries, baked potato, or rice pilaf also available). Paired with a big bold Cabernet.

    Steak and scampi with loaded baked potato. The potato where am I going?

    Wish I had gone with my gut and existing help review and skipped this place. This is a golf course restaurant and being out of the area we didn't t realize that. Decided to give it a go but it was just ok. Seating was even odd with my back to huge windows and facing bar station and trash can. Retirement community vibe which was fine but wished the food was better. Clams and scampi was bland. I would suggest they try using garlic at the very least. Serviced was polite and followed the lead on the pace of dining we wanted.

A couple of the drinks didn't quite hit, but the "Sunset and Chill" was a group favorite. The wedge salad isn't traditional, but it's delicious and a nice twist on the classic. The lasagna was a standout -- rich, decadent, and really satisfying. The portion looks small, but don't be fooled. Service was great throughout. They gave us semi-private seating, which we really appreciated, and the outdoor setup added a fresh, airy feel while still keeping things cozy for our group. For dessert, the toasted marshmallow torte was the clear table favorite -- definitely the one to try. The lemon tart was good too, but if you're choosing one, go marshmallow. A great way to wrap up the weekend.

All dishes were given with care but not necessarily to overly impress, meaning that the portion size was generous rather than dainty. The experience of the place was considerably more sophisticated than I recall from the Central Coast of almost 20 years ago when I lived in the area. (Granted, time has passed, but still refreshing to see.) Staff also seemed happy to be there and engaging with diners, more than merely doing their jobs. Thank you Ember for raising the bar and impressing this out of town guest!

The price is high but the food looked good. Small portions, but it is a fancy restaurant so that's expected. If you're a bougie seafood loving person, then this is the place to go.

You walk in expecting a good time and most of the time, that's exactly what you get. Which is why this one stings a little. Mother's Day brunch. Prix fixe. Three courses. The kind of setup that should feel special but sometimes ends up feeling like a well-dressed assembly line. We went all in. Party of four, one of everything to start. The heirloom tomato and mozzarella bruschetta was fine. Fresh enough, pleasant enough. But it didn't feel like a celebration. It felt like something you've had before, somewhere else, done the same way. Safe. The ceviche tostadas were the high point early on. Bright, clean, refreshing. Exactly what you expect sitting on the Central Coast with the ocean a few steps away. No complaints there. The Cali deviled eggs were smooth, almost too easy to eat. Avocado mousse, a little jalapeño kick. Thoughtful, balanced. A small win. Then the fried pork belly tacos show up, and on paper, this is the one. This is the dish you circle before you even get there. But the promise doesn't quite land. The pickled onions, carrots, cabbage, all the things that are supposed to cut through that richness, barely show up. You're left wanting more contrast, more intention. Then the mains. My mom gets the shrimp and lobster risotto and suddenly things feel right again. Rich, comforting, the kind of dish that keeps you going back for another bite even when you're full. She loved it, and that matters. My dad goes with the stuffed baked eggplant and is completely happy. No notes, no complaints. Just quietly enjoying his plate, which honestly says a lot. I order the seared salmon, trying to be responsible, maybe even a little healthy. And it shows. Too much. It's clean, sure. But it's also forgettable. Somewhere along the way, someone decided that healthy means dialing everything back. It doesn't have to. It shouldn't. My fiancée gets the braised short rib, and this is where the kitchen reminds you what it can do. Tender meat, crispy potato, creamy polenta. Thought-out, satisfying, the kind of plate that feels finished. Dessert rolls in, and by now you're hoping for a strong close. Chocolate avocado mousse. Interesting idea, lands somewhere in the middle. Then, a huge slice of strawberry cheesecake that does exactly what it's supposed to do. Sweet, familiar, comforting. No risks, no regrets. And that's kind of the story of the whole meal. Nothing terrible. Plenty that's enjoyable. But for a place you trust, on a day that's supposed to feel a little more special, it never quite gets there. You leave full. You leave fine. But for the first time in a while, you also leave thinking you might have been happier somewhere else. And that's not something you expect to feel walking out of Sea Venture

    Wow, what an excellent local brewery! Looking for some…read moreevening bite after a late lunch and this place was nearby where we were staying, so gave it a walk to try it. Seemed to close early, 8pm, for a brewery, but I guess it's a quieter area. Arrived past 7, hoping we can still get food and we were still good for food and beer! Ms. Kristie was so efficient and friendly and awesome, hustling back and forth from reception to seating and dropping by to check on all the patrons. Like a one woman show! I went for the Peanut butter falcon since I like a good brown beer. The peanut butter was initially nice, but it kinda became tiring as the sips went along, since peanut butter seemed a bit much over the beer. Got wife the German Pilsner and that was excellent! Smooth with a hint of malty sweetness too! I am thinking maybe the Lawn Order blonde ale is probably going to be great as well, but too full from late lunch to consume more than one. For food, went with the birria melt and the salmon salad. Birria melt had some awesome authentic flavors to it! Kid devoured it with the consomme. I enjoyed a quarter of it, but too full, so worked out perfect since kid didn't want to share more either, lol. Salmon salad was perfect! Pan seared on both side for that wonderful crust yet tender goodness. Salad dressing with cherry and almond slices made this salad so enjoyable while staying lighter. Was not expecting such salmon from a brewery, excellent food here! Locals seem to love this place too until closing time I guess, since a group that seemed to be bar hopping arrived exceited when we got there too:)
