Wow. Life has kept me away from Pismo for a while. Came in today excited for something I've enjoyed…read moreall my life. Sadly, nowhere near expectations. Two orders of fish and chips. Small and medium. Small without batter. Plates come out, and the first thought is "Wow. Those are small pieces. And hardly any fries." Started eating. Either the fish was frozen to the point of freezer burn, or they were just old and poor quality. This place used to have flaky, fresh tasting fish (for being fried). This was dense, rubbery, and impossible to get through. Lots of it had grey color. Ate what we could. About two pieces total. All the old faces were gone. Service seemed fine, lots of younger servers standing around talking. They weren't busy for lunch. Had 2x the necessary staff for what we saw. It's sad. I left actually sad for what used to be my favorite fish and chips in the world. I honestly don't know if I'll walk in those doors again.

My wife and I had a great lunch today. The Host and Waiter were friendly and attentive. They both…read morecame over at some point to ask how everything was. I told them it was "Delicious!" I heard the other Waiters as they served the clients. They were very friendly, professional and served the customers with a smile. The location is on a busy street so as you dine and you look out the window you get to see all the people driving and walking by. It's great if you love to people watch. Some of the plates coming out looked AMAZING. We had the Crab Dip, House Salad, Crab Louis Salad and Clam Chowder. Everything was delicious and satisfying. We even took home a slice of Key Lime Pie. We'll be going back again.

Cute and casual restaurant displaying many lovely beach murals and specializing in seafood. DJ was our fantastic server today. He was Friendly & attentive. We ordered 2 buckets with crab & shrimp. Our order came out steamy & tasty very quickly. The buckets include a choice of crab, shrimp, mussels & clams. It includes corn, potatoes, sausage & your seafood choices. They have many seafood options besides the buckets. DJ was so accommodating throughout our meal. We dined early around 5pm, but if you go during peak hours, lunch or dinner you may have a wait. They do not take reservations. They are moderately priced and portions are good. For a fun beach y experience definitely drop in for a meal.

We grabbed a cocktail at the bar while we waited for our table and we both agreed the cocktails were yummy. I got their twist on a Paloma and she got their twist on a margarita. It wasn't long before we were guided to our table by the friendly hosts. Jason was our waiter and he was attentive, professional, and over all knowledgeable on the menu. He made a few suggestions on the food and wines and it wasn't long before we placed our order. They will bring you bread and butter, but beware the butter is sweetened. We ordered Rockefeller Oysters as an appetizer. We split the surf and turf special and OMG it was amazing. Splitting the meal was perfect because the steak is about 10-12 oz and the crab stuffed prawns are HUGE as well. It came with vegetables and purée radish. Between the great cocktails, the great food, and the view from our table towards the ocean we really couldn't have asked for a better evening. **There was live music near the bar that we could hear while we were enjoying our dinner. ** You have to the bar if you are paying with your Apple Wallet or other electronic payment. Thank you TIM for your attention at Valet - your service was much appreciated.

Located next to dolphin Bay, in Shell Beach, is the Cliffs Hotel and Marisol restaurant. I've been…read moregoing to Marisol for years, but never for brunch. It was awesome. The ambience can't get any better with being right on the ocean looking off a cliff. The service was good, nothing to complain about. We ordered mimosas, cappuccino's, and I ordered the eggs Benedict with homestyle fries. The mimosa was beautiful not too much orange juice, perfect balance. The cappuccino was delicious. Could've been a little hotter obviously it probably sat just for a little bit. Deep rich flavors, nice hint of cocoa and that deep rich coffee taste. And my eggs Benedict were just awesome. Perfectly cooked, with the yolk still runny, but not too runny in the middle. The hollandaise sauce was beautiful perfect consistency. Great taste. The homestyle fries/potatoes were perfectly cooked. They were cooked right to the borderline of crispiness and softness they were also perfectly seasoned. *Overall, I'm slapping myself for never coming to brunch!*

I've been coming here since around 2012 and have probably eaten here 4 or 5 times a year for many…read moreyears. I actually used to come even more often before the prices increased. While I understand that prices have gone up everywhere, I always kept coming back because the food was simple, consistently delicious, and the service was always warm and welcoming. That makes writing this review genuinely disappointing. During my last visit, I noticed something that completely changed how I felt about the restaurant. There was a Confederate flag displayed inside, which I had never seen before. I tried to give it the benefit of the doubt because there was also a Mexican flag displayed nearby. But when I walked up to pay, I noticed a Trump sticker and a "Nescum" sticker on the beverage cooler near the register. That's what really bothered me. Everyone is entitled to their own political beliefs, and I respect that. But I don't believe a family restaurant is the place to display political messages, regardless of which side they support. When a business chooses to do that, it changes the atmosphere and can make customers feel unwelcome. It honestly broke my heart because I've supported this restaurant for well over a decade. I've always appreciated the family, the food, and the service. Unfortunately, after this experience, I've decided I won't be returning. I truly wish them the best, but I miss when this was simply a great local Mexican restaurant where everyone could feel comfortable, regardless of their political views.

It's not clear whether we seat ourselves or wait to be seated so we just awkwardly stood imposing? on their luncheon while we waited for a welcome and some guidance. Service took forever. Chips and salsa were good while i waited. The waitress was nice but definitely understaffed so she was catering to the owners and their family vs anyone else. I'm actually still waiting as i write this.... Maybe I'll come back during the week some time but never on a Sunday again. Just got the food and still haven't received my water. It's been over 30 minutes.

We were going to have…read morebarbecue, but after watching a show at the Clark venture watching the celebration of ancestors it only felt right that we should have Mexican food. I ordered the La Torre a stack full of delicious fresh seafood, including octopus, scallop, shrimp, crab, cucumber, red onions, just a very flavorful fresh tower of seafood. My husband tried the red enchiladas, which were Carne Asada with red sauce. They have an assortment of MexicanAguas frescas too. It was kind of empty when we arrived, while we were there, people were arriving, so I'm hoping that the good reviews are bringing people and we were truly in need of a good seafood place like this. Atmosphere with decent music was semi loud, but it would be nice if they just had some more colors of Mexico where it can be vibrant and more inviting, I guess with time it will come.

First and foremost, I wanted to shoutout Lucas for his amazing service tonight. Even though…read moreeverything was running behind schedule, he always made sure that we were taken care of and always checked up on us and that was more than enough to make up for the lost time. I really do appreciate everything he did and if I came back for only one reason, it'd be because of Lucas' exceptional service. The food was also very good. The fresh wasabi given to us by Lucas was exceptional and it elevated the meal to new heights. The Halibut Tempura was a table favorite and it's something I'm looking forward to getting again. Overall, it was a very nice evening filled with great food and amazing service. Thank you to Lucas and the rest of the wonderful staff! :)

The rolls are always good and we really enjoyed trying most things at once. It's a fun way to try Kanpai! You don't need a reservation in a pair, but consider one if you're a bigger group. Otherwise, you're sat and served quickly. 3.8/5
