We were seated promptly, but it took quite a while before a server came to our table. The restaurant didn't seem particularly busy, yet we had to wave someone down every time we needed anything. I ordered the halibut tacos, and they had very little fish compared to all the other fillings. My partner ordered the salmon salad. The salmon arrived looking burnt and had an unusual flavor. When we mentioned it, we were told that's how it's prepared, but they did replace the dish. Unfortunately, the replacement tasted the same. The salad itself was fresh and good, but the salmon had a flavor that seemed off. It's disappointing because the restaurant is in such a beautiful location, and we were expecting a much better dining experience. read more

We stopped here for lunch while driving along PCH 1 . The ocean view and the live music outside were beautiful, but unfortunately that was the best part of our visit. The service was disappointing from the start. Our table had a large hole in it, my boyfriend's plate had a chipped edge, and my napkin was dirty. I asked for a clean one, but it never came. When I reminded the server later, she asked if I wanted an extra napkin, which made it pretty clear there wasn't much communication between the staff. It was also very hard to get anyone's attention, and no one ever came by to check on our table. At one point, I even saw one of the servers walking around blowing bubble gum, which I personally don't think is appropriate for a restaurant like this. The food was just as disappointing. One of our kids ordered a burger, but the server never asked how he wanted it cooked, and it came out completely overcooked and dry. Our other child ordered the fish and chips, but it was mostly batter with very little fish. My boyfriend's fish burrito barely had any fish in it. I ordered the salmon salad because the ingredients sounded interesting--salmon, avocado, blueberries, pomegranate, and seeds. Unfortunately, the salmon was extremely salty and overcooked. I mentioned that it was almost impossible to eat, but I was told it was supposed to taste that way. A few minutes later they brought back the same salad with a different piece of salmon, but it tasted exactly the same. No apology, no alternative, and the salad stayed on the bill. The only other thing worth mentioning is the restroom situation. For such a large restaurant, having only two restrooms created a surprisingly long line. It's a beautiful place with an incredible view, but that's really the only thing that stood out. The food and service just didn't match the setting, and unfortunately I wouldn't come back. read more

I agree with the other reviews. Breathtaking location, delicious food, but service was lacking. We were driving on highway 1 and stumbled upon this restaurant for dinner. Statistically speaking, this is a no brainer. They have no competition. There wasn't any other restaurant in sight. Perched on a hill with the most amazing view. Their little courtyard looked like a storybook setting. We were seated by a lukewarm host. Our server seemed to be in a rush even though the place wasn't packed. I ordered the osso bucco, which had the most tender pork meat, risotto, and brussell sprouts. Sure it was overpriced and the portion was ridiculously small, but the flavor made up for it. Loved the tart black cherry mimosa - what a surprise combo! We were so hungry we just dug in without taking any photos. Oh after paying the bill, the server muttered have a good day under his breath as he was walking away, without any eye contact or smile. That pretty much summed up the service. And God forbid you need to use the bathroom! Trash was overflowing, floor was a mess, and they ran out of toilet paper. I had to flag someone down for help and got a weird look. read more

Of the recommended restaurants along the Big Sur highway, this was the only one whose menu appealed to me, so I ensured that passing by this point (about 20 minutes north of the Hearst Castle entrance) coincided with lunch. I had a small meal of clam chowder - a plain creamy broth, nice selection of clams - and crab cakes, which came with a light aioli mixed in with black beans and corn kernels. I think the cakes had filler, but there was also real crab in there. Pretty good, and a satisfactory light lunch. Service a little awkward at first. I had to wait quite a while at the front counter for someone to show up, and then the seating area was blocked off with a rope we had to go around. Also a while to wait for the server, but once I placed my order, service was brisk and efficient. read more

The food and the views are INCREDIBLE! But the service is questionable? We stayed at Ragged Point for 3 days for our Honeymoon and ate at this restaurant several times. What we discovered is the night shift and day shift are two completely different vibes. The Day Shift is happy to check in on you, accommodating, and kind. The Night Shift could genuinely not care if you're there. After being sat pretty quickly on a not so busy Tuesday Night, we watched everyone around us be served for 40 minutes before I could get anyone's attention. Lo and behold, the only person I could grab was the incredibly kind hostess who ended up taking our order. Once the server saw that we were actually being helped he decided he wanted to be our server...kind of? No apologies, nothing. And then he performed his disappearing act again. The hostess ended up coming back to check in on us and gave us some cheesecake. Get this girl a serving position. The Pro's: The Butternut Squash Salad, Cheesecake, Pancakes, Classic Breakfast, and Soup of the Day were phenomenal. The views, gorgeous. The morning crew, lovely. The Hostess with pearl earrings, nice. The Con's: Being ignored by every server and busser with zero accountability. RIP It's a great spot, and perfect for breakfast. Hopefully they can figure out dinner service if they want people to eat. read more

Incredible pastries! We had the most delicious brioche with a ton of creamy, delicious custard inside! I'd return again just for the pastries never mind the beautiful ambiance. The coffee shop loaded with tempting desserts is very convenient and you can be here in just 20 minutes from Cambria. Our breakfast & coffee on the patio was delicious as well. Excited to return for Sunday Brunch next time. read more

We were seated right away, which was good, but then it took someone over 20 minutes to come & get our drink order. I ordered a Bloody Mary with a salt rim & my husband ordered a large beer. 20 minutes later she brought the drinks. The Mary had a Tahine rim. When I told her I asked for a salt rim she apologized & said she would replace it. In the meantime we ordered our food. The jerk Chicken sandwich & fish & chips. She brought back the Mary with no rim. When I pointed it out she said " I put the salt in the drink" What? I just kept the drink. She did indeed put the salt in the drink which made it unsinkable. That & the very generous amounts of hot sauce. We get our food, the Chicken is cooked like Jerky. When I told my husband, he said well you or other Jerk Chicken . Jerk is a sauce. My husband ate my sandwich & his fish and chips. I left hungry and deeply disappointed. My husband however, was satisfied with his meal. 3 hours later he was running to the bathroom throwing up and diarrhea. Yep. Food poisoning. We paid $75 for this horrible, horrible meal. I considered myself lucky that I didn't eat the food. Save your money, There is great food in Cambria. read more

Had the Monte Cristo and it was very well seasoned and crispy on the outside. Pretty good stop for lunch along the coast.

The best views! Grab a seat on the patio on a sunny day if you're able to. Although the ocean isn't very visible from the restaurant itself, the outside grounds are so well landscaped and you will see many beautiful birds. Once you finish your meal, take a stroll to the viewpoints on the grounds. Absolutely stunning views of the coast! Iconic photo ops. The food at the restaurant was cooked well. However, overall it lacked salt and seasoning. Also, the fried chicken on my mom's meal was extremely overcooked. If they can correct the seasoning and not served overcooked chicken, this would have been a 5 star review. read more

We came in 15 minutes before closing and yet they still accommodated us with grace and energy, we are so grateful! Our server was friendly and made us feel welcome and wanted, which was great after our 4 hour drive to the location, and no other food options were nearby. The chicken and risotto was delightful, I highly recommend. I ate every last bite! The fish and chips were well received, too. And they have a healthy portion of chicken fingers for those in your crew who aren't into fancy things. Not to mention the view is breathtaking! It has high potential to be very romantic. I guess that's why people choose to get married here :) read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our late lunch here while driving this area of Big Sur Hwy 1. The food was great and came out quickly. They had a menu full of great items, and we enjoyed the fish and chips and the Birria sandwich and onion rings. Loved that they had Pepsi products as well. Service was quick and friendly. Views from the outside siding were great & they also had ample indoor dining. Definitely walk around and enjoy the property like we did. The views of the seaside cliffs are amazing and there is a nice path to walk around. The gift shop on property is also nice. We plan to come back here someday and stay on the property, as it looks great! read more

The only good thing about this restaurant is the ocean view. The sunset was beautiful. Would I go back there? I'm sorry, no. The restaurant is beautifully built but not maintained or cared for. Spider webs on the wall, dirty and dusty windows and filthy bathrooms.. I don't think this is qualify for a restaurant. I really hope the management will make an improvement on the operation because it is a nice place but lack of care. read more

Eight of us on a eBike ride arrived for lunch (with reservations) and were immediately seated inside with a nice view of the great scenery behind the restaurant. There is also beautiful patio seating. Service was friendly and great, with frequent touches to refill waters and teas and inquire other needs. The clam chowder was excellent with a thickened base full of clam and potatoes. The Butternut Salad, Monte Cristo Sandwich and all the desserts were terrific! There is also a Coffee Bar that serves espresso and tea drinks, beer and wine, pastries, and to-go orders from 8 am to 3 pm every day. read more

I was so excited to eat here because it was supposed to be one of the highlights of my road trip, a sunset dinner overlooking the ocean. Unfortunately, it ended up being one of the most disappointing dining experiences I've ever had. I ordered a medium-rare steak, but when I cut into it, I didn't believe it was cooked correctly. I politely brought it to my server's attention, expecting it to be remade or for a manager to come discuss it with me. Instead, I was told my only options were a 10% discount or paying for another steak if I wanted a replacement. What should have been a simple issue turned into a 30-minute ordeal. I repeatedly asked to speak with a manager but was never given the opportunity. Throughout the interaction, I felt like my concerns weren't being taken seriously, and the lack of communication only made the experience more frustrating. I ended up crying at the table--not because of the steak itself, but because what I had been looking forward to as a memorable sunset dinner on my trip became such a stressful and upsetting experience. I understand that mistakes can happen in any restaurant. What matters is how they're handled. A simple conversation with a manager, clear communication, and a genuine effort to make things right would have completely changed my impression. Sadly, that's not what happened. read more

We were unfortunately very disappointed with our experience. Our server was short and inattentive throughout the meal. We started with the shishito peppers, which arrived undercooked and hard. After we sent them back, they came back cooked but drenched in oil with no salt or seasoning. We also ordered the steak, which was similarly unseasoned and greasy. Overall, a big disappointment. read more

Ragged Point offers spectacular views of the California coast and a nice break from the drive. If there's a spot free in the parking lot, it is worth a short stop just for that. We dined on the spacious patio with our husky and found it pleasant enough (although just be aware, if you have a dog, they seem more "dog tolerant" than "dog friendly." Our waiter was visibly annoyed that we had ours with us). The menu had a nice range of choices and portions were large (too big, actually - we both had some left over but didn't think it would last the drive). While the food looked good, both my sandwich (pictured) and my husband's fish and chips were quite bland. Customer service could also be better. read more

Ragged Point Restaurant - My sandwich. - American Near Me - Ragged Point, California

The location is beautiful the food not so much. We waited 30 minutes for a table and if we had previewed the menu, I'm sure we would not have stayed. The Sunday Menu is limited and you must like grits as they're a main stay in every menu item. I was hoping for a shrimp cocktail or salad or other fish, oysters were the only seafood. I had a hard time picking out something to eat off the menu. I had the wago hamburger without the fried egg. It came with a black hair on it. I found the beef mushy with a weird texture and couldn't finish it. My friend had the fried (only choice) chicken sandwich which came on thick biscuits and was very dry. He did not eat it all. The place looks old and the windows look dirty and worn out. We saw bare wires sticking out in places. The waiter did take off one beer and a glass of champagne (which was the best part of the dining experience ) due to the black hair. I just wish the menu was more diversified and showcased the local fish and shellfish. read more

I must say we were very disappointed that Hwy 1 was closed on our way to Monterrey but on our return back to the 46 we stopped to eat and boy were we happy we did so! Gabby the waitress was so sweet and courteous. She was also very patient as I couldn't decide what to order. Now the food was very filling and appetizing. Keep in mind we sat outside and the ambiance was so beautiful as we could easily view the coast! Thank you for the good food, great customer service and beautiful view read more

Nice menu offerings, excellent food, and a spectacular setting. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Ragged Point Restaurant.

Such a pretty little spot. Nice place to have some brunch on the way back from Big Sur/camping. Super pretty and quaint and lovely live music when we were there. Nice views of the ocean as well. There's also a hotel, coffee shop, snack bar, small market and gift shop as well. The drinks from the coffee shop are really good. We got some drinks to go after, but during our meal we really enjoyed the Big Sur Fog Tea Latte - earl grey with caramel and chocolate. It tasted like a fancy milk tea, but the focus is still on the tea flavor. The flavor was very earl grey tea forward and beautifully complimented with the caramel and chocolate flavors. Toasted marshmallow was great too. As for the food, the crab benedict was delicious - the crab cakes were perfectly seasoned. Th calamari katsu was very unique - tender and not chewy/rubbery at all. Good breading, nice and crisp. The side of macaroni salad was really good, love the big pasta they used for it and it wasn't heavy at all or super heavy on the mayo like it usually is. The biscuits were fire, beautifully flaky with good raspberry jam, served with butter and honey. I enjoyed the shrimp and grits, the shrimp was cooked perfectly, not rubbery at all, perfect seasoning and fresh. It's good that the grits came with the toppings of the shrimp, bacon and peppers, otherwise the grits would have sadly been a bit bland/underseasoned. The cheese flavor was not strong enough with the grits. It still balanced well with the saltiness of the bacon and shrimp otherwise. I would come back here when I visit Big Sur again, Deetjen's is still my favorite, but this place is better than Whale Watcher's Cafe. read more

The California Lime Pie was so good... It was the absolute best key lime pie I've ever had! Which is unfortunate because I'll probably never be back here again since I was in the general area for vacation... The girl working at the register was very kind and patient! This one lady came in ordered some coffee, left and came back asking for more coffee, the girl gave her extra. Then the lady left and came back asking for another... So she got more. Then left and came back a third time... Insane... And asked for extra again. She got the third extra helping and then left still disappointed with all the extra coffee she got but the employee helping her was smiling the whole time and super understanding and patient. I got the grasshopper which was alright, I wish there was more mint and chocolate flavor to it. The espresso was strong and I think overwhelmed the flavor of everything else so I have no idea why that lady needed so much extra coffee in hers. We also got the fog cake and that was pretty decent. Very sweet. My friend enjoyed his boosted strawberry lemonade which was a special for the day. read more

What a beautiful spot, I'm surprised it currently only has 3 stars. Everything we ate was delicious - crab benedict, shrimp and grits, byo omelette, and calamari katsu. The biscuits that came with the omelette were to die for! Definitely opt in for those instead of the toast. The grits though was a bit bland, would opt in for the potatoes. Service was great and accommodating, got a high chair for my nephew and had outdoor seating for the doggo. The views were fantastic and they also had a musician playing too. It just felt like the perfect Sunday morning with the fam. Also all the beverages deserve high praise! Some stand outs - Big Sur Fog Tea Latte, Toasted Marshmallow Mocha, Honey Bear Cold Brew and the Prickly Pear Mimosa. read more

This review is for a lunch meal and dinnerat the sit-down restaurant. Traveling along the coast from Morro Bay on CA HWY 1. Need to find a spot to have lunch. Perfect timing that this place came up. Got seated right way and I ordered the Mediterranean salad. Was a good portion, fresh ingredients with the right amount of protein (shrimp). If I were going to go back, I would recommend it. The ambiance is like dining in a greenhouse with a patio deck available. Very welcoming and pleasant service staff. Plenty of free parking and restroom are very clean. Ragged Point is more of a complex; it has an Inn, convenience/fuel station, art gallery/gift shop, coffee shop/snack bar, and burger shop (which was closed). Based on this experience alone, I would have given them 5 stars. However, read on. We continued our drive up the coast and did some hiking. Knowing that we would stop here for dinner, because we had such an enjoyable meal for lunch. Boy was this not the case. We were totally disappointed. Seated right away, but took a long time to for someone to take our drink order and meal order. Staff are over worked and seem and confused. We saw some people seated after us get their orders in before us. If we had other options, we would have left. But remember you do not have a lot of options on CA HWY 1. Ordered the Pork Chop, It was supposed to be a Iberico Tomahawk, it wasn't, it was a regular pork chop (be it was a good size). Supposed to come with Apple-Potato Hash, I received regular mash potatoes. Supposed to be Grilled Broccollini it was raw broccoli. When we did get our drink order in earlier, I requested a glass of Chardonay, never received it, but also didn't get charged. The menu does state the pork chop "(cooked medium)" mine was questionable (as a matter of personal preference I never send anything back, I've been known to box it up and cook it longer at home, rather than sending it back). I noticed two other dinners send their steaks back because it was undercooked. This meal was not worth the cost or time. I would not recommend you dining here. However, do stop, because of the views are wonderful. read more

The wife and I shared the berry salad and the fish and chips. She had a cup of the chowder, which was delicious. We did find a hair in the salad, and I found that the batter was not so well cooked on a couple of the pieces of fish; however, the fish tasted very good and fresh. Service was OK, not overly attentive, but reasonably friendly. Ambience is amazing, their glass covered patio as well as outdoor seating in such a gorgeous location is what makes this place special. This would be a three star review at best without the location. Pricing was reasonable for the level of Restaurant. read more

So we were staying at ragged point and I made reservations to go to the restaurant on site. And I also will probably go tomorrow morning for breakfast. Our server was RGabriel.. He was very attentive and nice and highly recommended the Branzino which is a white fish similar to Seabass. It was exceptional. I'm glad we didn't have leftovers except for some of the wine as we had bought a bottle earlier and drink half of it. forgot to take a picture of the food. I'm so mad. They serve bread, which is nice because a lot of places now charge you. We got some Honig Sauvignon Blanc. If you are spending any time at the Inn, you must try this restaurant. The view is nice and very calming. Now for breakfast, I give it 5 stars. All the food was excellent, omelette, black cherry preserves, fruit, coffee. Also the prices were extremely reasonable. Again RGabriel was our server. Found out 60% of the staff, hotel, restaurant etc., live on site. read more
