    We initially came for the Farmer's Market, and noticed outside bbq smokers. The smell of grilled meats led my hubby and I here. Greeted by enthusiastic bbq employees, we made the plunge and ordered. What. A. Surprise. Everything was well made and cooked. I would definitely put this pace on my repeat places whenever I'm in the area.

    See this sign and you know your there!

    During our road trip we noticed a small outside BBQ joint outside the farmers market in Cambria. The Food was amazing and prices are fair for the quality. I would stop back here on our way out!

    This is a central California chain, with a few sister locations nearby, and another one in Fresno…read more(Doghouse Grill-right across the street from CSU Fresno). I have frequented both the Cambria and Fresno locations, partially due to the consistently decent service and mostly due to the quality and quick food. It doesn't matter if you show up right when they open, or if you arrive when there's a line out the door waiting to place orders, service is always much quicker than you'd expect. Food is decent--whether you get a salad (note-the side or small salad is huge--it fills a full to-go container), fish and chips, a sandwich or burger. Substitutions are usually not an issue, and ranch/bbq sauces are available at no extra charge. I'm generally impressed with how absolutely fresh the lettuce and veggies are for the salads. I really have grown used to spending $10 or more for a much smaller salad at other locations and have grown accustomed to picking out wilted/rotted veggies and lettuce. Not here-everything is cold, crisp and fresh. Meat is seasoned well-- and the fries are plentiful. There is usually plenty of seating, whether inside or on the patio. Parking can be rough along Main Street, but if you're patient, you can usually find something fairly close. It does help that the grill is towards the end of the street. Rest rooms are limited and often running low on supplies. It can be quite a wait during busy times. In all, this is a great place for quick and decent food. It is consistently enjoyable for the whole family. We'll definitely be back whenever we visit.

    Excellent Cobb salad, huge portions, yummy onion rings…read more.. All good things-recommended for a quick bite or watch a soccer match.

    If you are thinking of going here to lunch, you should absolutely do it! Everything we ordered was…read moreso good; the flavor profiles were unique and done so well. We ordered the beef tenderloin tips, signature chicken pot pie, ollalieberry burger, and braised beef stroganoff. We especially enjoyed the beef tenderloin tips and the burger. The burger patty had a mild gamey flavor which I think is due to the cow being grass-fed (correct me if I'm wrong). Staff were also very friendly. The owner himself came out to talk to us. The restaurant is located in a quaint, picturesque town. We enjoyed walking around to see the other shops afterward. The parking lot was small but we were able to find parking. We got there on a Monday around 2PM and waited about 5-10 minutes to be seated.

    Famous restaurant in Cambria. Went to try it and waited for 30 minutes. Friday and kinda busy…read more Located on the Main Street of downtown Cambria. Seated on the second floor and Jordan and other guy forgot his name was Amazing. We were group of 8 and served well. We ordered Chicken pot pies Toasted veggie panini with clam chowder soup, fish and chips, seared ahi tuna, sweet potatoes fries . Everything was delicious. The best part was their ollieberry pie warmed with vanilla ice cream so yummy. First floor has bakery and gift shop For sure we will back once in Cambria.

    WOW. What a great place. No reservations but the hostess was great. Gave us the 'beeper' and came…read moreoutside to check if everyone's was working. We were seated outside under great heating. Water and warm bread were brought by an enthusiastic server. Our wine came less than five minutes later. Seafood pasta was great, packed with everything. We also ordered pork taco trio. Super. We had a great experience here.

    I don't like giving negative feedback, in fact this may be my only bad review written to date -…read more but I feel customer service is important & had been genuinely excited to try the food here. Seeing that there was a Patio and that everywhere I had been up to that point, including our hotel, had allowed dogs, I walked over with my tiny pup in his little carry bag. When we arrived, I saw that the patio was enclosed, so I realized I might have to take my pup back to the hotel, but then saw an open air spot with tables and chairs in the parking lot. I would have been willing to sit there and order, so my companion went to ask if that was possible, but was given a very quick and rude "we're not pet friendly", which I was an attitude I was already catching on to as I walked closer and saw unnecessarily large "no pets" signs. I was offended, not for the policy, but because I was already starting to see that was the case & it would have been so easy just to say it gently or nicely & acknowledge that our inquiry was no longer about coming into the restaurant or patio at all. That response made the difference between us taking the doggo back to the hotel room to return for dinner or writing a negative review apparently, because it felt condescending and no food experience is worth feeling unwelcome - especially when every place surrounding the area was completely pet friendly. They are located on a beach, but that day with not-so-relaxed vibes when a simple redirect would have been perfectly fine. I'm a pet person, and it's ok if that's not something you accommodate, I completely understand (especially, sadly, because some pet owners are not responsible, and their pets act like animals and not necessarily family members) - but there's no excuse for being rude when your entire job is service. You're in a beach spot where people come to relax with the people (or animal companions) they love most, no need to have an unfortunate attitude. :( Sorry restaurant/ chef/ other staff, I really would have liked to try the food. P.S. Dog-friendly places can happily have all my money, cheers to patio dining in (most of) California.

    Back in 2020, my wife and I tried to eat here, but fate (and COVID) had other plans…read more Our drinks had just been served, our food hadn't arrived yet, and suddenly local law enforcement walked in and announced everything was shutting down due to COVID. We were politely asked to leave. No fault of the restaurant whatsoever--it was just one of those surreal moments that perfectly captured the beginning of that crazy chapter in history. Fast forward six years... We randomly picked this place for dinner and, as soon as we walked in, we both looked at each other and said, "Wait... haven't we been here before?" Then it hit us. This was that restaurant. Apparently, we had unfinished business. This time, the universe finally let us eat. I ordered the Ortega burger with sweet potato fries, my wife had the patty melt with onion rings, and we took an order of linguini home for later. Every single bite was fantastic. The food was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely worth the six-year wait. The service was just as impressive. Karina was our waitress, and she was attentive, friendly, charming, and made us feel genuinely welcome. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend this place. And if you decide to eat here, there's a very good chance you'll get your food much sooner than we did... only six years ahead of schedule.

    Came here for dinner during our stay in Cambria and was very happy with our meal! This restaurant…read moreserves American cuisine including soups and sandwiches. We had the clam chowder and fish & chips. Clam chowder was a nice thick consistency; fish & chips were delicious but portion was a bit small: you get 3 pieces of fish; 4 would have been better. Service was friendly and the vibe is casual. Would come again!

In fact is was so warm that my wife had to go outside to cool off a couple of times. Service was stellar. From the server, (Ramona) to the other staff. They took very good care of us. Kept our waters full and checked on us several times during our visit. Let's get down to it. The moment that counts. We ordered the stuffed mushrooms as an appetizer. They were FANTASTIC. They were stuffed with a feta type cheese and were absolutely delish! My main dish wass the Filet Mignon. I ordered it medium. It came with veggies and mashed potatoes. When the steak showed up it looked good and I cut into the steak. It was done to perfection. It had some kind of JD whiskey sauce on it. I took a bite and it was awesome. SO much flavor. I was in heaven. It was like eating candy. I have always considered The Range in Santa Margarita the best but THIS, yeah this was going to be hard to beat! The Sows Ear was now top dog! The mashed potatoes were epic as well. Perfectly cooked and very creamy. The veggies, (broccoli, squash, and carrots), were great as well. Not a huge squash fan but they did not over do the squash and it was just full of flavor. This REALLY went well when it came to the food. The portions were spot on. Lastly we come to the dessert. We had the Mud Pie. Yep, it was a HUGE piece for less than $10.00. Great value and man.........., was it good. Enough for 2 people. It really creates that intimate setting when you can share with your significant other and it be more then enough. This place would have gotten 5 stars had the interior temp been comfortable. 4.5 stars! The bill for the two of us, no alcohol, was right at $140.00. with tip were out the door at approx. $170.00. Thanks to the staff for making this experience great! Ramona, Katie, and the guy walking around that made sure we were good! They made a great team! I would totally recommend the Sow's Ear in Cambria. This place is everything you would expect and you will not be disappointed. Don't miss out on this place! Worth every penny. That is all! Have a great day!
