First, you line up at the entrance, then you ring the doorbell, but only once as the sign warns. You are greeted through a peekaboo window in the door where they ask your party size. You are then taken in groups of three or less to a vestibule where they lock down your phones so you can't take any pictures and then you are seated in the dark and moody atmosphere. They don't split checks, so be ready to order as a group. There's a 90 minute time limit as well, so don't dawdle. Highlights of our order included the Butter Pecan Old Fashioned (so good!) and the Banana Daiquiri. We stayed for the full 90 minutes and when we left there was a long line waiting to get in. Go early if you want to get one of the few seats inside or be prepared to wait. We loved our experience.

Cool speakeasy with good drinks in downtown Paso. As someone who doesn't love standing around and…read morewaiting, if you want to have a good time, come early, like right when they open early. I've waited in line for 30 minutes, and I've waited almost an hour and ended up leaving because people with reservations kept going in and the line wasn't moving at all. But on my most recent visit we came a few minutes after they opened, and we were in within minutes. They've gotten stricter since I first came in 2020, and they no longer allow phones/photography. You have to put your phone in a locked bag that you aren't able to open until you leave. Couldn't tell you what I drank because I wasn't able to get a picture of the menu or the drinks, and they have a big menu, but I liked all of the drinks I tried. The space is small, but they have enough seating to accommodate a variety of group sizes.

Classic rock music was being played throughout the bar as we had a quick game of pool. The place started filling up with people after we'd been there for about half an hour. Apparently Karaoke night is a big thing here for the locals, because people were stepping up to the mic and killing it!They don't serve any kind of food here, but they do allow you to bring your own food in. (There are several hole in the wall type restaurants just a few steps away from Harry's to choose from, if you like) Recommend you hit Harry's up if you're passing through or staying in town for the weekend!

One of my absolute favorites. The Oaxacan is tequila based with smoky spicy notes from the Thai chili and mezcal. I am surprised with how much I like this because I don't usually get tequila over gin, but I've caught myself getting this a few times! The bartenders are amazing here and the drinks are strong with no alcohol taste ahhh so definitely expect a fun night with their cocktails haha! Love the ambience here -- dim lighting, good music, and overall a great vibe here!

The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We have always been seated outside and love it when we are lucky enough to have a table along the creek side. The curry dishes, brussel sprouts, and ahi nachos are great to share. The outdoor seating is relaxing under the oak trees. Appears to host families with parents visiting their kids attending Cal Poly. Always a great evening.

Novo is located directly in the middle of the Main Street of SLO…read more There is a small bar seating area inside before you're lead to a back patio for dining which is lit up by sting lights and plenty of heaters. I didn't care for the lack of music outdoors because it got way too quiet when it was a small amount of people outside. I ordered the ahi nachos ($24) and added avocado ($3). I think the nachos should come with avocado but they do give a generous portion of avocado when you add it. My friend ordered the ahi crab roll and felt it lacked flavor and really needed a sauce with it. Everyone else in my party really enjoyed their dinner. I also did not care for the fact they had small appetizer plates already set up at each seat. We did not use them so the waitress took them back but now I wonder if they just stack them back up for distribution because they are "clean" or if they waste water by washing plates because they were put out. Either way, it made no sense to me and felt like it was a waste. I might go back to this place but I don't think it's anything that has a wow factor and there are other options downtown I would try next time.

We watched couples walk up to the front and walk off, so potential customers were leaving. Please make it less loud and more comfortable to hanging out! If you're on a date or with friends you actually want to talk right? It wasn't the spot for me. Some minor changes would make it a lot more fun and comfortable.

It was a bit difficult finding the restaurant itself but we finally found it and the view overlooking the area was gorgeous. We had specifically requested outdoor seating to see the sunset. However when we got our seats, we were far away from that view and instead our view was the swimming pool and people running around with their bathing suits. Not only that, but our table was misaligned so it would move side to side whenever someone places something on one side. Overall, we were very unhappy because when we made the reservation, we specified that we wanted a good view. After much discussion, the manager noticed our frustrations and we got a good seat where the sunset was. We finally sat down and ordered some dishes. We ordered the following: - crab cakes - chicken - barramundi & grilled shrimp - salmon - fillet mignon - lobster - bread & butter * *It came with bread as an appetizer. The bread was too salty and what was worse was that there was an ant that crawled on my dad's bread. When consulting the waiter about it, she jsut looked at us deadly and said, "so what do you want me to do about it?" The natural response would be to get us another bread but we just ended up sitting there for five minutes as the ant kept crawling on the bread. Overall the food was not too salty, but the lobster was a tad dry and hard while everything else was okay. The poor customer experience left us not feeling satisfied but we appreciated the managers response to the seating.
