    Review for the Bakery only~ This is my favorite Mexican Bakery in Castroville. They make the BEST apple filled bear claws here! Lots of apple chunks and excellent pastry with plenty of icing and almonds on top. I don't even miss the almond paste. You have to get here early for these as they sell out fast. The pineapple empanada is also good with plenty of filling and a cookie like crust with chunks of pineapple inside. I also love their big corn bread/muffin/cupcakes with raspberry filling. They're super moist like cornbread cake. Really good! The ladies are always nice. Ring the bell by the register for service because they're always in the back.

    If you enjoy good food like I do you will see past the strip mall, dishelved little bakery atmosphere... it took me a few minutes of shouting hello and hola before a lady who was washing the dishes in the far back came out but I'm so glad she did. I had heard from a local that 2 different places in Castroville sell the best burritos... I only remember that one started with an "F' so I guessed here and I'm guessing I was correct. Ping-Pong. Killer chicken and asada burritos. I enjoyed them at home... perfect blend of meat, beans, rice and salsa. I did add some crema and hot sauce from my own personal fridge but either way so good. I didn't even warm them up they looked so good. I got the smaller size but next time I know to go "grande" as I could probably finish one very quickly in a sitting considering how good they are!

    Fresh and yummy

    Delicious food and pastries. Got a few types of tamales and loved them and the guava pastry was out of this world

    Came here memorial day weekend with my mom for a good lunch after a wonderful memorial Day service…read moreup at the veterans cemetery -my dad loved to come here so we made sure to get our fish and chips and enjoyed every bite. I had the cod my mom had the halibut both amazing! They really stepped their game up on the coleslaw now it's something so weird but it's a staple with fish and chips. Their coleslaw used to be drying and nasty. It was pretty good this time and the french fries were cooked to perfection. The restaurant is busy fast pace. They definitely have the turn and burn set in stone, but everything was clean. The food came out pretty quick so again we were happy The only reason I didn't give five stars is because the pricing really went up for two platters of fish and chips and one appetizer and two iced teas it was 100 bucks- pretty steep if you ask me but I get it. The whole world is expensive right now so I can't be mad, especially when the food was that good Honestly, I would pay it 100 times over again to know that my mom is happy so it's all good

    As a local, I've been a patron of Phil's for many years. I miss the previous location in Moss…read moreLanding, with its rustic charm and ambiance. But, the Monterey Bay Aquarium research lab needed the space and owned the property. The food and recipes, particularly the Red Clam Chowder seem different to me. It now is a mushy, flour and corn starch laden mush of a soup, not as I remembered. For the prices charged, the product should be unparalleled and instead, is meh.
