"At the suggestion of a friend, who knew I was taking a road trip to Monterey, this was a good place to pop in for a nosh on the way and boy, she was not kidding ! I have driven by here a 100 times and never stopped and now I will always make it a point to stop. My friend and I popped in about 1:00 PM for a bite and chose the B,L,T Avocado and fries. (Menu is quite extensive and very reasonably priced) Serving was plentiful enough to split, which we did, though it was so good I kind of wanted it keep it all to myself. But this along with a cold beverage fit the gullet just right. Our server Curtis, was so much fun and knew his 'cold beverages ', we thoroughly enjoyed spending an hour here before hitting the road again. On our way back from Monterey, we thought, I wonder if Curtis is working tonight, so let 's pop in again and get a nosh before finishing the drive back to San Francisco. Bingo, Curtis was there and even remembered us. We had a good giggle about our trip (it was a surprise to my friend for his Birthday) and this time we had the fried Calamari, which again was plentiful and so fresh and had both rings and legs (that 's what I call them). Not a bit of grease on the plate and certainly nothing left when we were done. The entire staff was upbeat, fun and well informed about their food options and were even honest about 'what they did not recommend ', which I completely appreciated. They have outside seating, which is very inviting on a nice day with views of the Ocean. Pastries look 'to die for ', but both times we were too full to indulge, next time ! Next time you are in the area and wondering if you 'should or shouldn 't stop ' STOP!!!!"

"I chose Cabo 's Island Grill and Bar because I was on my way with my NV SO and I felt it was necessary to get a 'good' meal home for the 6 hours drive. Lucky Cow reviews mentions good vegan options here and it has hundreds of good omni reviews. Unfortunately, neither our meals were good. The exception was an outstanding secondary salad, which I would have ordered. This thing had paprika, carrots, onions, mushrooms, crumbs (not sure whether vegan), cucumbers, a quarter of tomatoes, and a sprinkle of sunflower seeds over a bed of green. Very fresh, colorful and delicious (after him and he doesn't even like salad). My meal was a tostada. I really felt confident in my order, because when I asked about vegan-friendly dishes, the server really knew what she was talking about. As I ordered the tostada, she said "without cheese", add corn. I knew I'd come here. I just expect from non-vegan restaurants. I expect my food to be unseasonal, bland, boring, etc. The worst case scenario, my expectations are fulfilled, and I am no longer affected by it. Unfortunately, today was a "catastrophe case scenario"... I ate some bits from the top at the first and, as expected, it was not seasoned cans of black beans, unconstricted corn, salad, cubed tomatoes. It seemed to be green spots on him and a dusting of something red on the whole plate. The red was paprika. Not even smoked, just paprika. It was really weird and didn't add anything to the court. I couldn't taste the green though I suspect it was meant to be cilantro. Since I have the OR6A2 gene, Cilantro STRONGLY tastes soap and since I couldn't taste it, I don't know what it was. I started taking the tortilla a bit apart and doing it in chips, basically. After a few bites of it... I noticed something brown on the plate... fried beans. I picked up the Tostada. The whole soil was covered with fried beans. Whelp, dinner is over, that was great, but no thanks. The server came by and I double checked with her that refried were not vegan, they are not, they are apologized and offered to remake it and then took it. I didn't want another one, but okay. She returned, called the person who made it an idiot, and laughed at the whole thing. Hm. I ate the corn from it and pushed it away. The second plate was missing the strange paprika garnish and the 'green stuff'. Overall, I would not recommend this place vegan."

"I accidentally left my phone on the floor, and when I went to retrieve it, I could see that the benches had not been pulled out and cleaned regularly; it was rather neglected. Management should consider regular deep cleanings if they are short on staff. On a positive note, the clam chowder we ordered was delicious, and the salads were fresh and crispy. However, the bread took about 30 minutes to arrive, just about 10 minutes before our main courses. We also ordered oysters on the half shell, which were priced at $3.50 each but were extremely small, roughly the size of a quarter (and I’m not exaggerating). Furthermore, we had to order a minimum of half a dozen. For our main courses, we chose the Seafood Astoria, priced at $25.99, which features grilled fish with crab, petite prawns, and mushrooms in a white wine cream sauce. Unfortunately, I found the sauce to be thin and lacking flavor—it tasted watered down, unlike what I usually expect. The mushrooms were undercooked, the crumbs on the plate were sparse, and the prawns were overcooked. I was disappointed, as the dish didn’t taste fresh. The seasonal vegetables were indeed fresh, but they ran out of baked carrots, so the server offered other options. I chose potatoes as a side, which were just okay—I ended up only eating a quarter of my portion. Overall, I wish the experience had been better. It’s frustrating when food doesn’t meet expectations. We didn’t want to disturb our waitress, as it wasn’t her fault, but I believe management should be aware of these issues."
