    The food is average. The service is really great. I love the self-serve salsa bar with chips that is a plus not seen at many restaurants anymore.

    Ordered a few tacos and a veggie burrito online. We were wondering why it took so long for our food to arrive...now we know. The driver was that incompetent to just leave our food off at the mailbox and not drop it off on our front porch??? So at 9:00 pm we are absolutely starving and too exhausted to find anything to make...Not gonna order anything from them ever again.

    Casual spot for Mexican food with both indoor/outdoor seating and a salsa bar! My friend and I were looking for a quick and filling dinner spot after spending the day nearby at Morro Bay, and La Parrilla was perfect! We came by Friday evening around 7 pm and it wasn't too crowded. They offer all the standard Mexican dishes, from burritos to tacos to tortas, etc. I got a shrimp burrito for $13.95, and my friend got a grilled chicken super burrito for $13.95. While we waited for our burritos, we helped ourselves to the complimentary chips and salsa from the salsa bar. We didn't have to wait long though, since our food came out pretty quickly. My burrito was super solid. I really appreciate that they packed it full of delicious buttery shrimp. My friend's burrito was okay... his grilled chicken was honestly pretty bland. I tried a couple bites and like my shrimp burrito more. Also, the tortillas they use here are MASSIVE. We saw them making them through the kitchen window, and they were some of the largest tortillas I've ever seen. Because of this, there was a lot of extra folded tortilla in my burrito. I would recommend this spot to anyone looking for a good Mexican meal in Atascadero!

    Not from the Atascadero area but today i was impressed and assisted with genuine service from Eva and Marcos. Delicious and fresh burrito that definitely did not disappoint. Wouldn't hesitate to come back especially with how home like of a feel it is in here

    Gosh I love this place - one of my favorite authentic Mexican restaurants in North county. They also have a location in Arroyo Grande! We have been here quite a few times and it never disappoints. Their chips and salsa are amazing, especially the green salsa. The chips are self serve and are always warm and crispy. We usually order the Burria tacos which are to die for. Their quesadillas are also absolutely delicious. My husband just recently got the shrimp fajitas and loved them as well. Love this place and will continue to come back again and again for amazing Mexican food!

    Honest Mexican food. You order the food at the counter and they will bring it to the table. The young guy at the counter was very personable. Since this is my first time here , he was patient enough to explain me the menu. He also adjusted a few things to accommodate my vegan diet. He also suggested a few things to make it a more gratifying meal. The salsa bar had many options. The freshly made salsas were very distinct in taste and flavorsome. Prices are moderate. I also saw that this place was full of people, which is why we decided to give it a try and we were not disappointed This is exactly the hospitality you would expect in a little beach town. After eating our lunch here we felt our holiday has officially begun

    Nothing but the best at La Parilla. It is always packed with happy customers, and food makes it way to you very quickly. Cutstomer service, atmosphere, food, drinks. You name it. Top tier and amazing

    Soupy meat

    I had a great meal at La Parrilla in Arroyo Grande so when I noticed that another location is Atascadero I detoured to go for lunch. I was disappointed in the Atascadero location. I order the samething, mullita de barbacoa and it wasn't as good. The meat didn't taste fresh and the inside of the tortillas was soupy wet. The broth that came with the meal was the best thing I had. It had a nice flavor with fresh cilantro. As far as chips and salsa. There were just a few chips in the self serve (they needed to restock this and some other items in the salsa bar that were basically empty). I got medium red salsa. One bite and I threw out the salsa and chips. There was something wrong with the salsa. Had a terrible taste. I wish I noticed it also smelled off before tasting it. I have never had salsa that tasted so bad. The dining area was a bit dingy. I had planned to come here a few times over the next few days but after trying it I will not return to this location.

    Burrito Poly - Delicious
    Ron B.

    Came here several times, consistent and delicious. Friendly and fast service. Self serve chips and salsa bar. Today my wife and I split the Burrito Poly. It was delicious and quite sizable. Plenty of space inside and available seating outside as well. It's a reliable goto place for me.

Despite coming in late, the staff was welcoming and attentive. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the sausage and broccolini gemelli was well executed. My only criticism is the use of burrata on the dish. Because it was placed directly on top of the hot pasta, it essentially cooked the burrata, which kind of misses the point of serving burrata in the first place. Rather than adding richness or contrast, it muted the flavors of the sausage and broccolini and made the dish taste a bit bland. I think a stronger cheese that holds up better to heat, such as Pecorino Romano, would have complemented the pasta much better. That said, the service was excellent and the pasta itself was cooked perfectly. Overall, a very good experience and I'd happily return.

Maybe it is because we are watching "Yellowstone" on TV, but I was craving the flavor of the Old West, which can still be found in many places around SLO. We returned to Pig Iron Restaurant in Templeton, where we had dined about three years ago when they very first opened up! it was kind of bare and spacious our first time there. It was great to see how they have added to the space and now have room for multiple functions! There's a huge outdoor dining patio with a coffee pick up bar. There's a an indoor dining area where you order your food at a counter. There's also the Club Car Bar with its own separate room. I remembered that Pig Iron sando was good. My husband ordered the Pig Iron. I went for two smoked chicken, Cowboy Tacos, and our friend got a burger. We topped it all off with onion rings. It's the kind of place that you order at a counter in the Merchandise room, then take a buzzer to your table. We commandeered a large booth in the fairly small dining room. It has maybe eight or 10 tables. There is are a couple lounge chairs by the fireplace, which is very cozy on a cool day. By the time our food was ready, the dining room was full. That Pig Iron pulled pork sando is worth the trip! The meat is super tender, and the sauce is piquant and not too spicy. Topped with cole slaw, it is a perfect lunchtime meal. Burger was also nicely done kind of a smashed burger. The tacos were aptly named Cowboy Tacos, as I felt that they were gringo tacos. They were bland, since they didn't have sauce on them and the chicken was in tiny chunks and not shredded. The onion rings were crispy and fun to dunk in the Ranch dressing. We hunkered down cowboy style and enjoyed our meal, talking about about outer space and the moon trip while enjoying our food in the cozy ambience of an evocative historic setting!
