Best Seasonal Restaurants in Avila Beach

Our server was Chris and he was very good and it was very busy tonight. My husband and I both got the January prefix special. We both had the steak his was rare and mine was medium. We had the meat salad, which was absolutely terrific. Our dinners came with potatoes and vegetables. We both had leftovers plus our desserts haven’t tried them yet, but I’m sure they’re great. I cannot believe I’ve never reviewed this restaurant as we’ve been here so many times.

It’s always so fun to dine here. The servers were exceptional last night and the food even better than usual! And the decor, well….overwhelmingly beautiful. Don’t ever change, Madonna Inn and restaurants!

This place has an amazing view! We sat in the outside covered area which had a prime view. At sunset. The service was great! The food was delicious! We had a lot of the raw items; oysters, tuna poke tower, albacore ceviche and crudo sampler (which actually is not crudo but actually sashimi but was still delicious). We also had the octopus and caesar salad which was not your ordinary caesar salad. It had bacon and a 6 minute boiled egg. The smoked old fashioned was delicious, smelled amazing (apple and campfire smell) and was quite a show. They also had amazing local wines and for those who like wine I will tell you they had great glassware too But honestly what stole the show was the desserts. The corn cake was Amazing!!!! So delicious and different.. We also had the bread pudding which was also delicious but slightly less delicious than the corn cake. Also we went with our kids. There is no kids menu but our kids are great eaters and love raw and cooked seafood so they ate all the food we ordered and loved it. We will definitely be back again.

This delightful side street patio experience was as exceptionally delicious as the setting was cozy sheik. From our charming waitress, perfectly garnished cocktails, and exceptional entrees - this is one not to miss.

This place was OUTSTANDING! We were greeted with a wonderful smile and the food was fantastic! We can’t wait for our next visit.
