Service was wonderful, food was tasty. Best hashbrowns I've ever had at a restaurant! Coffee was pretty great, too! Cute little place off the beaten path. Lots of options for breakfast. Great options for lunch, too. Very clean, welcoming, and overall delightful.

Nice fresh seafood. Fish n chips fresh crisp and tasty. Oysters on the half shell both bbq baked and raw were excellent. An added bonus is clear view of the Moss Landing power plant where a battery fire occurred earlier this year. This idyllic seaside area doesn’t really need a battery facility that can and did cause local environmental harm.

This tiny place is a gem. Seriously, we had lunch here then dinner at a Michelin star restaurant in Carmel, and we preferred our lunch! We had the fried artichokes, the fish wrap and the fish and chips; they were all stellar. (I grew up in Britain, and I know fish and chips!) The house tomato sauce is unusual and goes really well with seafood. The service was quick and friendly. Hey, Michelin, how about stopping by the Moss Landing Inn!

The sweet and spicy calamari had amazing sauce, the jalapeño peppers were spicy, the fish and chips were tasty good size serving, fried artichokes were very yummy, the skirt steak was tender but a little over marinated. Beer was nice and cold.

The service was amazing. We were seated immediately by the owner and our order quickly taken. I ordered the Mickey mouse pancake for my daughter and they surprised her with Minnie which made her day! The Fried Artichoke was delicious. We split the patty melt and fries which was the perfect portion for our lunch. Highly recommend this cute diner!

SO SO happy we stumbled upon this place after seeing the ‘Deep fried artichokes’ sign on the freeway. The artichokes were amazing! A lovely substitute for fish for vegetarians that are hanging out with seafood lovers. The host was lovely, served us hot water instead of regular iced water no problem - the decor and flowers made for the perfect ambience. Continued on with our roadtrip feeling so satisfied!!

After dropping off our son for his first day of kindergarten, my wife needed a mimosa to help her adjust. It was our first time at Moss Landing Cafe and we were extremely happy with our visit. We shared a bowl of Clam Chowder(which may have been my favorite ever) and some French fried artichokes(delicious!) It was early, but the breakfast crowd had already started bubbling in. We were lucky to find a parking spot and an open table immediately. The staff were cheerful and friendly. The restaurant was very small, quaint, and clean. I can’t say enough how reflective the cafe is of Moss Landing culture and vibe. Can’t wait to return!

Nice breakfast right off hwy 1 but still quiet and quaint. Breakfast tasted good, and service was very friendly. If I could pick a nit I would have like for a better presentation of the food. It was a bit too 'homey' in terms of appearing appetizing.

This is exactly the small roadside Café. You would expect any Harbor and fishing community. Located just a couple blocks from the harbor area is small restaurant that is favorite with the locals. There’s not a lot of seating so sometimes there’s a little wait. The staff is very friendly and tentative constantly refilling your coffee and catering to all your needs. The crab and artichoke and cheese omelette was pretty good however, it was overcooked. It would be nice if they offered country fried potatoes in addition to the shredded, hashbrowns. The deep-fried artichokes are to die for with their crispy outside and soft artichoke center. I wouldn’t pass it up if you’re in the area and you’ll be the judge.

I rated the service 5 stars because the host and lady who took our order were so very friendly. We all felt welcomed and it definitely enhanced our experience. We ordered the fish and chips - one kid size and the other regular, both a great helping of fish, the regular comes with a third piece and cole slaw. My friend and I split the special Louie Salad and they plated it separate for us (and we didn't even ask for this, so lovely). Also had to try the fried artichokes 😍 yummmm first time experience was Ah-mazing. Thank you so much for a wonderful food family experience ❤️

Food was ok, nothing that would really stand out. The fish sandwich was made well but it didn't taste as flavorful as I would have expected. Deep fried artichokes were good and would recommend trying that. Not sure why there is this new trend with small restaurants now charging 18% service fee for a family lunch with four people. It used to be mandatory for a big crowd but the coastal restaurants are now using it to bump up their revenue, expecting tourists to pay and not return. A family lunch shouldn't mandate service fee, it's an underhanded tactic and sure way to not have repeat customers.
