My family and I tried Sushi 805 while visiting the Pismo Beach area, and we all really enjoyed it…read more They offer all-you-can-eat sushi and Korean BBQ, and the all-you-can-eat option is definitely worth it if you have a good appetite. (805 Sake Sushi) My husband went with the all-you-can-eat menu and loved it. I chose to order individually because I'm on a high-protein diet and wanted more sashimi and rolls without as much rice. I ordered the 15-piece sashimi, and it was outstanding. The fish tasted fresh, the portion was surprisingly filling, and it was absolutely worth it. If you're looking for lower-carb or higher-protein options, ordering à la carte may actually make more sense since a lot of the all-you-can-eat sushi selections are naturally more rice-heavy. One tip if you're bringing kids with smaller appetites: consider ordering them a single roll instead of paying for the kids' all-you-can-eat option. My daughter ordered just one roll and couldn't even quite finish it, so the all-you-can-eat price wouldn't have made sense for her. Overall, everyone left happy and full. My husband loved the all-you-can-eat experience, I loved being able to get exactly what I wanted with the sashimi, and the kids enjoyed their food too. Definitely a great option if you're in the Pismo Beach/Grover Beach area and craving sushi or Korean BBQ.

Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this restaurant based on my experience. The staff was friendly…read moreand provided good service, which I appreciated, but the food was very disappointing. The biggest issue was the sushi rice. The rice in the nigiri was overly mushy, while the rice in several rolls contained hard, crunchy pieces that seemed undercooked. The seasoning was also off, with so much vinegar that the rice tasted noticeably sour. I've eaten sushi in many different places and have a wide range of experiences to compare it to, and this was among the poorest quality sushi I've had. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience fell well below expectations. While the staff was kind and welcoming, I would not return or recommend this restaurant based on the quality of the food.

An Unforgettable Birthday Dinner with Breathtaking Ocean Views!…read more We came to Ventana Grill in Pismo Beach for a Sunday night dinner date to celebrate my wife's birthday. This place definitely gets packed, so I highly recommend reserving a table in advance. We were lucky enough to get a window seat, and the outdoor patio views of the ocean are simply amazing! On top of that, the staff here has definitely become even more friendly--our server, Zach, was super efficient and attentive throughout our meal. The food was incredible from start to finish: * Mahi Mahi Fish Ceviche: We started with this alongside fresh tortilla chips, and it was honestly one of the best ceviches we've ever had. * Clam Chowder Soup: This special clam chowder came served with Parmesan cheese bread, which was absolute perfection. Again, hands down one of the best soups we've tasted! * Molcajete Surtido: For our main dish, we ordered this classic feast loaded with grilled colossal shrimp, arrachera steak, chicken breast, chorizo, spring onion, jalapeño peppers, nopalitos, avocado, pork rinds, molcajete salsa, queso fresco, and corn tortillas, served with a side of rice and beans. All the meats were so tender and flavorful, and the rice and beans were really nice. We were so full that we didn't even get to touch the tortillas! To top off a wonderful evening, they brought out a complimentary ice cream with a candle to celebrate my wife's birthday, which was such a thoughtful and sweet touch. Whether you're planning a special date night or a family outing, we definitely recommend Ventana Grill!

The oysters were incredibly sweet and creamy, the octopus was perfectly tender without being chewy, and the Kurobuta pork chop was cooked to perfection, juicy, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The chicken was another standout, with wonderfully crispy skin and tender, juicy meat. Even the Caesar salad was fresh and exactly what you'd expect from a classic Caesar. Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience. Great food, excellent service, and unbeatable ocean views make this a place I'd definitely come back to.

Two hostess greeted us, one smiled while the blonde appeared like she was not having a good day. Quite unfortunate that an amazing restaurant like this has an employee greeting its customers and do not understand that they are the face and first impression of the business. She did not know how to speak cordially, no smile and just had a bad attitude. Michael and Haley more than made up for the hostess who almost caused us to cancel our reservation and celebrate elsewhere. The service was outstanding, consistent and welcoming. Ambience is phenomenal. We sat at the patio and enjoyed watching the sunset for an extended time. Tables were separated enough to provide enough privacy. We had the seafood tower, roasted beets, Mac n cheese, peanut butter tower and a couple of cocktails. They were all delicious and prepared and presented well. Definitely enjoyed the meal and experience. I hope that they train the blonde hostess to be a better representation of their establishment.

A Solid Seafood Spot near Pismo Pier!…read more We stopped by Ada's Fish House, which is conveniently located just a few blocks away from Pismo Pier. Parking was easy--there is some free street parking right outside, plus a full dedicated parking lot for Ada's right on the backside. We had reserved a table in advance, which I definitely recommend doing as it gets busy. They started us off with complimentary bread served alongside balsamic vinaigrette and olive oil, which was a nice touch. Here is how our meal shaped up: * Halibut Special: This came served with fresh veggies and brown rice. It was absolutely fantastic and packed with great flavor--easily the highlight of the meal! * Shrimp Tacos: This special order came as a plate of three tacos. While they looked great, I would probably skip them next time as they were just okay and lacked a bit of flavor. * French Fries: We ordered a side of french fries, and they were fantastic--crispy, hot, and delicious. * Kids' Mac & Cheese: The kids ordered this, and it was a solid, decent option. Overall, the dining experience was fine, and our waitress was very efficient. If you are in the Pismo Beach area and looking for a solid meal with convenient parking, Ada's Fish House is worth a visit!

I was greeted immediately and when I gave my name, they indicated that they had trying to call me because they had no more pork for the katsu. I never got a call, so I was a little put off. Order chicken katsu instead and it took another 20 minutes. Food was mediocre. The chicken katsu was only so so and they forgot to give us sauce. The rolls we ordered were not flavorful no something to wow about. Because of the delay, they gave us 2 cups of miso soup, thus earning them the 3 stars. Restaurant was busy and many of the tables had people dining there. The restaurant is small but very cute. Next time I am in the area will give them another chance.
