    Inside
    Marc W.

    We went there on a Monday and it was still pretty packed. We got seated and served pretty quickly. my holybelly omelette was solid, with all kinds of meat inside and potatoes that were good, but not great. My wife got the garden omelette and she loved the option of fruit. All in all, it was a solid breakfast.

    Huevos Rancheros
    Nobbi L.

    We recently tried this place in the space of the former Persian restaurant for breakfast. The service was very sweet. The menu is varied. I had my go-to brekkie item, Huevos Rancheros. It was presented beautifully. The tortillas they use are hard. The components of the dish are layered one on top of the other. This makes it a little hard to cut and eat. The sauce appeared house made. It had a hint of smoke, probably from chipotles. It did lack some acid, but some salsa picosa helped. We will definitely return.

    If you love chilaquiles I recommend you taste them here. This is one of the closest sauces to the one my mom makes at home. I usually always get green but these were very tasty. A little spice and good flavor crispy tortilla chips and a nice side of avocado. My bf got the chorizo Benedict big portion and good flavor. My only complaint overall with both dishes are eggs not fully cooked when I order over medium I can't have the egg white still runny and this was the case with both our eggs. Maybe to some it's not a big deal but it is for us. The service was quick and everyone was friendly. We went early so it was pretty quiet when we arrived but it slowly started to get busy. I would come back here for the chilaquiles again for sure!

    Chili Verde Benedict

    Food was amazing! I had a chili verde Benedict and as you can see, the presentation is beautiful and the flavor is perfect. Totally unique. The service is attentive and kind. The ambiance is cozy. I would highly recommend this place. I am definitely coming again when I am in the area.

    Amazing food and service.! The small restaurant has good ambiance and the plants inside are very welcoming. We got a table as soon as we entered inside. Loved the place. The food was delicious.!!! Highly recommend.!!

    Tiramisu French toast

    Watch out Grover Beach! An absolutely delicious local Hispanic owned Brunch spot is here!! We got the sunrise crisp and the tiramisu French toast - 10/10 for both! The home fries with the chicken fried steak were perfectly seasoned and crispy The tiramisu butter was delicious and the bread was fluffy and soft On a side note.. the ambiance was welcoming with beautiful plants hanging from the walls and cute light fixtures It was pretty packed when we went around 1 pm - Expect a wait (about 30-40 min for us) but it's totally worth it! Only thing I can think of for improvement would be using real maple syrup to enhance the already delicious flavors I highly recommend HolyBelly for your next brunch!

    Very good place, huge plates, delicious taste, they serve pretty fast, service is very good also, i just want to mention that over the weekends they are very full and may not have the best details attention in all the orders so keep that in mind when you have an specific request, coffee is delicious and they do refills,also their prices were very good also, I like that.

    Holy Belly omelet! Delicious!

    Second time here and it was just as good as the first time. The food was fresh and delicious. The service is always fast. It was a little on the loud side today but it's to be expected when everyone is enjoying their time and food.

    Recently had the opportunity to have a wonderful breakfast at this quaint little café. Service was quick and very efficient and although there's a wait for your table it goes quickly. I have the eggs Benedict, which is very classic and deliciously made my friend had the garden omelette which as you can see was delightful. Can't wait to come back and try something new.

    Denver omelette
    Karen S.

    We had heard great things about this new restaurant in Grover Beach but frankly it was just average. Other reviewers have talked about beautiful presentation but there was nothing on ours. Out of four people one person thought his meal was excellent and would return. He had the chorizo eggs Benedict. I had an egg and biscuit sandwich which was tasty enough but no presentation and too much salty Canadian bacon. Just a sandwich on a white plate. The biscuit was toasted which I do not care for. One person had the tamale and it was again white food on a white plate. She ate half of it. One person had a Denver omelette and hash-browns. Just OK. To top it off the sound was obnoxious. The voices of the staff visiting at the front desk carried loudly. Plus they had a mixer going that drowned out all conversation in the restaurant for several minutes at a time. We mentioned it and they could have closed the door to the back but they did not.

    Tiramisu french toast

    Food was great. We ordered tiramisu french toast and holy belly omelette. But the service is meh. Staff wasn't pretty nice. Vibe was awkward. Ask for what we want to drink right at the second we just sat down, it was our first time here. We ordered food then in the middle of eating like 15mins in they gave us a check. They close at 2pm but we got our check at 1:10pm. Not sure if they treat all of the customers the same way or just us. Just not as happy as I was expected to come here to eat on my day off.

    Breakfast Burrito with chorizo
    Josiephine M.

    My partner came here on a late Saturday morning around 10am. There was no wait and the staff were attentive the moment we walked through the door. We were immediately sat and they took our drink order. My partner and I ordered the breakfast burrito with chorizo and all American breakfast with fruit instead of bacon. The food came in good timing. The food was delicious and I particularly liked how the burrito has bell peppers, it gave it a nice crunch and flavor. House potatoes were made yummy with red skin potatoes. It was a nice morning breakfast! Got slightly more busier within the next hour.

    We stopped by on the way home from Pismo Beach. We found HollyBelly which is a small restaurant in Grover City. I ordered the Chilaquiles with red sauce and over medium eggs. I usually rate a restaurant on how good their chilaquiles are and they passed my test. They were flavorful and with the right spicy kick to it. My wife had the La Royal which was similar to a Monte Christo sandwich. Everything was delicious and our server was excellent! We are glad we found this spot.

We shared the BBQ burger and were glad didn't each order a sandwich because this burger was plenty for two old ladies. We also ordered the tots and took some home. Very nice portions.

    Soooo...Brooks Burgers in Pismo Beach is apparently now their only venue (the location on Tank Farm…read moreroad in SLO changed a while back to "Petras"). We were sorry to see that location close down and extend our sympathies to Dallas (Owner) at having to close that location down (good help is so hard to find). Regardless, it won't keep us away from Brooks...cause the food is still "bangin". Yesterday's order was to go...we always ate "in" at the SLO location (just a "nicer ambiance") but always "take out" from Pismo (not thrilled with the fact that there is an added "take out fee" for this on your bill). Jaxon was our Order/Cashier associate on this occasion. He was personable in service and knowledgeable with regard to menu offerings. The restaurant wasn't as busy as I expected at 7PM but it took "a bit" to get the order out. Nevertheless..it was "on the money accurate" (exactly what we ordered/wanted) and that in my opinion...is worth waiting for. Our order : 2X Black and Blue Salads (4/5...yummy) and a Crispy Chicken Combo with Tater Tots (5/5...delicious). I had a "Combo Coupon" ($10 Combo instead of regular price), but still the bill was basically $43 dollars. Somewhat of a "value factor" because with a salad each, we were able to share the Crispy Chicken and were completely satisfied with our meal. Dallas (Owner) was already gone for the day, so we missed saying "hi". In this Yelper's opinion...on this "take-out" occasion because the food is still really "bussin", Brooks Burgers in Pismo Beach truly earned this 4 Star review.

The fries are large enough to split so you have room for the milkshakes . It would also be nice to see the ice cream sundae come back for those who don't want the milkshake. We had a person at the register that made us one anyway and charged for something else that was equal in price. (Thank you, you made my wives day for doing that) The only thing I would suggest is try doing something about the flies . When you sit at the front windows to enjoy the view they drive you crazy. One last thing would be to offer straws that are wrapped so they aren't touching the container that everyone touches. Overall I would say if you want a great burger and shake when you are close to AG definitely stop in here.

    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:)

I wish the patty was a little bigger though but still tasted good. SERVICE: The lady at the register was more than willing to help me with any questions about the menu or the food. Very friendly and welcoming. Quick service as well but I think I just went during a slow time so I got lucky. It seems like it could definitely get busy during peak times. AMBIANCE: It doesn't look that big from the outside but plenty of seating inside and a whole arcade too with plenty of different types of games. The inside is bright and clean. Not stuffy which is a plus for me. The games aren't too loud but perhaps when there's plenty of kids playing it could get loud. Overall, looks like a really good spot for family, friends or a quick lunch. The food is decent. Prices are tad bit high but that's not new anywhere else. Quick service and friendly staff. I personally had a good experience so I would recommend it to others.

I guess good and bad in that we knew they were freshly cooking each order, but it ended up taking over an hour for our food. I gotta say though, the food was quite good and large portions. I had the BBQ chicken sandwich with side salad. It's apparently a new item. It was quite good both the chicken and the salad. My kid had the chicken and shrimp basket. Good ol fashioned fried foods. My wife and other kid had the pesto chicken pasta and the shrimp Alfredo pasta. Also quite yum. And too large for either of them were able to finish. So leftovers for dinner!

I quickly realized that our food probably sat on the ready counter for a significant length isn't time. I ordered biscuits and gravy with bacon and two eggs over easy. The biscuits were ok at best, Gravy lacked flavor and my eggs were as cold as the weather outside. My GF ordered a sandwich, that did not come with fries. That was discovered once the order arrived. We were told they're playing with the menu. ‍, sounded weird but ok. She also god a side of mozzarella sticks. Those two were cold. Like they took a string cheese and rolled it in breading and heated in the microwave for about 15 seconds. So disappointing. I hope they figure out their staffing issues and lock in the menu. Seems like a decent spot but I'll find another breakfast place. Don't waste your money, plus I heard the tips are automatically added to the bill. I didn't look that closely because there was only 3 of us eating and I'm not used to auto tipping unless you have a large party. If they do auto tipping, my waitress hit well more than deserved because I tipped on my own as well. The table we were sat, was out of little jam packets. Seems like a trivial thing to bring up but details matter. What else are they skipping...? Do they even wipe down a table when it's reset first the next guests? McDonalds is down the street. At least their food is hot!
