Great place to eat, with ocean view. It’s kind of a hidden gem, if you’re driving through San Simeon. The menu is fairly simple, with delicious options. I love the grilled turkey with Ortega on sourdough. Gluten free bread options, available. Impossible Shepards pie is another favorite dish. Amazing flavor and bang for the buck. The ocean view is also quite nice. Definitely recommend.

The boiled oysters were to die for. Oh my gosh! The fish was buttery and delicioso. Outside you could see the beach and ocean. It's perfect to go during sunset. I actually liked the sourdough bread that was served with our appetizer.

Conveniently located off of Highway 1 and Pico Avenue next to the Cavalier Resort. Lovely ambiance with ocean view seating. Staff provided friendly and attentive service. The food was delicious and so we returned for breakfast the next day.

Great little spot to eat at after leaving a nearby historical attraction. Servers were knowledgeable of the menu & they had some good vegetarian options. Good sized portions if you're hungry, if ever in the area again I'm definitely going back to this establishment.

I was pleasantly surprised by how yummy the food was here! The ratings weren’t amazing online so I was wondering how it would be. The chicken Marsala was delicious and my son had the halibut which was also yummy! My husband had the impossible burger and he has a severe allergy that the manager handled wonderfully! My son had a lemon tart and I had a pear tart, both were great, although a tad expensive for how small they were. Overall it was a wonderful dinner!

Lovely atmosphere, carrying service, and delicious food we experienced there during our trip to Heart Castle. In this place, we saw people enjoying their work. Nice seasonal decor, big portions, fresh food, smiles, and joy.

I thought this was a very nice restaurant, the food was nice. I ordered fish & chips and a mai thai, both delicious although the fish filet portions were disappointingly small. But maybe that's an attestant to how delicious it was. We had a nice quiet nice watching the sunset from our table. if we are in the area again i'd love to return

The restaurant is located in the lovely town of San Simeon and we happen to visit here on our way from San Jose to Los Angeles. I like the atmosphere here and the service is absolutely fantastic, i mean all the staff are nice. The portion is a little to much for us so I recommend 2 mains and a salad for a group of 3 or 4.

We came here for dinner and breakfast while staying in San Simeon. Dinner was really good. We ordered the broiled salmon and the BBQ burger with onion rings. Both dishes were very flavorful, fresh, and filling. The salmon - glazed over with a delicious coat of garlic butter - was perfectly tender. Sadly, we waited a really long time to be seated and then to get food. Breakfast was also very good! We got our food much faster this time. We ordered the Garden omelette with country potatoes and the Denver omelette with hash browns. Both were super delicious and filling. The only downside was that I asked for coffee with oat milk but was given regular cow’s milk instead. Wasn’t too happy about that, but I’ll let it pass since the omelette was just that good. Server’s were very attentive and regularly walked around offering more water, coffee, etc. Also, the ocean view from the restaurant is absolutely gorgeous!

We stopped in for breakfast in June, 2023. It was a nice little restaurant. It had beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean. Although it had the morning fog/haze when we were there. So it limited the views at breakfast time. Although even a limited view is better than the view one gets at a lot of restaurants for breakfast. The people we dealt with were very nice. We ordered breakfast which came out friarly quickly. I don't know what it is, but we had two meals at two different restaurants in this area. Both got the orders wrong. Thankfully, we could accept the mess up and didn't say anything. I never say anything. If I do, not until after we finished. So they probably don't know our order was wrong from what she read back to us (that we ordered). But the food was pretty good. Breakfast wasn't inexpensive for what we had. But it also could have been more expensive than it was. All in all, we had a nice breakfast. Our order was wrong, but at least it was something we were still willing to consume. I still recommend the Cavalier Coastal Kitchen for a nice breakfast. We did have a nice breakfast even with the change in plans.

We stayed at Cavalier Oceanfront Resort, so naturally, we chose to try the closest restaurant, Cavalier Coastal Kitchen. I started with margaritas, but unfortunately, they were on the sweeter side, likely due to too much mix. Not quite what I was hoping for! For dinner, I ordered the seafood pasta, which I enjoyed—it was quite good! My husband chose the special of the day, meatloaf, but he was really disappointed with the taste. It seemed like it had been sitting under the heat lamp for a bit too long. Overall, it had its highs and lows. I appreciate the convenience of being close to our hotel, but I hope for better execution on dishes in the future!

I was excited to try this place as I had heard from locals around holiday time that they have a great Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner. Well, I cannot say that we had the best experience. First of all, it took 30 plus minutes to get our food. Other tables that were seated after us were served their food before we got ours. When our food finally came out I asked why it took so long and others were served before us and our served told us that they had to go to their cold storage to get the meat. We had a simple order. A Philly Steak sandwich with onion rings and a cup of clam chowder and 2 waters. A pretty simple order. I could have been totally understanding about the challenges they were facing had anyone checked on us or told us what was going on and at least given us the choice to order something else. But I was only told what happened after the food arrived and I had to ask. Then we noticed all the grease on the onion rings and pooled on the plate and they were so greasy we left most of them as we could not eat them. When a different server came to take our plates we informed him they were in edible and his response was “oh yeah.” Not what you want to hear. The sandwich and clam chowder were just ok. In fairness to our server she did offer us dessert and we declined. So she came back to our table with our check and said she had talked to her manager and they cut our check by half. While we appreciated that immensely, this all could’ve been avoided. Had they spoke to us and not let us sit for 30+ minutes. If you read my reviews I try really hard to be fair and I hate having to give bad reviews but I am also honest. I would give 2.5 stars if allowed but rounded up not down, trying to be fair.
