    Me after eating the Hana

    Genuinely the greatest burger I've ever consumed in my 14 years and 362 days of living. I ordered the Hana, it was an out of body experience that I look forward to next time I come. The sweet and savory mix of pineapple and teryaki sauce blessed my tounge with flavors I've never tasted before. Thank you for creating this absolute masterpiece of a burger, I would 10/10 recommen.

    My husband and I came here on May 21, 2024. Someone recommended this place to us so we decided to try it out. We arrived around 11:20 AM and there were a couple customers ahead of us and we noticed that the Fire Department was also there eating. We had our dogs with us and we sat outside. It was a cool day and it felt nice to sit outside in the sun. I ordered a 1/3 lb cheeseburger and my husband got a 1/2 lb cheeseburger. We shared an order of half onion rings and half fries. Looking at the time stamp of my photos, the food came out in 12 minutes (husband finished ordering at 11:24 AM and food came out at 11:36 AM). As I looked down at my burger which was open, I could see the juice running out of it, wow. I posted a video of it too lol. All the food was so hot so we could definitely tell it was just made. I literally had no complaints. We received friendly service, the food was delicious, loved the fries and the texture of the onion rings. If we're in the area again, this would be a place we would make a point of returning to as it was memorable.

    I remember going to Sylvester's 20 something years ago I knew the owner's Sons I went to high school with them and I got to say you know 26th 27 years later the place is a dump and the food is terrible I just ordered onion rings and haven't ordered from there and I don't know over a year and the onion rings were terrible there was no batter and what better there was wasn't even stuck to the onions they were just absolutely terrible I'm mortified at the amount of money that things cost to go eat there and yet it's crappy food they definitely are not the Sylvester's I remember I will never order from there again as long as I live

    Elk burger and hand dipped corn dog

    Elk burger was tasty and the hand dipped corn dog was really good. We liked the regular fries better than the garlic fries. Staff was attentive and the place had loud music which we liked and photos all over the walls.

    This is a local favorite spot that our friend recommended. It's a little roadside shack looking kind of place that makes a great burger. Our table got sweet potato fries which have powdered sugar on them: a special twist. And are thick waffle cut which is delicious. We got 2 California burgers and a mushroom burger with fries. All the burgers tasted so fresh and clean. The California burgers came with a good amount of avocado and the Mushroom burger with a generous portion of mushrooms. They put a large full ring of red onion on the burgers which no one was a fan of, but appreciate the generosity of the ingredients. They give a big portion of fries too. And the shakes looked delicious. The employees were very kind and had a smile on their faces. We were very comfortable outside on a colder day with the heaters and protected from the wind on the patio.

    FLAVOR (3.5/5): Love that they have different patty size options here for someone who can't eat too much, I appreciate it. Very simple burgers here, I tried their mushroom burger which was loaded in mushrooms and had lettuce, tomatoes, onions, a patty and pickles! The bun got soggy from all the juices so it would have been nice to be more toasted. INSTAGRAM WORTHY (3.5/5): The shop itself stands out in the color of the building! The interior is covered in pictures on the walls, they have merch for purchase and ample outdoor seating! The burgers itself aren't anything out of the ordinary look wise. SERVICE (4/5): Order at the counter and they'll bring food out to you! Not too long of a wait on a Thursday night. TAKEAWAYS: Lots of street parking, and they have a promo everyday! Thursdays for examples are half of beverages but certain days you can get free fries, half off certain burgers, etc.

    Everyone working at Sylvester's is top notch. Attentive, kind and happy to be there. Inside could use a little TLC. Burgers are great!

Might run out of some stuff because they are busy or it's late but it didn't bother us. If you get a salad without protein they reduce the price, which is nice. Clean, nice big windows.

We arrived around 3:30 on a Saturday and the restaurant was moderately busy. Our table was in the interior dining room at the window (nice view). Our Server for this experience (Kate) presented us with menus promptly. Kate was fabulous...her service "spot-on", professional and very personable as well (thank-you Kate). Our order consisted of Drinks : A Lemon Drop (4/5 - the question here was if the cocktail actually contained alcohol. We were assured it did, but the drink was replaced non-the-less. The replacement tasted the same ‍..."our bad", but Kate didn't charge us for either!). A Sandy Beach (5/5 - ya...this cocktail is outstanding!) and a Big Sur IPA (5/5). Our ordered Mains: Mushroom Swiss w/ Bacon 2X - one w/ Beer Battered Fries, the other w/a Side Caesar Salad - (5/5 - a definite "go-to burger " cause it's sooo darn good) Bay Basket (Mahi Mahi w/double Coleslaw) - (5/5 delicious and enough to take home for another meal) Grilled Jalapeno Burger (w/egg and Bacon) - (5/5 - always a winner). The wait for our meal after receiving our drinks seemed remarkably short...yay! This occasion was a Birthday celebration meal for one of our party of 4...and Kate presented us with a very delicious piece of Carrot Cake which was large enough for all of us to share - (5/5...if we could give the Carrot Cake a "higher" score/rating we would. It is, as far as Carrot Cake goes, truly OUTSTANDING!) The dining experience couldn't have been better...Kate's service and customer service in "making it right" with the Cocktail and Birthday Cake, the atmosphere/view and the fabulous food didn't disappoint. Once again, on this occasion, in this Yelper's opinion...Morro Grill on the Embarcadero in Morro Bay truly earned this "really, ya gotta go and enjoy" 5 Star review!

    Bayside Cafe is such a convenient and solid spot if you're staying at the campground nearby. We…read moreordered the clam chowder and the avocado shrimp Caesar salad, and both were genuinely delicious--fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you want after a day outside. What really made it stand out was how easy the whole experience was. We called in the order ahead of time, walked over from the state park, and everything was ready for pickup without any hassle. Super efficient and perfect for a camping trip setup when you don't want to deal with a long wait or sit-down meal. The hostess was also incredibly friendly, which made the whole interaction feel welcoming from the start. Big bonus that they're dog friendly too--always appreciated when traveling with a pup. After grabbing food, we explored the nearby trails around the bay, which honestly made the whole experience even better. We'll absolutely be back the next time we're in Morro Bay.

    Bayside Cafe was our lunch choice after having a nice paddle out to the sand dunes with the kayaks…read morewe rented (shoutout to A Kayak Shack) and what a great choice that turned out to be. Service was welcoming and friendly, the clam chowder is a must, our drinks stayed filled, and the ambience complimented the calm, cool, friday morning we had earlier on the water. California clam chowder - As described on their menu, it is a mix of their clam chowder and their spicy green chile soup. We absolutely loved this. I appreciate that it was not too salty, something that tends to be for a lot of places that serves clam chowder. There was plenty of clams, as you would expect but I come to find out later on my trip to a fish house in Monterey that this isn't always the case. We will come back to Bayside Cafe just for this. Fish & Chips - This one could have been a lot better. The fries and fish were fried to perfection but would have liked more seasoning since I did not get much from the fish. Drinks: Iced Tea - Sure, Iced tea not sweetened can be the same anywhere else but I don't know what it is but the brew that day was on point. The best part was that our servers made sure we didn't see the bottom. Overall, if they improved upon the flavor on the fish and chips and increased the portion of fries, I think Bayside Cafe would be a solid 5/5. Regardless, their location, clam chowder, and friendly service, is enough for me to return if we go kayaking again!
