We were blessed and were seated right away. The maitre d is so pleasant and helpful and had a great system to keep everyone organized and notified of open seats at the bar. This restaurant is on Morro Bay with a view of Morro Rock from every window that I saw, and some seating is outdoors with heaters. During the meal, people saw otters right off the dock, sea lions on the raft in the Bay and our night ended with a gorgeous sunset on the dock! The food could not have been better. The clam chowder was full of large pieces of clams and was creamy and delicious... We shared a cup... Went really well with the homemade rolls and seasoned butter! The meal was hot, beautiful and delicious! I'm picky about my scallops and I've never had better ones!! They were tender and seasoned perfectly... Sat on a bed of wild rice pilaf with grilled fresh veggies...more than I could eat... But I wanted every bite. My husband had Fish and chips and said the fish was tender and crispy... Not greasy at all. He had all he could do to finish his meal... Portions were generous. The wait staff was friendly, worked as a team and seemed happy to serve there. We will plan to come back the next time we are in the area! They even comp'ed us a piece of cheesecake to enjoy for our anniversary.... THANK YOU!

The whipped butter and warm bread are perfection and the view!

Our server also said he would come back to refill our drinks, but that never happened. I ordered an Old Fashioned, and it was honestly the worst one I've ever had. It tasted more like water with a very faint hint of whiskey. It may have been sitting at the bar long enough for the ice to melt, but either way, it was not enjoyable. The food was very basic as well. Nothing that came to our table really stood out or impressed anyone in our group. Overall, between the slow service, disappointing drinks, and average food, the experience just wasn't worth it. We won't be coming back.

Poke Nachos: The tuna itself was delicious and noticeably fresh, but the dish as a whole was a bit too greasy for my liking.

There was also parking right in front, with no line, which was convenient. I wanted something fried, but when I saw that they use canola oil, I decided to go with the salmon tacos instead. Salmon isn't exactly a local fish, but it's usually a safe bet, especially when it's fresh frozen. I got the salmon tacos, which came as two tacos on two tortillas. The salmon was topped with a little cabbage and tomato, melted cheese, and what seemed to be some onion and cilantro. They also included a small serving of salsa. Overall, they were decent, but not the best salmon tacos I've had. One thing that was a little annoying was that some of the salmon had the dark "bloodline" still attached. I usually scrape that off because I find that part of the fish more bitter and strongly flavored. That's especially awkward with tacos because you're trying to remove it from pieces of fish that are already in the taco. I've had salmon tacos elsewhere where that part had been trimmed off, so there was nothing to deal with. No bones, though. The tacos were a little pricey at just over $20 with tax, but you're in a tourist area and it's California, so that wasn't exactly surprising. They made for a decent meal, and sitting outside was pleasant.

The tendon comes from the area above the hooves. I request not to have the hoof. This is an ode and a love letter to a people and a culture that took what would have been discarded ingredients and made it phenomenal. Most other restaurants in the area only serve this on the weekend and usually reserved for Sunday, but here it is a daily staple and has become my go to dish. The tripe is cooked thoroughly and holds on to the rich flavors of the both with profound care. And the broth is unctuous and rich while steeped in the history of chilies and patience. The tendon when added in gives a greater depth and silkiness that elevates this dish even further. Of course, onion, coriander and oregano gives it the perfect herbaceous notes and balances out the richness with cool notes. This isn't just a soup, this is an experience that one has to have, that one deserves. To taste the food of a people's is to understand their strength, perseverance, their love and ultimately brings you one step closer to a cultural awakening that you didn't know that you needed.

My husband and I recently dined in at Distasio's, and unfortunately, our experience was very disappointing. We were the only customers dining in at the time, yet from the moment we were seated, we felt rushed. The waitress gave us menus, but before I could even finish ordering, she cut me off and turned to ask my husband what he wanted. The food came out quickly, which was appreciated, and overall it was decent. However, the Boston clam chowder was very watery and not enjoyable. Throughout the meal, the waitress kept coming back repeatedly, asking how everything was, which felt excessive and made us uncomfortable rather than attended to. When we asked for a dessert menu, I inquired about the spumoni ice cream. She hesitated while explaining it but said it was "the best they had." Within a minute, she brought it out. Again, while we were still eating, she kept coming back, checking on us, then quickly brought the check as if trying to rush us out. The most upsetting part of the experience happened at the end. While we were still finishing dessert, she took the receipt from us without really asking and said, "I hope you don't mind, I'll take that." As she walked away, she loudly said "WOW" and threw the tray down. The music even stopped afterward, and the whole moment made us feel extremely unwelcome and uncomfortable. Despite the service, my husband still chose to leave a tip out of kindness, but the overall experience was poor. If you don't enjoy working in customer service, it truly shows, and unfortunately, it affects your customers. read more

I'm not sure where to start. Was just passing thru and wanted some dinner before heading back to LA. The hostess sat us right away, right next to the kitchen door. We had to ask for water and napkins. The place was last decorated in the 1970's and hasn't been updated or even refreshed since. There is a distinctive odor present. The menu was unimpressive and the water looked like he hadn't bathed in weeks, so I choose the pasta with a red sauce and sausages. Food came quickly, was warm at best and was served on plastic plates, like the ones you get in your high school cafeteria. The sauce was one step below Ragu, and the brought me meatballs, I think I asked for sausage, but at this point. I just wanted to eat and leave. The topper was as I was leaving, and walking with my minor child, I bumped into a staffer and he stared me down like he wanted to start a fight... he even said "what's up?" very provocatively, WTF? I'm with my kid? Anyway, Never going back, read more

Recently I arranged a holiday party for my Cuesta swim class. There were 25 people and Mark, owner/chef, graciously accommodated our party. The food was delicious, as usual, and it was met with many compliments for the chef. I like the fact that Distasio's will accommodate a small party or huge party with no problem. I did make a reservation for this large party and made a menu (from the huge selection presented to us) to pre-order our food, just to make it easier on everyone. Mark also accommodated us with separate checks as requested by my group. Many restaurants want to charge a large party when they have a view of the bay, but not Distasio's. Thanks to all that made our day great! read more

I ordered a Sauvignon Blanc while we contemplated the menu. One couple of our party ordered pasta with shrimp or pasta with salmon.

Everything came out all at once- and no one ever came to check on us. The fish and chips were good, my ahi was nice- but the potatoes were cold and it was covered in seaweed salad I had to pick off. Later I was trying to remember why I ordered the ahi over the halibut or the mahi mahi- looking at the menu it says the ahi has blue crab wasabi mashed potatoes- so that's why I ordered it. I had shared my meal with my hubby and so I asked him if he noticed/tasted any crab on the potatoes. Neither of us did- thinking they left it out. The calamari should have been the appetizer- but everything came all at once- I would rather have skipped them at that point. Hubby had to go up to the bar to get refills- he was gone a long time. When he came back he told me that they had him leave a credit card with them when he placed the order. We weren't drinking alcohol, so this didn't seem necessary. Had I known this, I would have suggested not even staying and finding a different restaurant. Well the bartender said he lost our credit card/ but would try to find it.... um, what!!!!

Thank me later. We had not mentioned how we wanted the flat iron cooked, and I realized as it was coming out that it's done. This may not have been to my liking because flat iron should be cooked a perfect medium rare. This was cooked perfectly and seasoned with the perfect amount of salt finish. You get four sauces to try that are included with your steak but I think sauces distracts from the beef flavor and when paying for this quality of flat iron steak, I want that pure beef flavor in every bite. We had the whipped potatoes which are not the typical whipped potatoes. Trust me. We also had the honey glazed whole fresh carrots that were amazing. The portions were so large we had another complete meal from the side left overs the next day. We stayed at the hotel where the restaurant is located which is fantastic. Eat, drink, and stroll up to the room for a food coma nap! This should be on your do not miss eating list in SLO. 5 stars
