Very welcoming spot with a casual beach vibe. The menu is…read moreamazing. It was really hard to choose. We had chilaquiles and the hang town fry. 5 stars on both. The black beans and red sauce were delicious with the right amount of spice. The chips held their crunch till the end. The oysters were creamy and fried perfectly. The potatoes were the best! The service was attentive and warm. The lunch menu looked amazing, too, so we'll be back soon.

Have you ever gone to the Pig and Pancake and ordered a $16 plate of slop, wolfed it down, and then…read moresaid, "Oh God, what have I done?" Yeah, me too. That's why I've decided to stop hurting myself and go to the Chalkboard Cafe instead. The difference in quality of ingredients and cooking is apparent in the first bite. It really is a bit jarring. This restaurant makes everything from scratch, and I mean everything. Yesterday my son and I got two burgers and our potato salad and coleslaw sides were like sides my mother would make in her kitchen, not globs of shelf stable Reser's food-paste that were made two states over a month ago and sprayed with mortuary chemicals to stop their decay. The food at the Chalkboard is real food, not fake food, which brings me to my next point, dietary restrictions. If I had any dietary restrictions whatsoever, gluten sensitivity in particular, this would be where I would go for breakfast or lunch in Seaside. Chalkboard has gluten free biscuits and gravy available, delicious GF naan bread made by hand, and gluten free versions of popular bakery goods made in their small kitchen from scratch. Even if you don't have restrictions you can be assured that your meal will have 80% less total ingredients just based on the restaurant's ethics alone. They aren't taking shortcuts, they aren't bringing junk into the building in the first place, so junk never ends up on your plate. The service is stellar, the ambiance is charming and clean. You're out of excuses. You were wondering where you should go to eat, and now you know. Go to the restaurant where the locals take their own families - the Chalkboard Cafe.

This place needs ventilation very badly. You will walk out of there smelling like the smoke from a…read morebusy kitchen. The soda bagel thing is over rated. I liked the airy texture. But I didn't care too much for the flavor. Genuinely not good. And the cream cheese it came with, zero flavor, which was easily remedied by adding my own salt. The ambience and decor was quaintly charming, at first. But the more I looked the more understood that everything was creepy. Like witchcraft creepy.

The food was good, and the prices are reasonable. The atmosphere could do a little improving. I'd go with a more 1950s Grandma look. The owner works very hard to try to make you happy. And in the winter, it's open when most places are closed. Would I go back midweek? Honestly, I don't know. There are many better places in the area.

With that being said, this place is still a decent spot for breakfast! Service was always busy so that wasn't a good start as we were jockeying for attention as we were a full house that day and every one was needing something. So not too prompt or attentive to us (this effects tips from someone like me as I'm always tip above the Industry standard (was a chef for 10yrs). Now the ambience of this place was terrible, not to mention they placed us right next to kitchen dish area which was super busy and noisy.
