Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Avila Beach

Food was great. Farm to table menu. Service Was great. Clay and Hunter did an amazing job. Owner Ashlie is always a site to great and converse with customers.

Had dinner here on our first night visiting SLO. Really good tacos. They were generously filled with meat. The quesobirria tacos were very tasty and the shrimp in the tacos were perfectly cooked. The margaritas were good although I wish there was more of it. We had the queso fundido as a starter. Very good as well, although they could improve it by using oaxaca and asadero cheeses to make it a bit more legit. The tortillas are freshly made and soooo good. Service was excellent. I would definitely dine here again.

We were most impressed with our waiter.I think his name is Brad, who was also floor manager. He is tall with dark hair. His communication skills were excellent, and he kept coming out from the back to reassure us when our food items were being done and how soon delivered. We initially were told by another wait staff upon arrival that our indoor reserved table that we had made weeks ago could not be given to us. My wife hadn't been feeling well so that was not going to work for us, and we didn't want to leave, so that waiter took it to the floor manager where it was straightened out. Overall, we are pleasantly surprised first by the managerial services and second by the food.

Wonderful Xmas Eve celebration Ambiance from lobby employs greetings to host & of course our wauter Thomas was extremely professional attentive & very personalized service. He even took his time helping us take family photo!! A heater was provided without question as some restaurants do not have enough heaters; we were thrilled as we would have had to leave as it was too cold on balcony without it & therefore everything was perfect, as usual. Delicious nachos, fried chicken & “Craft cocktails” were superior! Thank you & merry Christmas!!

Wonderful night with a local jazz group followed by a great dinner. The good life at Trilogy Monarch Dunes!
