If you go to this restaurant don't order the meat! If you like your meat juicy and medium rare this is not the place for you! It was very dry! Yes they give you the dipping juice, but it was still very dense!

The small order of fish and chips consists of 2 massive pieces of beautiful white cod fried to perfection and some delicious fries on the side. I then make my husband order a roast beef sandwich that is cut fresh in front of your eyes and served with some yummy jue. Great family eating place. Get a pitcher of beer... More

For a quick meal, this is a good place to stop. Food is average fare. We had fish & chips and a reuben sandwich with two beverages for about $20. You order at the front counter and the food is delivered to your table.

Red light on beef makes you think you are getting rare beef. We got a plateful of tough beast that we couldn't eat.

The food was good but my husband and I both agreed that we should have split one order and shared it because one order was definately ample for the two of us. We enjoyed the french dip.

I am a huge Reuben fan and have had some bad ones and some good ones. The Reuben was about $11 so I didn't want to waste so much if it was bad. I caved in and it was worth it. Such a good sandwich, in the top 5 Reubens I have had. Wife had the carved sandwich which was... More

Morro Bay is full of mediocre places like this. It was packed on the Sunday night we visited. Their carvery seemed to be attracting a lot of people for the sandwiches. We laughed over the salads as the plate was the size of a saucer and the young guy at the counter said - "only two toppings" for the lettuce.... More

My wife and I took our 17 month old son here for lunch. This place is usually packed, but it was empty on a Tuesday for lunch. No wait, friendly staff, great food. The fish and chips were delightful, and the chowder was delicious! If you're looking for a friendly place to grab a bite for lunch, I'd look here!

This place has good food and an interesting menu but if you go on the weekend be prepared for a long wait in line. There were only a few people in front of us and yet the wait was intolerable. Apparently, from my observation (I had nothing else to do while I waited!), the owner was making each sandwich and... More

My Husband and I had been to this restaurant before and enjoyed it. We decided to try it again on our recent visit and was not disappointed. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere of the restaurant was nice. It was very family friendly :)
